I sat down on the nearby chair after working for quite a time. I stared at the ceiling and saw a glimpse of Yves in the corner of my eye. I glanced at her making a drink for the customer and smiled.
"Stop looking at your girlfriend and do your work. Someone's waiting." a familiar voice from beside me said.
It was the manager.
"She's not my girlfriend." I responded nonchalantly
"Yeah, yeah. Now go back to work so you can rest right after."
"Yes maam."
I went back to the cash register and ordered people's drinks.
"Hi, can I get a cappuccino mocha?" the guy customer ordered.
"Okay, two of those?"
"No. Only one."
"How about your girlfriend?"
"Oh her?" he looks at the blonde short girl beside him.
"She's fine. Just one will do.""Oh.. Okay.. Take out or dine in sir?"
"Dine in please."
"Sure thing. Kindly sit at the available seats and we'll order it right away."
"Thank you." he responded after he slowly grabs his girlfriend's wrist onto their respective seats.
After making the drink, I ordered it to them right away.
"Here's your drink sir."
"Thank you."
I stopped by beside Yves as she was making a drink for the other customer.
"The guy who ordered a while ago with his girlfriend is weird." I said as I leaned back to the counter.
"How so?" Yves asked.
"He ordered one drink but there are two of them."
"Probably his girlfriend doesn't want any."
"That's weird. He's the one who answered for her."
"Are you onto something or what? You seemed highly interested on what's going on between them."
"But isn't it weird? Don't tell me you don't find it rather suspicious."
"You may be right, or wrong. Who knows, we don't know them. We might as well leave them-"
"WHAT?!" a loud shout interrupted the conversation and turned their focus on who shouted.
"ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS?!"
"Speaking of the devil, him.. He's the guy I've been suspicious about." I told Yves as we were staring at the situation.
It seems like the guy is screaming at his.. girlfriend
"WHAT THE ACTUAL FU-"
Yves ran and went to the couple's table and tried to stop him.
"Excuse me sir, you're currentl-"
"STAY THE FUCK AWAY FROM ME!"
He pushed Yves hard enough to make her fall, I came running towards Yves and helped her stand up.
"Have you lost your mind?" I calmly said.
"WHO THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU ARE!?"
"A worker here. This isn't a rage room. Don't throw your tantrum here in front of strangers.." I glanced at the girl sitting across the table. "Even to your girlfriend."
"What do you know huh?! You think you're so tough??" He slowly walked towards me and stared at me dead in the eyes.
"What's going on here?" The manager got out of her office and went to the scene after hearing the news.
"Your worker is being disrespectful maam." the guy lied and smirked at me.
"He shouted as if this café is some sort of bullshit ass rage room. He even threw a tantrum at our workers and pushed this girl infront of everyone." I nonchalantly said.
I glanced at the guy and saw his deadass face that shows 'I-just-wanna-slaughter-this-motherfucker' type of face.
"Okay sir, we would like you to step out of the café after all the ruckus you made." the manager said as she led the guy outside the café
"What do you mean?! I didn't do anything??"
"Liar, liar pants on fire. Now leave. Or we'll call the security." I raised an eyebrow and smirked as I saw his face.
I heard Yves chuckle behind me as I said those words. Was it funny?
"You know what. Fine. I'm leaving." the guy said as he grabbed his drink.
"You're bringing that? That's sweet. Enjoy your drink." I sarcastically smiled at him and again heard Yves chuckle behind me.
"Actually no. I'm leaving it here." He said as he put his drink down.
"I'm leaving you too bitch." he glanced at his.. girlfriend.
"Hey, you're the bitch one here. Don't say that to your ex."
"Yeah right. Defending her blah blah. I'm leaving. This deadass place is nothing but trash." He said as he left the café.
Everyone went silent after what happened. I couldn't believe I said all those things.
"BAHAHAH BRO- I love you for that!" Yves laughed loudly as she jokingly slapped my shoulder.
"Did I say something bad?"
"Noooo, you were fucking awesome man! I loved it"
I was happy seeing Yves smiling and laughing because of what I did.
I glanced at the blonde girl looking down who got dumped by her psycho ex and sat across her seat.
"Hey, you okay?" I asked to make sure she's doing well.
"Yeah." the girl looked up and we made an eye contact.
"Thank you." she said.
I was speechless. I didn't know what it was. It felt as if, my stomach was aching.
She glanced at Yves and said thank you to her too, Yves was glad to help her and they both smiled at each other.
"I'll take your orders, what do you want?" Yves approached us and asked the girl.
"But I don't have cash."
"I'll pay for you. Since you had to experience that, it's definitely hard to handle." Yves offered.
"T-Thanks.. I would like.. a cappuccino mocha."
"Okay, coming right up." Yves then walked out of the area.
"What's your name?" I asked.
"Chaewon. Park Chaewon." she answered.
"Nice to meet you. I'm Hyeju."
"I'm happy to meet you." she smiled at me as she said that.
