As soon the judo lesson ended,I said my goodbye to Arin and grab a cab to my new part time job.

It will be my first day and even though I've told Arin that I'm not nervous,A tiny bit of nervousness was building inside me while thinking of it.

Back at home,When I told my parents that I will be quitting judo classes,My mom was very happy after hearing my decision. However dad wasn't. After the dinner,He secretly came in my room and asked why did i quit my classes.

"Is it because of us,Lisa?" He asked,his eyebrows furrowing and I shook my head, denying his suspicion.

"No dad!" I smiled and tucked my arms with his "I just wanted to take a break from it. After all my exams are near and I will not be able to concentrate on my studies"

He gave me a doubtful look and slowly asked "Are you telling the truth?" His eyes were fixed at me and I felt so guilty while lying to him.

I forced a smile "Yes,dad! I'm telling the truth!"

After a moment of silence,He finally sighed"

I didn't want to lie to him but it was for the best. I didn't want to give them extra matter to worry about. Dad has done enough for me and get scolded by mom. So this time,I'll do it on my own. So if the time comes when mom find out about my part time job,She cannot be able to say anything to dad.

I blinked away the tears when I realised that I was already infront of the cafe. I paid the cab driver and finally get off to embrace the new job of my life.

I took a deep breathe before I entered the cafe, jiggling the bell at the top as I walked in.

As expected, The other part time worker were all welcoming and helped me understand about the whole work. They told me every single details of what to do and what to not and I got to work very soon.

Most of the customers were college students or we can say teenagers. The cafe was popular among young people so most of them were teenagers and it gets quite overwhelming to serve their tables as they were also of my age.

Luckily,No one gave me any hard time until a certain someone walked in the cafe.

Jeon Jungkook.

What the heck was he doing here!?

The familiar figure stepped inside the cafe however he was alone. His friends are always around him so when I saw him alone,I was a little surprised.

However it was not the time to watch or wonder why was he alone and not with his friends because if he ever saw me here,working my ass off as a part time worker,He will surely try to ridicule me or tell everyone about it.

So the solution?

Hide.

I quickly turned my head and faced my back to his while serving the order to a table. He didn't notice anything as he walk past me. However I couldn't help but to feel goosebumps as his hands almost touched mine.

So this is how a thief feel after running away from the police.

I carefully returned to the kitchen and gave a sigh of relief.However it didn't last long when one of the worker handed me a plate of sandwiches and said "For table number 23" and before I could tell her no,She was already gone.

"Please don't be his table!" I prayed inside my heart as I walked out from the kitchen to try my luck.

Luckily,It worked.

It wasn't his table.

"Thank God!" I muttered under my breath as I walk past him and served the sandwiches to the table number 23.
