A few days later. Friday. Kyungsoo's POV.

I wipe the table top clean, constantly checking up on Hyeri and SaeRyung who was too busy talking about the preparation for the upcoming contest. Speaking of it, there's only three more days left before it happens. "That's SaeRyung for you, hardworking and handsome." I roll my eyes, continuing to clean and ignore what Chanyeol had said just now.

"Aren't you suppose to be assisting the people outside the cafe?" Chanyeol wave his hand, pretending not to hear what I said. "Come on, don't be so bossy. It is my break after all." "Well break or not, you should still keep an eye out for any customers wanting service. Since Hyeri is busy, it's up to the both of us to keep this cafe strictly organized. Got it?"

Chanyeol yawns, "So anyway, aren't you the least bit suspicious of what they're talking about over there?" I plant a palm on my face, seeing as though that no matter how much I scold Chanyeol for his behaviour, there really is no way to penetrate that thick skull of his. "For the last time, I am not jealous of them being together. And likewise, I don't care about what they're talking over there so give it a break, Chanyeol."

"Hmph, you're so boring, Kyungsoo. You're just letting some guy just waltz inside and talk to a beautiful woman who happens to be your wife. I mean, there's bound to happen to the both of them if this keeps up." "Oh please, Chanyeol. SaeRyung can't possibly do that." Chanyeol displays a wide smile, "So instead of saying 'I don't care.' You say something that would calm your nerves down, huh."

My eyebrow twitch, slapping his leg with my clean towel. "Just shut up and go back to work." "Hehe, yes boss!" Before heading upstairs, I was greeted unexpectedly by Hyeri who pulled me back. "What, oh, it's just you. What do you want?" I said, flicking her forehead. "I was going to ask if you could go out for tonight once the shop is closed!"

I raise a brow, "What? Why? Wait.. Don't tell me you invited him over to the house." Hyeri's cheek reddens with excitement of the thought in her head. "T-That is if you allowed it though! If not then I could always just go over to his house and--" "No!" I yelled at her face. A few people stray their eyes from their activity and stared right at us.

I straighten my back, coughing. "I mean, no." What the hell was that just now. Why the hell was I so annoyed at the fact that she was going to visit SaeRyung's house. Though, I am one hundred percent certain that SaeRyung isn't going to touch Hyeri. Wait, hold on, why am I even concerned about what happens with her anyway?!

"Huh? Why not? Don't be such an old man!" She fire back. "W-What do you mean old man! And what do you mean why not? I'm your husband!" The two of us directed our attention at one another, reddening up as we both recall what I've just said. Hyeri turns her back on me, "S-Stupid! Don't yell it out loud! It's embarrassing!"

I wanted to comment, but she was right. It really was embarrassing, especially to the people of the cafe who started clapping when I said that. The moment they did, Hyeri went back to SaeRyung who seemed to have enjoyed the words that came out from my mouth. I flick my stare at Chanyeol who was started cheering from the outside. Thankful that the glass was able to keep his noise away.

Closing Time. Sowon Cafe. Kyungsoo's POV.

"Here." I said, blocking her means of the wash room. She stares at me dumbfound, "What, what's this?" Hyeri lifts the key I just gave her, looking at me weirdly. I place my jacket on, "It's the house key. You did say that he was going to visit the house, right--" "Thank you! Thank you, Kyungsoo! Really, thank you!!" She said, jumping onto me as she gave me a big bear hug.

My cheeks burst with pinkish circles, placing her down. "Y-Yah! Don't do that, it's a-annoying..!" She kisses the key, placing it inside her pocket. "Come back after an hour is done, okay?" I had already turned my back on her, but agreed with a hand gesturing so. I met up with Chanyeol who watched from the outside, he makes a distraught look. "Are you sure about leaving her alone with SaeRyung.. in your house?"
