~A.
Normally I don't work on Thursdays but I needed to work an extra shift or else I would be able to pay my rent. O.k. that was a lie.. However I do need the money because today my cousin turned 18 and I needed money for his birthday that we would be celebrating this Saturday. Since Lies had a day off I was bored out of my mind because I couldn't tease her with Mark - only when I was absolutely sure that Kai wasn't around -.
I heard the door open behind me so with a smile on my face I turn around.
Please don't let it be him, please don't let it be him.. Phuleasee... Noooooo! It's him.
"Jagiyaa~ you're here today, my life is complete" he says as he attempts to hug me.
Seriously there is something wrong with this guy, who tries to hit on every waitress they see? Yeh only Kai.. I have no idea what his last name is to be honest. All I do know is how annoying he can be from time to time. Of course I meant always annoying.
"Hands off or else I'll call the cops on your ass" I say as I take a step back.
He flashes me his cheeky smile. "Oh jagiya you are so funny".
O.k.. I really need to look up what jagiya means, wait how do you even write it? Oh I really start to hate that guy.
Suddenly I feel a pair of hands rest on my shoulders startling me. When I turn around I see that Kai's face is only a few inches away from mine.
"J-A-G-I-Y-A, jagiya" with those words he gives me a wink before heading to his usual table. Wait did he hear my thoughts? Or was I talking my mind again? Oh no what if he heard me saying that I hate him?
I shake my head and grab my phone out of my apron. I got a bunch of messages from Lies who is probably bored out of her mind. Instead I open chrome to look up the word 'jagiya', it's easy since Kai spelled it out for me.
Jagiya: (Korean) Honey, sweetie, love, darling. Used between couples in a relationship to address each other. Normally used by younger couples, and can be between unmarried or married couples.
..... wait what. Why would he call me that? If it's something that lovers call each other then why does he use it on me? He already knows he won't be getting any discount so why bother. I walk up to his table with a forced smile. Wait! Two can play this game!
"Ah jagiya what would be your order" I ask trying to be cute while batting my eyelashes.
He looks up startled as his eyes grow bigger and his mouth falls open. Success! I try to look as cute as possible while he seems to be lost for words.
"Jagiya, are you okay?".
"I am now jagiya, finally you are returning my love. No more one sided love" he says with a wide smile.
Oh fudge.....
I awkwardly rub behind my ear with the pen feeling frustrated. Why am I unable to scare him away? Or at least make him annoy someone else who isn't me? "Yes sure but what is your order jagiya".
"Black soda with pancakes and a kiss from the lovely A".
"Coming right up and in your dreams".
He chuckles softly as I am writing down his usual order. "But jagiya I have kissed you so many times already in my dreams that I need a real one right now".
A, ignore.. move on and ignore. He is just messing with you like always.
I head to the kitchen to place his order not listening to anymore of his pleads for a 'sweet kiss from my sweet cherry lips'. This guy really is mental. However he does make me laugh because he just acts like one of those idiots in those comedy movies. Maybe behind the layer of stickiness he might be sweet.

A few hours later my shift finally ended so I could finally go home and relax. I have been looking forward to this moment all day. While I was waiting for the tram I sense someone standing next to me. When I look up - since I'm small - I feel my mood drop.
"Jagiyaaa~ so nice to see you without apron" he says as he shows me a toothy smile.
I swallow. "Eh hi Kai".
Suddenly he wraps an arm around my shoulders pulling me closer to his body. I hate to admit it but he does smell nice for such an asshole.
GAWD A don't think that way! He is touching you, he is actually touching you! Make it staaapphh. Why isn't Lies here when you need her?
"So how about you coming with me to my house" he asks, actually being serious for once.
"Ha ha very funny but no. I would never ever go to your house even if my life depended on it. Now if you excuse my I need to catch my tram" I say as I shove his arm away before quickly slipping into the tram. VICTORYYYY!! I grab my phone out of my pocket to see if Lies is still breathing.
'Eeyyy twinno, rough day. Kai came back and tried that cheesy pick-up line again. Barely made it our alive'.
Her reply however was not really helping because all she send back was:
'HAHAHAHAHA, JUST YOUR LUCK AGAIN'.
She was actually enjoying the pain I through when I bumped into Kai, twice. I can't blame her though because I was giving both her and Mark silent hints to get together. I just hoped that neither of them took them serious or else Lies would kill me, or even worse.... give my number to Kai. If she would do that then my life would seriously be ruined. I sigh loudly as I grasp a handle to hold onto so I wouldn't fall face forward like a loser while scanning through my apps looking for the right one. As I put my earplugs I heard the twelve beautiful voices of EXO echoing through my ears. I could finally relax a little.
