Hearing the sounds of people loudly talking and eating with their friends, Yunju took a deep breath and began working.

Working behind the counter, she took order after order, drink after drink. It was the lunch rush on a Saturday and unfortunately for Yunju, her shift just started.

She made her way through orders carefully so as to not mess up drinks, seeing as she was still a little new to this job. The line of customers and lunch rush had finally calmed down, giving her a chance to breathe once again.

She began to clean up a little until she heard the bell from the door go off and she made her way to the counter, glancing down at the tablet at the counter, halfway paying attention.

"Good afternoon, may I take your order?"

"Well, well, well, if it isn't Park Yunju," she heard from a very familiar voice.

Looking up, shocked and annoyed, she saw Heeseung there smirking at her with his arms crossed.

"Are you freaking kidding me right now Deer Boy?" She groaned quietly, rolling her eyes.

"Ah language, think of the children that are present here," he warned, holding his hand up.

"The only child here is you. What are you doing here?"

"Oh well, I was just in the neighborhood, and saw this café, so I decided to get something here. But imagine my surprise when I found out that you of all people worked here," he smiled

"Please just order and leave," she pleaded.

"No, I think I'll take my time and enjoy myself in this wonderful café, so be a dear and make me an espresso," he ordered, "oh I'd like a few desserts if you don't mind."

Heeseung began to point to the many desserts he wanted, making Yunju take some then put some back. Until he finally settled on a slice of cake, he went to sit down somewhere and wait for his drink.

Yunju begrudgingly made his drink, but she refused to bring it over to him until one of her coworkers made her.

She made her way to his table while he watched her smirk on his face.

"Here sir, your espresso," she offered it out to him.

"You can't possibly expect me to reach out to grab that with my arms, do you?" He asked, looking tired. She placed a cup down on the table for him, resisting the urge to throw the hot drink in his face.

"Is there milk in this? Could you bring me a small cup of milk?" He asked, tilting his head to the side.

"Asshole," she murmured.

"Sorry, what was that?"

"I said right away sir," she put on a fake smile and went to get his milk.

On her way there and back she had reached her limit and decided to get back at him. So just before she handed him the small cup of milk, she "accidentally" tripped over her own feet.

Spilling the milk all over Heeseung. "What the hell!" He shouted, gaining attention from those in the café left from the lunch rush and Yunju's other coworkers. Yunju faked a worried look and voiced to make her spill seem more believable.

"Oh no sir are you alright? I'm so sorry!" Yunju panicked, rushing to the counter to grab some napkins and hiding her smile.

She quickly ran back over and started wiping the milk off of him. "You did that on purpose!" He whispered-yelled.

"What reason would I have to do that?" She whispered back, close to his ear.

+++++++

After taking some time to clean up some of the milk, Yunju's manager came over to formally apologize to Heeseung. with Yunju.

"We apologize for what happened here today. I hope you will forgive her, she was just recently hired so she's still new at this." He explained sounding apologetic.

He bowed his head and made sure Yunju did so too.

"Sir I want to apologize again, I really do hope you forgive," she asked, getting closer to him.

' Please you could detect that sarcasm from a mile away'. Heeseung thought, rolling his eyes.

"It's fine, seeing as she's still new I understand these things happen," the boy smiled at her manager. "Well I should be leaving now," he waved them goodbye but stuck his tongue out at Yunju which she reciprocated.

After he had left, Yunju returned to the counter satisfied with what she had done.

"Are you serious Yunju?" Her manager questioned angrily.

"What I slipped!" The girl responded innocently.

"We both know you didn't slip, you shouldn't do that to customers just because they annoy you," he explained. "That probably ruined his whole day!"

"Oh trust me he's fine,"

"You say that like you know him,"

"I do, for like 12 years. And an accidental milk spill won't ruin his day," she explained, "But it sure did make mine," she whispered that last part so as to not get in further trouble.

Her manager looked down and sighed, "Just don't do that again," he warned

"Of course sir."
