The thick rain pouring on the street was a calming sound and scent for you. It sings you a peaceful lullaby as the sleep doesn't seem to reach you. A cup of tea in your hand, you admire the beauty of the city from your window. The once lively and busy street on the light of the day was now empty. It was one in the morning and once again you didn't get to sleep, it happens once in a while when you are too stressed and then the next day you will sleep soundly again as if insomnia was foreign to your body.
Looking one last time out of the window you finally take the last sip of your tea and head to your bed even if it is just for looking at the ceiling.

Few hours later you wake up a bit tired by the sound of your alarm. Finding sleep near three in the morning, you got at least near three hours of sleep. You stand out of the bed to go to the bathroom next to your bedroom, you walk as fast as your lazy body allows you and open the door. After stripping from your clothes, a few yawns on the process, you get inside the shower to clean yourself.
The quick shower freshens you up and you look slightly better but still your reflection on the mirror showed you didn't get enough sleep.
"Terrible" you mumbled under your breath as you cringe at the sight. You made your way to your bedroom again to get dressed in your uniform for school. After getting dressed, you walked back in the bathroom to put some makeup on, the basics: foundation, blush, glossy lipstick and natural eye shadow and mascara to make you seem more of a human. Content with how you look like you walk in the humble apartment to go to the kitchen and grab the cereals and the bottle of milk from the fridge to eat breakfast.
You make it quickly and take your bag and phone, you get in your shoes before getting out of your apartment locking the door and walking out of the building.
As soon as you step one feet out of the building, your phone rings in your hand, you check it and a smile get its way to your features.
Jieun😊:
Yah, come quickly, the bus is going to arrive 🚌🕖
You didn't answer her text but you chuckled as you hurry your footsteps, imagining her face when she typed the text. In few minutes, you made it to the bus stop where your best friend Jieun was sitting on the bench.
"Hey" she chimed as you come in sight with a wide smile on her face.
"Morning" you greeted back with the same facial expression as hers.
Soon enough the bus was there and the both of you sat on the very back talking about all and nothing. The ride wasn't long and after ten minutes you were in front of the school gates. The both of you get to your lockers as the first destination, grabbing all you need for the first period,you close your licker still chatting with your friend about her crush who was obviously Song Kang.
"He is really handsome!" She squealed fangirling as she get her books as well, you laugh at her behavior knowing well enough that the next week, she was going to like another one.
"Yeah he is" you agreed making her smile wider as you come to sit at your usual seat on the back of the class and Jieun in front of you.
"Too loud" a goan interrupted Jieun on her story, turning to the source of the displeased voice, you giggled at the sight of your other best friend closed eyes on the desk next to yours.
"Maybe it's you who should wake up" Jieun replied with a bit of sarcasm on her obvious fake smile. Yoongi with eyes still shut face the two of you making you laugh quietly. He was so cute.
"Shut the fuck up" he stated to Jieun who just rolled her eyes but still comply with his demand, meanwhile the other boy just go back to sleep.
I wonder how I ended up with these two.
You thought while shaking your head softly at their silliness.

School ended quickly as the time seemed to go faster today. School may end but the day wasn't at its end though. Biding goodbye to your two and only friends, you make your way to the coffee shop you are working at, living alone with bills and needs leaded you this part-time job that was tiring but that you enjoyed for the last two years.
"Hey y/n you are here early" Kiyeong the waitress that had the shift before mine greeted me with a smile, that I return.
"Hi... Yeah I walk faster today" you greeted back with a smile. You excused yourself and head to the back to change your clothes and put your stuffs in the locker. You check your phone and it was five o'clock.
Time to work. Fighting.
You smile as you walk out of the changing room.
"Hello y/n" you turn around at the mention of your name to beet by the heart smile of your boss who was just four years older than you.
"Hello Mr. Jung" you bowed slightly at him with a smile.
"Please call me Hoseok, you calling me 'Mister Jung' make me seem like I'm old" he stated with a bright smile and chuckled a bit.
"Alright Hoseok-sshi... I'll get to work then" you informed him and he just nod in agreement with a smile before leaving. Another good side of this job is that everyone here is nice. You bowed a bit as he left and get to work.

You still got forty minutes before the end of your shift, Hoseok left you the shop because of some personal problems, trusting you enough to leave you alone on the coffee shop. Taking the opportunity, you grab your stuffs and begin to do your homework when there's any customers anymore.

You were too plunged in your work to remark someone who entered the coffee shop, he walk in, wandering his eyes around the shop searching for someone, until he found you. You were still focused on your math problem to remark the tall figure a few meters away from you.
He clears his throat to gain your attention which succeed. You look up at him with your pen in your mouth and a dumbfounded look on your face.
Cute. He thought seeing you like that, you quickly put the pen on the table finally getting back to earth after a minute or so as you scan his every features.
"S-sorry... I... I was doing... My homework" you mentally cursed at your stuttering self, not the kind of superficial girl to be down for looks, but you would do an exception for him, he is very very handsome.

He chuckles a bit seeing you panicking, he found it cute.
"No need to be sorry" he stated with a little grin." I just wanted a latte" he declared at you still with a small smile.
"Latte,... Of course" you hurriedly stand up and go make him his order while he sat in a table. You find yourself being clumsy as you prepared his drink.
The hell is the problem with me? He is just a customer,... But a cute oneYou shake your head not believing what you just thought, not gonna lie he had some effect on you and it was getting on your nerves because you act like a teenage girl in front of her crush: stupid.
You push those thoughts in a corner of your head as you walk to him his order on your hands.
"Thank you" he exclaimed smiling at you, you just nod with a smile unable to speak in front of him.
You look at the clock on the wall and realized that there was only five minutes left before you finished your shift. You get in the back to change your clothes.
You get back with your uniform on again as you made your way to the table you did your homework on a few minutes ago. You gather your stuffs and put it in your bag, and remark that the only customer you have left is now on the counter waiting for you, you look at him for a good minute from head to toe looking at every detail of the human being he is.
"Excuse me" his sweet voice get you back to reality as you realized that you were practically checking him out. You blushed instantly while he just smiled a bit amused by your behavior. You clear your throat nervously before walking over him and register his order.
"Thank you for coming, I hope you will come back" you manage to not stutter as hard as it was for you. Seriously what happen toe right now? You thought avoiding eye contact with him.
"I will" he said after paying for the drink still smiling kindly at you which you try to return.
"Goodbye" and with that he left. You exhale a breath that you don't know you were holding a hand on your heart.
"The hell?" You mumbled to yourself, surprised to witness how easily a stranger melts you. As if your heart have known him, it heated crazily. Little did you know you know him... Well...
