A barista in a café stumbles over a black-haired artist often ordering the same: a cup of plain black coffee. 

When she ventures to enter his life, who makes her heart flutter like no other, life slaps back with a "not too fast". She discovers his secret that threatens to tear their bond apart, and then she needs to pick whether to follow her heart or do the right thing: staying away. 

Could she not be immoral for once to keep the smile on her face?

A cup of latte was what started their story on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. Matt, a college student who was working as a barista, didn't see it coming. It all happened too fast. He never expected that on that very day, a handsome young man would walk into the shop and took his heart away. But little did Matt know that he had fallen for the man he was forbidden to love. It would be extremely unprofessional for him to nurture these feelings, but by the time he realized that, it was already too late to back away. Through many twists and turns, through each small step, they slowly discovered what their relationship truly was and what they meant to each other. And the journey they both went on, it was like the latte that started everything-it has not only the sweetness of milk and cream, but also the hidden bitterness of coffee. __________ ◇ Featured in Wattpad StoriesUndiscovered's Love Is In The Air reading list - from March 1st to March 28th, 2020. ◇ Featured in Wattpad ContemporaryLit's Contemporary Romance reading list
