[ Yunho ]

" He's not home Mingi! "

" Calm down babe, San will be safe. Did you try reaching his phone? ", Mingi questions me in a monotone voice. Does he not care about his own friend?

" I tried calling him but his phone is switched off! ", I answer, agitated. " Please tell me he's not doing anything stupid, Mingi. "

" Well, there's nothing we can do now anyway. Go get some sleep, San will probably call you on his own. He'll be alright, don't worry. ", he says in a 'matter of fact' tone.

" Your friend's missing for God's sake, why are you acting so calm! You know what, give the phone to Hongjoong, right now! ", I scream. I hear Mingi sigh from the other line.

After a few minutes of silence, I hear Hongjoong speaking.

" Yunho I know how worried you are right now, but don't worry, I trust San. He won't get himself into any trouble. ", he reassures me.

" I hope so. "

" Maybe he went to that guy's place. The guy he keeps travelling with? What's his name again? Wooyoung, right."

" I wish he's there. Wooyoung will keep him good company for the night. ", I say, hoping San truly was with Wooyoung.

" Don't worry Yun. ", this was Mingi's voice now. " He'll be home in no time. "

" Ok then. I'll call you when San returns. I love you. ", I say.

" I love you too babe. ", he replies and I wait for him to hang up the call. When he does, I go back to my room to get a few more hours of sleep. I had to open the cafe early in the morning, I needed to get some rest.

I hope San is safe, is the last thought that crosses my mind before I drift off into deep sleep.

[ San ]

I wake up when I feel rays of sunshine hits my face. The curtains are partially closed, so the sunlight only reaches me, not waking Wooyoung.

I slowly get off the bed, making sure not to wake up Wooyoung and I walk over to the balcony, turning my phone on. It switched off by itself and I didn't know how. I didn't use my phone lately.

I see sixty missed calls, thirty unread messages and all of them were from Yunho. I suddenly realise that I didn't inform Yunho where I was. He would have been worried sick. I immediately dial his number and after a few rings, he picks up.

" Hello, San? "

" Hey, sorry about not calling you yesterday. I know I should have told you where I was. I'm at Wooyoung's place now. I'll be back in time for my shift, don't worry. "

" CHOI FUCKING SAN! I WAS DEAD WORRIED ABOUT YOU. NO ONE HERE KNOWS YOU AND YOU'RE NEW TO THIS PLACE! YOU COULD'VE AT LEAST LEFT ME A TEXT! ", he screamed into the phone. I think my ears were damaged at this point.

" Oh my god. Calm down. I'm fine. My phone died, I don't know how. I'm sorry. I'll make sure this won't happen again. ", I say, sighing and making sure Wooyoung does not wake up to Yunho's screams.

" Ugh fine, just get here fast and if you're repeating this again, I will send you back straight to where you came from. I'm not kidding. ", he sounds exhausted and frustrated, I kinda felt bad for doing this.

I hang up the phone agreeing to Yunho.

" Who was on the phone? "

I turn around to the voice and I see Wooyoung leaning against the doorframe. He smiles and walks towards me. He stands beside me and rests his arms against the railings.

" Hey, you're up.  Yeah anyways, it was Yunho on the phone, I called to let him know that I was at your place. I sort of forgot to tell him where I was and he freaked out. ", I say, looking at Wooyoung who seemed to be enjoying the view of the sunrise.

" Ah, that's totally understandable. You're new to this place and it's his responsibility to take care of you so it's not surprising he freaked out like that. ", he says chuckling.

" Yeah, I guess. "

" Hey, I'm starving, you up for some pancakes, with some coffee on the side? ", Wooyoung asks, stretching his arms out and yawning, rubbing his stomach.

" I think I'll take the coffee. I did like sweets when I was young but I ate too many since my parents spoiled me by buying me whatever I asked for. Soon, I ended up with a lot of dental problems so I stopped eating sweets to get rid of it. It wasn't a big deal. I did crave for sweets sometimes but I controlled myself somehow. Now I don't crave for them anymore. "

" Ah, too bad. I can't believe you were actually obsessed with sweets at some point. Anyways, your coffee's coming right up. You can brush with the extra toothbrush I kept in the bathroom. ", Wooyoung says, while I notice him seem more awake hearing my story.

I brush my teeth fast and I walk into the dining room. The aroma of fresh pancakes and coffee filled the room. Wooyoung slides me the cup of black coffee and starts decorating his pancakes with whipped cream. He starts eating it steadily and soon gobbled up the entire dish.

I notice that a tiny stain of whipped cream remained at the bottom of his lip and I reach over the table to wipe the stain away. Suddenly, I sense a grip of Wooyoung's hand over mine.

" What are you doing? ", He asks, with his mouth half filled with food.

" You got something on your face. Let me help you . You can continue eating."

He lets go of my hand and I wipe away the stain from his face. We look into each other's eyes and I feel my heart racing faster, minute by minute. What is Wooyoung doing to my heart?
