This is the third time Y/n asked Jeongwoo who was standing in front of the counter. Usually the young man only orders hot chocolate plus caramel, marshmallow and his favorite dessert, strawberry powder puffs. But this time he only wants hot chocolate without sugar!
Before this, Jeongwoo's 'cute' and sweet menu choices made her feel weird, but the drink the man asked for this time, which excluded the sweet taste, doubled Y/n's weird feeling.
"Yeah, that's right. I just want a hot chocolate. Without sugar," he replied with a smile.
Unintentionally he smiled too much. It felt pricking on his gums. He frowned in pain.
'What's wrong with Jeongwoo today?' Y/n thought when she noticed the change in Jeongwoo's face.
From earlier Y/n could sense that something was wrong. She asks Jeongwoo to sit at the table first while she prepares the hot chocolate.
Fresh milk is taken out of the refrigerator. After ensuring the correct measurement, the milk is cooked at a temperature of 60 degrees Celsius. She added two spoons of chocolate flour and mixed it until it thickened.
Then poured into a mug that has been heated. Followed by another layer of milk foam. Lastly, draw a beautiful pattern on the surface using chocolate syrup. And it's ready!
Y/n is satisfied with the results of her work. She put the bottle of chocolate syrup back on the shelf. Before delivering the drinks to Jeongwoo's table, Crystal suddenly stepped in.
Y/n looked at her older sister who looked elegant in a black dress. That is the special appearance of Crystal when going through the Ritual course.

"Jeongwoo's orders?"
"Yes" answered Y/n while nodding.
She eyed Crystal up and down.
"Wasn't the event last week? Is there another one today?" asked Y/n.
Every night of the full moon, Crystal will participate in activities organized by the Ritual Club. The club is specifically for anyone who wants to socialize in this field. Crystal is one of the club members. She also learned divination and meditation techniques.
"Umm... no. There's a little problem during meditation. I want to see the master. I want to ask her a few question," answered Crystal.
She spontaneously reached for the mug of hot chocolate that Y/n was holding. Y/n was dumbfounded.
"Let me send it. For now, don't get too close to Jeongwoo, okay," whispered Crystal.
"Okay," replied Y/n understand what her sister meant. Although she was surprised by Crystal's actions, Y/n just agreed to avoid any tension between her and her sister. Just then she remembered, yesterday Crystal advised her to stay away from Jeongwoo.
