Shadow Oneshot Cafe | CLOSED | BATCH ONEHello, hah, finally I able to update. I'm sorry for being late. Uhm. I'm still trying to break my writer's block, so here, your short oneshot :) I'm sorry if you are not satisfy with this :( But, I tried my best.
“I don’t think yours is better.” Luhan leans on the wall and watches the latter from head to toe. “Seriously?” Joomyeon replies.
“I’m seriously serious..” Luhan chuckles. He comes closer and takes a glimpse of himself in the mirror. “Don’t you think you should wear like me?” Joomyeon clicks his tongue, intrinsically agrees with Luhan’s opinion. Luhan’s shirt is cooler than his.
Yellow polo shirt is not a good idea.
“Man, I bought this yesterday.” Joomyeon takes off his new polo shirt from his body and throws it on the bed. Shirtless, he opens the cupboard and search for suitable shirt for him. “What about this?”
“Hah…” Luhan sighs. “I thought you have better clothes than me.” He walks out from Joomyeon’s room and takes some clothes from his cupboard for Joomyeon.
“Choose.” Luhan comes in a second and shows them to Joomyeon.
“Uhm, I think I’ll look better in that.” Across the room, Joomyeon sees there is another option on Luhan’s chair.
“Hah?!”
**
“Yaeji!”
“Luhan!” He waves as he sees Yaeji in front of the café. Yoobi smiles besides her, straining her neck to see Joomyeon who is walking behind Luhan.
“Hey, you guys look very pretty tonight.” Luhan finds his fingers automatically intertwine with Yaeji’s as he arrives. She smiles brightly, and Yoobi thanks him.
“Joomyeon-sshi…” Yoobi playfully calls him since he is still standing behind Luhan. Joomyeon takes a peek and smiles shyly. “Why are you standing there?” Yoobi scrutinizes him. Slowly, he comes closer, and as he thought, Yoobi looks at him from head to toe and suddenly burst into laughter.
“Joomyeon, you look very casual today.” Yaeji’s smiles and pulls his hoodie. “I think this is Luhan’s, isn’t it?”
Luhan can’t help but to hold his laugh so Joomyeon wouldn’t feel bad.
“Yoobi, stop laughing.” Joomyeon pouts.
“I thought you will wear something nice. I mean, you used to wear something cool than this dear.” She pinches his cheeks.
“I... they are in the laundry.”
“All of them?” Yoobi teases.
“Yoobi…”
“Okay, okay. It’s okay. We’re just casually going out today, right? So, it’s fine.”
Joomyeon smiles, “See! Yoobi don’t care much about it. We’re just going to have dinner and watch cinema. It’s nothing much. It’s not like we are going to five starts hotel.” He talks to Luhan who keep teasing him from home until just now.
“Yoobi, this hoodie is fine, right?” Joomyeon smiles.
“Of course.” Yoobi takes a look at it once again.
“It’s mine,” Luhan interferes. Yoobi nods and says she knows.

While in the middle of taking dinner, Joomyeon goes out for a while. He bets Luhan already forgets about their plans for tonight. He excuses himself to the restroom but actually he finds himself the way out to the exit.
“Which way is it?” He tries to remember. “Left or right?” He decides to walk to the right and finds a few corners until he finds the shop that he wants to go. “It’s here, thanks God!”
“Welcome!”
“Ah, yes. Uhm, can I have…”
**
“Are you sure he’s going to the restroom? It’s been… 15 minutes, I think.” Yaeji elbowed Yoobi who is still munching a piece of meat in . “Uhm…” Yoobi does not know how to answer. “But, he said he wanted to go to the restroom.”
Luhan tries to look for him but there is no glimpse of him. ‘Well, let me take a look. You guys keep eating. I think he has stomach-ache.” Luhan laughs. He rises and asks a waitress where the restroom is.
“Joomyeon?” he pushes the door.
“Yes?” Luhan finds Joomyeon is in the middle of washing his hand.
“Man, for 15 minutes you’re still here? Yoobi is waiting for you.”
Joomyeon just chuckles and walks passing him, pulling the automatic tissue machine. “I’m done, let’s go!” He throws his hand on Luhan’s shoulder.
“Why are you sweating?” Luhan asks as he sees Joomyeon’s forehead and his hair look damp. “It’s nothing.”
As they find their seats, Joomyeon is bombarded with questions and all he answers is ‘it’s nothing’.
“You guys forget about something.” He suddenly mentions.
Yoobi and Yaeji look at each other while Luhan stops drinking his smoothie. “What is it?” he asks. Joomyeon knows this will happen, Luhan will always forget about their plan even though sometimes he is the one who initiates it first.
Joomyeon does not answer, he looks at Yoobi instead. He smiles as bright as he could.
“Wh-what is it dear?” Yoobi stammers.
Joomyeon comes out with something in his hand, a small present for Yoobi; “Congratulation for your degree graduation. I’m sorry that I couldn’t come on that day.” He places the box in front of Yoobi. Yoobi takes it and her expression is priceless. She opens it and finds her favourite perfume in the box.
“Oppa!” She feels excited, “this is the limited edition that I’m searching for! Thank you!” Joomyeon feels grateful that that little gift makes his beloved looks so happy. “I’m sorry for that little present.”
“No! What are you talking about?! I really like this, really.” Yoobi smiles. Yaeji watches them, a little bit envious of Yoobi. Joomyeon turns to look at Luhan who is dumbfounded that he does not prepare anything for Yaeji.
“What about you?” Joomyeon asks Luhan. “ Yaeji was also graduated, isn’t it?”
Luhan is speechless and guilty builds within him. “I…uh.”
Yaeji is waiting, smiling for any surprise that Luhan would give to her.
“I’m sorry, I… didn’t buy anything for you. I forgot. But, I’ll buy it later.” Luhan realizes that Yaeji’s face turns into a little bit sour, but Yaeji keeps smiling, “It’s okay.” Luhan knows that she is actually feeling disappointed.
“I’m sorry.”
“Heish! Stop joking around! Luhan, just give it already!” Joomyeon pats Luhan’s shoulder. Luhan looks at him with surprise and mutters, “What are you doing? You know I didn’t buy anything for her.”
“You make Yaeji sad now. Look at her face. Give it to her already!” Joomyeon laughs but Luhan does not get it at all. Yaeji is waiting in front of them.
“Joomyeon, stop it.” Luhan mutters again, hoping that Yaeji does not hear it. Suddenly, he feels something in his pocket as Joomyeon takes his hand and leads it into his pocket. Luhan immensely look at him. He looks at his pocket and fishes out the content; a small box with a pink ribbon around it. Luhan looks back at Joomyeon.
“What are you waiting for?”
“Luhan?” Yaeji calls. Luhan briskly look at her and, “H-here…” he shows the present to Yaeji.
“Wow! It’s slightly bigger than mine, what is it?” Joomyeon acts like he knows nothing.
“Can I open it?” Yaeji asks. “Just open it!” Yooji is getting excited, same as before.
Yaeji unties the ribbon and reveals the content.
“Ha!” she gasps in excitement. “Oh my God, you bought it!”
“Is this the one that you want so badly?”Yoobi asks. “Yes! How did you get this?” Yaeji holds Luhan’s hand. Even Luhan can’t hide his expression as he also shocks with the present.
“I like this bracelet, but I can’t find it! It’s also a limited edition. Oh dear! Thank you so much!”
Joomyeon nudges Luhan to answer her.
“Oh, uh, yeah! Welcome! No biggie dear, this is for you.” He says. Four of them are smiling brightly since it seems like everything is going so well tonight. However, Luhan sometimes gives a look at Joomyeon.
He put it in my pocket but when?
**
“When?”
“When what?”
“When did you put the gift in my pocket?”
“Oh, that! During we were in the restroom.” Joomyeon closes the front door and leads himself to the kitchen.
“Is that expensive?”
“Uhm, I don’t know. I have to check the bill later.” Joomyeon chuckles. “Are you going to pay?”
“Well, depends.” Luhan makes a face. “What?!” Joomyeon widen his eyes and laughs.
“By the way, thanks bro.” Luhan follows him to the kitchen.
“No problem, man.”
“But, when did you buy it?”
“Well…”
“Ah! That’s why you were sweating?! You ran just to buy the presents!” Luhan guesses it right.
