==========================

Morning has come.

Sun has risen, sunlight all warm and not harsh with birds chirping while flying and trees swaying in the cool wind. Clouds floating up in the sky, over the busy cities and skyscrapers.

Lots of people start their day ahead, most specifically workers and students who left their home early to work and study. Either using a vehicle, a transportation, or they just walk on their own to their destination if their workplace or school is somewhere near their home.

But before leaving, of course, they have to fill in their empty stomach with delicious breakfast to give them an energy to go out and begin their usual routine.

And what drink that gives them more energy than just breakfast?

You guessed it, Coffee!

Most adults and adolescents drink coffee in the morning to wake themselves up from their drowsiness, so they could have enough energy to go to work. Because of that, coffee lovers existed in every country you go, they make coffee in the morning, noon, and even at night!

And it's concerning to know that some people even drink coffee in the middle of the night...

Anyway, going back to the story.

In South Korea, you can see a lot of coffee shops in every corner. Koreans do love coffee and it really shows how many coffee shops open in each region, you can even see your favorite idol's selcas with a cup of coffee in front of them or in their hold.

And that, a certain solo idol, who absolutely love coffee like the others, decided to open a coffee shop of her own. She, at first, doubts it because she's always busy with her packed schedules and occupied with her idol activities, but after speaking her thoughts about this to her younger sister, she decided to make her own coffee business.

Because her sister have decided to be the barista in her coffee shop while she works as an idol.

A jingle of keys can be heard from a person who just arrived to a newly opened coffee shop, it's actually been two weeks since this one is open and the business turns out to be good at the end. Today is the start of the third week, the person walk up to the entrance door, detaching the clip of the keys from one of her belt loops of her pants and brought it up to a locked door knob.

Once she unlocks it, she enter herself inside the shop, turning on the lights inside to give the interior a soft and cozy atmosphere. She took a smell of the place, the aroma of strong coffee hits her nose before she exhales out the air.

She walk inside the counter, preparing everything as the café will soon open for the customers. Bringing out the coffee bean bags, turning on the coffee equipments, checking the pastries and desserts on display cabinets, setting the chairs and table, and place the money of the shop in the cash register.

She take a glance at the clock hanging on the cream white wall, showing to her that it's 7:55 in the morning, five more minutes and the cafeteria will be open.

She sighs and sat down on a bar stool, her leg bouncing anxiously while she waits for her two friends to arrive in the shop.

Yes, she doesn't work alone.

During her college days, she mentioned to her friends that she will be working as a barista in her sister's coffee shop soon after she graduate. Both of them are happy for her that she already find a job after their graduation because finding one is actually difficult, specially if your career job is hard to find somewhere in your country or the place you lived in.
