"it's a wrap for today! thank you for your hard work!"
mingyu smiled as he packed his bag, putting his camera into his bag hurriedly.
"mingyu, are you free right now? may i have a talk with you?" woozi shouted as he ran to him.
"형, i'm kind of in a hurry right now so let's talk about it later okay?"
"wait! i just wanㅡ"
but before woozi could even finish his sentence, mingyu had already ran out of the door in a hurry.
"this kid.."
°。°。°。°。°。°。°。゜。°。°。°。
mingyu ran into the cafe, hoping to be able to catch a particular presence that he had saw yesterday.
being the 'smart' person he was, he had figured that if he were to come to the cafe at the exact same time the stranger had walked in, he might be able to see him.
as he ordered a peppermint mocha, he quickly grabbed the seat nearest to the door. he looked around the cafe, and as expected, he saw the stranger sitting on the exact seat as yesterday. and just like yesterday, he was sipping on a white chocolate mocha.
the only difference was that he was reading a different book today.
"me before you.." mingyu whispered as he squinted his eyes, desperately trying to read out the title. he smiled to himself when he successfully managed to do so, and took note of the title, determined to read the book when he goes to the library.
mingyu chuckled to himself at his misery. he had yet to even get to know the stranger, but he had already started to change because of him. he had used to hate books to the core, and refused to readㅡ no, even touch them. he would always whined and claimed that he might die if he were to walk into a library or look at a book, and even self-diagnosed himself as one with bibliophobia.
but obviously right now,his dislike towards books had somehow dissipated, because of someone.
sometimes, he would wonder if he was doing it right, if it was all worth it for a stranger..
a complete stranger.
he was not very sure, to be honest. he was confused, puzzled about what he truly wants.
he was eager though, eager to search for the answers, the answers from his heart.
but all he need was one glance at the stranger for him to know the answers.
he was indeed worth it.
despite mingyu's lack of sleep and extreme fatigue from a photoshoot, he still managed to not feel cranky.
"wow, it's indeed amazing how impactful one can do to you... after like a day?" the voice inside mingyu's head claimed.
"c- coffee." the waitress said, putting the cup on the table before walking off.
he muttered a word of thanks as he picked up the cup to sip on the coffee. he then quickly took out his camera from his bag and turned it on.
click!
and there he was again, taking pictures of the figure sitting at the corner of the cafe.
he smiled to himself after a while, as he continued to take pictures of the stranger. he probably had over 1000 pictures of the stranger.
he remembered last night when woozi had shouted at him because of this. you see, because of the overwhelming amount of pictures mingyu had took of the stranger, it had filled up the memory storage. and this had led to mingyu having to waste time to put in another memory storage card during the photoshoot, to woozi's disappointment.
and when woozi had demanded him to delete some of the pictures and lessen the pictures taken, he had refused stubbornly. he did not get it though.. why would he delete? woozi would never understand the meaning behind these "stupid pictures".
woozi never understood love anyways.
these pictures were like an antique, you see? they were too unique and precious to be deleted. deleting those pictures were like deleting a part of mingyu's life; he was unable to do so.
mingyu looked through the pictures he took for the day. he smiled as he looked from one picture to another. he bet, if he were to show the pictures he took to woozi, woozi would certainly understand why he did not want to delete them.
he was sure, that those pictures will stay by his side,
forever.
and as he put down his camera, he looked out of the window.
he glanced at the old couple who stood outside the bakery opposite the cafe. they were looking at each other lovingly. he wondered if he and the stranger would be like the old couple too, in love and happy.
and with all his heart, he hoped and prayed that one day it would happen..
he then looked away from the window with a shaking heart.
