[Hwang Hyunjin's POV]
~ The Next Morning ~

I fell asleep last night as I thought of how to tell Haneul that I can't company her today. What should I do? "Hyunjin-ah, let's go. Oh, PD-nim said we shouldn't bring our phones so just leave it here," I didn't get to tell Haneul yet but Woojin Hyung pulls my hand out of my house. I'm sorry Haneul. I didn't mean to break your heart.

[Song Haneul's POV]

I wake up to a bright sunlight through my curtains. I yawn and quickly tidy my bed. I pick up my towel and head downstairs to take shower. I change into a long sleeved white shirt and my ripped blue jeans. I take my black side bag and wear a pair of white shoes. I switch off the lights and lock my door.

I walk to the Coffee Bay to get my breakfast

I walk to the Coffee Bay to get my breakfast. I go to the counter and order Egg, Turkey Slice with Cheese and Banana-Oat-Honey Smoothies. I sit at a place near the window and wait for Hyunjin.

Me: Hyunjin, I am waiting at Coffee Bay. Tell me if you're near. We can have breakfast together.

He's not seeing it. Why? He usually saw my texts as soon as I sent it. Hmm. Don't tell me he can't make it. It's 9:45 a.m. now.

Great, now it's raining. How can I search for a job in the rain? I eat my breakfast slowly for the time to pass. I order more food as there is not many people in the café. It's now 11:30 a.m. and I didn't see any signs of Hyunjin. He didn't even read my text. Maybe he is still asleep. I won't go back home just to wake him up.

After I eat my chocolate croissant, I take my bag and pay for my foods. Suprisingly, the cashier is Yoo Seonho from my school. I smile at him. After I pay and get my bill, he hands me a piece of paper and wink at me. I shrug it off and keep it in my bag as it might get wet because of the rain.

I open my small umbrella and walk by myself down the road. I take a cab and go to Gangnam. I reach there and pay the cab driver kindly. I walk slowly from road to road to search for a café that needs cashier or waitress. I passed by The Street Café and decide to ask for a part time job.

I go to the cashier and smile at her. She smiles to me back, "What can I help you with?" She ask kindly.

"I would like to know is there any part time job available here?" I ask her while smiling. I hold my resume in a file. She tells me to wait because her boss in not around. She asks me if I know who 'The Street' belongs to and I shake my head. She said 2PM owns this café but they never knew who the real owner is and  for sure it is under JYP Entertainment. I was fascinated by the café as it is well-decorated and near to CUBE and JYP Entertainment. It is much easier if I get to go to composing training at either two entertainment.

Then a man with a mask come in and greet the cashier girl who was talking to me just now. Maybe she tells her about me because I saw she pointed her fingers at me. I just smile when the man look at me. He gets in his office (maybe) and the girl come to me.

"He ask me to tell you to come in to his office. He wants to interview you about something" She said politely. I take a deep breath and walk to his office. I turn around and she make a 'good luck' sign with her hand. I smile and proceed to the boss office.

To my suprise, the man is Wooyoung of 2PM. He smiles at me and I smile back. "So, are you here to find a part time job?"He asks out of the blue. He gestures his hand to tell me that I can sit in front of him.

"Yes, I'm here for part time job" I answer confidently.

"What day can you come and how much do you want a month?" I hesitate.

"Mm I'm sure I can come on weekends and on Thursday and Friday. I don't have many classes that day." He then asks me what school am I going so I said that it is School of Performing Arts.

"Oh my dongsaengs are studying there too. Do you know Stray Kids?" I nod and smile at him. "Okay so here how it goes. If you cannot come on certain day, just tell me alright. And if on holidays you work all week, I will increase your salary. How about I put 5000 ₩ for an hour. If you work longer, you will earn more alright?" My face light up with excitement.

"Yes of course. Am I allowed to work starting from tomorrow ?" I ask excitedly and he quickly nod. "Thank you very much" He then asks me to hand in my resume and I do so. He tells me to ask for my uniform from the lady before.

I went out from his office with a smile and ask the lady to give me the uniform. She gives me two pairs of everything and hands me a couple of manual book as well as menu to memorise at home so it will be easier for me to work there. I thank her and return home with a happy face. It is now 4 p.m. I decided to go to Dunkin' Donut in front of JYP and pack some food for dinner and order an Iced Tea to bring home. I then take a cab and return home.

I take a shower and starts to eat my dinner. I sit at the living room to watch tv and after that, I go upstairs to iron my part time uniform. I hang it nicely in my drawer and read the manuals and menu. I practice talking and asking people such as "What would you like to order?" by myself. I laugh everytime I practice.

I practice all night until 10:30 p.m. I decided to sleep early so that I wake up fresh to go to work. Before I went to sleep, I check my phone again and my text were seen by Hyunjin but he didn't reply. I don't want to be suspicious or something so I just went straight to sleep.

Weird. Still no text at all from him. I whisper at myself sadly.
