Few days has passed. Weekend has passed. And it's already Monday again.

That man who usually comes in the morning, hasn't made any appearance since he told her about leaving for a business trip days ago.

Even though he didn't come again, she'd still make the rose art latte. Who knows he might show up out of nowhere?

"Hey, Sana, if you're not gonna drink that, can I have it?" Jackson asked her with his puppy eyes.

"Sure. You can have it after your shift's over."

He smiled and caressed her hair, "cheer up, girl! I know you can do well on your audition. You've practiced hard."

"Thanks Jacky, I'll try my best tomorrow." She smiled back at him and for some times she'd glance at the table outside where that man usually sits. Jackson who was following her gaze could sense the loneliness she had through her eyes. He frowned at the thought of her thinking of the man who recently took her attention away from him.

'Well, Sana, if only you knew all the things I did for you...'

The next day, Yugyeom called out to his workers and they soon gathered to know what he's gonna announce about.

"Okay, guys, gather up! I want to introduce you to our new worker today!" He said. "This is Wendy the new barista. Since we're getting more customers, I'm hiring her to help Sana doing the work."

"Nice to meet you all

"Nice to meet you all. I'm Son Wendy, 20 years old." She introduced herself.

"Another pretty lady, yasss.. Ouch." Jackson uttered a yelp as Mina and Lisa smacked both of his arms. The others laughed at his silly behavior then introduced themselves to Wendy one by one.

"Come on, Wendy. Let's get started." Sana pulled her hand and assist her on her first day of work.

"So, that's that. Uh, for the workers in every shift we have part time waiter/waitress, a busboy, a dishwasher, and a full time patisserie. Just don't be nervous around them, they're all nice. I know it's your first time and we're gonna be extra busy, but if you need help you can just ask anyone. We're all like family here." Sana fully explained to her.

"Thanks, Sana-sunbaenim. I'll try doing my best."

"You don't have to call me formally. Our age gap isn't that far. Oh, and one more thing," she added, "we usually have a special customer who comes by every morning. So we have to give him the best service we could."

"What kind of special customer is he?" Wendy wondered.

"He only comes to enjoy this very special art latte specially made for him." Sana answered as she wiping out the glasses.

"Umm.. So, tell me, is he a fresh, good looking man in office suit?" Wendy began to guess.

"Yup."

"... Pale blonde hair, tall and kinda skinny...?"

"Errr... I thought he was brunette.." Sana said, kind of confused why Wendy could described the person almost correct, "but hey, how did you know?"

Wendy was quiet for a moment while her eyes focused on the door. "That..."

Sana was looking at Wendy who was looking in astonishment then as she turned her head, she gasped silently at the presence of him in front of her, alive and well and looking ever so stunning with his new dyed hair.

'Damn, what a visual.' The girls thought.

"Hi." He greeted with his deep ass voice.

His eyes, once again, the gaze of his eyes, had captured her heart.

"W-welcome." Sana stuttered, she stood frozen still and her heart was uncontrollably beating faster she couldn't maintain it normally when he's around.


Especially with his new look, how could she not?
