Chapter 8

Yannie's POV

"So... What's your order?" He asked.

"Uhm--"

"My treat," He cut.

"Uh... The usual coffee jelly and strawberry cheesecake. Gomawo!" (*Thank you (informal))

My phone beeped a multiple times. Oh. It must be the group chat the skaters talking about.

Yoonjin: Let's go out on Sat?
Minseok: I'm in.
Sewon: Sure
Rowon: Yeah
Jinyoung: Count me in
Chanhyuk: Me too
Yoonjin: Yannie?
Yannie: I'll see
Yoonjin: Oh okay...
Seen by You and 5 others

"Here's your order," Hanbin smiled.

Dugdug. Dugdug.

"A-ah! Gomawo!" I stutter. Deym Yannie! What's happening to you?! Act normal and stop stuttering!

He let out a chuckle and turned a little serious, "If you don't mind, can I ask you a question?" I nodded my head, "Sure."

"Are you korean?" Oh... So he noticed?

"Nope. I'm a Filipina."

"Yeah... That's why you have unique features on your face," He leaned closer and check my features.

I felt my cheeks reddened. I covered my face from embarrassment.

"Yah... Don't cover you face," He laughed shyly and removed my hands from my face. My eyes widened when he touched my hand.

"O-oh. S-sorry about that..." His eyes widened too. He touched his nape out of embarrassment.

The awkward silence filled the air.

"So, are you working or something?" I asked, breaking the awkward silence between us.

"Yes. I'm a music composer and lyricist on YG Entertainment," No wonder. His notebook says it all.

"YG? How come I didn't know you? I'm from YG Publishing."

"I go to work every 6:00 am and go home at 3:00 am so you wouldn't see me."

"What?! You don't even sleep?!"

"Not really. If a group's comeback is near, that's when I worked overtime."

"Woah! You surely a hardworking man!" I exclaimed and sip from my coffee jelly.

"Not really," He said and touch his nape. Favorite gesture, eh?

I shrugged and bite on my strawberry cheesecake.

"Uhm... Yannie-ssi? Can I take you to our home tonight?" My eyes widened. What the hell is he saying?

"A-ah... D-don't get me wrong please! My mom wanted to meet you. Y-you know, when you give my notebook back..."

"Ah! Y-yes. Of course! I don't have something to do tonight. I'm free," I calmed myself. I'm overacting once again. Yaaah! Stop thinking nonsense, Yannie-ah!

"Really? Mom would be happy!" I smiled as a reply. He surely loves his Mom a lot.

We finished eating at 5:46 pm. Hanbin payed all the bills, his treat though. We made our way out of the café and take a cab to his house.

My hands are trembling. I know Hanbin's Mom is kind but... I don't know. I don't understand myself sometimes...

"Ya. Are you nervous?" He looked at me with a hint of concern in his eyes. I blinked multiple times. I feel like melting... heeeeeelp!
