"Is it too hard to recognize someone precious in your life?
My mind say it's hard to define, but my heart knows what is longing for."

"How long should I wait?
How much should I take?
All I want you is....
To remember me."

A story...
Son Chaeyoung, a 22 year old boy who lives alone in his condo. A former singer, rapper at the same time, yes, a dancer. But that was before. He has a childhood bestfriend, Yoo Jeongyeon. He's been friends with Momo and Dahyun too. He's also have a cousin named Tzuyu. He and his cousin were working as a part time to their own cafe, but managing by Chaeyoung's sister, Jihyo. Their parents had been busy at other businesses since they were just a kid. But Jihyo never thought her parents that bad, she just understand that all they've done is just for the both of them. Unlike Chaeyoung, he's not in good terms especially to his father. That's why he chose to live alone by himself.
"Chaeyoung, please come back to our house. I'm so lonely." Jihyo said as she looking at her brother in the counter, making a cup of coffee. She knew her brother can't stop her to convince even it will be thousand times.
"Noona, you're not lonely. I knew you have a boyfriend named Kang Daniel and please stop convincing me to go back in that haunted house." Chaeyoung said as he reached and give the coffee to her sister.
"Tsk, you're bad." Jihyo replied.
"I'm just stating the fact." Chaeyoung said as he turn off the machine.
"Ooh smells nice, you're a good barista now huh? See? That's the reason why I'm forcing you to go back and live with us, you'll only just making me a good coffee when you're here in the cafe." really pouting at her brother.
"You know the reason why, right? I hate to see dad. I feel like i'm suffocating. And, the most reason is..."
"Still looking for her?" Jihyo cut him off.
"Chaeyoung, please stop your madness. You don't even know where she is. She just left you without any words. Wake up!" she yelled at her brother.
She knows her words may hurt her brother but it is too painful to see her brother hoping for a person who can't even back to him. She witnessed all those traumatic nightmares of his brother because of that girl. She can't even let that happen again.
"I don't want to argue with you, Noona. I guess this is a bad timing having me here again." Chaeyoung said as he took off his apron and put on the top of the counter. He get his backpack on the locker and get out of the cafe.
Tzuyu on the other hand, see the two having a misunderstandings. He talk to the other staff to take his work and go to Jihyo. He saw her crying. He get his handkerchief out of his pocket and gave it to Jihyo.
"He's not even listening to me now. I just don't want him having a false hope again. I don't want him to become miserable because of that girl. " still crying saying to Tzuyu.
"You know Noona, you can't even fight a person who's madly in love. Chaeyoung still looking that love that made him more crazy but i know its pure and true. He just can't move on without having any answers to his questions. And that girl, Mina, can answer all those." Tzuyu said as he hugged Jihyo.
Chaeyoung walk a bit faster because of the argument with his sister Jihyo. He didn't intend to hurt her sister, but damn, he don't want to hear any nonsense accusations for the one he love. He knows himself that he's being a hopeless guy, waiting for a girl from nowhere. Its been 2 years, but all his prayers is to find Mina. He even surrendered his dreams just to find her but no trace of her at all.
While having a walk, he saw an arcade shop. He went inside of it. He looks around and roam and sit for a while. Deep inside, he remember Mina as a good player when it comes to arcade or just in any games.

He get coins and bought some tokens to play.
"Okay, let's play. Let free ourselves from negativities " Chaeyoung said in his mind while putting up the tokens. He play the Street Fighter 2, then goes to PacMan and etc. until no tokens left. He decided to buy some time there just to ease himself from remembering those times with Mina.
"Uhmm girls, I think I have to go now, my manager said I need to meet her and talk about my next project." Sana said to Mina and Momo.
"Oh yeah, go now. It's getting too late. Be with her Momo, Sana is clumsy as ever whenever she's in a hurry." Mina said as she teasing Sana. The latter just stick out her tongue and tease the former.
"You'll be alright? I mean, I can drove you home Mina." Momo worriedly said.
"Yep, I can take care of myself. It's not I'm going to lost my way going home Momo. I' ll be alright promise. Now, go." she slightly pushed the two and waved her hand as she bid good byes. Momo still looking at her eyes waiting for an assurance. Mina just smile and nod as the answer to Momo's worried face.
"Jeez, this Momo was just like my mom. Hahaha. " Mina chuckled. She open up her phone and shocked by the messages from her driver. She almost forgot that her driver is waiting for her. She just replied that she don't want to go home yet and her driver can go now without her. But the driver refuses but Mina assured she will go home by exactly 8pm. The driver finally agreed. Mina continue to walk along the road when see saw the arcade shop.
"Oh, Game Champ? " she said. "It seems so familiar to me somehow. Okay, I'll play." She excitedly went inside. After buying tokens, she play all the arcade games there. When suddenly someone grabbed her right hand.
"Excuse me, who are you? Please let go my hand!" Mina yelled at the boy who stares at her eyes. She didn't even know why he's just standing there holding her right hand. Their eyes met.
"Mina...."
