However, Hoshi and Wonwoo's interview was interrupted by Mingyu and Vernon bursting through the cafe door. "No, I'm serious! I think I can backflip off this table!" Vernon said.

"I don't think you can - wait, oh my god, is Hoshi on a date?!" Mingyu whisper shouted at Vernon, expect both Wonwoo and Hoshi could hear them.

"NO!" Hoshi and Wonwoo said at the same time.

"Mingyu, I have a boyfriend. You know this!" Hoshi said, rolling his eyes.

"Okay - so what's going on here?" Vernon asked, sitting in the chair next to them.

"I think - I'm getting interviewed?" Wonwoo said in confusion as Hoshi nodded.

Thankfully, right at that moment, Seungcheol returned. "What is going on up here?" He asked. "And Hoshi, aren't you supposed to be working?"

"Ah, perfect timing!" Hoshi jumped up from the chair. "I was just in the middle of interviewing someone!" Hoshi said before turning to Wonwoo. "This is our manager!" He added.

"You're the manager?" Wonwoo asked in shock as Seungcheol nodded.

"Yeah, I know it's a bit odd to see a 18 year old manager." Seungcheol chuckled as he held out his manager I.D. "And my apologies for these 3. None of them ACTUALLY work here." Seungcheol added.

"Wait, you don't work here?" Wonwoo asked, turning to Hoshi.

"Not really, I took this shift for $20." Hoshi shrugged as Seungcheol cleared this throat loudly.

"What he means to say is, this is my roommate, and I needed an extra set of hands around here for the day since one of my workers called out sick." Seungcheol explained.

"So, you were wanting to work here?" Seungcheol asked as Wonwoo nodded. "Okay then, let's talk." Seungcheol nodded as he motinoed for Hoshi to move so he could sit down.

"Are you really making puppy dog eyes at him?" Vernon gawked as he caught Mingyu staring at Wonwoo for the 3rd time.

"What! He's cute!" Mingyu shrugged.

"You are so weird." Vernon sighed.

"Say the 15 year old turtle." Mingyu fired back as Vernon gasped.

"That didn't even make sense, and I still feel offended!" Vernon said.

"So did you hire him?" Hoshi asked as he and Seungcheol drove home that evening.

"Yeah I did, he was desperatly looking for work." Seungcheol said. "His house burned down so he and his mom are living in a one bedroom apartment with his grandparents." He added.

"Damn really?" Hoshi said, the gears already turning in his head.
