"Gosh, I'm late. I'm late. I'm late" You mumbled to yourself while running towards the building where you're working. You almost tripped over the rock that you didn't notice. 'Cause well, you're really making a run for it. "Uhhh, what bad luck. That stupid rock almost made me kiss the pavement."


Well, it's really your fault why you are running late. You stayed up late last night because you watched a marathon of Korean Romantic Comedy movies. You literally love them. You love them too much.


So, the result is you being late. Not only that, you also feel dizzy because you hadn't gotten much needed sleep. No wonder why your mind isn't working like it needs to. "I need you to work this time, Brain." You begged your poor brain to stay alert. 


There's a Starbucks near the Buzzfeed building. Thank heavens for that. So, as fast as lightning you came in through the coffee shop's door. It's a good thing that there isn't much people around so it won't take you too long to order and have a nice cup of coffee to kickstart and bring some good vibes to your day.


"Oooh. That's gotta be a record breaking time for ordering coffee." You said as you left. You then began to take longer and faster paces.  You glanced at your wristwatch. Boom, it read 8:15. Oh no, you're already 15 minutes late.


With a handful of papers tucked in between your arms and a cup of coffee on the other hand, you dashed the remaining distance to the building. You opened the door like crazy and dashed in. Then you bumped into something. Or someone. You spilled your coffee on his arm. "Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm really, really sorry." You apologized while running your hand up and down his arms as if to relieve any burn the hot coffee must have done.


"Oh I'm sorry."


"It's okay. I'm fine." A deep voice said. Glancing up, you came face to face with the man who you have a huge crush on.


"E-Eugene. I'm very really sorry. I didn't mean it." You said as you looked at his handsome face.


"No, it's okay. Really. I've had much worse things throwned at me." He said as he grinned. Making your knees feel like jelly.


"Thanks. As much as I'd love to stay and chat, I'm really, really late. I should get going. I'm really sorry for the trouble I caused you."


"Hey, it's totally fine. Though, if you really wanted make it up to me, why don't you agree to have lunch with me, sometimes?"


Could this be happening? You asked yourself. The man you've crushed on for such a long time is now asking you for lunch. Ooooh, the coffee had brought such good luck to your life. You've made a mental note to always get coffee in the morning. XD


"Uhm, sure." Who are you to refuse such a fine invitation anyways? You've always wanted it. Haha.


"Do you want to get my number? I know you want it." He joked while smiling.


Can he read my mind? "Hahaha. I think you want to get my number. Here it is." And with that, you exchanged phone numbers.


"Okay, bye. See you around. You should get going." Eugene said.


"Alright. See you.":) You turned your back and started to walk to the office. With an incredibly large smile on your face. Now, this is good. You must've looked so happy because upon entering the room, Ashley raised an eyebrow at you. But while smiling.


"Well, well, well. What's the reason for that big smile?" She asked.


"Oh nothing." You replied. But deep within, you feel that you had the best morning of your life.


A/N: Hope you liked it. :)
