Hyejin pov

"Jeongguk-shi," I called out and he immediately turned around to me, "remove your jacket," I said, he didn't question and did as told, he was wearing a black tank top with black leather pants, "Eunji-shi, don't you think it looks better without the jacket for the concept?" I asked their stylist who was standing next to me.

"Yeah, but when I joined I was told to always cover Jungkook-shi's tattoos," she answered, her voice so soft that it was almost inaudible.

She was newly appointed for them just for a month and she is so silent and tiny. I thought I was short (163cm) but she is even shorter than me, maybe 150cm something? And also very lean.

"Are you all not comfortable with showing your tattoo?" I turned to the boys who were getting ready for the shoot.

"Ex-chairman said we should not show our tattoos," Namjoon answered, "but we don't mind it," Jimin answered.

"If you are all ok with it, then I don't mind, your fans are very curious about your tattoos and their response so far is positive, so it's okay," I said.

Jungkook's eyes lit up. As far as I know, only Jungkook, Jimin and Hoseok have tattoos, and Hoseok's tattoo looks like a couple tattoo that people started assuming things which the artist and label didn't talk about until it died down.

"We are planning on getting friendship tattoos, is that ok?" Taehyung asked excitedly, "as long as you don't tattoo your forehead or something, then it's fine," I chuckled, "but don't go overboard with it, I still want you all to maintain a proper reputation among people," I warned.

"So can I get an eyebrow and lip piercing?" Jungkook asked, his voice timid, I thought for a moment, "first use fake ones and see how people take it," I instructed and walked away.

I was free this afternoon, so I came to their photoshoot to keep an eye on Jimin as I mentioned earlier.

That man was flirting with his make-up artist, my PA whom I appointed as his manager and when I entered, he passed me a wink and carried on with his make-up.

But he didn't touch any of them, it's all just winks, sly smiles and his words that left them a blushing mess.

"How is it working here?" I asked Eunji who was arranging the clothes' rack while the shoot carried on.

She stopped her work and turned to me, "Hyejin-shi," she bowed her head a little, "it's good," she gave me a smile that didn't reach her eyes.

"Then would you like to continue here after a month?" I asked, her smile fell, her face became unreadable, "I don't want to work in the entertainment industry," she answered.

Ara had told me about this, I have heard a lot about Eunji from Ara, but never met her, this is my first time meeting her, "I thought you would have changed your mind," I chuckled, "Ara told me how she had to force you here for a month," I added.

"She didn't exactly force me, I didn't want to in the beginning, but later when she told me it's just for a month, I agreed," she said.

"You are doing this as a way of paying back for what she did for you, isn't it?" I asked, a soft smile on my lips, her eyes widened a little, "Ara is my best friend, I know about you both," I said.

"I see," she nodded.

"You know, Ara was the one who sent me to talk to you," I said, she looked shocked at the information, "she is worried about you, she feels guilty about the fight you had in the beach house, but she sent you here so that you would learn new things and gain experience," I said.
