"Don't you run run run, it's already been very hard. Walking now is okay.

Resting a bit is also good.
Taking it easy is also good.
You don't have to overwork
yourself"

[Day6 - Marathon]

The jet black haired beauty walked in peace on her way to the coffee shop, in small steps to slower down her pace. Just like what it said in the song she was listening to, she thought she didn't have to run and just enjoy her walk.

She wasn't in a hurry because it was still quite early in the morning; her shift starts at 8:30 and she was an hour ahead. She didn't like being late, especially now that it's her first day. Plus, she wanted to know more stuff before she starts working so she doesn't mess up, although she already knows the basics.

With music blasting through her ears, the girl looks around to see people taking walks hand in hand. Some walking their pets, some were couples.

All smiles on their faces, just like her who had a smile resting on her pretty face.

She had always liked seeing people happy, it was something she found heartwarming. That was also one of the reasons she thought of trying out as a barista. She wanted to make people happy just by the simple things she does.

All the school stuff has been draining the hell out of her, so she thought of a distraction. Of course, she still had her schoolworks ---but she can manage. The humble girl was after all, still leading on the ranking. Her smarty brain taking it all so easy.

Her phone then rings, stopping her train of thoughts. She checks it to see her friend calling.

"Choi Jisu please please please come here at my place, I need you right here right now please." That was the first thing she heard from her. She furrows her brows at her friend's words.

"Why, good morning to you too, Ryujin." She greets in sarcasm.

"Yeah yeah g'morning, now please can you head to my place? You're still early for your shift." She rolls her eyes at her retort, though she was used to her. She would often call out of the blue without even greeting her first.

"But I'm heading to work now." She whines in response, trying to bail on her friend. She doubts it was something serious. For all she knows, Ryujin must be calling for her to buy her breakfast ---again.

"Pleeeeeaaase? I thought you loved me. I'm gonna be sad all morning now." There she goes, pulling that card on her like she does all the time. Ryujin knows she can't say no to her now.

"Ugh, alright you can stop now."

"Yes! But before you go here, buy me breakfast, okay?" I knew it, she just wants breakfast. Typical Ryujin.
