"Seungminnn, wake upppp." Hands shook my shoulders roughly. Opening my eyes, Hyunjin was baring his teeth at me from his kneeling position next to my bed.
"What?" I mumbled, pushing his face away and pulling my covers up higher .
"You overslept and missed class dummy."
My eyes widened, and I was immediately awake, sitting up. "What do you mean I missed class?" I looked at my clock. "Why didn't u wake me up?! "

My roommate shrugged . That annoying shrug. "You're normally so prompt to lectures we assumed there was a reason you weren't coming."
Rolling my eyes, I tossed the bed covers back and got up from my bed. "Did anything important even happen?" I asked, opening my wardrobe and picking out an outfit.
"Not really. Oh, wait there was something give me a sec I wrote it down..."

Of course he couldn't even remember. "There it is." He looked back up at me as I took out my converse. "We've got a new assignment. Take a pic and edit it using the inspo'wonders of the world'."
Which button-down shirt? "Okay, seems easy enough. How much of our final grade?"
"Three quarters."
"Umm... What!?" My head snapped round to Hyunjin on my bed, giving me a nonchalant look.
"Yep. We've got a few weeks to submit it, so no rush."

"No rush? No rush?!" I was on the verge of an anxious spiral. As usual when it came to photography assignments. So, Hyunjin was quick to put a barricade in my tracks.
"Hey, hey. Seungmin it's fine. Go take a hot bath and go somewhere. Somewhere relaxing, I don't know. But don't have a panic attack here that's my thing."
"... Fine."'go somewhere' wasn't the best advice, but I'd already had an idea for a location. My peaceful place.

'안녕카피느' had been my special place since uni started-so about three years ago. I found it when I got lost on the way to meeting up with my friend Chris, and made a note to come back when I could. It was great there. Soft music, brown colour scheme, friendly clerk-it really couldn't get much better.

I walked in and waved at Sam, who was cleaning the front counter. She waved back, asking
"What's up, Sky?" She nodded at the camera I grasped in my right hand. "You gonna take some pictures?"
I shook my head. "Nope, not today. I'm just going to look through some things I already have on here, and I needed some peace and quiet."
"Makes sense. So, you're gonna order anything?" A movement to my right caught my eye. There was someone on one of the window couches, a girl I assumed, looking at their phone.
"Uh, the usual." I murmured, still staring at them.
"Coming right up."

They were... cute. Unlike most girls I'd seen here in LA. They had a dark cocoa skin tone, with wide thin-framed glasses and black hair tied up in a hazardous bun. They wore a red UCLA hoodie and black jeans. They went to UCLA as well? I almost didn't believe it. There's no way I would've walked past someone like them and not remembered.
Someone that... pretty.

I turned around to my drink in front of me on the desk, Sam giving me a suspicious look.
"She's new. Just showed up today and said she was looking for a quiet place." I blushed. She new I'd been staring . Taking my drink, I muttered a thanks and turned to choose a seat.

It was a no brainer that I sat on the couch behind them. Turning on my camera, I flicked through the photos I'd snapped on to the cafe. None of them were good enough, none even remotely capturing'wonders of the world' .
Setting my camera on the coffee table, I took a deep breath as I fisted my cup.
"So, do you come here often?"
