The city of seoul. A place where dreams come true. A place for new beginnings. Were young people from all around south korea and other countries come to achieve their goals and have a better life.

But.

Aside from that it is the home to one of the most biggest south korean companies, and the one that stands on the top of them all is the kim co.

A brand that produces multiple everyday appliances and have many clubs, bar, hotels and restaurants under its control, it runs charities and partially have some contract based government education institutes on its list of company possessions as well as a clothing line of it's own.

The main office of the said company is located in the most posh areas of the seoul city. People from the outside always wonder what it is like to work in this amazing company, must be so hard and tiring, with no time to play around or go home proba-

"Rock......paper.....scissors!!"

"Rock!!!, I won bitches!!!!" Lia shouted as she won for the second time, while others just groaned in frustration.

"Lia, we are not having bulgogi for lunch again!!!" Luna shouted at the girl who pouted in return.

"Yeah let's order pizza please please please please please please please please please please please pleaseeeeeeeeee" beomgyu said while showing his puppy eyes to lia who put her hand on beomgyu's puppy eyes to stop the manipulation.

"No!! I want bulgogi!!!" Lia said stubbornly.

"Y'all know we can all just order what ever we want 'separately' " Jimin said coming inside the shared office of the CEO's secretary team. Yes, this is the secretary team of the CEO of kim co. And yes the CEO has formed a whole team of secretary cause of so many things that needs to be handled and one person wasn't enough.

The roles are divided perfectly among all of the team members as follows~

The office princess~ Choi Jisu aka lia- head of the marketing team, financial management secretary of Mr. Kim. 26 years-old.

A math prodigy yet a total baby, a bratty kid when she wants something. Obsessed with bulgogi and beomgyu's checks.

The diva~ Shin Yuna aka yuna- head of the clothing line of the kim co., event management secretary of Mr. Kim. 25 years-old.

The pretty girl with a graceful nature hence the name but her real crackhead nature is only known to her boss and close co-workers.

The Medusa~ Shin Ryujin aka ryujin- head of the club & field department, field management secretary of Mr. Kim. 25 years-old.

A beautiful and independent woman, normally calm and composed, but is as cold as ice, interns often become stone when they make eye contact with her hence the name.

The office clown~ Choi Beomgyu aka beomie or beomgyu- head of the online management & gaming department, online affairs secretary of Mr. Kim. 24 years-old.

The good boi~ Choi Soobin aka Soobin- head of the charity & government managing department, secretary of social services to Mr. Kim. 25 years-old.

A pure, honest boy. A follower of rules and extremely professional "while working".

Prince charming~ Huening Kai aka kai- head of the supply & product department, product management secretary of Mr. Kim. 24 years-old.

A good worker with great social skills, his charm works on everyone who crosses paths with him hence the name.

Last but definitely not least-

The Eros~ Park Jimin aka Jimin- personal secretary of Mr. Kim. 26 years-old.

The hot and sexy secretary of the boss with dripping sex appeal that not only women but make even men in the office

weak on their knees. Hence the name.

These 7 are called the CEOS 7 aka "Chosen. Employees. Of. Sir kim (Sajang-nim)", But working staff like to call them the "Chaotic. Employees. Of. Sir kim (Sajang-nim)". Which is true... they are chaotic...

"I'm the one incharge here!!!"

"But pink and orange will look good!!"

"NO, it will not!! What are you a kindergartener???"

"Atleast I'm not a oldie like you!!"

"ENOUGH!!!" Both lia and yuna stopped when Mr. Kim yelled at last.

"We are here to discuss the venue decor not fight over the colors!" Mr. Kim said calmly but the hint of warning was present in his tone for the two girls, on both his side.

"As for lia, you are not to give suggestions on the decor it's not your job. Yuna I trust your judgment but if you keep acting childish I'll get someone else to do it!"

"Now go back to your work, tomorrow you all are to be ready by 6 am sharp, don't be late, and finish your work before you leave, sort out all the pending stuff."

Beomgyu raises his hand like a school boy asking for permission to speak from his teacher.

"Yes, beomgyu. What is it?" Mr. Kim said, exhaling deeply as beomgyu is once again not in a formal attire for the meeting , but his bear hoodie with small ears at the end of the hood.

"Why are we arranging a professional venue for a birthday party?"

"It's because it's president lee's only son's birthday party were all the most famous and popular businessman and women are coming to and he wants the best people to arrange it, meaning us. Besides it's a good opportunity for us to make business proposals to busy businessman that mostly don't have time for separate meetings." Mr. Kim explains thoroughly. Making everyone else in the room nod in understanding.

"If you don't have any more questions, you may live, You are dismissed." Mr. Kim said watching everyone leave the meeting room right after except his personal secretary Park Jimin.

"So...you're really going to ask Jisoo to work with you?" Jimin said picking up the paper work on the table.

"I can't avoid her forever Jimin... it wasn't her fault.. in fact I can't bring my personal problems in my professional matters, we need to be introduce in the market before we lunch our first office in U.S and right now her company is the most popular one there." Mr. Kim said nonchalantly.

"Besides....it doesn't matter anymore..." Mr. Kim said looking away with teary eyes.

"Oh Taehyung....." Jimin sighed after seeing the tears on his friends eyes once again.

"It's not like...I can turn back time..."

"Taehyung please....it's been years-"

"I don't know Chim....it just still hurts...so much-" Mr. kim or Taehyung said trying to blink back the tears.

"I know....but you have to move on...he told you so himself-" Jimin said trying to convince the now black haired male but got cut off mid sentence.

"I tried!!! Okay?? I did...but it o-only made it worse...." Taehyung shouted at first but lowered his voice as the sad reality came back to him.

Jimin frowned. This won't do taehyung needs a detox before leaving for America tomorrow or he'll be depressed throughout the whole trip. He needs to do something. He thinks then smiles when he gets an idea.

"You know what? Let's go clubbing tonight, yeah?" Jimin asked trying to lighten the mood of the other.

"I guess....but we won't stay for long we have a flight to catch tomorrow. " Taehyung said sighing, getting up to go to his cabin to work.

It was 8 pm when everyone was done with their work and have left to go home and rest. But the two bestfriends were on their way to get some drinks to ease the night.

Jimin pulled his car at the parking lot of the Estelle club & bar.

They got out and made their way in, they didn't need ID since they fucking own this place. Yeah it's one of the clubs by kim co.

As taehyung and Jimin went inside, they were immediately met with strong smell of alcohol, the place was packed with people dancing on the floor some fucking on the walls in the corner, some were sitting near the bar drinking with friends. It was hard to see anything at all cause the place was dark the yet colorful with beautiful neon lights.

"TAEHYUNG???" A voice shouted over the music to get the now black haired man's attention, who turned around to see his brother pushing his way through the dancing crowd.

"NAMJOON HYUNG?? WHY ARE YOU HERE???" Taehyung shouted over the music at namjoon who was now in front of him.

"I- LET'S TALK SOMEWHERE ELSE! IT'S TOO LOUD HERE!!" Saying that namjoon and Taehyung went towards one of the VIP booths were seokjin was conversing with some of his work colleagues.

Upon seeing the younger seokjin jumped up from his seat and threw himself at taehyung who stumbled from the impact but chuckled and hugged the older man.

"Taehyung-ah!!!! It's been so long since I saw you!!!! Aigoo~ you look so thin..you should eat more or I'll tell Abeoji!!" Seokjin said in a warning tone to the younger, who just rolled his eyes at him, shaking his head. He could hear Jimin giggling at the interaction.

"Hyung, you say that every time we met, I'm perfectly fine don't worry." Taehyung said looking at silver band on seokjin's finger, smiling happily at the older.

"Yeah!! As you future brother in law it's my job!! YOU better start taking care of yourself or I'll come to your house and make you!!!" Seokjin said making his eyes big in warning.

"Fine!fine! Anyway why are you guys here??" Taehyung asked looking back and forth to namjoon and seokjin who just smiled.

"We're here for our office engagement party" namjoon answered pulling Jin towards him planting a soft kiss, hearing Taehyung and Jimin make gaging noises at the public display of affection. Namjoon and seokjin only glared at the two, before pulling them to sit with them and their colleagues.

The whole night went by, as planned Jimin and Taehyung had some drinks then left to go home with smiles on their faces.

Anyone who saw taehyung right now would think, he's the happiest guy in the world with that smile on his face. But the moment he stepped in to the confinement of his big empty apartment, his safe space, his smile falters as he slides down the door pulling his knees toward his chest. As silent tears fell from his eyes like waterfall.

Taehyung was happy for his brother, he was getting married to the love of his life, he was dating Jin since high school and now their going to be bonded forever in a matrimony.

But

Seeing their love blossoming like a beautiful daisy in a bright sunnyday, only reminds him of his withering rose of a love that has lived and died long ago in the cold winter that is their fate.

He doesn't know how to forget, but then maybe he doesn't want to...

He has tried. But it almost seems impossible.

He wants to be happy again, but how do you do it? Noone teaches you. There is no tutorial to get over your first love, only love.

Especially taehyung who doesn't know how to express himself cause nobody taught him how to.

With each tear a memory slipped it way into his mind, coming in as warm and happy, turning into cold and sad.

It crazy how much that one month of June, five years ago changed him. For the better or worse he doesn't know.

He slowly stood up from the floor, when his tears stopped falling as his emotions toned out and a dull numb feeling settle in like it has been for countless nights for five years.

He made his way to his bedroom, opening the door to and dragging his feet to the bedside drawers. He stood there watching the closed drawer, before opening it reveal his treasure...

A framed photo of him and jungkook on their first date, the Polaroid of Jungkook he took secretly on the day of Jungkook's natural photography class, the silk tie Jungkook forgot to take on after the party, and lastly the letter.......

He took it out, reading it once again, before pulling it to his chest.

"I'm sorry....I tried kook... I really did but I can't....I can't replace you..." Taehyung whispered softly to himself. Remembering all the times to tried dating but back away from the thought of the younger. It seems as if he wasn't capable of loving anyone other them the younger, and maybe that was true. Taehyung remembers how he never believed in love until that one fateful month.

Before passing out on his bed after the mental breakdown, one thought seem to bother him the most knowing it's possible...

"I wonder if you were able to replace me........"

California, U.S.A

The summers of California are a must-go-to-beach season. Many young and old, people go to the beach to relax and have a good time.

Yet there was a beautiful young boy sitting at the Café near the beach supposedly wait for someone, sipping what seems to be lemon iced tea, looking out the window towards the sea as the waves come to shore then break and go back in a continuous motion, when someone barge into the café, almost tripping on the clean floor.

"I'm so sorry!! Kook- I swear it was my mom!!she-" the boy said frantically trying to explain his delay to the waiting boy who raised his one hand stopping him from continuing.

"It's ok Jongsuk. I wasn't waiting for long" Jungkook said calmly.

(Jongsuk)

"I'm so sorry though...." Jongsuk pouted looking down.

Jungkook smiled gently at the boy before reaching out and patting his hair gently.

"Aigoo.. are you sulking?" Jungkook said amused at his boyfriend's behavior.

"But I promised we'll have coffee together, then go to the movies and now we don't even have time to talk" Jongsuk said in his broken korean mixed with English, a common result of living abroad for so long.

"Relax, I told you not to expect so much on our first official date." Jungkook said sipping his lemon ice tea, looking out the window at the sea.

"Still!! I wanted it to be prefect" Jongsuk complained, grumbling something under his breath, about him giving his mom an ear full for making him late. Jungkook checked his watch and sipping a final gulp of his cold drink before standing up.

"The movie's about to start, let's go" Jungkook said walking upto the entrance of the café paying for his drink at the cashier, before leaving, followed by Jongsuk.

Time went by, the movie ended in late afternoon, that the two went for some food before stroll through the park talking, finally the couple was now walking by the beach, watching the sunset. Suddenly Jongsuk held Jungkook's hand, stopping him and making him look at him.

The orange and yellow rays of the setting sun glowing behind Jungkook, making him look more angelic than he already was. A beautiful halo was on Jungkook's head, Atleast that's what it seemed like to Jongsuk, he was mesmerized by the beauty of the younger and kept wondering how did he got so lucky of having a chance with someone like Jungkook, he was so lost in his own thoughts, almost forgot what he wanted to say, until Jungkook poked his left cheek to get his attention back to reality.

"What?" Jungkook asked raising a brow at Jongsuk who shook his head and blink his eyes to focus back on him.

"Nothing-no- actually I want to ask something...." Jongsuk said getting nervous about what he's about to say as Jungkook nodded as a reply.
