He frowns, reading Junghwan’s texts over and over. He puts his phone back into his pocket and serves a couple who’ve come into the 7-11. He stutters and splutters his way through an awkward conversation before he goes back to his phone.

It had been a whole twenty minutes since he had gotten Junghwan’s replies.
