Y/N POV:

I was working at a cafè in Seoul taking orders when I heard my phone ringing. I couldn't answer it since, well I was working and I wasn't allowed to be on my phone during my shift. I saw a man enter and walk up to the counter and looked up at the menu on the wall, deciding what he wanted to get. He soon ordered and sat down at an empty booth.

I went to make his drink and I felt like I was being watched. I turned and saw him looking at me, making me kinda nervous.I finished making his drink and I walked over then handed it to him and walked back to the counter. I saw him on his phone while he was drinking the drink he ordered.

25 minutes later

I soon finished my shift, so I went to the back to get my stuff and walked back out. I saw that man is still here and he looked at me then stood up. I ignored it and walked outside, seeing it was raining and I forgot my umbrella at home but luckily I had my hoodie.

I put my hood up and started walking home. I felt my phone start vibrating again and I remembered that someone called me. I pulled my phone out and saw that my mom was calling me. I answered the call and put the phone up to my ear.

"Hi mom." I answered.
"Why didn't you pay the bills for this month?" She asked.
"I didn't check how much I have to pay, I just got off work." I told her.
"It's not just this month you missed, you also missed last month you're lucky I told them that you'll pay for it this month but if you don't, I'm not going to help you anymore."
"I'm sorry alright, my job doesn't pay me enough to pay those high bills, I would've been fine with a apartment but you wanted me to have a house and you knew that I wouldn't be able to pay for it every month."
"I thought you'll get a better job than that waitress job at a cafè you got."
"They were the only ones that hired me without a college degree and it was closer to where I live." I said, walking up to the mailbox and grabbing the mail then went to my front door and unlocking it then walking inside.
"I don't care, you better pay those bills before I disown you." She said, hanging up the phone.

How does she expect me to pay for the house with my salary? I only get paid $6 an hour, that's not enough to pay the bills for this place. I walked upstairs and went into my room. I put my phone and the mail on my bed and went into the bathroom to take a bath to relax. I put my head on the back of the tub and sighed.

10 minutes later

I got out of the tub and wrapped a towel around my body. I dried my hair and walked back in my room and put my pajamas on. I then opened the mail and saw how much I had to pay, causing my eyes to open wide.

"How can I pay for this?!" I yelled. I put the mail back on the bed and flopped down. "I guess I have to do what I never wanted to do which is get a loan." I said, standing up and walking downstairs to get something to eat.

I decided to make a sandwich since I didn't feel like cooking anything, so I grabbed what I needed. Once I finished making my sandwich, I walked to the living room and sat down, turning on the TV. I was flipping through channels until I found a drama. I was then eating while watching the TV.

5 minutes later

I finished my sandwich and turned off the TV. I threw my trash away then went upstairs to my room. I decided to try to get a loan tomorrow, so I plugged my phone up and turned the lights off then laid down in my bed. I closed my eyes and drifted off to sleep.
