Personality

 

You've got to enjoy life, or else you'll end up wasting it 

Mei Zhen loves to play around and doesn't take anything seriously for most of the time. This attitude of hers often receives scorns and scowls from others from the high society stating that it is such a disgrace. Due to the fact of being the only girl in the family, she is treated like a boy by her brothers ever since she was a child. She loves nothing more than spending her time with her brothers who are now adults and busy men. They have become mature and wise whereas Mei is still the playful 20-year-old girl who acts like she is still 16. Having a good time is her priority that her studies is always forgotten.

 

In this world, strength is just an illusion because there are more important things

Adventure. That one word means a lot to her. She likes it more than the word 'love'. Mei's life is incomplete without the existence of adventure which is an important spice in her life. She loves having adventure alongside her brothers and have been to 12 countries when she was just 14. She never uses the money that her father gave her never asks for more which gives her both the money and lectures from the older man who always pampers his only daughter. While other girls use their money on clothes and cosmetics, Mei uses hers on various books about various countries especially the countries that she is interested in. She just loves going to new places, exploring them and meets the people there.

 

I'm not stupid, I'm just too lazy to show how smart I am.

Mei is born with a natural smart brain. While other kids at age 5 plays around with their toys, Mei has learnt how to write and read essays as well as calculate math that is originally for kids at the age of 9. She is able to memorize things easily and will still remember them many years later. However, she was placed in the second to last class during her senior year in high school because of her many F's in her test marks. She is just too lazy to study back then and even now she refuses to continue her studies anywhere. Studying is boredom to her and boredom cannot exist in her life. She feels suffocated when she has to study in her room because she doesn't like being in closed place too much. Outdoors are so much better. 

 

Nothing good can come by rejecting yourself

She never feel confident about her body and face but that doesn't mean that she hates herself. It just that she feels that her body is more to the thinner side unlike her friend who has a nice curve chest. Mei occasionally feels jealous towards her friend but never voice it out. However, she takes pride of her eyes which she inherited from her mother. Mei sometimes feels insecure about herself and what people think of her but she keeps a strong front so that others can't see her weakness. No one ever compliment her beauty nor her smartness. All they see is the amount of money her family has and that's why Mei never bother to tell her insecurities to anyone except for her best friend and brothers.

Mei Zhen is born in a rather wealthy family and she has been living off her parent's money for the past 20 years. Her future has been planned even when she was just in her mother's womb.

Mei is aware of this but she knows that she couldn't fight her parents about it because she is already engaged to the guy even though she has never meet him yet. At a young age in elementary school and middle school, she was always the top in her school that every students and teachers know her.

 

She is her father's baby doll and is always given extra attention from him. He wants her to have the best in everything even in her marriage. His beloved soulmate died after only six years given birth to Mei and and he regretted his actions on neglecting his wife for his work. Therefore, he made a decision to not make the same mistake to Mei and he does his best to ensure her happiness. However, a few months after Mei turned 19, Mei told him her decision to live by herself for a few years before her marriage. She wants to enjoy her short free life as much as she can without any help or money from her family. She rents an apartment near her second brother's because it's a part of the condition she has to follow in order to be free. After a few days searching for a suitable job, she came across Jardin Cafe and decided to work there.

Name : Oh Sehun | EXO 

Age : 19

Birthday : 12 April 1994

Personality : Cold, unfriendly, rude - those are the impression people often get when they know Sehun. Not that he cares anyway. Sehun is the type of guy who won't smile when he is around the people who are not close to him. The only people who he is comfortable with is his close peers especially Luhan, his 4 years older best friend. They know that underneath the cold facade he puts on, Sehun is actually a warm guy with a cute behavior and great obsession towards chocolate bubble tea and chocolate frappuccino. He is the kind of guy who refuses to try new things that will get him out of his comfort zone. However, Luhan has predicted that Sehun will be wiling to change that when he meets the one he truly loves. At the age of 16, he left his house after he found out that he is engaged to a stranger and so he moved in into Luhan's apartment which is situated on the same floor as Mei's. He refuses to move back to his own house unless the engagement is canceled but his strict parents are not going to let that happen so they let him stay at Luhan's apartment whom they trust before Sehun has to marry his fiancee at the age of 21.  

 

First Meeting : Sehun and his peers often goes to XOXO Bar on every Friday nights to enjoy their time [Sehun manages to get in due to the fact that he is the company's heir's fiancee]. On one of those nights, he meets a stranger who is almost the total opposite of him and his ideal type. She wore a pink, cute dress and smiles to every people she meets. She wore a PINK dress. PINK. Sehun hates bright colors the most and she was wearing it. He made sure to never cross his way with the girl ever again but luck was not on his side on that night.

 

Sehun accidentally bumped into the girl which made the cocktail she was holding, splashed on both of them. The girl,who is actually Mei Zhen, was shocked and immediately apologized to Sehun but Sehun was so furious that he shouted some rude, vulgar words at her. That was when he saw her eyes and was captivated by them but those eyes was filled with anger and a second after that, he received a slap from the girl. Mei was angry with Sehun's rude actions and decided to leave the bar that her family's owns. When Luhan finally reached Sehun, all he saw in the younger's eyes were disbelief.  

 

Relationship : Sehun has forgotten about the girl although he still remembered her captivating eyes that seems different from others. Several months later, on one fine Sunday morning, he decided to follow Luhan to Luhan's favorite cafe which Sehun never went to before. He was curious about the cafe because Luhan kept talking about the delicious pastries they make [but Sehun knows it is not the pastries that make Luhan keeps going to the cafe EVERYDAY]. Therefore, he went to the cafe and decided to order his favorite chocolate frappuccino.

 

They were finally at the cafe and were ordering their drinks when Sehun caught the sight of a barista making their drinks efficiently. He was secretly amazed when suddenly the barista turned around and he realized that the barista is the girl he met on 'that' Friday night. While Sehun was captivated once again by her eyes, Mei was speechless to see the rude guys gaping in front her that she nearly dropped the drinks that she was holding. It took her a few seconds to pull herself together before she gave the drinks to the cashier. Seeing the precious moment, Sehun blurted out his apologies to the girl that Mei was so startled but managed to keep her cool front. She gave him a smile and a small nod before resuming her work. 

 

After their second meeting, Sehun officially becomes one of the cafe's regular customer alongside Luhan. He ordered the same things every single day which are chocolate frapppuccino and chocolate muffin and sits at the same place with Luhan where he and Luhan can see both the pastry chef and barista clearly. It took a lot of efforts for Sehun to gain barista's name and trust but a few months later, Sehun walks her home daily and even manages to exchanged phone numbers with Mei. They start dating on the year after that and are really happy for a couple of months.

 

Backup's Name : Kim Jongin | EXO

Ending : They have a blissful time for a couple of months until they broke up for some unavoidable reason. They didn't meet each other for the next four months and it is no secret that the separation is killing them both. After those four months, they finally reunites as a couple.
