MINE ON IMPACT (TAEKOOKV) Ep02

It was mid-morning now.

Inside “Le Sucré,” an upscale bakery that smelled like sugar, butter, and fake kindness, Jungkook stood behind the counter in a too-big apron and cracked shoes.

JEON JUNGKOOK (O)

*He had just restocked the cake fridge, his hands dusted in flour, when the bell above the door jingled.*

A rich alpha couple walked in.

As he stepped forward to greet them, someone behind him yelled.

Bakery Owner (Mr. lee): “Yah, Jeon Jungkook!”

JEON JUNGKOOK (O)

*Jungkook froze instantly, turning around with his eyes wide.*

Mr. lee (storming out of the kitchen): Did you clean the delivery trays or not?!

JEON JUNGKOOK (O)

(nervously): I-I did, sir. I double-checked this morning…

Mr. lee (slamming a clipboard down): Then explain THIS!” He held up a single tray with a smudge on the corner.

JEON JUNGKOOK (O)

I-I must’ve missed that one. I’m so sorry, I’ll fix it—

Mr. lee (shouting): “Are you trying to ruin my business?! One smudge and that alpha from last week demanded a refund! Do you know how hard it is to run a bakery in this city!?”

JEON JUNGKOOK (O)

(bowing): I understand, sir, I’m really sorry—

Mr. lee (mocking): “You understand? An omega like you understands business? Don’t make me laugh.”

The customers watched silently. No one spoke up.

Mr.lee (voice cold): You’re lucky I even keep you here. Omegas are supposed to be soft and pretty. You’re barely either.

JEON JUNGKOOK (O)

*Jungkook clenched his fists at his side, eyes burning—but said nothing.*

Mr. lee “Clean the damn trays again. And if I hear one more complaint from a customer today, don’t bother showing up tomorrow.”

He walked away, muttering something under his breath.

JEON JUNGKOOK (O)

*Jungkook turned back to the counter slowly, bowing to the alpha couple*

JEON JUNGKOOK (O)

(barely above a whisper): Good morning… h-how can I help you today?

As they gave their order, Jungkook’s voice shook. But he smiled anyway. Because if he didn’t smile, he might cry.
