"i demand you to give my angel, this cake for free!"

Hyunwoo was standing there, face emotionless with almost no movement readable from his face, serving a complaining costumer. You may wonder how and why did Hyunwoo get in this situation, well...

[Back then]
Hyunwoo was hanging out on Wonho's dorm, sitting on the wooden floor looking through all of his checklist of things he didn't bought yet and the stuff they needed. Hyunwoo let out a frustrated sigh as he ran his fingers up through his brown locks.

He retracted his attention to the list again and count the prices overall.

"Ah crap, why do college text books always cost alot" he said as he pulled his hair in frustation.

"I don't even have any money left. The only one i have are for the other things my parents gave me" he continued to ramble.

Wonho was looking at his bestfriend with pity as he hugs his sleeping boyfriend at his lap tightly, not wanting to wake up hyungwon.

"Well, why don't you ask for your parents extra allowance?" Wonho asked hesitantly.

"I don't want to give them any burden, ugh i mean. They're already struggling alot. Why can't i manage things properly" Hyunwoo rubbed his face in distress.

Wonho raised his hand to his Chin and started to think of a way to help his friend. Sure, Hyunwoo maybe dumb and sometimes can't organize things properly, but he do care about what other people think and put it into considerations. Unlike wonho who is a good organizer and usually helps Hyunwoo with organizing his stuff. Thats why Hyunwoo's at his dorm.

"Oh well, uh, i..." Wonho muttered. "Oh i got an idea! Why don't you work with me on the cafe im working at?" Wonho offered.

"Wait you worked at a cafe?" Hyunwoo raised his eyebrows.

"You don't know??? How dare you!" Wonho pouted as he throws a pillow onto Hyunwoo's face.

Hyunwoo laughed at his friend. "Ah, i guess, i don't know then" Hyunwoo said sarcasticly.

Wonho put his head on Hyungwon's shoulder looking up at the roof of their room trying to answer Hyunwoo's question.

"Well, i worked at the cafe we usually hang out at, Keopi Kong. But, i think because you're all caught up with Kihyun and and your tasks that you didn't notice it. You've been staying at your dorm alot lately" wonho added.

"Ah, im sorry then. How do i apply?" Hyunwoo asked, ignoring his other statement. Looking away.

[Present time]

Hyunwoo was standing there, with an emotionless face staring at the angry costumer demanding him to give free food because her kid is an "angel".

Well guess what, the kid was an absolute nightmare and Hyunwoo had to take the all of the blame from the mom, because he was accused of being a bad influence? Bullshit.

The kid was crying wild, he was throwing tanthrums and screaming at other costumers, and that Made some costumers having a bitter face and leaving out of the cafe, and Hyunwoo was not having it.

"I'm sorry ma'am, but for the last time, we cannot give you free food. Its against the cafe's rules" Hyunwoo, for the thousandth time, repeated his words that Made the costumer even more mad.

The costumer growled and looked around for a second then proceeded to shout these, iconic words.

"I WANT TO SPEAK WITH YOUR MANAGER"

That word caught Hyunwoo off guard. Hyunwoo is new to this job, he doesn't want him to lose it just on day one.

"N-no ma'am please don't say that, im new to this job and i don't want to be fir-"
