"yes, yes. good morning to you too.." mingyu said before pausing for a moment, ordering a cup of peppermint mocha.
"yes, yes you were speaking..." he continued as he waited patiently for the person on the other line to speak.
holding a phone on one hand and a book on the other, he walked over to the familiar seat near to the door. placing the book on the table and his camera bag on the seat next to him, he continued talking to the recipient.
today was one of the days when mingyu was supposed to be busy..
"supposed to be"
but despite his hectic schedule for the day, he had decided to take a trip to the cafe for a "short break with his favourite coffee", as he had claimed to his colleagues.
but of course, it was not entirely the reason why he was willing to walk for 30 minutes under the hot sun to the cafe.
and as he continued talking on the phone, he stole quick glances at the familiar presence opposite of him.
he smiled as the stranger sipped on his usual, reading the same book mingyu had saw the other day. per usual, he took his time taking in the attractive figure who seemed to be glowing in front of him.
and then, he noticed that the stranger was wearing something different than before.
compared to his usual and casual clothing mingyu had distinctively remember, the stranger was now wearing a more... fashionable clothing. and to his surprise, the stranger had some makeup on too.
was he a model? a stylist? a fashion designer? who was he exactly? mingyu was very curious as he thought of the different jobs.. or perhaps events.
oh no.
was he going to a party? or a club? what if he met a guy there and fall in love? mingyu surely could not imagine the scenario as he shook his head hard, as if the thought of the stranger and another guy kissing would fade away.
".. is he even interested in guys?" a devilish-like voice suddenly barged in his train of thoughts as he shuddered at the thought of that.
it sure scared the hell out of mingyu.
mingyu was surprisingly aware of how deep he was falling for the stranger, despite him only knowing him for a few days. he was not planning to stop though, because he knew it was impossible.
he sighed as he looked at the cup of mocha that the waitress had just put down.
"mingyu? mingyu! are you there?" a voice suddenly disrupted mingyu out of his thoughts as he jumped in surprise.
"ah yes, sorry. i-"
"did you even hear what i just say? oh my god, i swear to god.. mingyu-ah."
"sorry,형! i'll call you later okay? bye!" mingyu chirped as he quickly end the call before the person could answer back. he was aware of the consequences he would face having to do that, but at that time, he simply do not care.
there was a much more important matter he had to do first.
as soon as mingyu ended the call, he quickly took out his camera as usual and started taking pictures of you-know-who.
and as the pictures of the stranger increased, the smile on his face was getting brighter.
he watched as the stranger smiled softly while reading the book. mingyu quickly snapped a picture of him with that expression as he put down his camera.
he then picked up the book he was holding earlier, Me Before You.
and as he watched the stranger intensively reading the book, he flipped to the first page and started reading.
he was eager and curious to find out what exactly the stranger was reading that had made him into this state.
and how it was becoming successful in making mingyu head over heels for him.
