Chapter: Eighteen
Byeol's pov
"Unnie, your coffee" I gave Fuyu her large cup of coffee.
"Thanks Pury" she said, with a tired smile.
"I thought you had a day off yesterday Unnie, why do you look like you stayed up all night?" I asked her.
"I thought I would get my beauty sleep but guess what...my chief who's a sadist kept me in charge of fucking five more cases, so I spent all night going through the investigation records" She said, taking a sip of the coffee.
"Including this five cases, I'm already working on more than ten cases and our mission. I should report my chief for exploitation abuse!" I could see pure rage on her face.
Her phone started to ring making her groan.
"I swear if it is Mr. Satan, I'm gonna curse at him right now!" She said, taking her phone out angrily. But her face softened when she saw the contact name.
"It's not a good morning for me, Jungkook" she sighed.
"Huh, look to my left?" She looked to her left to see Jungkook standing outside waving at us from the window. I looked back at Unnie, her lips curled into a smile which surprised me.
"Yeah, I'll come out" she said, cutting the call.
"I'll be going now and don't forget to come to the hideout tonight" She said, keeping money on the table for the coffee and exited out of the cafe. She spoke with Jungkook and then they walked away.
When is a guy gonna ask me out?....I want to date!!!
I sighed, taking the money and headed towards the counter.
"Byeol, someone called from hospital saying that Hyunjin was admitted in ER. So, I have to go and you take care of the shop!" My sister said, taking her apron off.
"Sure Unnie" I said. She wore her coat and hurriedly walked out of the café.
"Byeol, why was your sister in hurry?" Haneul asked me, coming inside with two big bags full of ingredients she brought from the supermarket which was few blocks away from our café.
"She got a call from the hospital saying that Hyunjin was admitted in ER" I said.
"Shit, I hope he's okay" Haneul said.
"Me too" I said.
Anyways, I got new ideas for the new pastry, so I'm gonna be inside the kitchen all day working on it and you're gonna be my taste critic" she said.
"I love that job" I said, making her chuckle. She headed towards the kitchen and I took the orders of the customers who just came.
Till afternoon, I made drinks and served the customer their food. Between the service, I was working on finding the information about the two guys who were after haneul.
Now that less people comes here around this time, it was slow and peaceful now. I sat behind the counter, resting my head on the countertop.
"Excuse me" I heard someone tapping against the counter, I got up immediately putting on a smile.
"Good afternoon sir, what would like to or- Tae?"
"Missed me sweetheart?" Tae asked, grinning.
Yes...I missed you, your voice, your face and your smile.
"No" I lied.
"I mi-Well nevermind, I want to order two iced coffee and two red velvet pastries" he said, looking up at the menu board.
"Hmm why two?" I asked him, entering the order into the computer.
"Cause I have a date here" he said, paying for what he ordered. I couldn't help but to feel sad and jealous after hearing that.
"Well, enjoy your lovely date" I gave him a fake smile.
"But the date won't start until my sweetheart agrees" he said that making me pause.
"Huh?" I turned around to see him grinning.
"Hwang Byeol, will you go on a date with me for an hour?" He asked me, taking out a single red rose making me blush.
"Me?" I pointed at myself.
"Do you think I'm asking someone else?" He asked me.
"W-why me?" I asked him.
"Cause you're cute" he said, ruffling my hair.
"Alright, but I only got an hour to spare" I said.
"Fine with me" he smiled.
Eunji's pov
"Can I know where my husband Hwang Hyunjin is?" I asked the nurse behind the desk.
"He's right behind that curtain" she said pointing at the bed which was few steps away.
I opened the curtain and I saw my husband, laying on the bed, asleep. He had some cuts and bruises on his face and his right hand was wrapped up. There was another guy who was sitting on the stool beside him. Messy blonde hair, freckles on his face and he was wearing the same work clothes as Hyunjin. He stood up once he saw me.
"Hello, you must be Eunji Noona. I'm his friends and coworker, Felix" he bowed down.
"Hi felix, What happened to him?" I said, caressing my husband's face.
"There was a customer who was not in his sense and was harassing one of our female staff. Hyunjin was pissed so he punched that guy, the guy went all violent and they both started fighting. We stopped them before they could kill each other. But the good news is that the customer is in a really bad condition then him" Felix smiled nervously, making me laugh.
"Don't be scared of me" I said, after noticing his scared look on his face.
"Hehe sorry Noona" He scratched his neck.
"The doctor said that once hyung gets up, he can be discharged" he said.
"Thank you, can I know where the customer who hurt hyunjin is?" I asked.
"He's in the second floor, room 3, why?"
"I just wanna talk with him. Can you stay here till I come back?" I smiled.
"Sure Noona"
I went to the second floor and searched for the room. Once I found the room, I went in to see only one patient inside. He has an arm cast and his face was all bruised up and swollen. He seems to be in a call.
"I'm gonna kill that bastard who did this to me!" He growled, making me tighten my fist.
"Hello mister" I greeted him with a fake smile, he noticed me.
"I'll call you later" he said, cutting the call.
"What are you doing here, beautiful lady?" He put up on a disgusting smirk. Without saying anything, I punched him on his nose causing him to groan out of pain.
"What the fuck bitch?! Are you crazy?" He cursed.
"Maybe I am and if you touch my husband again, you'll be buried six feet under the ground" I gave him a death glare and left the room.
Back to Byeol's pov
"Are you serious? The guy thought you were a female? I can't imagine you disguising as a woman!" I cackles out loud.
"Yeona noona was on a different case so Jimin forced me to dress up like a woman to catch a criminal" he pouted.
"Do you have any photos?" I asked him.
"Nope sweetheart" he shook his head.
"Tae, why do you call me sweetheart? I don't remember meeting you when I was young" I asked him.
"Actually, I- excuse me" he said, taking his phone out.
"I'm so sorry, I have to go back but to make up for it, I'll come tomorrow same time and it will be a longer one" he said, getting up.
"Okay!" I said, standing up.
"Can I hug you?" He asked me.
"Uh...sure" I said after hesitating for a second. He came closer and hugged me, pulling me closer to his chest. I felt ecstatic and happy. I'm finally hugging him! Omg, He smells so good!!
"See ya tomorrow" he said, blowing a kiss before exiting out of the cafe. I smiled to myself, hugging myself as I recollect the hug we had.
Ooof, act normal! Don't be like a high school girl!
I slapped my cheeks and turned around. I yelped when I saw Haneul standing in front me, smirking at me.
"What?" I said, cleaning up the table.
"I see that you got yourself a date tomorrow" she wriggled her eyebrows.
"Is your new pastry ready?" I asked, trying to change the subject.
"I see what you're trying to do, but anyways yes. I've came up with three batches of different flavours and let's go try them out" she said, heading back to the kitchen.
