the bell rang as the school ends, the students were crowding their lockers. "sunggyu-ah!" soomi screamed as sunggyu looked back at her slinging his white bag on his broad shoulder "where's jieun?" she asked him "i'm here" jieun appeared from behind us

"oh jieun-ah! let's visit L.joe oppa" soomi looked back at her and cheered as she lead them outside the building just then key oppa greeted us, all the eyes were on us

"soomi-ah~ let's go home together!" he hugged her as soomi quickly pushed him away "oppa!" she hissed pretended not to know him.. soomi blushed, she really wanted to hide herself from him like somehow being invisible so that key won't see her

"soomii~~" key faked a cry as soomi walked away from him. taemin also avoided him "noona.. i'm so embarassed by hyung" taemin whispered slowly to her "me too" soomi whispered back but then key swung his arms around her and taemin

"what did you guys whispered just now?" key asked "nothing.." they both said, their shoulder tensed with the touch of their brother "okay" key released his hands and patted his dongsaeng's heads

"i wanted to go to byunghyun's oppa cafe today, tell omma, okay?" soomi said to key and taemin "i want to join as well!~" key skipped at soomi as she placed a hand infront of his face, stopping him "no. i want to spend some quality time with byunghyun oppa. don't bother us" she glared at him as key pouted

"wait--- you're not going with that jerk, are you?" key looked around and fail to spot hoya, he looked back to soomi "nope" she said.

key sighed relieved "good.. but i still want to join you~~~" key hurriedly hugged her as she struggled to release herself

"taemin help!" she yelped as he quickly pushes his hyung away "phew.. bring him home, eo?" i looked back at taemin, he nodded as he dragged his hyung away "soomi! don't go home too late or i'll go there myself!" he warned. soomi gave him an apologetic smile

"nicee i always thought that key hyung was going to kill me for not telling him about you and hoya" sunggyu giggled as he looked at the now dissapearing key and taemin "you didn't tell him, right?" soomi voice rise "no!" sunggyu quickly answered "i told him to asked you himself" sunggyu said "you what--?" soomi gasped "mian~ i have no choice" sunggyu giggled "araeso.." she sighed

"should we get going?" soomi asked, jieun and sunggyu nodded "but.. i can only stay for a while.. i have my math course today" jieun slowly mumbled "that's allright! l.joe must've missed you so much!" soomi grinned

"he never looked at me.." jieun mumbled slowly "did you say something jieun?" soomi asked "nothing.." jieun faked a smile before following sunggyu and soomi. a gloomy expression was flooding her face

soomi called l.joe on their way to the cafe l.joe worked at as jieun glanced slightly at her friend

"l.joe oppa!"

"ah ye.. we're going there right now"

"ye i'm going with sunggyu and jieun"

"you'll treat us?! jinjja?!"

"gomawo!" soomi giggled before hanging up.

"what did he say?" sunggyu asked "he said he'll be taking a break once we got there" soomi replied "jinjjayo?" sunggyu awed "yeaph! and he'll be treating us" soomi cheered "daebak!" sunggyu beamed

ring~

the bell on the door jingled as we entered the cafe. the cafe looked very vintage with a luxurious black grand piano on its corner. just by the look, it's the kind of cafe which only employs good looking guys, and of course, L.joe was very welcome.

"soomi!" L.joe greeted as he quickly placed us in the best seat by the corner "master! can i take the break now?" l.joe took off his brown apron and hung it on the drawer by the cashier, his boss nodded and gave us a warm smile "kamsahamnida" l.joe bowed before rushing to us.

soomi sat beside sunggyu as l.joe slipped himself beside jieun "sunggyu jieun!" he greeted them as sunggyu and jieun put on a slight smile "anyeonghaeseyo" they bowed politely "hey hey.. just speak banmal (informal)! it's not like we're strangers" he smiled

"what do you guys want to drink?" he asked us, giving us the menu. we flipped the pages of the menu trying to figure out what to drink "umm.. americano for me" sunggyu looked at the menu and decide directly

then l.joe looked at soomi "what about you? camomile latte? your favourite, isn't it?" he giggled as soomi gave him a smile "you knew best" he smiled at her warmly while soomi closed the menu, returning it to him.

jieun heart flinched looking at soomi and l.joe as she accidentally dropped her phone upon her own clumsiness "ah.." she reached for her phone under the table but before she did, l.joe has bended down and take the phone for her

"here" he slid the phone to her hand as he slighly smiled at her, not as wide as he did earlier to soomi but it was enough to give jieun a moment of warmness "gomawo" she flushed

"so.. jieun what do you want?" l.joe looked at her as she quickly dodged his eyes "i.. i'll have camomile latte as well.." she shyly said. we all looked at jieun *did jieun just ordered.. camomile?* soomi and sunggyu furrowed their eyes 

"i thought you hated camomile" l.joe looked at jieun confusely "i.. i want to try to like camomile.. " her sweet voice mumbled as she fixed her glasses

l.joe flashed her a quick smile and sighed "all right then.. i'll have.. " he flipped through the pages and stopped at the very last page "..caffe latte" he wrote down the last order before he stood up and gave the drink order to the other waiter and pointed at our table. the waiter smiled and nodded, l.joe walked back to us and sat

"so.. where should we start talking?" he laughed awkwardly

------

the waiter brought us the drink. we all sip in our own drinks and chattered "hyung do you have a girlfriend?" sunggyu asked teasingly "nope" l.joe answered quick

"do you like a girl right now?" sunggyu didn't know why would he bring up such topic, all he knew is that soomi was the only girl he cared of, but sunggyu wasn't sure if that 'care' l.joe gave her was as a friend or something else..

"i do like someone.. but that girl is to dense to realize that" l.joe chuckled. jieun drifted her eyes towards soomi who didn't seemed to realize what l.joe meant "jinjja? woah.. oppa is a nice guy, i'm sure that girl would like you too" soomi grinned and gave him a thums up

"i hope so.." l.joe smiled bitterly as he looked at soomi. jieun quickly looked away from soomi as she fiddled with the straw, not even trying to drink *i hate camomile.. i don't know why i even ordered this!* jieun pouted.

*so he did like her* sunggyu's heart fell into pieces.

he felt the conversation are getting serious with l.joe and decided to change the topic "what about you, jieun?"

jieun gasped as sunggyu throw her a question, their eyes focused on jieun as she sweat. jieun wasn't suited to be the center of attention, she's very shy "do you like someone, jieun-ah?" l.joe eyes popped out as if he never heard of it before. jieun blushed as she looked away.

"i.." when jieun opened , her phone vibrates, she quickly answered the phone "omma.. the teacher already came? i'm going home now.. mianhae.. ye.. " jieun locked her phone as she slipped it back to her bag

"mianhae.. i have to go home first" she politely bowed before leaving "jieun ah!" l.joe called.

jieun eyes widened as her heart beats faster. she turned around and look at l.joe "your drink, you can bring it home" he smiled as he handed her the drink. jieun slightly blushed before taking the drink on his hand "gomawo" l.joe patted her head slowly "no probs" jieun smiled to herself.

"go on.. drink it" l.joe looked at the drink and then to jieun. she took a sip from her drink and raised her eyebrow *strawberry milkshake?* "uhm.. oppa.. i thought i ordered camomile latte" she looked at byunghyun who only smiled

"i thought you liked strawberry milkshake.." he gave her a small grin as jieun's face reddened *so he knew..* she beamed and secretly smiled to herself

"gomawo" she whispered before she waved goodbye and left.

------------------------***------------------------------

jieun looked back to the three who laughed to each other inside the cafe

"how long should i keep this feelings to myself..?" she eyed l.joe as he happily grin at soomi. her heart started to ached as she gripped onto it 

"oppa.. after all these time, i still like you.." she mumbled to herself. she drifted her eyes away from them before walking home.
