i giggled a little. oh my god i'm going to a cafe with terazono keita.

anthonny looked at me as if i was crazy. "uh, akari, are you okay?" 

i smacked him on the arm and then shoved my phone in his face. reading it, he seemed mildly impressed. "wow, akari pulling in less than a month, never thought i'd live to see the day." 

i smacked him again. "anyway, i have an hour- oh shit the cafe is twenty minutes away, never mind. i have forty minutes to make sure i look good. oh my god i am a mess."

anthonny rolled his eyes again. "girl, keita doesn't focus on your looks that much. yeah, it was your face that attracted him, but if he disliked your personality, you'd go straight to the top of his do not interact list. take a chill pill already and dress simple."

"HOW THE HELL DID YOU KNOW WHAT I WAS THINKING??"

"first, i'm your twin brother. and i've known keita for three years now, so i know his behavioural pattern. well, sort of. if you're going to put on makeup, just a bit of light makeup will do, okay? go simple and easy. and just be yourself."

i swear, sometimes my brother is so wise and mature that it's annoying. i give him a hug, then run into my room. "alright, thanks!"

i take his advice and go simple. i pick a plain white t-shirt with a pair of jeans. i grab my phone, a pack of tissues, a small water bottle and my wallet and place them in a small bag. then i put my hair up into a neat high ponytail. slinging my bag over my shoulder, i walked out of the room. "how is it?"

anthonny looked up from his phone. "hey, it's nice. i told you." 

i smile gratefully at him. "thanks, anthonny. bye!" i put on my sneakers and then went out of the door. before i closed the door, anthonny gave me a thumbs up and a wink.

when i arrive, keita is already standing at the entrance, waving me over. "hey, akari." he says with a smile. he's wearing a black t-shirt and jeans. i smile back and him and half-jog over to him. 

"hey, akari. let's go in." he tilts his head towards the door.

"hello, and welcome to like coffee!" a familiar voice rings out.

"HAI! HELLO OH MY GOD I DIDN'T EXPECT YOU TO BE HERE-" i greet her with a hug. she chuckles and brushes me off. "i have to work- oh hi, keita. anyway, have a good time! i'll talk to you later!" she gives me a knowing grin before walking into the staff-only area.

ugh, how can someone be so nice and so annoying at the same time.

"hey, let's sit over there." keita's voice breaks me out of my thoughts. "sure." i smile at him and we go over to sit at an empty table. then, i feel a soft vibration in my bag. i take it out and see a text from sung hanbin.
