5:30PM-A place near Sungmin's Boutique
Eunhyuk searched for the café that Donghae mentioned in his text message this morning. She smiled as she remembered their first meeting. If not for the coffee, the won't talk to each other.
She saw a little girl crying while pointing to a lollipop that fell on the ground, beside her was a little boy scratching his head in confusion while pouting. Eunhyuk chuckled. She approached them and crouched down so she's on eye level with them.
"Why are you crying little girl?" She asked softly, she patted the little boy's head as well.
"Her lollipop fell, Hyung. I don't know how to comfort her."
Eunhyuk flashed a sweet smile, again someone mistaken her for a boy. Well, maybe I should change my style. She thought. "I'm a noona, little boy." She said as she ruffled the little boy's hair. His cheek reddened in embarrassment more so after the little girl stopped crying and started giggling upon her friend's mistake.
"I have lollipop for both of you but promise me after this you will go home right away, okay?"
"Okay, Noona." "Okay, Unnie." They said at the same time.
Eunhyuk smiled again and took the strawberry lollipops from her bag. After receiving the lollipop, the kids said goodbye to her and ran to the opposite direction. She sighed after realizing she ran out her favorite strawberry lollipop.
"Did you run out of lollipops, Eunhyuk sshi?"
Eunhyuk turned around after hearing the familiar voice that belongs to Donghae. She smiled and nodded. "But it's okay, I love kids and I can buy another next time."
"I'll buy you some. I know a good confectionary in this area. Let's go." Donghae held out his hand, waiting for Eunhyuk to hold on to it.
"It's a little bit awkward, isn't it?" Asked Eunhyuk as they walked hand in hand and a few people gave them weird stares, obviously thinking that they were two men holding hands.
"Nope. What's wrong with this?" Donghae questioned and lifted their intertwined fingers, "I hold your hand and you hold my hand, that's enough." He stated firmly and tightened his hold of her hand.
Eunhyuk couldn't help but blush after hearing his words. A few years ago she was in a serious relationship and after breaking up with her previous boyfriend, almost all of the men she knew treated her like a boy because of her appearance and behavior and now Donghae's treating her like a girl wearing frilly skirts and colorful tops, acting cute and always calling their boyfriends Oppa. She's happy that despite her appearance, Donghae still treat her like a girl because she never wanted to be like those annoying girls.
Eunhyuk's first impression of Donghae was that he has slightly weird mindset, but after their second meeting, Eunhyuk found out more about Donghae. He's actually a sweet and romantic guy but sometimes childish. He's not a sweet food lover like Eunhyuk but every time they hang out together, Donghae always brought her anything with strawberry on it or just anything sweet while he will just simply drink black coffee and sometimes accompanied by a choco-mocha mousse or a slice of coffee cake.
"We're here." He exclaimed and eagerly pushed the glass door open, entering the confectionary. Eunhyuk's brown eyes lit up in happiness after seeing rows and rows of colorful candies inside the jars lining up one side of the wall. The cakes on the display window attract the customers with their wonderful designs and artistic color combination. Chocolates didn't want to lose easily to the colorful cakes; they have it in all shapes, sizes, colors and flavors - from dark to white, from truffles to pralines.
