"where are you?" i asked my boyfriend, chanyeol, on the phone.

i sat alone at a table for two, at a small coffee shop in the mall. chanyeol wanted to meet me here, saying that it was extremely important.

i guess he was over exaggerating, since he was twenty-one minutes late, and counting. i tapped my fingers on the table in frustration, as he still didn't answer my question.

"where are you?" i asked once again, trying not to raise my voice. the small coffee shop was quite busy today, most of the tables were filled.

i heard shuffling on the other end of the line until he finally responded. "im cant come, chae. im with someone else now."

"what do you mean?" my voice rose unexpectedly, earning some glares from the customers.

"i-i wanted to meet with you b-because i wanted to break up with you," he confessed. "i was planning to go but she wanted me to-"

"she? who's she?" i was stunned. he already had someone else, without even telling me.
"that doesn't matter right now, babe."

"what do you mean 'it doesn't matter right now'? it does matter, chanyeol. you were cheating on me! just because you broke up with me doesn't make you right. the fact that you were with a girl even when we were still dating makes me so- ugh!"

i hung up the phone abruptly and rushed out of the shop hastily, causing quite a scene. i found the nearest bench and crashed onto it. i couldn't even process what just happened.

i leaned back and rubbed my temples, trying to cool down and stop my tears from falling. this was not how i wanted to start my summer.

"uh, miss? are you okay?" said a soft voice to my left. it was a young girl, maybe around four or five.

i was a little surprised to see a kid so young come up to me alone. "y-yes, im okay."

the little girl with short black hair marched next to me and sat down on the bench. she seemed pretty mature for her age.

"did someone break your heart?" she asked, her voice squeaking at the end. she was very cute and i had the urge to squeeze her cheeks.

i let out a dry laugh, remembering what happened earlier. "yeah, you could say that."

she patted my back with her soft little hands. "dont worry miss. someone broke my mommy's heart too."

hearing her mention her mom, i looked around for her. i couldn't see anyone in particular that looked liked this kid's mom.

i asked her where her mom was, and she said that she got lost.

"but this guy said he would help me," the little girl added.
"do you know where he is?" i asked.

she looked around, and pointed to someone walking across the mall.
"over there!"

before i could even respond, the little girl raced up to him and hugged his legs. the guy seemed shocked as he tried to shake her off.

i quickly went after them, trying to help get the girl off.

"oppa, you said you'd help me find my mom," she complained, still clinging to his legs.

"little girl, can you please get off of him?" i asked politely. i mentally facepalmed. i forgot to ask for her name. calling her 'little girl' was getting annoying.

she finally let go, and i pulled her back into my arms. "oppa, you said you'd help me!"

the guy looked unfazed. "yah, i don't have time," he said. "ask her."

he nodded his heads towards me, but she was stubborn and shook her head.

"but you promised!" she whined, crossing her arms. the guy seemed pissed.

"sorry, " he apologized, before turning away and walking away from us.

i glanced at her face. she looked like she was on the verge of crying. she started to sniffle.

"wait here," i said to the girl before chasing after the man.

i grabbed his wrist and pulled him back harshly. "whaa-"

i pinched into his arm, making him wince. "what the hell do you want?"

"if you leave this fuckin kid i will slap the fuck out of your cute chubby cheeks," i threatened.

he smirked, and pulled his hand away with a jerk. "cute chubby cheeks?"

i immediately regretted what i said, covering my mouth. but i wasn't lying though.

i gritted my teeth. "that's not the point."

his smirked lessened into his usual, plain face. "fine," he growled. "but don't expect me to be nice."

he walked back towards the girl, and i followed behind. "fine little girl, i'll help you."

"yayy!" she squealed in joy, grabbing both of our hands. seeing her happy brightened up my mood.

"my name is chaeyoung by the way," i introduced, holding my hand out to the guy.

he obviously noticed my hand, but he didn't mind to shake it. rude.

"jimin," he replied. "my name is jimin."
