[Jeongcheol] donut shop

donut shop chapter 20

Jeonghan's POV

     "Yah! Mino, Bobby can you stop moving for like five minutes!", the customer with a pretty big nose yelled to the two younger guys stepping on every square tile of my shop. I chuckled, remembering Dino, "your kids are pretty energetic", I smiled at the customer who was probably crying inside, his face showed it all. The guy snapped out of it, while the two other boys were still giddy, but not as much. "They're my younger brothers, but yeah... they've probably made me bust a nut every hour and I only have two...", the customer's care-free comment made me burst out laughing. He noticed then laughed too, probably trying to ease his own tension, "so what can I get you and your brother's sir?", his face flushed a bit, "aye, I'm not that old, just call me Zico", he insisted. I smiled and nodded, "alright Zico, what'll it be?". Zico looked at the menu above, "I'll have a medium iced coffee... mocha- Bobby-ah, Mino-ah what do you guys want?", Zico asked his two younger brothers who surprisingly stopped fooling around and looked at the glass counter with the doughnuts.

The boy with pretty strong eyebrows pursed his lips then opened his mouth, "the cookies and cream one over there", Zico nodded and looked towards the other boy with smaller cat-like eyes, "how about you, Bobby?". Bobby leaned his face on the glass, his features smooshed on the surface, "yah don't do that...", Zico sweat dropped as he gently pulled Bobby away from the now foggy glass. I giggled, "no worries", I reassured them. "I'll just get the same thing as Mino hyung", and as usual, like every single day, the order's prepared, get the money, press some buttons, receipt, blah blah blah- same ole, same ole drill as a cashier.

I pursed my lips together, pushing my round glasses up to my nose bridge as Zico, Bobby and Mino exited the shop. The bell rung once more, I looked at the entrance to find Joshua and his kind smile plastered on his face. I bit my lips, for some reason, he's such a nice friend but his actions seem to hint otherwise... why does he have to like me- wait... maybe he doesn't like me, aish I'm getting too carried away. "Hey hyung", his voice pulled me out of my thoughts, I smiled at him, "hey Joshua, what can I get you today?".

The foreign male leaned on the counter then sighed, "I-I wanna ask you something...", my eyes widened, for fuck's sakes don't you dare tell me what I think you're going to tell me. I gulped then fixed my posture, "you already did", I chuckled a little awkwardly, feeling the tension. "Ah... am I making you uncomfortable?", he looked at me with his suddenly worried eyes.

"Wait, is that really your question?"

"No! Actually- Jeonghan... aish let me just get this out... I-I like Seokmin...", my eyes widened, wait... come again? He noticed my reaction and panicked a little. "You're serious? You like Dokyeom?", I unconsciously smiled putting a 'really' face on. Joshua widened his eyes as well, "yah, hyung you're too loud!". I laughed out, trying not to catch any of the customers' attention, Joshua looked at me confused, "what?".

"Oh nothing- anyway, you like Seokmin, that's what you're telling me, right?", I wiped a fake tear from the corner of my eye then leaned on the counter in front of him getting down to business. All this time I thought he liked me, I felt silly about it, but nonetheless, I just laughed at the predicament. "Yes, yes, now can you please stop reminding me", Joshua blushed furiously, I chuckled, "alright, alright, let your hyung help with that", I smiled reassuringly as my 'magic' happened, by that I mean giving Joshua Seokmin's phone number and giving him a heads up. Honestly, I feel like some sort of character that watches over everything that happens and help the people who need it- like an uncle Vic* or a fairy godmother, something like that.

"This is Jisoo, my girlfriend", Rose introduced me to a pretty girl around her age, shy looking, but still gave off a sweet, positive vibe. I smiled and bowed my head a little as she did the same, "nice to meet you, my name's Jeonghan", we exchanged words for a couple more minutes until the bell rung, our heads turning towards the doors. Chaeyoung giggled, taking Jisoo's hand, "come on let's make way, Jeonghan's husband is here", Jisoo 'O'ed as they both found a table. Seungcheol approached with a tired smile, I chuckled at how cute he looked even when he was tired, I walked in front of the counter hugging him.

Seungcheol hugged me back, placing his chin on my head, "where those girls flirting with you?", I looked at him and laughed. "That was Rose and her girlfriend", his eyes widened a little, his lips pushed out as he nodded, probably surprised. Suddenly the sound of the classical apple ringtone echoed out, Cheol backed up, fishing for his phone out of his pocket, while his other hand still clung to my waist, though I didn't really mind. When Seungcheol looked at the caller ID, his face contorted, but it happened so quickly that if I didn't pay attention I would have had missed it.

His grip on my waist grudgingly loosened,

"I gotta get this..."
