♚ its coffee time
rktaeyxng:
taeyong recounts a memory he has, a memory in which involves taeyong himself standing behind a barista’s countertop – a memory that doesn’t exist in this realm. it wasn’t reality, per se, but rather a figment of his imagination, a big dream, actually. he could only dream to make art like that – and it’s not like he can’t make art, it’s just this specific art that alludes him for some reason.
would he have any sort of use for it in the future? that he doesn’t know, but what he does know is that anyone can pour foam on top of a latte, but it takes just that extra needed, perfect flick of the wrist to make a shape out of it.
something that taeyong apparently lacks – despite being able to play piano.
but it’s beside the point.
“um, wouldn’t you get in trouble for using your phone at work? is barista-ing strict on those kinda things or?” he says, taking a sip out of his coffee as if to punctuate his question.
every day it surprised him that he found enjoyment in making coffee, he had always been quite the energetic person but when he had been living in hong kong, for the last almost three years, his mother had started to get depressed because of her illness and so jackson had at first taken up the hobby, to please her and entertain her.
before he knew it, he enjoyed it himself-- no matter how stressed he was, making a beautiful cup of coffee had started to have a healing effect on him.
“oh?” get in trouble for using his phone, “ah, no i won’t-- i help run the coffee shops instagram account and we post pictures there, so this is going up there.” as well as on my personal one later, “worrying about me though, that is kind of you.”
