~Time skip: 1 week~

I wiped down the table then reorganized the objects. "Hey, could you move a little faster?" I groaned as Hyunjae always felt the need to boss me around as he's only worked here longer than I have. "I still can't believe that famous CEO woman got labeled as a sex offender. Whoever it was has serious balls." I quietly thanked him for the compliment then moved on to the next and last table. The door opened and another employee with the afternoon shift walked in. "Hey, Chang." "Hey." I couldn't help but wonder how Eric was doing back at the company. Is he dating Sangyeon now? He hasn't talked to me ever since I left, not that I made much effort. How could I since I was busy changing my life around? The least he could've done was check up on me.

"Hey! Earth to Changmin!" "Huh?" "You have company." I turned to where he was pointing and saw Jacob standing by the door looking at me. "Oh." I handed the rag to Juyeon then made my way over to Jacob. "Sorry to disturb you during work." "It's okay. What's up?" "Are you busy after work? I want to take you out somewhere." "I'm available. Should I meet you or...?" "I'll come here and get you." I couldn't help but smile as it had been awhile since he initiated a date. "I'll stay for a bit, if you don't mind." "Not at all." He takes a seat at one of the tables then starts to scroll on his phone. Someone pulled me over to the side and whispered in my ear. "Who is that cutie?"

"Well, that cutie is my boyfriend." Hyunjae sucked his teeth then sighed. "The good ones are always taken." Juyeon walked past us as I assumed he went to go post Jacob's order. "Hey, Juyeon. You dating anyone?" "Yep. Wonderful girl. I swear, she's so tiny and cute. I really just want to put her in my pocket." "Can we meet her one day?" "If she's available." "I'm really the only single guy here." I couldn't help but laugh at his childish side appearing. More people started coming in, which gave me little time to talk to Jacob. As I served an order, I noticed Jacob had just left out the door. "He didn't even say goodbye..." I sighed then felt something tickling my throat. I drank some water then noticed the tickling had disappeared. The rest of the day carried on with me serving, taking orders and cleaning tables.

I quietly sat at one of the tables as I waited for Jacob to come by. "See you tomorrow, Chang." "Later." They had left and I was left in a rather quiet shop. I looked at the time on my phone and wondered if he was running late. "Hey, you're still here?" I looked up and saw one of the night shift workers sit down opposite of me. "Yep." "Maybe you should go home." "Did Hyunjae tell you, Shiro?" "You know he's a blabbermouth." I lightly banged my head against the table then looked at him. "Maybe I will, but I'll wait a bit more." He sighed, stood up then walked away. I really wanted to go home, but I had hope that he was just running late. 20 minutes had passed and still no Jacob. "I guess he forgot..." I sighed then headed towards the door. "Have a good night." "Thank you, Eunyong."

I looked at my phone once more to see if I got a text or a missed call. I saw neither. I felt something tickling my throat then proceeded to cough. "P-Petals...?" I stared at the daises on the ground, unable to move forward. "It can't be...We love each other..." I hurried home as I didn't want to be seen crying in public.
