Memories Of Us

#nowplaying: RizkyFebian & Mikha Tambayong - Berpisah Itu Mudah 

An artist stood in the centre of tiny stage in a small, homy cafe. She introduced herself cheerfully before starting to pull her guitar strings, and sang the song. Taeyeon smiled as soon as the intro was played she knew it from the first chord, it was her song. She sipped her tea peacefully as she listened to her own song. It was strange for her to sit in a cafe, at the quietest corner of the room, watching the musician played her own song, without no one bothered. But the strangest thing for her was to be here, in Jeonju, the city she left five years ago.

Taeyeon continued reading the novel she had in her hand. Sinking herself in the couch, listening to the song, while reading book were the luxury she could not get ever since she decided to pursue her musical career. She could not track the time until the artist excused herself and a waitress came to her table.

"Excuse me. We're about to close. Do you have anything more to order?"

Taeyeon looked at her phone, noticing it was midnight already. She looked up to the waitress and shook her head. "Could you give me the bill.

The waitress almost gasped in surprise when she noticed who her guess were. "T-taeyeon-ssi?"

Taeyeon gave a silent sign. "It's been a while since the last time I visited my hometown. I need my me time." She smiled charmingly to the waitress who immediately shut her mouth and excused herself to get the bill for Taeyeon. She came back a moment later, bringing the bill, along with an A4 paper and a marker. "Could you please sign this and give testimony for our cafe?"

Taeyeon smiled and signed the paper, also writing a nice testimony. She then paid for the bill before leaving the cafe. Five years ago, no matter how often she came to this cafe, no one paid any attention to her and Tiffany.

Tiffany

She smiled upon remembering the girl who filled her life back then when she still lived in Jeonju. Tiffany was her best friend, her best supporter in life, and her first love. She looked up to the sky and smiled wider. Coming back to Jeonju was something she could not do often ever since she had become an idol. She took a deep breath and walked towards the place she knew, to reminisce the day when she was just Kim Taeyeon, not an idol.

Tiffany flipped the sign pasted on the door from 'open' to 'close', a sign that the cafe was closed. She smiled as she stared at the glass door. She could not believe that she came back to this small city. She left the city almost five years ago, but here she was, coming back and opened a cafe near her old home. She never imagined she would be back, especially after her break up with her ex-girlfriend, Taeyeon.

"Unnie, you can go home now. I will take care of cleaning duties." A calm voice took Tiffany's attention. She turned around to find a young girl, holding a broom in her right hand and a mop in her left hand. She chuckled and took the broom.

"It's okay Juhyun-ah. I won't come to cafe tomorrow morning. I can take the cleaning duty, and you can go home. I don't want my most talented barista gets kidnapped." She joked.

"Aigoo, Unnie! Don't say such words! It's scary!" Juhyun protested.

"I believe you have a class to attend in the morning, right? Now, go home! I don't want your part-time job making your grades drop."
