For some reason the dumb locks seemed to take longer to open and for the first time Moon cursed their apparent complexity until the final one came undone. It was then that she looked up at the man on the other side of the glass and just then that she caught his smile. It made her pause for a minute before she could grip the handle and pull open the door.

Uncharacteristically, Moon was a little stuck. She didn’t have a clue why this particular moment and this particular meeting were causing it but sure enough, the woman was briefly silent. Instead her eyes kept on him, in that split second she suddenly and very visibly shook her head. “Um, hey sorry come on in…” She drifted off and turned to begin locking up once again. This gave her the opportunity to silently curse herself and try to gain the composure she apparently needed. After a deep breath she turned around, and yes, of course he was still there. Of course he looked good.

Losing her sanity for a moment, Moon was certain if he looked at her in just the right away or stepped closer even by an inch, she’d have to blame being cooped up in her office for her next move.

Laughing, Jae shook his head as she apologized and finally got the door open. The young chef didn’t think anything of it, weirder things have happened. Still. There was an electric charge to the air just then that he couldn’t ignore.  Jae had come to enjoy Moon’s company over time. He looked forward to their meetings. Whether they met up to brainstorm different menu ideas or to just hang out and grab a drink, neither matter to him. He wanted to be near her, and continue to see the inner workings of her mind. The door to her cafe, on the other hand, seemed to have other ideas. “If I didn’t know any better, I’d think you had changed your mind.” He teased,  Sticking close by, his smile curled easily at his lips as he finally took her in. For someone who had been cooped up all day, Moon certainly didn’t look it. And maybe he had let his guard down and allowed himself to check her out. Jae appreciated her beauty and had no qualms about letting that be known. Usually, he would’ve been a little more tactful about it. Not tonight.

Okay. That’s really not fucking fair.

I basically have two moods: either let’s do something spontaneous and awesome, or let’s just lie down in bed all day and forget the world exists.

Moon had expected to be locked up alone in her office for the entire night and the idea didn’t bother her. In fact, this was how the owner spent most evenings when she wasn’t out meeting with business partners or potential ones. Everything revolved around her cafes and play could wait. While the books in Japan were left in professional hands, Korea was a different story. It was all up to her and she was finally fuck up free after years of practice.

The offer she extended to Jae was impromptu but she’d had him on her mind anyway (though in a potentially inappropriate way). He was nice to look at and nice company in more than conversation but also contemplative silence. She wasn’t sure if she looked fit for company, her hand going over her face in number crunching frustration more than once could have left a mess but a quick glance in the mirror told her otherwise.

It wasn’t long before her phone chimed and soft butterflies rose while Moon smoothed out her skirt, giving a tug to her sweater and heading towards the door. She could see only his silouette until she was closer, and then closer, now turning the locks with red hair guarding her face as she nipped at her bottom lip.

Jae was more than a little eager to find himself back in Moon’s presence again. He’d found her to be comforting, a great conversationalist, and maybe, just maybe, the center of some interesting thoughts. Which most of the time the young chef could keep in check no problem. Above all else, Jae simply enjoyed her company and the time he got to intimately see how her mind worked. If he could get her to laugh in the process than that was even better!  Seems that day they were both in need of a bit of a break from the agitations of business, and what better way to shake the day off, then to hang out with a like-minded individual? Jae gave himself a quick once over before exiting his car and making his way up to the cafe door. He wasn't too dressed up. Just enough to impress any higher-ups at the meeting, but also comfortable enough that he could find himself at a bar if the day called for it. Today, he'd be ending his day with coffee and Moon. A perfect combo. Better than any frosty mug of beer in his book.  Jae made a short trip of finding himself behind the cafe door and knocked to be let in for extra measure. He could see her pretty red hair through the glass. His smile was tugging at his lips before he could stop it in its tracks.

You’re on the right track with that and I’d say cut it off quick before the ideas get stupid. And then get yourself over here. I’m working in the office so text me when you’re at the door and I’ll let you in. @scrmbledeggs

Yes! Everyone worked hard today. Time for them to enjoy the rest of their days before it gets too late. I’ll be there soon. Maybe I can even help you a little too? @moonsunlife

When can you break free? After awhile it’s just not productive any more. Any and every which way. I can’t be picky owning two cafes in different countries. I’ve got to be able to appreciate every drink so I know what’s good. Want to stop by for a drink? Can whip you up something tasty. @scrmbledeggs

I’m giving them ten maybe fifteen more minutes before I pull the plug. We covered a lot, and I’m sure that I am not the only one who has checked out. Oh? Well, that makes sense. It’d be kind of weird if you were super particular. Gotta be somewhat flexible when coffee is quite literally your life. I was just about to ask if you were there because that was on my mind. Please. @moonsunlife

Sounds exciting but seriously exhausting. I can sympathize at least? I’m just working on the books at the cafe right now. Living on coffee. @scrmbledeggs

Both. I have to be careful or my team will start to see my eyes beginning to cross. I’m so over these meetings. Ah, coffee. The drug of choice for all of us hard working humans. How do you take yours?  @moonsunlife

[scrmbledeggs]

Testing out new menu items and a meeting for a possible new space. I’m already tired and we’re not even close to being finished. Honestly, may put a pin in this soon and regroup tomorrow—How is your day going? @moonsunlife

[scrmbledeggs]

It is going to be a very long day. Here we go...

But did you get slapped? Kidding. I've stopped myself a time or two from saying too much.

Now you’ve got me curious as to what you’ve stopped yourself from saying, too.
