________
“The usual?” “Mhm” said soobin as he nodded his head
“Coming right up!” said Kai, walking towards the coffee machine, loading in a single serving of coffee powder.
There stood soobin, looking at him silently, tracing his eyes to every llittle movement kai made. Grabbing a cup from the corner kai noticed soobin looking at him as they shared a glance. Flustered, he walked away to his table quickly, sitting down next to the window as he watched the raindrops. A raindrop race! It reminded him of his childhood nostalgia as he was silently cheering for his chosen raindrop, he didn’t realise how much time had passed before kai came with the coffee.
“Your coffee is ready” Said kai as he placed the tray carefully on the table.
“I didn’t order the cookie though?” Soobin asked looking at the plate of cookies on the tray.
“It’s on the house, plus it's my favourite item!" Kai said, giving a warm smile as he began to walk away from the table, soobin felt funny. Why was his heart beating at a 100 miles per hour? he didn't know.
Tearing the paper package on the straw, soobin jabbed it into his drink stirring it as he sipped on the coffee. Yummy, he thought to himself as he took another sip, savouring the bitter taste. Looking at the golden brown cookies he carefully took one from the plate as he munched on it. Soobin had a good amount of cookies in his lifetime and it was safe to say that this was a good one. Licking his lips, he reached to take another cookie. While setting the tray aside, he zipped open his bag grabbed his computer setting it on the desk. He took his wireless headphones and connected them to his computer. Great, let’s do some work now. He opened his professor's lecture he began listening, writing down notes. As his pencil glided across the page, soft ambient music filled the background sounds of customers chatting filled his ears, time slowly passed by.
5 hours later
Soobin looked away from his screen, feeling a light tap on his shoulder, turning back to see kai. Quickly taking off his earphones, he looked curiously at kai.
“Hey soobin, I'm so sorry to bother you but it's 10:00 pm and we are going to close soon. If you’d like to stay longer I’ll just ask my manager, so sorry to bother you.” Kai said nervously as the lights dimmed, flashing a sorry smile.
“Oh my gosh I didn't notice the time, it flies by so fast. I’ll go ahead and pack everything up.” He said disconnecting his earphones.
“No no! It's fine. I’ll just call my boss and I'll see if they can keep you in for longer!” Kai said as he pulled his buzzing phone from his pocket. It was his manager that was calling. “I’m so sorry, I need to take a call!” He said excusing himself as he went behind the counter.
“Hi boss, whats up?” He said speaking in a soft voice.
“Kai, is the shop closed yet?” The boss asked over the phone an edge of strictness to his voice.
“Uhh, not yet actually I was wondering if I could open it for longer…?” He asked nervously tapping on the counter.
“Kai, I doubt there will be any more customers coming in after 10:00 close it up.” The boss said with an exasperated sigh.
“My friend is here right now, ,I was hoping I could extend closing hours?” Kai asked biting his lips waiting for his boss's response.
“Well alright, I’ll let you open for ONLY 1 more hour. Better make sure all the lights are off alright?” The boss said over the phone with a strict voice as kai's face slowly turned into a smile.
“Of course! Thank you so much boss!” Kai said happily, ending the call and placing his phone back in his pocket.
“Soobin, you can stay for one more hour, i'll just close all the lights except for this section, is that alright?” Kai asked flashing a small smile at the boy.
“Mm, sure.” Soobin said reciprocating the smile as he watched Kai walk off into the distance, switching off the lights.
“Hey uhm Kai, why don’t you sit here and talk to me?” Soobin said nervously, he didn't know why but he just wanted to talk to Kai. He silently prayed, it did not sound too harsh or forced in any way. He was an introvert, he wasn't even supposed to be doing this.
“Sure! But I have to wash some dishes first!” Kai said, walking over to the sink, as he turned on the tap scrubbing the dishes.
30 minutes later
Kai was walking to soobin’s table, he accidentally bumped into it spilling the coffee on Soobin’s oversized sweater, the brown slowly seeping into the cloth. Kai had a horrified face, he just ruined soobin's clothes, and that coffee could stain.
“OH MY GOD. I am so sorry, please forgive me. I didn't mean to do that.” He said bowing repeatedly, silently beating himself up.
“It’s fine, I’ll go grab a tissue.” Soobin said nonchalantly, as he got up to go to the washroom. He secretly found kai cute.
“NO, I’LL GET IT” Kai offered, hurrying to the restroom, he knew he was stupid but he figured that he wouldnt be THAT stupid to spill coffee on soobin gosh, to say he was ashamed would be an understatement.
Running back to the table, he grabbed Soobin's sweater as he began to rub it. Without a warning the back of his hand softly grazed soobin's hand. It was clear that he was not the only one who felt it. Soobin laughed awkwardly at Kai's flustered face as Kai backed away.
“I hope it doesn’t stain your sweater, I’m so sorry!” Kai said as he ran behind to the counter to hide himself, oh my god he was so embarrassed. First he spills on soobin and now he.. he tries to pull that type of shit?
“You can come out of hiding now y'know?” Soobin smiled at Kai who was covering his face. Soobin thought Kai's flustered face was adorable.
“You're blushing so hard like a tomato right now.” soobin said teasingly as kai slapped his shoulder softly, eyes too embarrassed to meet soobins.
“Ugh, I hate you.” Said Kai as he pouted softly, only resulting in soobin to chuckle. “There, there” Soobin said as he gave Kai a warm hug, chuckling softly.
