   [✽] where was her roommate? that was the first thought that crossed her mind as seo joohyun was trying to check the temperature in the oven. this cake was supposed to be done fifteen means ago, but the dough was still so raw. sighing in frustration, seohyun closed the door of the oven with an annoyed look. baking and cooking weren’t two of her talents. she certainly preferred to eat a salad or an already cooked soup than actually cook for her. it was her roommate, who usually cooked for them both. not because joohyun had asked her, but because she suspected the other young woman had pitied her for how terrible she was at this.

    that and because the young woman rarely had time for anything, because of her schedule.

    sleeping in the morning and practicing during the afternoon. joohyun’s nights were reserved to her work. luckily, her customers seemed to like her performances, but her schedule was packed especially at this time of the year.

    today, she had a free night and that was exactly why she decided to have an adventure in the kitchen. seohyun was planning to eat only a piece of the cake, so she would have enough for the other witches at the malefica coven, even if she had an idea that the others were going to refuse because of how terrible she was.

    joohyun’s roommate was out of the town for the next two weeks because of christmas. that was why she hadn’t called her name yet. looking over at the oven, the young witch noticed that the light was on. that was supposed to happen, or at least that was what her roommate had said to her over the phone, an hour ago. but then, why wasn’t the cake done?

    crossing her arms over her chest, she waited for a few more minutes, not taking her eyes from the oven, in case it would explode or something like that. she could always use her magic, if that was the case anyway. not wanting to wait any longer for something to happen, the witch took off her apron and walked out of her apartment.

    perhaps one of her neighbors would be able to help her?

nayeon put her head down on her crossed arms that we’re placed on top of the bar. it was a rough night, everything came back to her. there were times where the look of her mom’s terrified face popped into her head when she was being attacked. she knew her parents would never come back to look for her after what had happened.

she heard a voice and a soft hand on her shoulder, “are you okay ?” the boy said. nayeon nodded and got up to clean up her station.

“I’m fine.” she said throwing a towel over her left shoulder. nayeon let out a small sigh, hoping that the memory of her parents would leave her mind, forever.

Upon approaching the counter, Dongwoo noticed that the bartender had put her head down. He’d caught glimpses of her several other times throughout the night, each time she seemed to be slightly out of it. He was certain that something had to be bothering her, but he didn’t know her enough to pry. Even so, that wasn’t going to stop him from trying to help.

After he placed a hand on her shoulder and asked if she was okay, she quickly stood back up and began cleaning her station. He noticed several spills on the counter so he figured he’d help out a little. He was used to cleaning messes, thanks to his job, so he picked up a few napkins and began to wipe them up. 

it was the end of her shift. finally. she wasn’t really in the mood for anything right now, other than alcohol, just because she was quite thirsty.

once she was done giving the other dj the honors of doing her job, she went straight towards the bar. her eyes landed on the current bartender, an unfamiliar one to be exact-- she was really cute in her opinion though. the question was-- why didn’t she noticed her earlier from up there at the dj booth. odd, isn’t it?

“hey.” was the first thing she said to the bartender. “i’d love to have one mojito please.” she offered her a soft, warm smile. and once after she had said order, she sat on one of the stools. “i haven’t seen you here before... are you new?”
