It has been a month and three days since coming to Korea. It's been a month and two days since that rain incident whoever that person was. It was once again time to go grocery shopping. I slid out of my warm bed and headed for a shower. Once dried off, I changed into today's outfit which was a blush semi-sheer wrap cardigan, with blue skinnies, a floral tank top, and my beige flat ballerinas shoes. One last look and I was out the door with my purse, phone, wallet, charger, and headphones. Let's hope today, there is no rain, that would suck.

Before heading to the grocery store, I stopped by the cafe to get a Iced Coconut Milk Mocha Macchiato and a Double-Smoked Bacon, Cheddar, and Egg sandwich. I noticed a young man looking at me from across the cafe. He looked as if he was studying me. I averted my attention to my phone. I started checking my Facebook to see if there was anything new. I noticed a girl who works here at the cafe was walking towards me with a drink.

"This is for you." she said.

"But, I didn't order anything else." I said confused.

"Complimentary from the young man over whose been staring at you." she said smiling.

"Well, that was nice of him, tell him thank you." I said smiling back.

"I will do so, have a good day." I said as I watched her walk over to the man and told him, he smiled. 

His smile was big and it seemed that he liked buying a drink for me. We locked eyes, I raised my drink, smiled, and nodded to him. He did the same back to me. I noticed five other guys joined around him, they were laughing and talking. I finished my drinks and my food. I walked to the counter and asked the same young lady what his order was. She told me it was a Iced White Chocolate Mocha. I smiled. 

"To thank him again before I leave, I'd like to buy him another one of those." I said smiling, and she smiled back nodding her head.

"That will be 6.25, cash or card?" she asked.

"Cash and can you put 'thanks' on the cup with a sharpie?" I asked.

"Sure thing and have a good day." she said smiling.

"You too!" I said walking out.

She was the same girl that had ran into on the rainy day. I bought her a drink to say sorry about what happened that day. The young cafe employee took the drink over to her, they talked. The employee came over to me.

"She says thank you." she said smiling and I smiled back.

I looked at her and she looked at me, we made eye contact. She raised her drink, smiled, and nodded her head as a way of saying 'thank you' herself. I returned the gesture as well. After she started drinking and eating again, the rest of the group came walking in and over to. We were laughing and talking but I noticed her at the counter, smiling and nodding, she pulled some cash out and handed it to the lady. When the lady tried to give her the change, she shook head and pushed it towards the girl. She then walked out as the lady was coming over to us.

"This is for you Mister Yongguk." she said smiling.

"Thank you." I said as the guys looked at me, I read the words 'thank you' on the cup and smiled.

"Oo, who is from?" Zelo asked.

"Someone. I repaid them for spilling their coffee one day." I said smiling.

"Oh okay." Jongup said.

"Mhm." I said drinking it.
