The ME Diary

"Your order will be right here sir." I say to the man before me.

When I was about to walk away my arm get's grabbed and I get dragged away. A stops and looks at me.

"He scares me." She looks at Kai who is eating inside.

"Aigoo A you scared me! Did he try to kiss you again?" I ask wiggling my arm free to write down the rest of the order I had to deliver to the kitchen.

"No! That's the thing! He grabbed my arm like a maniac and instead of insisting on a kiss he told me he missed me!" A seemed in a little panic and I got why.

"Since when did he become human?" I say turning around to also look at Kai. "Pity we missed that milestone." I walk towards the kitchen to deliver the note.

"Right? I wasn't prepared for that Lies it's like my world turned around. And I called him Ken on top of that!" She says following me with another order.

"Ow wauw well done twin." I laugh a little. "But I guess he already got what he wanted so bad so it's not a little like with food."

A frowns at me. "You compare that with food?" Having to wait for all the food I sit down at the bar next to Mark. We smile a little.

"Yah, I mean when you want something real bad like we have the cravings for Skittles sometimes and just can't stop thinking about it until you had few. When you had a few it's like that craving goes down for a little while so you can go a little more easy on in but you also had the taste of it again so now you won't stop till the bag is empty. That's what Kai is doing." I explain drawing it out on a napkin.

"What?" A asks looking at the napkin again. I sigh.

"Your those skittles to Kai." She throws away the napkin which Mark, I have to admit, caught skillfully.

A slammed her head in to the bar whining. "How will I ever eat skittles again. And where did you get so smart? Stole a man's brain to figure that out? Got hit by a car and you're temporarily smart?"

I laugh and hit her with her own notebook. "Hey! I got rated very high in school okay! I just never did anything with it."

The bell of the kitchen goes. Time for mooore work. A goes before me to gather the food and when I'm about to Mark calls out.

"I was wondering, I have a free day next week again and maybe you would like to do something together?"

I stare at him for a little. "Did you just ask me out?" I bluntly say.

He smiles and continues to arrange the clean glasses. "Weren't you the one who got rated high in school and had an easy time figuring Kai out?"

The bell of the kitchen rang again so I said I'll come back on it and went.

Ofcourse that was easy for me because it's always easy to see what is happening right under another's nose. But when it comes to seeing that thing with yourself it becomes a lot harder then you think. Just as I can see if a guy suits A or not, I know if he is good or not but when it comes to myself I suck and fall for the guy's I absolutely shouldn't fall for.

Anyway, this needed to be discussed with A. She had been shipping me with Mark from the beginning I know that very well but I never really thought that this weird atmosphere between us on the job could actually mean something.

Rush hour seemed to be over and as always Kai was still here staring A's butt off.

I slide down in the seat next to him not having anything to do anyway. I didn't know if it was smart to ask for help with the same person that kissed my twin and on top of that made her crazy plus right in front of the person I was going to talk about but hey, everybody makes mistakes right?

I slam my head on the table as I whine. I feel Kai pet my back. "You in trouble Lies? Can your future brother-in-law help you?" I look up from the table a brow raised.

"Future brother-in-law? Your not jumping a few steps either are you?" I say sarcastically.

He just smiles. Was I really about to do this? Well obvious or I wouldn't be sitting here.

"Kai, Mark kind of sort of asked me out." He slammed me on the back.

"Good catch! Go for it!" I just give him the dryest look I have in my arsenal.

He bites his lip. "That isn't a good thing then?"

I sigh. "Guys really don't understand things like that do they? Why did I wanted an opinion of a guy." He shrugged.

"I haven't answered him yet. And now how am I supposed to behave to him? I don't know what he expects." I whine.

"Behave? What about like you always do?" Kai says sipping his drink.

I slap the back of his head. "Why should I do that? I have no idea what to answer yet. I might give him the wrong signals if I act normal to him." Kai snickers.

"You girls and those complicated ways of thinking always. What is so hard about this? The guy seems legit about it and asked you out. You considered it right?" He asks leaning in curious.

I stay silent biting my lip. Consider it. Did I? I guess I did?

"So that means you at least thought about spending a day with the man. Now it's easy, just look if you want to really spend the day with him or not and then you have your answer." Easy he calls it.

"So that's how guys think hu?" I asked him.

"Pretty much yah. We keep it simple." He kicks back placing his feet on the table.

I push them off and look at him. "So what is your easy strategy with A then?" He almost chokes in his drink.

I smile knowing he will never answer anyway I leave it at that and move to the client that just walked in. As I pass Mark the conversation goes through my head again. Is it that simple?

Then I remember the text from Hyuk. I shake my head and out on my smile. No time for this now. As I bring the order to the kitchen I ditch my phone in a corner of the bar. This way I wasn't going to be tempted to look at the text again.

It was pretty well hidden so I thought nobody could see it either. Even if they did, A was the only one knowing my password anyway. The text was save.
