Time has never moved so slowly for Tiffany as she waits for the clock to finally hit 4:30 in the afternoon. Why? Well, because this is the one chance she has to make a great impression on the girl who had unintentionally tackled her to the cold hard ground upon their first impression. Thinking this fact out loud in her mind, Tiffany could not help but question her sanity for being so eager in meeting someone who has assaulted her, albeit accidentally. 

'Wow, I must really be insane.' she thinks as she wanders into the cafe where they agreed to meet at 4:02pm, clearly too early for their meeting. Having only gotten off work and making it to the agreed location in literally two minutes, she couldn't help but think to herself, 'Wow, crazy and desperate...what have you become Hwang?' 

She takes a lonely seat at the back corner of the small building accompanied with nothing but her work bag and the phone in her hand. She feels the gnawing temptation of seeking Jessica's advice on her first actual date in years as she finally settles in her seat. 'Ah...no. I shouldn't do that, that's just absolutely sad.'

Minutes pass by and Tiffany was beginning to grow anxious at the possibility of being stood up, but that all disappeared when she hears the quiet voice in the cafe ask,
"Um excuse me, you haven't seen..."

Tiffany recognizes the very familiar voice immediately and she excitedly peeks her head to confirm if it is who she thinks it is, "Hm is that..."

"Oh Tiffany-ssi!" 

Before she knows it, Taeyeon turns her head in slow motion to see her peeking awkardly from the lonely corner. The way the short woman's hair bounces with every step she takes towards her makes Tiffany's heart skip a beat. 'Omo. Is this what a cardiac arrest feels like?!' 

In the silence, she sees Taeyeon bend down to eye level with her with those big bright eyes that she could drown in, it appears she's waiting for a reply to her greeting. 

'Dammit Hwang, reply!' she thinks to herself as she clears and replace that was hanging open with a smile.
"Oh, Annyeong Taeyeon-ssi. Please, have a seat!" 

Taeyeon smiles widely with her cute little dimple and Tiffany can't help but to feel giddy at the sight. "Ah thanks." 

"How are you, Taeyeon-ssi?" 

"Oh please, call me anything but Taeyeon-ssi! Great, which is surprising considering that it's the middle of the work week hahah. How about you?" 

'Well can I call you baby?' Tiffany thinks to herself before she replies, "I've been good too! I mean, minus the recurring moments of trauma when I go outside cause of y'know, the incident." 

Taeyeon leans her head back to laugh loudly, holding her stomach as she does so. Tiffany can't help the silly grin that takes over her face. 

"We're gonna roll with that story eh? haha" 

Tiffany raises an eyebrow up while shrugging, "I mean, it's viable." 

"True, can't really deny that. It did get me to go on a date with you." Taeyeon comments with a cheeky grin on her face.

Tiffany couldn't help the fact that her eyes snapped wide open as soon as the woman across from her said the word, "Hehe, date?" 

"You don't want it to be a date?" 

"What, no! No no no! I would love to date you- wait, I would love to go on a date with you! Oh my god, we are on a date right now and I'm loving it...uh yep. It's a date." Tiffany's entire face goes bright red and Taeyeon couldn't help but laugh while she was scolding herself. OH
