Love Me Again

Chapter 3

★.•✧⁠*๑.⁠｡.♡•✧*.•★

7 in the morning. Miki was walking towards the coffee shop. The first day of her job and she needed to be there as early as she could. While walking she couldn't help but feel a bit weird about the owner of the coffee shop.

He's bit strange.. why would he tell me his real name in our first meeting? I'm not even a friend or something.

While walking, Miki looked around taking in the surroundings of her new town. It was early in the morning, there weren't people around which felt so relaxing and comfortable to Miki.

Everything was pretty. The birds, the street cats following her around, the cold relaxing morning breeze. Everything was pretty relaxing. But, something was a bit off.

My Heart.

Miki mumbled. Why it was her heart that feels heavy? why she feels like something's wrong?.

She finally realized what was it. The morning wind, the light blue bright sky, the birds. Everything, everything reminded her of her past. How she used to go for morning walks with Heeseung before going to school together.

Damn. Heeseung really made her feel like she was loved.

Miki quickly shook those thoughts away and reached the coffee shop. She opened the door and greeted everyone there, the employees and workers.

She walked behind the counter and greeted the barista.

"Good morning, Miki."

The barista greeted.

"Morning  Jino."

Miki replied and stood beside him. Jino was the barista she first met and talked to when she first came in the coffee shop. Although Jino was the age of the owner, mid 20s , but still Jino was a good friend and helper to Miki.

They both started setting up the coffee maker and other things.

"How's the owner?", Casually asked Jino, while working.

"The owner?... you mean Mr. Hwan?"

Jino was suddenly shocked and impressed.

Hwan? so he introduced her by his real name?.

"So..He told you his real name huh?" Jino said and smiled to himself. Miki was a bit confused but nodded. "Yeah.. is that wrong?", asked Miki. "Nope. It's just.. well, Hwan rarely introduces himself to others by his real name."

"Then why me?" Miki asked nonchalantly while setting up the coffee machine.

"Who knows." Jino shrugged.

"He finally found her."

Jino mumbled under his breath and walked away. Miki couldn't hear him clearly so she just stood there all confused for a while before starting her work and focusing on it.

later that day, it was almost evening and Miki's duty was over for the day. Customers were leaving and soon the whole coffee shop was empty. She was wrapping up the stuff  when suddenly the door opened and the sweet doorbell hung up on the doorframe, rang.

A well suited man, messy wavey hair yet so attractive, neat outfit and with a beautiful and handsome smile, came in.

"h-hello Mr. Hwan.", Miki bowed and greeted him.

Why is he here at this time?.

Hwan smiled and walked towards the counter.

Miki and Jino immediately bowed to him and greeted him.

"good evening Mr. Hwan", Miki greeted.

Hwan gave her a little smile in return.

"Make me medium sized latte." Hwan ordered.

"I'll make it!" Jino appeared from behind. Hwan raised an eyebrow at him. "I ordered Miki not you, Jino."

"But it's not my job. My job is to only take orders I don't work in the kitchen-" Miki was about to end her sentence but Hwan cut her words.

"Now you will tell me what your job is and what's not?!" he raised his voice.

He didn't want to...

Jino was about to say something on Miki's behalf but Miki spoke up. "I.. I'm sorry, Mr. Hwan. I'll bring you your order. Take a seat."

After some time, Miki served him his order and also served waffle with vanilla ice cream separately.

"I didn't ask for it." Hwan coldly said.

"It's an apology." Miki mumbled.

Damn cutie.

He cleared his throat, "Weird. Did you make it?"

"Yes."

"I can tell by how ruined it looks."

what does he think he is? Miki thought.

"Anyway... Come, sit. I need to talk to you about something."

"Important.", he added.

What it could be?

Miki nodded and hesitantly sat on the chair Infront of him, the table being the only thing between them.
