Half a cup of Patience and a Teaspoon of Hope

Description

Pairing: EunHae

Prompt: Hyukjae owns a coffee shop and employs Donghae who is hopeless.

Inspired by: Aaron's "one out of two"

A one four shot for the lovely haeinred as she is an absolute legend. Mostly written whilst I was in Vietnam on my iPad so please excuse any errors !

 

Foreword

Hyukjae impatiently straightened up shirt as he watched the second hand of the clock tick by. It was moving at an excruciatingly slow pace but with every seeminly deafening tick it was nearing that time.

The awaited moment was more important to him then any birthday and worryingly more important then the birth of his very dear nephew.  The world could even end and he wouldn't regret a thing as long as he could live in that very moment he was awaiting.

It was the time he hoped that his crush would waltz through the doors of his coffee shop.

Yes he was that corny and lame.

But only Donghae, only ever for Donghae.

Chapter 4: I really loved this story, it was cute but had the necessary angst, idk exactly why, but even though i really like both endings, i rather like it better the first one, idk, even if it's a little more angsty i think is more... realistic, like... it was most probably hae's grandpa's died due to his condition, and i love how it ended, like Hae and Hyuk together and happy even though they didn't fulfill their first dream, they got new ones and they got a family and became true other kind of dream. I love that Hae became a chef with Wookie~!
That doesn't mean i didn't like the second one, at first i thought it was a little too happy when Grandpa became better and all that, but then came troubles with Hae being too busy, and then Jeno's parents died, and all that, and that makes like it more, cause even though it was happier it wasn't idealistic and all unicorns and stuff like that.
The thing that like in both is that even though they were different there were things that were kept, like someone died, in one Hae's grandpa, in other, Jeno's parents, and the fact that they weren't nice people or nice parents. I really like that.

Srsly, i really like this, thank you so much for sharing it~~

Chapter 4: I loved the imagery of Jeno sitting with a pair of sunnies and looking like he owned the place !!! If Kyu wasn't already in the fic I would've said he should grew up like him ! But *sigh*, yet again Jeno stole the show again for me ... I'm not sure why tbh, maybe cause since he's a kid everything he does is cute but sometimes when our boys are playing too 'young' I raise my eyebrows at the act. Oh btw I'm kinda surprised with how you mad Jeno's rents mean again this time, I thought you would make them nice ppl. Cause the only thing I didn't really agree is how Hae's gramps talked about Jeno's rents like that to Hyuk at their funeral :O

But overally it was a fantastic read Princess !!! I know you've placed a lot of time into this and its such a cute fic that if I had a cafe readlist, this would def be in it <333

Chapter 4: This is such a beautiful story. ;__; it really touched me in a way a story hasn't in a long time. The fluff warmed my heart and Jeno was just so cute. This made me really really happy <3 Thank you for such a lovely story my dear...I'm going to sleep with a smile on my fave because of this. (':

Chapter 4: love both of the ending so muchhh ;;; (since in both ends, donghae and hyukjae are together so I love it alr~) I prefer the other one actually since it shows how strong donghae actually is, but I dont want donghae's grandparent die TTT and in this version we can see how insecure hyukjae is. So I guess, both ends have their own perks <333 thanks for sharing~

Chapter 4: Both endings were good but I like this one better since the only ones that pass away are Jeno's parents and Grandfather is finally awake and everyone gets their dream jobs :D Thanks for the Great Story <3
