Kobe's P.O.V 

I walked out of the apartment, I closed the door and locked them with the keys on my lanyard. Every step in my doc martin my keys jingled around my neck. As I stepped into the busy street, I couldn't help but take in a deep inhale and exhale. Moving from Korea when I was little and starting a new life in the big apple isn't all that bad. I actually really enjoy it. The diverse cultures and beautiful places to see. New York is honestly breath-taking. As I start walking on west 57th street, I plug my headphones in, blocking all the honks of cars, construction, and cat-calling. It honestly felt really nice. Once I opened the door, I was greeted by my friend, Liz. We've been working together at starbucks since senior year and her graduating NYU and me at Julliard and we have honestly been inseparable. Good thing that both us like working the morning shift. We can have more free time later. She gave me a slight smile and a wave. 

"Hey KJ!" she said slightly yelling. 

"Hey, Liz," I said as I wrapped my headphones and stuffed all my belongings in my backpack. I walked to the break room to get my apron and pin my nametag. I met her at the counter. 

"So, how was your morning?" she asked. I sighed as I leaned on the back counter. 

"It's my mom's birthday and I kinda forgot," I said rubbing my neck in embarrassment. She shot me a glare. 

"KOBE! How can you forget your mom's birthday! You couldn't stop yapping about how you were gon do this extravagant thing for her before and you suddenly forget?" I hang my head low again. I feel an arm wrap around my shoulder. 

"I'm sorry KJ. I know how sensitive that topic that is for you and that you don't like talking about her a lot. I shouldn't have gone off on you like that. Just know I'm here for you." She leaned her head on my shoulder. I smiled once again. What would I do without her? 

" RM I LOVE YOU!!"

"CAN YOU PLEASE SIGN MY FOREHEAD?" 

"LOOK AT MY SNACK GO!"

"PLEASE TAKE A PICTURE WITH ME!" I hear girls scream. Flashes and clicks of cameras went off like no tomorrow. Liz and I look at each other confused. I whispered in her ear. 

"Dude, what the actual fuck is going on?" I said.

"I'm just equally confused as you are," she said. 

All I see enter is a very tall, slim, milky-skinned man. His copper, rose-gold glasses gleamed in the light. I honestly question why he is wearing them in the first place. It's not even that fucking sunny. But that ain't none of my business *slightly sips on piping hot tea*. He swiftly slid them into the cleavage of his black v-cut t-shirt that was very tight to the point where you can see his muscles. His tight, blue ripped jeans also accentuated his big thighs with every stride he took. His timberlands tapped on the black tile floors. Dude, he was as tall as a fucking skyscraper like bitch WhAt? Oh, and did I tell you that he had like 3 BODYGUARDS? THAT was intimidating as hell. Liz gulped and blushed a slight pink tint. Ah shit, here we go again. Liz always gets like this around really good looking guys. I mean he's ok, not the best. His gaze fixated on the menu then on me. I needed to do my job, I ain't scared of this skyscraper. I stepped up to the cash register.

"Hey, pretty boy, what do you want to order?" I said bending my neck slightly so I can see his face because ya girl is 5'3. He scoffed as he bent to my eye level.

"Miss, is this how you treat your valued customers? In just one snap, I can just fire you right here right now. So you better clean up that sas." He said so nonchalantly. My water is boiling, this dude is really trying me huh? I stand on my tippy-toes almost face to face.

"Listen here, dude. I'm just trying to do my job and you just walked I here like you own the place. So, if you want something then just order and stop wasting my time because I right now I. Don't. Have. Time. For. You." I said whispering to him. He was emotionless then an eye-roll came right after.

"Fine. I want 2 vanilla frappuccinos, 3 iced caramel coffees, and 2 hot teas. Make it quick. " He said not even looking at me. I punched in the orders.

"Name?" I said. He slightly laughed.

"What is so funny?" he kept laughing. 

"You-you don't know who I am?" I rubbed my temples in circular motions.

"No." He laughed turned into an awkward cough then a concerned look.

"Really?" I nodded my head. he sighed. 

"Kim," he said.

"Anything else?" I said.

"No," he mumbled.

"Ok, so your total is $27.30," I said holding out my hand for his credit card. He handed me his card and swiped it. I handed it back to him while giving the receipt back too. He turned around and went to sit on the lounge chair with his bodyguards. Liz was obviously flustered by his "beauty" and I, on the other hand, plugged in my headphones and started making the drinks. I packed them in the cup-holders and went to give it to him. He came to walk up to me. 

"Here you g-," I was suddenly interrupted by Liz running into me and drinks spilled all over Kim. We both gasped and his face was filled with whipped cream. 

"I-I," Liz ran to Kim and went to try to wipe him, but swatted her presence. He looked at me in disgust and I rolled my eyes in retaliation. He came to the counter and really came face to face. 

"You owe me big time now coffee girl." He said before storming out.

A/N: HEYO! Told you I would be updating frequently and sorry for a long chapter but don't worry I'll try to shorten them. Ok bye now <3
