It was a morning and the sky was crying.
She woke up with the cold breeze due to the pouring rain. After fixing herself and changing her clothes, she grabbed her purse and laptop with her before going to the coffee shop where she usually grabs her morning breakfast.
Rain is her favorite. It gives her comfort and the atmosphere where it is a great time to read books, listen to music, and drink her favorite coffee.
Sweet Night by Kim Taehyung is playing at her earphones. A perfect song to play during a rainy morning. It just gives her the perfect vibe.
She entered the coffee shop and smiled at the lady in the counter that's waiting for her.
" The usual " she said. The lady smiled at her.
While she was waiting for her coffee, he entered the store.
" Chandra! " the lady said and with a smile, she stood up to get her drink.
On her way back to her seat, a guy was rushing through and of course like how the clichè movies happen, they bumped into each other.
The world slows down. In their ring finger, an unexistent red string appears.
" Miss, look at what you did. " he said to her with a grumpy face. His white shirt was stained by the coffee she love.
" Excuse me! It's your fault! Kung hindi ka nagmamadali, edi sana walang coffee stain 'yang polo mo. " she said.
" Miss, I don't time for arguments. Just pay for my shirt or wash it until the stain is no longer visible. Plus, redo my papers! " he stormed out.
He ruined her perfect morning. And she hates him for it.
She just sighed. She have no time for arguments. Just like him. Even though she wants to ask him why would she do it even if it was really his fault, she just don't want make it a big deal.
It will just ruined her morning more.
" Ate, isa pa nga pong usual ko. " she said to the lady in the counter that just watched the whole scene.
Which is really her fault.
" Ate, the usual din po. " he said to the lady.
After they had their coffee in their hands, they sat across to each other. She opened her laptop and retype everything in his paper.
" I should be reading my favorite novel in this morning if you are not rushing in. " she started the conversation.
" And I should be peacefully reviewing my notes for the upcoming quiz. Just work faster. We still have a long morning to go. " he said and took a sip of his coffee.
The lady watches them with a wide smile on her face.
That is how things began in them.
