The next morning I woke up and did my morning routine. We made breakfast and chit-chatted. The previous night I told them the whole back story of me and Caleb and overall my school years.

To say that they got furious aftet listening of the way he treated me, would be an understatement.

"He didn't deserve you in the first place.", Felix commented yesterday.

He of all the boys seemed more angry than anyone else. He was literally fuming with rage.

He was cute to be honest.

"Imma kill him for making you hurt like that.", Minho said as well.

They were super supportive like older brothers.

Except Jeongin.

He's like a younger brother.

During breakfast I was messing with my food not having an appetite. I wasn't in a good mood nor was I hungry. I was just poking with the fork the poor fruit salad, thinking about how much I don't want to go to work today. He may be there again...

"What have the fruit salad ever done to you? Show some mercy to the poor fruit."

I snapped out of my thoughts when I heard Jisung's voice.

I raise my head to look at him with a poker face. To be honest I didn't even hear what he said previously. I was too caught up with my thoughts.

"Well someone's spacing out a lot today.", Hyunjin commented.

Just then all eight heads turned to look at me curiously.

"What's wrong Rosa? Are you not feeling good?", Felix said worried from beside me.

I look down on my food again.

"I don't know. I'm just not in the mood today."

"Period?", Chan blurted out.

Jeongin widened his eyes from Chan's words, as he was too uncomfortable to listen about gynecological issues.

I slightly laughed and shook my head.

"No it's not that."

"Then was is it woman? Tell us!", Jisung raised his voice while whinning.

"To tell you the truth, I don't want to go to work, thinking that Caleb might be there today again. He'll ruin my day.", I sighed bitterly.

They all nodded in understanding after listening to my rant.

"Yeah we can understand that. Why don't you call your boss to tell her that you are not feeling good and you should take a day off?", Seungmin suggested.

"I would, but she would be left alone to run the coffee shop. It's not an easy thing to do and there isn't another waitress to help. Besides, I don't want to lie to her."

They all looked at each other for a moment before sighing.

There's nothing to do.

"Anyways, gotta go now. I'll see you guys later. Don't burn the house down!"

I stood up from the table, grabbed my backpack and my jacket and headed outside after waving to them.

During my walk to the coffee shop I was having flashbacks of Caleb and how a jerk he had been to me.

Taking small and slow steps, wanting to savour my free time and hoping that he won't be there today.

"Goodmorning miss Emily.", I greeted the sweet middle aged woman with a forced smile.

I don't want to show her that I'm not in a good mood because she will pity me and let me off for the day. And then I would feel bad for her running the shop all on her own.

" 'Morning sweetie. How are you feeling today?"

Like shit

"I'm great. How are you?", I faked a smile.

I walked through the shop and wore my apron and waited for the customers to enter in.

"Oh you know as usual. My back is hurting me a lot more these days. Maybe I should take a day off some time.", she said while rubbing her back.

And I wanted to take a day off huh?

"Yes you should. It will do you good."

"I will some day.", she nodded.

-----

So far no sign of Caleb.

Oh thank God.

It's still 12:30 though but still.

My mood was starting to get better and better. Miss Emily made me feel better actually. She was telling me jokes while making coffee and the customers today were really polite to me.

Even a small kid called me beautiful today and he blushed while saying that.

He was honestly so cute. I just wanted to squish his cheeks.

While I was making some french toast for a customer in the kitchen, miss Emily burged in with a big smile of her lips.

I turn and look at her with a smile as well.

"What's up?", I asked.

"Oh you won't believe it! Someone just came in and asked for a part time job! He said he wouldn't be working for long but still wanted to offer a hand.", she exclaimed happily.

I narrowed my eyes to her words. A new part-timer?

Who?

And it's a he?

Either way I'm relieved because he will really be a help for us.

"Where is he? Is he here now?", I asked.

"Yeah he's waiting outside in a table. He said that he wants to start from today. He is super polite and seems like a foreigner. I'll tell him to come in and introduse himself.", she said and walked outside the kitchen.

A foreigner huh?

Weird.

I continued my work and couple minutes later the door opens again revealing two figures.

Miss Emily and-

my eyes widen at the sight.

Wait

Wha-

Felix?!

"Rosalynn this is Felix. Felix this is Rosalynn. I hope you get to be friends for as long as you stay here.", She turned to look at Felix with a smile.

"I'll be off now taking some orders. Rosa will show you around.", and she left closing the door.

I instantly run towards Felix, grabbing him from his wrist and pulling him in a corner.

"What on eart are you doing here?! Are you nuts?!", I whispered yelled at him.

He shrugged his shoulders.

"You said that you guys needed help with the shop, I had free time to kill so here I am.", he said that so casually.

Like it's nothing that an idol is working part-time at a coffee shop.

He drives me crazy.

"What the hell Felix. That's not so simple. Do the boys know about this?!"

"Yes. They actually agreed and wanted to tag along but we would attract attention so I came on my own."

How did he even find this coffee shop?

For how long will he work here?

Why did he do that in the first place?!!

So many questions erupted my mind as I frustratedly sighed.

"Felix. I love you and all but this is too much. We might get in trouble if your entertainment finds out about this.", I looked up to him with a worried expression.

"Firstly, I love you too. And secondly they won't. We won't tell them. Don't worry about it.", he patted my head with a reassuring smile.

I was too angry to even realise that we were this close. And when I did, I started blushing.

I was basically pinning him on the wall but he was the one hovering above me.

I stepped back and looked away.

"A-anyway, I should show you around. It's too late to change your mind now. Miss Emily is very happy and I don't want to ruin that."

After showing Felix around and how things work he was ready to work. He's a fast learner. Of course at first I won't let him make coffee because he might get the orders wrong, but he'll get there somehow.

Suddenly the front door opens and a customer comes in and sits down in a table.

A tall brunette guy with wavy messy hair, blue eyes, sharp jawline and a high brigde nose.

Gulp

Caleb

My face screws up at the sight of him and Felix notices.

"Is he Caleb?", his eyes darkened and he clenched his jaw.

Not gonna lie but that's hot.

"Yeah..he's the one.", I said to Felix.

I watch how he grits his teeth and make his fists into a ball.

Why did he get so mad?

"I'm going to take his order.", he spoke again.

Oh heck no.
