inked hearts

After the guys left, Alice worked for 6 more hours. It's already 7 O'clock and she wants to sleep. She packs up the mess she made with all the pens thinking 'how is this shop still open? Hardly anyone gets tattooed here.' But the she thought 'oh well, if boss still pays me then why do I care?'

Then she wasted a bit of time in there because she liked the last few songs played in the shop. She's not in a hurry because she has nothing better to do, nowhere better to go.

Alice pushed open the front door, there's someone standing in the dark. Alice can't see who it is clearly because her eyes needs some time to adjust from bright lights to night's darkness. She keeps on walking because whoever he is, he can't be waiting for her.
Alice was wrong.

"Um, excuse me." That person spoke. "Hi."

"Hm? Hey." Alice was a bit surprised, first time in ages talking to a guy from places other than the tattoo shop and the club.

"Hey it's me, my name is Min Yoongi. I work next door, um I make music, sorry if it's kind of annoying..." Min Yoongi introduced himself.

"Oh, hey, I'm Alice. I dated a guy in high school called Min Yoongi haha, nice to meet you."  Alice still can't see his face, she shakes his hand and gave it a tight squeeze like how her dad taught her.

"I don't remember dating an Alice though. So, can I see 'Jar of hearts'? I'm very curious about it because I'm currently working on a song, it's about similar stuff, your story inspired me in a way. I'd like to become friends with you, you hungry? I'll buy you some food." Yoongi gets straight to the topic, this girl is cool, he feels like they should be friends. They seemed similar in many ways.

Alice slightly cracked her fingers and said: "Why do I feel like you should be the hungry one? Alright, if you buy me food, let's be friends. You decided where we are going, I eat anything to be honest." Alice loves music, it would be something memorable if she helped someone to write lyrics.

"Okay get on the car and let's go." Yoongi opens the door of a black car then jumped into the driver's seat.
