"Park Haneul, 23. nice to meet you" short information about herself and she stop there.  Avoiding every eyes that still glued on her. For the first time in her twenty three of her life this the first time she ever been in  group of friend, last she could remember is when she's in seventh grade. The last time she remembers she had a friend before.

The guy in sweatshirt nodded and give her unamused look, taking a seat beside the girls with brown hair. Wrapped his arm around her shoulder.

"I'm jay, Park Jonseong. But I'm more like to be called jay. 23.  Short of introduction, I'm a surgeon. Just work day and night like how every doctor do." Jay spoke with calm tone, before went to kitchen and comeback with a cup of glass filled with water. Approaching haneul and pass it to her.

Gladly accept the glass and hold it, playing with the glass that could distract her. "Not missing the part when you own the hospital too. The good and incredible surgeon" the other guy starts.

Interrupt the conversation between haneul and jay.

As the guy smirk teasingly to jay who's giving him the annoying look. "I don't to brag, it's just unnecessary." He excuses himself and give haneul smile.

"sunghoon, Park Sunghoon. 23. The second top of being a good surgeon and a heart catcher among the guy in hospital. You probably interested to hear more from me." The guy list, proudly lean back and continue to talk about his life as surgeon.

"Enough will you!" Said the girl as she hit sunghoon shoulder lightly, causing him to rolls his eyes at her and run his hand through his hair.

The two girls then walk toward haneul, as they told the two guy that beside haneul to scoot away so they can sit with haneul in between them. Guess who gets more nervous when the two gorgeous girl approach her?

Haneul.

"I'm Kim Soo Ah , we have the same age. I work as fashion designer. Nice to meet you haneul" Soo ah smiles, gently hold her hands. The other one start and tap her shoulder, taking her attention from Soo ah.

"I'm Song Ryeon, 23. I work as an architecture. Nice to meet you haneul". Ryeon did the same like how Soo Ah did to Haneul just now.

"Don't be awkward, we just basically always like this.." Soo Ah assured her again. As they three continue to talk about their life again.

Little did they know that after letting haneul heard their short information about themselves makes her feel small all of sudden. She couldn't even finished her study, and she even ended up in the small cafe across the street. She feels insecure to be in the same room with educated people like them. Two surgeons, one fashion designer, one more is architecture.

Damn, she be thinking about what she'll be now if she ever start working hard and stop depends on her grandma before. Maybe by now she already in her place where she wants to be instead of small cafe.

Just employee.

Now she feels like dumb to be with smart kids.

"What about you? What did you do for living haneul?" Ryeon asked, tilting her head in curiosity.

"Small cafe across the street."

She wish she could spit that word out, but the feeling of getting judge just eat her up all at once. She never been this nervous before but now she does.

"I'm a worker, barista. I work on a small cafe across the street. Nothing big" she chuckled awkward and scratch the back of her neck. Couldn't stand the tension she had now.
