Monday, at school....

"Han Na!" The said person looks back. It's Chen. "Hey, Chen." She greets back without looking at him. She's collecting her folders for her next two classes. "So," Chen starts, leaning on the locker beside Han Na's.

"I have these two coupons for Starbucks, and I thought you might like it, so do you want to go to Starbucks with me after school? The place isn't far from our school." He offered, hoping inside that she'll say 'yes'. He already knows that his chance is actually bigger than when he asked other girls out.

To his utter surprise, Han Na says the opposite. "No, I'm sorry. I have to help Ms. Holmes after school." She apologizes. Chen sighs, but then he smiles. "Really? Well, that's unfortunate. I heard you like hazelnut." He says out of nowhere. Han Na furrows her eyebrows in confusion. "So?"

"They just released Hazelnut Latte yesterday. And I know because you like it, you might want to upgrade the size. And with these," he waves the coupons in front of her face. "You can upgrade to Grande for free." He shows his killer smile. Of course he came to her prepared.

Han Na's eyes sparkles after hearing that. She did hear about the new Hazelnut Latte and she has been dying to try it. Without any second thoughts, she immediately shouts, "Yes!" Chen smirks in victory, but then his smile fades away when Han Na goes back to her thinking pose.

"But about Ms. Holmes..." She mutters. Chen clicks his tongue, trying to search for another excuse. But before he could say anything, Han Na raises her shoulders. "Well, I didn't actually promise her, so I can go with you." She says, showing her grin. Yup, Hazelnut Latte is my number one priority! She shouts inwardly.

Chen sighs in relief. "Well then, see you after school!" He says, before he waves as a form of goodbye. Han Na waves back and then shifts her gaze to her locker again.

After school...

Han Na peacefully listens to the music through her earphone near the bicycle parking lots before someone taps her shoulder. When she turns around, she sees Chen. "Waiting for too long?" Chen asks before he links his arm with hers. Han Na shudders with the sudden skin contact, but then she shakes her head. "Nope. Let's go!"

They talk about a lot of things before they arrive at the Starbucks Coffee Shop. "Ladies first." Chen says, opening the door for Han Na. She giggles before she bows like a princess. "Why thank you, Mr. Kim." She replies jokingly. The latter grins and goes in after Han Na.

"You can find the seat, I'm going to order it." Chen instructs. Han Na nods and looks for two seats. Found it! It's near the window, but they're sofas, so they must be comfortable. She quickly tags Chen's seat with her bag.

After a couple of minutes, Chen comes with two cups, one in each hand. "The queue is sooo long!" He exaggerates. Han Na just giggles and utters her 'thank you'. Chen's cup then grabs her attention. "Chen, why are you ordering Green Tea, not Hazelnut?" She asks.

He shrugs his shoulders. "Don't feel like it. I want whipped cream, so..." Hearing his reply, she nods her head. She then starts to sip her Hazelnut Latte, savoring the taste of it. The corners of go up, forming a smile. Chen chuckles. "I can see you really like it." He mentions.

Han Na nods. "You will regret your decision in buying Green Tea Latte instead of this if you try it." She replies. Chen smirks mockingly, of course only joking.

Han Na suddenly gets a mischievous idea. "Oh, look!" She exclaims, pointing at a random barista. "What?" Chen shifts his gaze to the pointed person.

Quickly, she grabs Chen's straw from his cup and swipes the tip slightly to his cheek, spreading some whipped cream from his Green Tea Latte to his face. Having a contact to the cold cream, Chen turns his attention back at Han Na before he shouts at that girl.

"YA! What do you think you're doing, huh?" He shouts angrily, but still looking cute. Han Na just giggles, seeing him pouting his lips. "Mianhae." She says, still laughing. "Ya, you don't look sorry at all. Do it properly!" Chen commands just as if he's a soldier. Han Na has calmed down. She then smiles sweetly.
