ps. I Still Love You - Renhyuck | Book 1

04 ; 사

The pleasant scent of coffee infiltrate his nose, a calming but busy ambience he's in. Renjun walked toward the boy by the window, smiling brightly directed at him. He pulled out the stool and sat down beside the other.

"I figure a change of location wouldn't hurt, I'll treat you to coffee as well." Donghyuck told, already set with his stuff for learning. He brought along his larger-sized pencil pouch and the usual notebook he used for Mandarin specifically.

Renjun stared at Donghyuck's stationery, "Wow, you're gonna be that kid? That bring a whole supply closet to class?"

Donghyuck sassed, "I was that kid, so what?" They shared a friend-friend relationship than the standard student-teacher, normally wouldn't be this close to each other. They were more like friends whose hasn't seen each other for years than just regular friends. When and how did he even got this close to someone in the first place.

"Anyway, shall we start?" Renjun asked, placing the necessary items for his teaching. They began their lesson like many other days just in a different setting.

Studying at such a busy place like a coffee shop was a bit difficult since there's so many people talking then there's keys typing. The music was nice at least, playing songs from many genres ranging from mainstream pop music to more sophisticated classical pieces.

Luckily, Donghyuck's focus was on point. He was able to took in informations on Mandarin while being able to eavesdropped on the uncomfortably inappropriate conversation the pair of girls in the table next to his were having. Jesus christ, he was traumatized by the human imagination.

"Call whatever you like, I'll treat you for being such a great teacher." Donghyuck said as their lesson coming into an end.

"No, it's fine. You're flattering me really, you don't have to do that." Renjun replied.

Donghyuck insisted, "Renjun, I wanted to do it so I'm treating you and that's that. End of discussion, do not say anything else." Handing Renjun the menu of the many drinks this coffee shop got to offer.

Guiding his eyes down at the menu, he's not sure what he was craving at the time. Coffee or tea? Smoothie or juice? His throat was parched from teaching without a break, almost anything could do.

Haven't made up his choice yet, he gazed back at Donghyuck for answers. "What do you recommend? I'm terrible at making decisions on foods to be honest, I don't know what I want most of the times."

Donghyuck looked down at the menu, coming his contact with Renjun's skin as he leaned in to see. "How about...Apple juice since you're a basic bitch?" Donghyuck suggested.

"Wow, you really came for my ass, did you?" Renjun laughed, smacking the other on the shoulder. Donghyuck fake whined, holding his shoulder as if he's in pain.

"Fine. How about a simple mint tea with plain white milk? You like that?" Donghyuck asked. He wasn't a big tea drinker, however, he's not afraid for a change once in a while. Renjun finally made his decision, calling the waiter over to order his drink.

Renjun sipped his tea, the steams blowing in his face. "It's not that bad, eight out of ten, would try again." He told Donghyuck, the taste was a little bland but the mint scent and flavor seeped right through in a mellow manner.

Finishing their drinks, Donghyuck paid and they left that coffee shop as soon as possible. "Can we spend a little more time together? I really enjoyed your company." Donghyuck told him, holding Renjun's hand in his.

"I wish, but I'm still on working hours. Can we meet up again some other time?" Renjun checked the time on his phone, he had a lesson at ten and it's almost nine-fifty already.

Showing rather sad smile, Donghyuck only nodded. Taking that as goodbye for the two, they split ways. Donghyuck shoved his hands inside his hoodie, missing the warmth of Renjun's hands in his. He walked back to his house with a slightly defeated mood.

They known each other for about a week til now, but it felt like he had been growing feelings for Renjun? Was he moving too fast? How the hell can someone fell in love this quick? Could it be deja vu? He clearly met Renjun before somewhere. Are they...

He unlocked his door, coming inside his lonely home. Falling onto his bed, visibly troubled. He has to slow down before he scared Renjun away, these odd feelings are temporarily irrelevant to him.

But how could he pushed it away forever? Donghyuck meet Renjun every week, he study as he gazed into those pretty eyes. Renjun's reminded him of a cute, little fox. Adorable yet kind of sly. A sneaky little thing that stole his heart.

Picking up his phone, he dialed a number. After a few seconds of ringing, someone picked up. "Mom? I think I found the one." Donghyuck told.
