It was a beautiful Sunday morning when Joshua woke up. He rubbed his eyes and took some time to adjust his eyesight. Joshua gets out of bed, walking out of the bedroom and towards the kitchen. He started to grab ingredients for his breakfast and starts cooking. Once he finished cooking his breakfast, he starts plating his food onto the plate and takes his plate to the living room, sitting down on the couch.

He starts eating his breakfast and hummed from how delicious it tasted. After a few minutes, he finished his food and went to the kitchen to go wash his plate. He puts the now clean plate into the drying rack and walks out of the kitchen. He grabs his keys and leaves his house, he was now on his way to his local art studio.
After a 10 minute walk to the studio, he walks inside the building and towards one of the rooms that he rented out. Well more like his parents rented it out, his parents made a lot of money from their jobs and decided to help support Joshua in pursuing his dream of becoming an artist. He was very thankful for his supporting parents, it gave him a lot of motivation with some paintings.
He grabs a canvas and putting it on an easel, he went to grab a chair and sets it in front of the easel, sitting down. He picks up a paintbrush, dipping it into a blue color, then gracefully brushing the paintbrush on the blank canvas. After a few minutes, he finishes the painting and frowns.

"I'm not satisfied with it, ugh I've been unmotivated lately." Joshua says with a frustrated sigh. He stands up and puts the painting in the corner of the room.
I need motivation for a painting that can help me win the art contest I signed up for... He thought.
He sighs and walks out of the studio, he decided to go get a cup of coffee at his favorite coffee place, Rocket. It took him only five minutes to walk there, he walks inside the building.
"Hyung!" A voice called out to him. Joshua looked over towards the voice, smiling.
"Hey Wonwoo." Joshua says while walking over. "Where's Vernon and Chan?" He asks, curiously.
"Ah, they're both in the back with a new employee for training. They should be out in a bit though." says Wonwoo.
Joshua nods and looks at the menu for a few seconds before looking up at Wonwoo, "I'll just have an iced americano and I'll also take a croissant."
Wonwoo nods and goes to make the iced americano. As he was doing that, Vernon and Chan walk out and smile when they saw their hyung. "Jisoo hyung!" They said, making Joshua smile and wave.
Wonwoo places the iced americano on the counter and quickly grabs the croissant, putting it into a bag and placing it on the counter. "That'll be eight dollars and fifty cents." He says while Joshua pays.
"Thank you~." Joshua says, immediately picking up his croissant, taking a bite. "Ah I need to go get a straw." He said. As he walks further down the counter while still holding his croissant, he was about to reach for a straw until someone bumped into him, almost making him drop his croissant.
"Yah! You almost made me drop my croissant!" Joshua complained to the stranger. The stranger just turns around, his facial features were very angelic, he had a few strands of hair in his face even though his hair was short.
"Ah, sorry about that. I didn't mean to bump into you." The stranger apologized.
Meanwhile, Joshua was mesmerized by his looks and took a bite out of his croissant. The stranger's eyebrows furrowed in confusion as to why he was just staring at him for a bit.
"Excuse me?" The stranger asked.
Joshua got out of some sort of trance and looks at the stranger. "Hm? Oh sorry, I didn't mean to stare." He said and thinks that this stranger could be a model, that's when the idea hit him.
"Have you modeled before?" He asks. The stranger was taken aback from the question and shook his head.
"W-Would you like to be a model for my painting?" Joshua immediately asks.
"I don't even know who you are." says the stranger.
"I'm Hong Jisoo, also known as Joshua. I'm an aspiring artist who hopes to be famous artist one day!" He says, he looks straight into the stranger's eyes, "now you know me. What's your name?" He asked.
The stranger had widened his eyes for a second before slightly smirking, "The name is Yoon Jeonghan. Before I accept being your model, I'd like to know more information about this painting and why you chose me of all people to be the model for it."
Joshua smiles, feeling a little bit satisfied for somewhat convincing him to be interested in the idea. "Of course, let's go over to that table and talk." He said, before grabbing a straw and went back for his iced americano that Wonwoo was watching over. They both walked over to the table, sitting down in the chairs to start their unexpected meeting of the day.
