"you have a chance to turn back now, you know..." hongjoong said and took his official apron as he wraps it around his torso. His concerned eyes stares at the brown-haired girl who was walking back and forth nervously, rubbing both of her hands as she looks outside at the tall building that seonghwa was in.

Hongjoong had brought her and her mates to his café the next day after settling together. Hongjoong plans to gather all of them including seonghwa to meet at his café at lunch. No one had any idea why hongjoong suddenly declares a special meeting but they fortunately agreed.

Now, the 5 of them that includes byungchan and yeeun, who sits at a table not too far from their 'reserved' table. Both of them didn't want to come but hyurin insisted and they had no choice but to follow. Plus, yeeun was surprised that the hongra café was the café she keeps on bragging about to byungchan.

"you should have said that when we were at car, joong" she said and laughs nervously. Hongjoong held his hand up in defense, "sorry! The thoughts just hit" he explains while preparing the table. Various of foods was placed at the long table like a buffet. Except, this buffet has no occasion. Hyurin puts on a thin line on her lips when she saw the foods, her appetite getting slim as she sees.

I don't deserve this treatment, why is hongjoong being so persistent on this? She thoughts and looked at her best friend who was giving his fiancée a back hug. Hyurin shakes her head when she looks at the lovey-dovey couple but she couldn't lie, she was jealous.

When she changes her gaze and stares at the building outside, her once calm heart is now thumping so hard again. Questions of what ifs lingers on her mind as her breathe suddenly turns ragged, chest heaves up and down.

"I hope you accept me back, seonghwa"

"wHat do yoU MeaN YOU CAN'T COME?" Wooyoung rages, his eyes show disbelief when he looks at the older. Seonghwa closed his eyes for a mere second while rubbing his nape, "dad call in last minute and I can't refuse" he explains. Seonghwa could hear wooyoung's disappointment sigh and he also felt the disappointed with himself.

But his father said it was important, "family matters" when he heard his father said that, he scoffs in his mind knowing his father meant by, "marry matters". He really doesn't want to go, he wants to eat lunch with his friends and his new-favourite chocolate croissant and strawberry shake. However, he doesn't want to be the 'disobedient' child. So, he had no choice.

"when will it ends?" Wooyoung asked again.

"family meeting isn't like other client meetings, Wooyoung. Approximately, even when you guys are done, my ass would still be getting lectured by him" seonghwa replied. The man across him has the urge to roll his eyes again but scared that his eye sockets might fall off.

Wooyoung stands up with his both of his hands up in surrender, "I have no objections on that shit, so..." Wooyoung turns and walks towards the door. Before he exits, he looks at seonghwa once again, "I'll bring your food once I came back here." And he leaves. Going down to meet his friends.

Once Wooyoung close the door, he stares at his figure until its completely out of sight. Seonghwa lets out a loud irritated sigh, feeling annoyed for his dad to ruin his lunch break with his friends. Of course, and his favorite meal.

Grabbing his car keys and stood up before leaving his office. With continuous prayer on his heart for whatever upon him later.

Hyurin sits at one of the chairs as her legs couldn't stop shaking under the table. Its already lunchbreak, customers and those who wore office-attired customers came since Hongra café was the only café in this small town. Hongjoong was beside her as they wait for them to come. Her heart hopes for him to come too.

"my guts say he is not coming" she suddenly states while giving a nudge on hongjoong's elbow. She didn't see him but she could feel him rolling his eyes when she said that, "I swear- you and your guts. And your guts never lie. Stop saying that" hongjoong replied. It still didn't make nerves loosen as she looks around to see any sights of them.

She spoke too soon when she saw the familiar faces and her heart could burst any moment.

The 6 friends soared with their loud as they enter the café. Mingi enters first with yunho besides him, talking about some clients when they were having their meeting just now. jongho and yeosang follows behind them, talking about an unlaunched game. And last, Wooyoung runs after San as he was waiting for him before enter the café.

Soon, the once loud cheerful voices between them turns dead silent as they spot a woman that they have last seen since years ago. Mingi was the first to notice her, his mouth agapes as yunho was confused why he suddenly being like this and follows where his eyes were. He too, was surprised.

Jongho startled when he almost got in contact with his face and yunho's back.

"why in the world are yo-" his words got stuck when he saw the woman. Knowing he was the only person that knows the truth why she left. What the fuck yeosang whispered but jongho heard him vividly. He bet everyone has the same reaction when they lock eyes with her.

Wooyoung and San who finally came to the "jaw-dropping" party did the same and stood besides yunho and mingi.

Hongjoong finally came to the reunion scene and breaks the quiet atmosphere, "your eyes are not deceiving you, it's her".

Yunho was the first to break the statue character as his eyes blinks for a few times. "it-it's been 4 years..." he stutters, unable to believe that it was her.

Hyurin scratches her nape although it was not itchy, "yeah...4 years was too long..."

"stop standing and sit, you adults. Time is running out and you have to go back in an hour." Hongjoong says and the 6 boys immediately stop their slow-stopping moment and sat down. However, Wooyoung was still standing as the other sat. "Wooyoung?" hyurin cautiously said his name, knowing its been so long.

"seonghwa must have regret for not coming..."
