Taehyung stared at his friend pitifully,"It seems that you are in love, Chim."He chirped. Jimin looked at Taehyung with his tired eyes, "In love? What? That girl and I just met. And it was a horrible meeting. How can I be in love?" Jimin drank another cup of coffee like it's some sort of alcoholic drink.

Taehyung counted the number of cups of coffee that his friend drank, and it was the fourth coffee this time. He's concerned about his best friend's well-being. Taehyung cleared his throat, and pretended to arrange his invisible glasses as if he was some kind of nerd.

"Well, Jimin mi amigo, studies says that it takes a lot of months for a girl to fall in love, but for guys.. Well, it takes 0.07 seconds."Taehyung said in a nerdy voice while leaning on the counter.

Jimin raised an eyebrow at Taehyung, "Studies? And where did you get that information, Taehyung? Say Jimin is handsome if you got that information from a post in Facebook, or else you're not gonna come and sleep over at my house for a year." Taehyung pouted,"Jimin is handsome." he says, which made Jimin grin, "I know." "Just kidding."Taehyung laughed.
Jimin's smile melted into a serious one.

There was a confortable silence, and then Taehyung decided to speak up,
"How did you met that girl, Chim?"Taehyung asked,"You didn't explain it to me in details." Jimin shook his head slightly, playing with the coffee cup, "I shouldn't. She'll kill me."Jimin said, and looked at Taehyung straight in the eyes, "I'm serious."

Taehyung wondered why a stranger would kill Jimin, but he just shrugged it off, thinking that it was just one of Jimin's lame reasons not to talk about a girl he likes. Soon enough, someone entered the café. It was a nineteen year old boy wearing a black hoodie.

Taehyung entered the counter, and went beside Jimin, because another customer just entered the shop and the two of them have to do their work. "May I take your order, sir?"Jimin asked the seemingly cold customer.

"One caramel macchiato please. Large."The dude said. "Coming right up!"Taehyung smiled, and started making the order.

After Taehyung was done making the drink, Taehyung wrote the dude's name on the side of the cup, and to Jimin's shock, Taehyung didn't even ask for the dude's name. Maybe he's Taehyung's relative? Jimin thought, but no.

Jimin knew all of Taehyung's relatives, because they were that kind of best friends. This dude isn't Taehyung's classmate too, because he seemed so young, and plus, Jimin and Taehyung were classmates since Pre-Nursery. This also can't be Taehyung's neighbor, because Jimin knew that Taehyung's only neighbor is an old widowed lady without any children. So... How did Taehyung know this dude's name?

"Here's your caramel macchiato, Jungkook."Taehyung handed the drink to Jungkook, and Jungkook paid for the ordered drink. Jimin wanted to ask how Taehyung knew this dude's name, but he didn't, because he felt that he shouldn't.
This Jungkook dude went to sit on one of the vacant tables in the café.

Jimin was wiping the counter, when he heard a familiar voice, "Jin, Let's just go another café, please?" Jimin's ears went like a damn signal detector, as he looked at the person who said it.

There were three people that entered the café, one was a dude, and two were girls. One girl was hiding her face, in which Jimin got curious about. The guy went at the counter to Jimin to order,"One latte, please.. And.. How about you, Aeri?"The guy asked the rosy-cheeked girl, "Ah... Latte too..."The girl responed."How about you, Yeo-""Americano."
The girl in a black surgical mask and a hoodie that was hiding her face interrupted the dude. Jimin sensed familiarity in the voice of this masked girl.

"Okay, your order, coming right up."Jimin smiled, and began making the Americano, while Taehyung made the latte. The girls went to sit with Jungkook, and Jimin really felt that the girl in the mask is very familiar.

When Jimin was finished brewing the drink, he was about to ask the pink-haired dude what are their names, but Taehyung wrote the customers' names on each coffee, One latte was for Aeri, the other one was for Seokjin, and the Americano was for Yeoleum.

Taehyung gave the drinks to the pink-haired guy, which Jimin assumed was Seokjin, and Seokjin paid for their drinks, as he went and sat with the two girls and Jungkook. Jimin is really weirded out by his best friend now, like.. He wondered how the hell in this big green, or polluted Earth did Taehyung know their names?

"How did you know their names?"Jimin finally asked his friend, while he's leaning on the counter while Taehyung was wiping a table nearby. He was bombarded by questions in his head, that it's making his skull explode so he has to ask Taehyung about it. But Taehyung just shrugged, "Long story, Chim. And it's kinda private, so... Yeah."Taehyung said, still wiping the table.

Jimin didn't really bother that, so he just shrugged it off, and nodded, and looked at the girl in a hoodie with the black surgical mask. Jimin saw that the girl kept on stealing glances at Jimin, and then looking away after Jimin caught her looking at him.

Jimin smirked, "Are you the stranger last night?" He mumbled to himself, as if he was talking to that girl. Jimin nudged at Taehyung, "Taetae..."Jimin said, still looking at the girl, "Hm?"Taehyung asked, playing with his phone, "What does that girl look like?"Jimin asked, referring to the masked girl, "You know her, right?"

Taehyung lifted his head up from his phone to look at Yeoleum, "...oh, Yeoleum? Well... She looks scary. But not hideous scary, she just have this glare that can kill... She looked like a person that killed a lot of people."Taehyung said, and then resumed on playing with his phone. "......uh-huh. So her name is Yeoleum."Jimin nodded, still looking at Yeoleum. "But if you're asking me if she's fine, or does she look hot, I can answer your question as accurate as possible..."Taehyung said, tapping on the screen of his phone, "Yeah, Jimin. she's pretty hot." Jimin smirked, "I know."

And Jimin remembered that moment when Yeoleum just stripped in front of him. And then Jimin, being a man, imagined erotic and unnecessary sexual things. Taehyung probably noticed what his friend was thinking, so he hit Jimin with the nearest cookbook on the head to preserve the innocent side of Jimin who is slowly drifting away, "Ow!"Jimin exclaimed, rubbing his head.

Some costumers looked at them for a second, and then resumed on doing what they were doing not too long ago. "What was that for?", Jimin complained.
"Stop being too horny today, Jimin. I know you still hadn't got laid in your life but please. Not today.."Taehyung placed the cookbook back in it's place, "If looks can rape a person, Yeoleum might've lose her virginity already." A shocked expression painted Jimin's face, "....she's still one?"Jimin asked, startled. Taehyung hit Jimin with a cookbook again.

"Okay, okay.. Stop.."Jimin laughed, and Taehyung stopped hitting him with the cookbook. "Of course she is."Taehyung said. "How did you know?"Jimin wriggled his eyebrows, while Taehyung just gave him a judging look and resumed on playing the game that he was playing on his cellphone.

After a few minutes, Yeoleum and her friends left the café, and Jimin didn't even had the guts to talk to her. Jimin mentally cursed himself for that.
