Jeonghyeon aka The Doctor chose to pick a table near the window. He sit there quietly and entertain himself by browsing through his phone while wait for his order. Zhang Hao who's preparing his order monitoring the tall male from the corner of his eyes. The Chinese boy still didn't believe at his first day at work he immediately met with the Doctor. Surprisingly, turns out he's quite friendly.

Zhang Hao was taken a bit when he asked him his name. Zhang Hao notice how Jeonghyeon eyes soften when he introduce himself, how he showed his gentle smile. He switched his cold gaze to a warm gaze in front of the violinist, as if he try to hit on him.

"Get hold on yourself Hao!"

The Chinese boy slap his own left cheek, he should focus on delivering Jeonghyeon order and not day dreaming about him. He takes a deep breath try to focus on what cakes he should bring to Jeonghyeon. The Doctor order 5 slice of new menus, he gives Zhang Hao freedom to choose it for him.

Zhang Hao has been staring at the cake display for full 5 minutes, having hard time to pick the first cake. Finally Mr. Yoseob comes out from the kitchen with big tray of cakes on his hands.

"Oh, there's a customer here?" He asked Zhang Hao while putting down the tray on the counter.

"It's the Doctor. He asked me to recommend him 5 slice of our new cakes. Could you please help me. I'm too nervous to choose" Zhang Hao whisper with pleading eyes.

"That's the Doctor?" Mr. Yoseob gasp, looking back and forth between the young male sitting near the window and Zhang Hao who is crouching behind the display counter, "That's how he looked like?" continue Mr. Yoseob.

"You never seen his face?" ask Zhang Hao surprised.

Mr. Yoseob join the Chinese boy crouching beside him and answer the question by whispering.

"No, this is my first time. He always came with face mask, hoodie or hat so I never see his full face. Also he always buy for take outs, never dine in. This is all new for him" whisper Mr. Yoseob baffled.

"Ugh, what should I do? Now I'm more nervous to serve him" whine Zhang Hao.

"Calm down Hao. I'll help you pick the menus. He's suppose to be not a picky eater since he never give complaints" Mr. Yoseob begin to help the violinist by choosing cakes for their infamous customer.

Mr. Yoseob then continue plating the cakes beautifully, he even makes extra effort by decorating the cakes with edible flower petals. When all five cakes are ready he hand the serving tray to Zhang Hao.

The Chinese boy gulp when stepping out of the counter section, moving his way to Jeonghyeon table. He peek one last time to his boss who encouraging him with posing "fighting" in silence.

"Sorry to make you wait" say Zhang Hao timidly when he arrived at the table.

Jeonghyeon raised his eyes from his phone to meet Zhang Hao eyes. He automatically smile when their eyes meet.

"No worries, I have time. I'm on my break" he answer.

The Violinist begin to carefully put each plate of cakes on the table. Five plates sure is a big order for dessert cafe, the plates are filling the small table leaving no room for Zhang Hao to put the utensils.

"This is a lot of cakes. Will you able to finish it alone?" Zhang Hao unconsciously slipping out his comment.

Jeonghyeon laugh at his innocent comment, "Apparently yes, I will easily finish this by myself. I'm a big fan of desserts especially cakes. I know your boss named me as the Dessert Monster" smile Jeonghyeon.
