Four
One Espresso and a forehead kiss to go please?
“Kim Jae Joong entered a new business venture?” jaejoong read the article sent to him by his manager. He cursed
silently, he is still wants to keep it low profiled for now, he kept on reading, he heaved a sigh, “at least the business or
the name of the shop is still unknown. Really how did they know about it?” jaejoong is talking with himself on the
subway, “talking by yourself will only puts you on a mental ward” someone sat beside him, his heart beats faster,
though it’s been a while since he last heard it, it is indeed memorable to forget. He slowly lifts his head to confirm it,
“Minha?” he said almost a whisper. “yes..” minha imitates him and giggled realizing it’s a bit creepy. Jaejoong stop
himself from pulling her into a tight hug. “h..how come you know it’s me?” jaejoong asked still not looking away from
the face he missed so much. Minha smiled “duh, who would be wearing that on the subway rather than…” she looks
around before leaning to jae’s ear “idols” she added. He chuckled when he saw how minha is looking at him from head
to toe with his disguise fully intact. “yeah, I guess you’re right” jaejoong leans on the window. Minha looked away
from him. Something in her heart just keeps on tingling. She is happy that she saw him again. after all the things that
happened to her and her family, seeing him someone lessen the burden in her heart.
Jae took a glance on minha, she is looking down at her feet, listening to music again. “care to share?” jaejoong asked.
Minha look up and smile “sure” minha put the ear bud to him, jaejoong felt sad, “In heaven?” he uttered. Minha smiled
faintly and nod. “yeah, well, I kinda feel nostalgic listening to this song” minha replied looking away from him. Jae can
sense that she is still sad probably because of her grandmother. “why are you sad?” he asked. But before minha could
reply the train stopped at her station. “Omo, I’m already here. Nice seeing you again jaejoong ssi. JYJ fighting!” she
said in a low but clear voice before heading out. Minha walked again from the subway to their old house. She decided
to sleep there already because seeing the house near her grandmother just makes her sad. Still listening to her phone,
she smile reminiscing how she and her grandma cook their favorite kimchi soup. Only her grandma can make the
kimchi soup that she likes. The taste is just so unique. “now I’m craving for it” minha whispered. She was about to
turn to the corner where their apartment is located. Suddenly someone was on her side. Out of shock she paused. She
slowly turned and sighed. “yah, minho-yah, what are you doing here? It’s past your bedtime little guy” minha kneeled
infront of her brother. “I’m waiting for you, I’m the guy so I should protect my sister” minho said only to make minha
giggled. She ruffled his hair. “aigoo, sometimes I forgot that you are so much younger than me.” Minho laughed and
hugged his sister. “I know you miss grandma, I do too, but she is in heaven now, she is happy with grandpa” minho
said. minha shed a tear, minho is just 7 years old but he talks like he is in his 30’s. “come on grandpa minho, let’s get
going omma might be looking for you” minha hold minho’s hand and started walking. Little did they know that they
have an audience. Jaejoong can’t help but to smile seeing the siblings walking hand in hand. He heard everything from
minha’s cravings for Kimchi soup to Minho’s monologue. “that kid sure is smart for his age” jaejoong chuckled. His
eyes diverted on the thing on his hand. Minha dropped her name plate on the subway, he smiled. “I think it’s time to
pay a little visit to my new shop”. Jaejoong uttered.
