Chapter 2: Chapter 2
I've been back at the reception desk now for about 20 minutes and Nancy has finished her cigarette break. She is not the kind of lady who I can discuss fancying a client with, and she can see my screen so I refrain from searching google for info about Mr Park for now. I go about completing my daily tasks instead waiting for her to go to lunch.
I'm filling in the upcoming weeks schedule for the recording suite and notice that he is booked in every morning from 9am until midday. My stomach flips and I make a note to myself to make sure I look my best next week. I pick up my phone and quickly type out a text to my best friend.
-Lori, have got to speak to you at lunch. Can you be available at 1? Got a story for you. X-
She is usually pretty busy, but I get a response quite quickly from her.
-Sure thing sweetie, I will call you. Should be out this meeting by then. Such a snooze fest. Nearly asleep. Lol. X-
Like clockwork, Nancy steps away from her monitor at 12pm and says she will be back in an hour. She usually goes to the staff restroom on the first floor but today disappears out the front door. I wonder where she is off too? I quickly bring up google and type in Jimin Park, let's see what we find.
"That can't be right" I think to myself, the top search item is about a South Korean woman called Jamie? But then I see a small icon in the top left hand side of the screen that just says Jimin. I click on to it and it's him. I see he is from South Korea too. It says he is in a band called BTS. That sounds familiar. Then I realise that they have recently had a single out over here called butter. It was good, and very popular, I think it went to number 1?
After a little more digging I find out he is 25, only a year older than me, has one brother and comes from a part of South Korea called Busan. I realise through my reading that in Korea they have their family name first so he is actually known as Park Jimin, but his stage name is just Jimin. I flick through some of the images of him and he looks incredible. Different hair colours, beautiful clothes and interestingly different eye colours. It seems he likes to use lenses.
I watch a few videos, with the volume low just in case anyone comes through reception and see him on stage and in music videos with his other band members, the songs are catchy, their dancing is brilliant but what gets me is his soft, high octave singing voice, a total contrast to the husky, low sound that left his mouth earlier. This all solidifies my crush and I start swooning over how sexy he looks when he moves. There is lots to be said about a man that can dance.
Nancy walks back through the main entrance and I glance at the clock on my screen. Blimey, I have been looking at all this for almost an hour! I quickly close google and pick up my bag, swapping with my colleague and fixing to walk out of the main entrance.
As I step around the crescent shaped desk I hear voices coming down the hall way and quickly realise that it's him with the boss, obviously finished with their meeting. I hesitate, wondering if I should wait to leave until he has, but I decide that no, I am going to rush to the entrance and leave before him.
I walk across the marble floor, my heels click clacking and I hear my name called out. I stop and swivel only to realise I am being summoned by Mr Nickel. I walk back towards them and ask if everything is ok and he tells me that Jimin is in the UK for a couple of months to work on a solo album and will be recording here, but would like to explore London too on the visit. I nod and glance at the K-Pop idol who is looking at me with wide eyes.
"Jimin has requested you be his tour guide Aimee" Mr Nickel says with a look in his eye that is telling me to agree. "Oh, erm, of course. If Nancy is ok covering the desk on her own whilst I'm not here that would be fine. I would love to show you the sights" I say a little breathlessly. I swallow hard at the thought of spending time with him, as i'm already in a state of panic and nervous as hell.
