[Heechul's Pov]

“Good morning, Sir!” 

​​​​​​Jini's voice echoed inside the shop and caused me to look up even though I was busy wearing my apron and nametag. He slowly approached me and my heart skipped a beat as our eyes finally met. I was lost, too stunned to speak but back to my senses when he started talking.

“Good Morning.” He softly greeted me. I shook my head, brushing off my thoughts and flashed a smile on my face.

“He might hear you!” I said, slightly turning my head on him and brought my attention back to Jini. 

“I knew it! Well, I can't blame you.. He's fine as hell and the way he looks at you, argh!!” She said, lowering her voice.

“The way he looks at me?”

“Why is she running?” He asked, I lifte
