'Oh no, I'm so late, why didn't mom wake me up, boohoo!!'
It was 6.40 in the morning when Sana walked out from home, she ran as fast as she could. Good thing it only takes 8 minutes to get to her working place. She didn't look at her surrounding that she accidentally hit a man's shoulder on the street.
"Hey, watch it!" He cried.
"I'm sorry! So sorry sir! I'm in a hurry." Sana said as she left him behind.
The man wanted a proper apologize from the girl but he didn't get to stop her or even see what her face looks like. As he was about to continue walking, he stepped on something. He took the thing and found out it was a script handbook. He was sure it was owned by the person who bumped into him just now.
"Minatozaki Sana..." He read as the name was neatly written on the front page of the book.

"You're supposed to be here 30 minutes before the shop opens, Sana. Thank god Yugyeom came early today so he brewed the coffee already."
"Calm down, Jackson." Mina calmly said to cool things down.
"Ya! you should at least picked me up from home, gave me a call or something." Sana pouted, she didn't like to blamed for being late.
"Alright, alright, sorry." He apologized, "what happened? You're unusually late like this."
Sana sighed tiredly before she speak, "I guess today's gonna be a bad day. I had a restless night's sleep, I woke up late, bumped into someone on my way here, and got scolded by my own best friend. And then what? Oh I'm so tired. I've been practicing a script the whole night."
"But you only have a line or two for the play, why practicing so much for that..." Mina said in worry.
Seeing the confused look on her friends' face, Sana grinned with excitement. "That's why I can't wait to tell you this!! It's for the year-end play, guys!! Mr. Park opens up an audition for the trainees and we'll be given a chance for an important role!!"
They both jaw dropped.
"Really? Wow, I'm so happy to hear that!! When's the audition?" Mina asked, she was excited by the great news.
"Next week!"
"Next week?" Exclaimed Jackson. Still in disbelief. "Well... That's a short time to practice."
"Yeah, but I hope you'll pass this time, Sana! I can't wait to be your number one cheerleader for any kind of role you'll get!" Added Mina.
"Thank you, I'll try my best too. Now, now, let's start working!"

"Sana-chan. What are you making? I haven't taken an order yet, y'know."
"Oh, this. The rose art latte of course. Hey, is he here already?"
"He's here, 3 minutes after the shop opened. But Lisa's the one taking his order."
"Okay, I'll be preparing the toast too."
"You finish your work, I'll help you with the toast." Mina prepared 2 slices of bread and placed it on the rack in the toaster oven.
Lisa showed up and placed the order list on the bar. "Sana, you got your first order here- Oh, you're almost done with it?"
"Yeah, Since he always came early and order the same menu, I need to get this done before other customers arrive. This took quite a long time to make, yknow? I'll be done in 5 minutes along with the toast."
Quiet, Lisa and Mina waited her friend to finish the art latte patiently.
Finished with it, Sana moved on and placed it on a tray where Mina had already prepared along with the toast and jam. After that she handed it to Lisa. "Here you go."
Lisa slowly pushed back the tray. "We don't have another customer yet. So why don't you give him directly?"
"W-what? B-but I... N-no. I c-can't..."
Mina dragged Sana out of the bar and gave her the tray, "It's okay, Sana! Let him know you're the one who made it!!"
Sana was shaking because she got extremely nervous which made her two friends laughed.
"Breathe in and out. Don't shake or it'll ruin the coffee. Girl, he gotta know your existence!" Mina calmed her friend down and gave her a wide smile showing her gummy.
She walked outside hesitantly approaching the man who was busily reading his newspaper. Feeling someone's presence near, he looked up to see her standing in front of him.
Like a fool, she was just there, standing on her feet and did nothing.
His eyes were just beautiful she could fall over him whenever.
She became awestruck.
Her heart couldn't stop beating fast.
What's wrong with my heart?
