Chapter Six

Kyungsoo fixed his hair in front of his mirror. He also glanced at his outfit. He was wearing a simple white shirt and that damned ripped jeans that Baekhyun helped him purchased in the mall. He checked himself at side view, front view, and back view.

“Perfect!” Baekhyun exclaimed who was in his house to help him fix himself this afternoon. “You look like a model citizen of this country, Soo. I told you, you just need a few fixes here and there and your hidden handsomeness will appear.”

“Oh, come on. Stop flattering me too much.” Kyungsoo almost rolled his eyes.

“Alright.” Baekhyun grinned. “Kidding aside, friend, you are really handsome. I don’t know why you chose to show off in public just now.”

“Maybe because today is the only time that I have a reason to show off.”

“Right.” Baekhyun turned away from him. “It’s always Chanyeol, Chanyeol, and Chanyeol. He’s so unlucky.”

He just ignored Baekhyun. What only matters is that he is happy with every single penny that he spent just to buy the ripped jeans that he is wearing for this special day.

He’s almost outside his home when he saw that the skies are turning gray. He picked up an umbrella and his copy of the third Harry Potter book that he finished reading a few years ago. His mind is set on going to just one destination: Viva Polo.

He’s on his way to the café and he’s getting attention from men and women alike. His neighbors all gave him positive reactions on his new look today.

“Wow, Kyungsoo. Where are you going? You are dressed up today.”

“Your jeans are so pretty. Where did you buy that, Kyungsoo?”

“Kyungsoo, do you want me to accompany you?”

He just smiled at them. With a calmer heart, he made his way to Viva Polo.

When he entered the café, he saw that the people inside had the same reaction on his neighbors who saw him on his way here. He looked around to search for the person whom he wants to see. He immediately saw Chanyeol, but the man has his back on him and he was doing something behind the counter. But Kyungsoo didn’t falter. He went to the counter and placed his order.

“One large café latte please.” He purposefully made his voice louder to get Chanyeol’s attention.

But nothing happened. Chanyeol is still immersed with the thing that he is reading.

“Kyungsoo, let me carry your order to your table.” It was Heechul, one of the playboys in their neighborhood.

“No, thank you.”

When the cashier took his order, he looked at a vacant table with an obvious frown on his face. When he was able to get one, he dropped his thick book on the table and it made a loud noise. He immediately looked behind the counter. His heart made a victorious cheer when Chanyeol looked at him. He smiled at the man, and then sat down. He crossed his legs and sipped his coffee. A few customers entered the café after a few minutes. Kyungsoo wants to protest because it was Chanyeol who took their orders and placed it on their tables.

Chanyeol passed by his table when he made his way back to the counter. Because the space was a bit cramped, Kyungsoo had to uncross his legs so that Chanyeol can walk through. But the taller man accidentally stepped on his feet. If Chanyeol weren’t able to place his hand on Kyungsoo’s legs, he might’ve fallen on the floor.

“Ouch…” While Chanyeol is standing up, Kyungsoo can’t help but notice Chanyeol appreciatively looking at him. “Sorry!”

Kyungsoo felt something was soothing his ego the way Chanyeol stare at him. All his ill feelings went down the drain just like that.
