Nunew's POV.

"But you can't close down the cafe .." said Nat as Mr Chen sigh.

"I am so sorry boys .. but our business isn't earning enough to pay for the rents and bills .." said Mr Chen. I then look at Nat who had a sad expression plastered on his face. I squeeze his shoulder before turning to Mr Chen.

"It's okay ... we've tried our best ... I guess this is the only way .." I said , feeling bummed out.

"Thank you , Mr Chen .. for giving us the opportunity to work with you .." I said , putting my hand together making Mr Chen pat my shoulder.

"Thank you boys , for helping out as much as possible , I'll hand you both your last paycheck before you leave .. once again .. I am sorry .." he said making me smile weakly. I look over to Nat , rubbing his back.

I took everything out from my locker , placing it in an empty box. I soon saw a picture of me and Nat when we first started working here. I grabbed it , looking down at it.

I sigh heavily , placing it into the box and soon Nat came in with his box in his hand.

"I can't believe we have to close down the cafe .." he said sadly as he plopped down onto the bench. I sat beside him , placing my hand around his shoulder.

"Everything was going so well .. I hate this .." said Nat as he hide his face on his palm , breaking down. I look at Nat , shaking my head to hold back my emotions.

"Hey .." I cooed , kneeling in front of him as I held both his wrist. He slowly look up , revealing his red bloodshot eyes as I smile reassuringly.

"Everything will be okay .. I promise ... let's just take this as a sign to work even harder for the next job we have .." I said , wiping his tears.

"But what if I can't get a job ? What if .." He asked.

"Oh come on .. who would not accept a jelly like you hm ?" I asked , pinching his cheek gently.

"You're my best friend and jelly , everything is going to be okay .." I said making him chuckle , sniffling.

"Big hug ?" I asked , opening my arms making him giggle , hugging me tightly. I sigh , rubbing his back.

"Everything will be okay .. we will be okay .." I said softly as I close my eyes , trying to hold myself back from breaking down.

- later -

I got down from my bicycle , placing it against the stand. I took my bag and my box , walking towards the door. I slide open the door with one hand , sighing heavily.

"Aow , you're home early .." I lift my head up seeing Fae as I placed the box down by the door.

"Yeah .. didn't you tell me not to come home late ?" I asked , smiling weakly. She then frown , walking over to me. She cupped my cheeks , pouting.

"Everything okay ?" She asked as I nod. I figured that I should tell Fae about work but I just wasn't ready.

"Yeah .. I am just a little tired , I am going upstairs to get some rest .." I said as I grabbed the box , walking upstairs to my room. I closed the door , placing my box aside as I plopped down on my bed. I sigh heavily as I then stare into blank space. I soon felt as if I was going to cry. I quickly look up , closing my ears as I tried holding back my tears. I bite my lips , breathing in and out slowly. It has always been my habit to close my ear and look up so that it's easier for me to hold back my tears.

After a while , I breathe in and out before grabbing my Zee pillow , looking at it.

"Everything will be okay , right ?" I asked before hugging the pillow tightly.

Later night , I didn't have the appetite to eat at all so I decided to stay in my room. I hugged my pillow tightly as my favorite song from Secret Crush played in the background. Soon there was a knock on the door making me turn as the door opened revealing Fae with a tray in her hand. I sit up , clearing my throat as she sigh , placing the tray of food down onto my desk before walking over to me.

"Can I join you ?" She asked as I then nod , moving aside slightly as she got onto the bed. I look at her as she then opened her arms.

"Come here .." she said making me chuckle before moving closer to her , placing my head on her chest as she caress my hair gently.

"Come on .. talk to your sister .. what's wrong ?" She said as I look up to her.

"You didn't come out of your room .. you even skipped dinner too .." she said.

"What's wrong hm ?" She asked as I sigh , sitting up , facing her.

"Phi .." I said.

"The cafe .. had to close down today ..." I said as she then sigh , pulling me into her embrace.

"Oh Nhu ... I am so sorry to hear that ..." she said as she caress the back of my hair gently. I hide my face on her shoulder , hugging her tightly.

"Hey .." she said , pulling away slightly as she cupped my cheeks.

"This is definitely not the end okay ? I am sure you'll be able to get a job .." she said as I smile weakly , nodding.

"And don't worry .. your one and only sister will help you find one .." she said making me chuckle. She then pulled me back into her embrace.

"Susu na .. I know this past few days has been tough for you .. but I want you to know that everything will be okay .." she said , rubbing my back.

"You'll always have my back .." she continued making me sigh in relief , melting in her comfort. After a while , she pulled away , pinching my cheek making me whine.

"Let's eat a little .. then let's find a job for you together .." she said making me nod. She got out of bed , grabbing the tray of food. She sat beside me as I grabbed the bowl of food.

"Eat slowly or else you'll choke .." she said as I look at her , smiling.

- later night -

Zee's POV.

"And let's take a 5 minute break .." said our dance instructor , P'Bird. We all then plopped down on the floor , breathing hard after an intense dance practice. I then got up , walking towards my bag. I took out my phone and soon saw a notification from the website that I joined last night. I sat down , pressing on it seeing a new post from the admin.

"Zee , let's run through your solo .." said P'Bird before I could even read the post.

"Krub." I answered , bookmarking the post before placing my phone back into my bag. I got up , walking towards P'Bird with a thought in my head.

"I wonder what the post is about this time .." I thought.
