"It haven't been a month yet but now i have to quit, im so sorry" Melody apologizes while staring at the owner of the cafe regretfully.

The owner who is also Jihoon's uncle starts to feel so confuse "can't you tell me why? it's too sudden for me" Mr.Lee asks, he hardly want to let go of his best pianist.

Melody starts to feel bad, but she also not sure about telling him the truth in case Jihoon might uncomfortable with it "ac-actually... i.." she stutters while still thinking about an excuse

"Actually she will do music with me," says the voice of the unknown, melody immediately can recognizes who it is. "Jihoon? What do you mean?" The uncle raises his eyebrows confusedly, melody starts to turn her head around to look at him

'It's really him, im safe' thought melody inside her mind happily. She feels so glad and relieved to see him there.

Jihoon walks closer and sits beside Melody naturally, melody looks at him  with a smile and like always he just coldly ignores her. Melody can't deny the coldness is his natural behavior, she sigh and look at the uncle again

"O my goodness seriously?! Thats cool im so happy for both of you" says the uncle happily with a big smile, Jihoon starts to sense something weird from his uncle's mind "it's seriously not like whatever inside your mind uncle please don't think like that" jihoon exclaims makes his uncle wake up from his own fantasy.

"Even its like that, why not?" He adds while gives out a wink to his nephew. Melody who silently watches everything just innocently blinking without any clue what they were talking about. "We got to go" Jihoon changes the subject and stand up, melody follows after him without saying anything.

"O-oh wait, your salary!" shouts Mr. Lee while rushing to take out an envelope from his pocket, melody reaches the envelope and give her boss a bow and a smile "thank you so much for everything" she says politely.

"Come over anytime when you free my future--" jihoon immediately close his uncle's mouth before he finish his sentence "you go first" says jihoon to melody while gives her a sign to get out from the cafe first. Melody nods and just obeys it.

"Samchunn! What are you trying to do?" Jihoon asks embarrassedly his face suddenly turns pink, "i know you like her" Mr. Lee smirks, his words makes jihoon dumbfounded "it's seriously not like that believe me," Jihoon exclaims desperately.

"Even its not now but i can sense it you will slowly" his uncle just won't stop, makes him gives up don't want to have a debate with an older person "i've got to go uncle seriously it's not like that" Jihoon exclaims one last time, meanwhile Mr. Lee thinks he deny it because he's shy.

"If you don't like her why did you come!" Mr. Lee screams before Jihoon get out from the cafe.

'Sigh~ this uncle seriously I can't stop him but after all i just need her talent not her' thought Jihoon while exiting the cafe annoyedly

"yes, that's why i came" jihoon mumbles alone

"What is happening here" Melody mumbles blankly, while waiting for jihoon outside the cafe.

She groans tiredly, still can't get over of the tiredness from her peaceful weekend that had being stolen from those 13 boys. She slept all day right after she came back from the forest and woke up this morning to go to school nevertheless she got mad from her teachers for the first time because she haven't done her homeworks at all

Not enough with all of those, today she have to work again. She actually haven't get use with her new daily routine "sigh....my life" she whines sorrowfully

For melody, the work is more harder and tired than what she expected also because of jihoon's nonstop nagging, its making it more harder to believe that the small and cute looking guy is actually like that "It is too late to regret now?" she mumbles again while leaning on the wall and stares at the tree that moves rhythmically with the winds.

"What did you just said?" Jihoon asks right after he gets out from the cafe, "i mean what took you too long?" Melody chuckles awkwardly, she gladly managed to say something.

"Ah sorry, but why are you still here?" He asks again while raising his eyebrows blankly "didn't you said i have to wait for you?" Melody answers also feeling blank "did i? L-let's go then," he says while scratches his head embarrassedly

"What's wrong with him seriously," melody mumbles while follows the small guy from behind. "I heard that melody" Jihoon murmurs scarily, Melody starts to gasp out of shock how can she forget that Jihoon have a sharp ears.

"You know i mean where we will go?" melody try to change her words "where else? studio of course" Jihoon answers calmly

'Uhm? He comes this far just to rescue me?' thought Melody nonstop out of curiosity.

They finally arrived at the bus stop and they stand side to side waiting for the bus. Both of them haven't open their mouth, because there's actually a lot of things playing around inside both of their minds

"Jihoon why did you" Melody bravely starts to talk "i-i mean urm, nevermind" she ended up stuttered, she wants to ask but she hesitates even though the guy just as small as her but he is still an oppa

Jihoon turns his head and look at her, melody starts to turn her head to look at him.

"I actually know what you want to ask" Jihoon says calmly meanwhile Melody just waits for him to continue

"please don't misunderstand uncle texted me, said that you want to stop working and he asked me why" after he finishes his word, he looks away and face the road again

"But why?" Melody asks bravely "I don't know, don't ask me ask him why he texted me" Jihoon replies as cold as always. "I mean why did you come?" Asks Melody again.
