Part 1

Seoyeon walked in to The Java Hut to get her usual coffee before going to work. She waited in line as the guy in front of her placed his order.

"...And four iced Americanos" he said with a sigh.

"That will be 31,881 won" the cashier told him.

He reached for his wallet and realized it wasn't there. "Oh, shit" he mumbled to himself. "I'll be right back. I just have to get some cash from the guys" he smiled and took off.

Seoyeon walked up to the counter and said "Hi Eunji!"

"Hi Seoyeon" the cashier smiled.

"Can I get my usual?"

The cashier looked to where the guy had run off to. "My register is tied up right now."

Seoyeon looked at her watch and said "Just add my coffee to their order" she said as she handed Eunji her credit card.

Eunji was shocked. "Are you sure? There are seven coffees on that order!"

"Its fine" Seoyeon smiled. "I can afford to do it this one time. Besides, Christmas is coming up. It would be a nice surprise present, don't you think?"

The cashier smiled and said "You are too nice sometimes" as she added the coffee. Then she handed Seoyeon her card and receipt and said "Your coffee will be right up." She ran over to assist in making the coffees and ran back with the one for Seoyeon. "Have a good day!"

"Thanks Eunji!" she said as she grabbed the coffee and left.

While all this took place, the guy who had run back to the table was busy trying to collect money. "Guys! I forgot my wallet. You got any cash?"

The guys at the table all sigh. "Myungsoo, you said you were paying today" Woohyun complained.

"I know. I'm sorry. I'll pay you guys back when we get back to the dorm." The guys all begrudgingly pulled out their wallets and began to pool their money.

Suddenly, Sungyeol tossed Myungsoo his wallet and said "Take whatever you need... I'll be right back." He ran towards the entrance and out the front door after the girl who had just left. "Seoyeon?" he called out to her.

Seoyeon turned around and was surprised "Yeol! Is that really you?"

"Wow, I never thought I'd run into you here" he laughed.

"Same here" she chuckled. "What have you been up to?"

"Busy working" he replied.

"Ahhh, me too." Suddenly her phone began to ring. She looked at the display and said "Sorry Yeol, but I got to take this."

"Go ahead" he replied with a smile.

Meanwhile, Myungsoo finally gathered enough money and ran back to the register. "Here you go" he said as he held out the money.

"That is okay" the cashier replied. "The order has already been paid for."

"What?" Myungsoo was shocked. "By who?"

"One of our regular customers thought it would be a nice Christmas present for you and paid for your order." She then turned around and brought over the tray of drinks.

"Thanks" he said, still in a daze. Then he grabbed the tray and walked back over to the table.

Outside, Sungyeol waited while Seoyeon spoke on the phone. "Okay, I'll be right there" she said as she hung up. She turned to Sungyeol and said "I'm sorry, but I've got to go. That was my boss. Apparently, they need me at work right now."

Sungyeol smiled. "That's okay! But... do you think I could get your number before you go?"

Seoyeon laughed "Of course!" Sungyeol handed her his phone and she quickly entered her number. Then she gave him a hug and said "I'll see you!" as she took off.

Sungyeol quickly saved her number and then walked back into the café with a dumb grin plastered on his face.

"What's gotten into him?" Sunggyu asked the other guys, but all they did was shake their heads and shrug their shoulders in response.
