Mingi huffed as he watched the guy, Baekhyun (as San told him) and Y/N chat happily for a few moments which left him to become more and more irritated. Another employee called Y/N and told her to fix an order. She bid goodbye to Baekhyun and he smiled at her, "That's my cue, I'll leave now," he said. Good, leave now. Mingi thought. Y/N smiled and waved as Baekhyun left. She then fixed the orders and Mingi decided that this is his chance. Okay, Mingi. Just remember what Joongie said, Say hi and start a topic.

He stood up and walked to approach her just as Y/N left the counter to deliver the drinks to other customers. Mingi was a few steps away when someone bumped to him which caused the person to bump Y/N who's walking by. Y/N let out a yelp as the hot drinks spill on her causing her to let go of the tray. The other employees came out to look at the commotion as Mingi watched the events unfold, "Oh my god, I'm so sorry!" the person who bumped into him exclaimed and turn to him, "I am so so sorry!" the person apologized. "It's okay." Mingi replied as he watched one barista to come over and take Y/N to the back to presumably, apply first aid. The other employees and the person continued to apologize and make sure everyone is okay. The situation died down, but the surprise on Mingi's chest didn't.

Mingi went home after the commotion without even bothering to look at his phone. He entered the apartment and saw Hongjoong at the kitchen table, studying. "Hey Mingi. Where have you been?" he greeted him. "Nowhere...Just went out to get coffee." He shrugged, taking off his shoes. "Yeosang dropped off some pasta while you were out. You can eat it if you're hungry." Hongjoong said. "No thanks, I'm not very hungry. Is Yeo not here?" Mingi inquired. "He took his girl friend on a date, said he owes her a trip to a museum," Hongjoong said, still writing down his notes. Mingi nodded and told him that if he needs him he'll be at his bedroom.

Mingi lied down on his bed facedown, I missed the chance to talk to her, maybe I should just try tomorrow? He pondered and then rolled to his side facing his window. I also bumped into a guy that bumped her and caused a hot beverage pour down on her, which means I'm the reason she got hurt. He sighed and clutched his pillow. It wasn't his fault but he still can't help but feel guilty. His eyes trailed to the tin can telephone he and his friend made, he stood up and looked at it. I guess it doesn't hurt to try, right?

Y/N just got home from the coffee shop, she was sitting on her bed that's beside the window as she watched videos from her laptop. Her colleagues told Yunho about what happened earlier, he called her and told her to take the day off. The burn is not that bad anyway, it just stings so she had to put an ice pack over it for the rest of the day.

She was so focused on watching that it took a while before she noticed something outside her window. She furrowed her brows as she paused the video she is watching and pushed her window open."...A can?" she said to no one. She tugged the can and inspected it. "Hello?" the voice from the can said, Y/N squealed and abruptly let go of the can. "Oh! Uhm...S-sorry, I didn't mean to startle you." The voice said.
