~Five days after~

Yongbok's P.O.V:

God, help me and my aching muscles here.

This day was indeed heavy loaded as dozens of customers head in to our restaurant minutes after minutes. We never ran out of customers and i don't know if I should take that as a lucky opportunity or a torture.

But dang. After all, that's a bunch of wealthy people gathered altogether for a fine diner.

My body was near spent and my sweat wouldn't stop rolling out of my forehead. It's nearing the end of the day, which i am relieved for, but i still pray that the time will rotate faster.

Though honestly, I'd rather resort with this kind of exhaustion than what I've went through a week ago. This is so much better feeling. At least i would never need to throw trash anymore or do unnecessary tasks that was out of my applied job.

Thank God for bringing my idol Chef Jin back to save my ass.

Last time was definitely heavier for me because not only Chef Hui was overworking me, he also yells at me nonstop. But now, I'm relieved that there's no such noise that will replay again. It was replaced back by Chef Jin's soft voice of guidance and help.

Still, R.I.P to Chef Hui.

"You're doing great, Yongbok. Can you still move it up?" Speaking of Chef Jin, he appeared next to me as i was in the middle of plating three dishes of my pasta.

"I'm doing great, Chef. I can definitely still move it up." I giggled which he nodded for a relief. I felt his hand tapped on my back before he proceed to the other chefs.

All of us were productive at the moment. Every single limbs has to move. Sweat after sweat drips, various aroma of spices combining together. The air in the kitchen was a bit dizzying but it's a good comparison to drunken feeling of dizziness.

I looked at the clock on the wall. 6:45 pm

So close. We're finally getting there!

Y'all might be wondering for the reason of my anticipation. Well, you guys will know in a few scroll later. (A/N: Breaking the fourth wall now?)

"Royalties are already getting out. We can start fixing up the place, Chefs!" Chef Jin announced and i couldn't be any happier to hear such words rolling out of his tongue.

Anyways, Royalties are what we call to our customers. Just a smol info.

Different sounds of exhausted exhales resonated around the kitchen then all of us gathered to our respective places. When me and my four other friends reached our locker room, everyone of us almost dropped to the floor, tired and worn out.

"I can't feel my legs and arms. I'm crying for help." Yeonjun hyung dramatically wailed while giving his limbs soothing massages.

"So dramatic." Wooyoung hyung snorted, everyone of us cackled.

"Your spasming hands and legs are more dramatic, i think." Yeonjun hyung barked back, everyone howled like crazy.

"OH FOUL!"

"Shut up."

Yeonjun simply chuckled. "Whatever. I'm just glad this day is finally done."

"This day. Jesus, our most awaited day. It felt like years before coming to this day!" Said Ryujin.

"We're finally able to smell it. To feel it in our hands." Jongsung's eyes could be seen twinkling.

"MY HANDS ARE ITCHING AND I CAN'T WAIT!!" Yeonjun hyung was having a daydream.
