The next day, Soomin arrived early at the shop just in time to help the other employees get ready for opening hours.

“Where is Hana?” Soomin looked around

“She’ll come soon, she is a bit tardy” one employee said

“Oh. Let me help you with that” Soomin said and helped with carrying the sign out

While waiting for the customers to arrive, Soomin was busy cleaning the floor

“Omo! Sorry I’m late” Hana bowed as she came through the door

The other employees rolled their eyes, “You’re always late”

Soomin smiled at her, “Morning”

Hana waved at Soomin, “You’re here early”

“Good for her, she comes before opening hours” Soomin’s boss said

Hana made a face making Soomin laugh

Suddenly, everyone heard the door open. All of them looked at the early customer. Soomin automatically recognize the customer, *Hoya oppa*

“Um, I’m looking for my cousin, Lee Soomin” a familiar voice asked

Soomin got up and went to Hoya, “Yes oppa?”

“Me and Sungyeol are going to be late tonight. After you finish your work here, you should cook up dinner for you and Sungjong” Hoya said

“Where are you going tonight?” Soomin asked

“I got a second job as bouncer at a small bar up to midnight. Sungyeol and his classmates have a trip outside of Seoul and has to work overtime in his part time job. He’ll be leaving after lunch. You guys don’t have to wait for us. Sleep when you feel sleepily ” Hoya said

 “That’s all! I’m going now” Hoya said and ran off the door

“Take care” Soomin shouted

Hoya nodded and turned to wave at Soomin who was called by her boss. Since Hoya’s eyes were off the road, he didn’t see the guy infront of him. The two of them collided and both of their things fell on the floor

“Mianhae” both of them said as they picked out their things

Hoya finished getting his things and looked up to see a familiar face, *He looks like- OMO!* His eyes widened to see his cousin’s old boyfriend Kim Myungsoo, “OMO!” Hoya gaped

The guy raised his head and his eyes widened too, “Lee Ho Won!” Myungsoo too recognized him

Hoya manage to show a smile, “Myungsoo, long time no see, how have you been?” He asked

*You know, still the same, missing Soomin* Myungsoo thought, “Fine. How about you? You look like you just saw a friend here?” He asked

“Yeah” Hoya nodded, *To tell, or not to tell?* “Don’t you have school today?” Hoya asked

“It’s Saturday” Myungsoo said

“Oh” Hoya said

“You’re not busy or going somewhere aren’t you?” Myungsoo said

“Why?” Hoya asked

“I was just going to have some coffee in that Coffee shop over there” Myungsoo pointed at the coffee shop Soomin works at

Hoya’s eyes widened, *Don’t tell me he knows*

“My brother have been there before and he told me that their food taste good” Myungsoo said

“You mean Kim Sunggyu?” Hoya asked

“He is my only brother” Myungsoo said

*So he doesn’t know. But Sunggyu should’ve recognized Soomin. Either he was too busy, or Soomin was out of his sight* Hoya thought

“So, I’ll be going now, see next time hyung” Myungsoo said and was about to go to the coffee shop

“OUCH!” Hoya shouted and put his hand on his stomach to divert Myungsoo’s attention

“Hyung. Are you ok?” Myungsoo went over to Hoya

“I’m fine-OUCH! I think it’s just something I ate” Hoya said, *Just take me anywhere and forget about this place*

“Omo. Is there a nearby clinic here?” Myungsoo asked

Hoya shook his head, “Just take me to the hospital near Sungyeol’s school”

“Araso. Just try to hold the pain. TAXI!” Myungsoo called

-

Hoya was in one room with Sungyeol, while Myungsoo was outside the room, waiting

“I just did it to divert Myungsoo from the shop. He might have seen Soomin” Hoya said

“We’ll talk about this later” Sungyeol said and went out of the room to Myungsoo

“Hey” Sungyeol smiled at Myungsoo, “Long time no see”

“Yeah. Long time no see. How’s Hoya?” Myungsoo asked

“He just ate something bad this morning, he’ll be alright” Sungyeol said, “Sorry If I took some of your time”

Myungsoo nodded, “It’s ok”

“Thanks anyways” Sungyeol said

Myungsoo nodded again and began walking away.

Sungyeol sighed and went back to the room
