I gave a smile at the customer, "Here's your order." He said his thanks before leaving.

I sighed as I plopped on my--what I labeled as Jinhae's-comfortable-seat-so-don't-touch-it.

I mingled with my phone as I played games on it. I soon got bored and turned off my phone. I closed my eyes to get a little bit of rest.

Dozing off, I thought of my dream, my future. I always wanted to be a K-POP idol ever since I was a kid. I sang, danced and did everything I could to try and be a star before. My parents didn't expect their daughter, Min Jinhae, to have such talents. I then thought of my older brother who is a basketball player. He was also so good at rapping. I mean, he's like the greatest brother I could ever had. Min-

My thoughts gut cut off by the stupid ring at the door. I furrowed my eyebrows as I stand up and went to the counter to confront the person who ruined my train thoughts.

Holy crap- who's that guy?

Hohoho, I had never had a customer like that. Damn, he looks fine.

"Hey..." He shifted his eyes on my chest.

What the hell is looking at?!- oh.. my nametag.

"Jinhae?" He said, shifting his eyes back to meet my eyes. "Yes?" I tilted my head. I then realised what I'm supposed to do and regained my composure.

"Oh, welcome to StarCoffee, can I take your order?" I welcomed, the mint in my mouth flopping around causing my language to be a bit gibberish.

He looked at the menu and pointed to one, "Americano please~" He ordered, in english. Of course I understood and nodded my head afterwards.

I walked off to make his Americano, the mint succesfully melting in my mouth. When I was done, I went back to the counter to give him his Americano.

I forced a smile on my face, and gave him his order. "Thank you, please come again." He smiled back and left a tip at the 'Give us barista a tip!' jar. To be honest, it looks bad. My co-worker, Jackson, just had to put it there. He said that we could secretly put it there so that we could get extra money when it's closing time. You might ask why he's not here, it's because he had some things to take care of.

As he left, my forced smile was replaced with a blank, emotionless face. Like always, I went back to Jinhae's-comfortable-seat-so-don't-touch-it chair.

As a few more customers came, the time has come for me to close up the store. I went to the front door and flipped the sign from OPEN to CLOSED. As I did, I stretched my arms, happy that I'll be able to go home soon.

I mingled with my keys as I waited in the empty space for the elevator doors to open.

When I heard the ding, I quickly went off it, eager to go home. I inserted the key into the hole and twisted the knob. As I got in, I closed the door, dropped my stuff and instantly went into my room.

As my head hits the pillow, I instantly got knocked out cold. It was a tiring day.

[]

As I heard my alarm clock screaming into my ear, I instantly went up to get ready.

I wore my coat cause, it's so effin cold out there. I'll probably be frozen as ice if I didn't wear this!

Anyways, as I went out the elevator, I got greeted by freezing, cold air. It sent shivers down my spine. Should have brought my scarf.

I cursed at myself as I shouldn't have forgotten that damn scarf. Oh well, gotta bear with it. The walk to the cafe isn't that long anyways.

I walked to the cafe with my hands in my pockets, searching for warmness while hoping that I'll just get to the cafe already. But that isn't the case here. As I saw the cafe, I instantly ran to it, ignoring the coldness this damn situation is giving me. When I reached the door, I digged into my bag and searched for the keys. But it isn't there.

God damnit!

I scowled at the stupid door and me for forgetting one of the most important thing. I leaned against the door and soon I slid down the door and sat there, regaining the will to get up and go back to my apartment.

As I got up, THANK GOD, THE LORD! Jackson came into the scene to save the day. He looked confused when he saw me on the floor, not opening the door.

"Why are you not opening the..door?" He asked, pointing the door. "Uh..well I forgot to bring the keys.." I said, scratching the back of my neck. Jackson then sighed before going through his pockets to get the key. But oh well, things weren't also going good for him as he also forgot his spare key. "Damnit. It's not here.." Jackson looked very annoyed by the situation here.

"I'll go back" I announced as I threw my bag at him and went off. "Wait!" Jackson shouted. "Aren't you cold? Should I go instead?" He asked. "But your place is more farther away than mine.." I pointed into the distance. "You could go to my place and I'll give you my keys." I explained, getting my apartment keys from my bag. He agreed and grabbed my keys and walked off.

"I trust you with this! It's on the table in the dining room! OH! And also please grab my scarf!" I shouted at him. As he got out of my sight, I went over to the tables and sat down at one of the chairs. I placed my head on the table, feeling the very cold metal. As I felt the coldness, I instantly put my arms under.
