"don't you dare close the door mister! i'm late for my job," i raised my voice to stop the person from pressing any button on the elevator.

"thanks for not pressing the button, " i thanked him with a small bow and pressed button to the lobby.

"no problem," he said with a smile which i found hard to resist.

behind him were two young men with unusual hair colours that one could even dare to try.

"hi! my name is jung hoseok! what's yours?", the guy extended his hand towards me.

"i'm lee yun! nice to meet you! " i replied with same enthusiasm.

"well same here. "

he noticed me eyeing the two people being him on each sides and took notice of it.

"oh! meet my friends, he is min yoongi and he is park jimin, " gesturing towards the guy with light brown hair first and then the guy with silver coloured hair next.

"hello, " i gave them a smile with bow.

they both nodded and bowed in acknowledgement.

i waited for the elevator to reach the lobby while the silence enveloped us.

the elevator dinged and the door opened with me striding out of it in hurry and ran out of the building towards to the cafe.

—

"sorry for being late, mark! " i said as i entered inside the cafe resulting the startled mark along with mingyu.

"it's alright. now come here."

with that i made my way towards the counter replacing mingyu who is the batista of this cafe along with mark who made his made toward the coffee maker.

"what would you like? ", i asked the person in front of counter.

"i would like two americano," the guy replied.

"your name? " i asked him.

"kim taehyung "

"alright taehyung you can wait for the coffee."

the said guy made his way back to the table where another guy with brown hair was waiting for him.

i then took orders from other people and passed it to mark who was mingyu.

"kim taehyung! " i called out.

the boy made his way towards the counter while i handed him his americano.

the day continued on with a cycle of taking orders and serving. and the day passed in a blink of an eye. i was helping mark and mingyu to clean the cafe when suddenly mingyu broke the silence.

"yun, when will your classes start?"

"from tomorrow," i replied cleaning.

"you grew so well. do you know that yun. when you first started working here you were just 15. damn! time does fly fast," mark was the one to speak this time "and now you're attending university."

i just looked at them and grinned. you see i graduated highschool so i'm now attending university.

cleaning the cafe sure took all my energy. i thought and plopped down on the chair along with mark and since mingyu right after he cleaned the cafe.

"i'm going now. yun come with me ,i'll drop you off at your apartment. your brother told me to drop you off," mark stood up.

"sure. "

—

the ride to apartment was short , just 15 minutes.

"now get off i want to go home soon too, " mark said in a playful tone.

"geez! don't worry i'll get off! " i exclaimed while making a face.

"bye! take care! sleep well and dream of me, baby girl!" he shouted with a wink sending my way.

i cringed at him and playfully ducked from his wink but replied with a smile and copied him.

"you too. sleep well. and don't call me that again! " i exclaimed at him and waved while he drives away from the apartment building. 

"who was that? "

"holy shi— what are you doing here outside," i scowled at the said person.
