@idemalium​ hit the heart for a starter.

he found himself at the pet store once again, maybe it was the utter acceptance with that unexistent prejudice humans seem to carry by default what brought him there once his shift was over, or it could be the secret yearning for an animal to walk around his minute flat, something he can’t quite afford. what remains true is that, just like every other time, he dragged his feet to the felines’ area ─ he doesn’t dislike them, the right opposite, but he’d be damned if he went to visit the dogs first, for his heart first belonged to their so-called foes. what makes this situation amusing, is jungho reminiscing a cat: eyes so sharp they could claw daggers in you, alluring and mysterious, with a double facet ─ the one anyone who gets a glimpse of him sees, and the real one only the lucky ones get to meet.

nonetheless, that isn’t too relevant, not while his hands were cupping the head of one of the siamese cats, gently rocking their head from side to side as his digits toyed with the soft ears. there was a hint of a smile and a pout simultaneously resting on his lips, eyes fond of adoration as they were fixed on the petite animal. “these weren’t here when i came last time, are they new?” master of obvious questions with easy answers, mr. im jungho, everyone.

`ᴅʜ — Daehun was never a breakfast person, he usually skipped it on most occasions if Jaemin wasn’t making something by chance at the time where he’d wake up. So by the time his break from work rolled around he was usually famished, and despite the “mouth watering”, greasy bar food the club he served drinks at occasionally had out, he actually wanted to down something that didn’t make him want to gag that afternoon. Jaemin had always told him about a bakery just a few streets down, one that the younger often brought things from to drop off at Daehun’s work when he knew he hadn’t eaten yet. He’s hoping this is the one, as it’s the only one he stumbled upon in the passed few blocks, and he doesn’t feel like walking much further. When stepping in he doesn’t see someone behind the counter, so he waits a few moments, before hearing something back there and deciding to lean over and take a look. The girl was picking up a rather large mess she must’ve dropped just before he’d walked in, and he raises a brow. “Is this a bad time?”

In a round of customers appearing in such a busy hour, Haebitna found herself alone behind the counter, the other staff busy behind the kitchen while another one attends to the unkempt tables left by the patrons. One purchaser came after the other, albeit being a reliable one when it comes to her job, her energy diminished together with the queue. The lack of glucose in her body probably aggravated such exhaustion, her hands were shaking as the last customer left. And there while she struggled to rest and recover a while by planting her hands on the marble top did she fail to notice the nearly empty cups of smoothies. Cold, sticky fluid splattered on the floor.

One hand quickly grabbed a dry cloth, ducking down to wipe off the mess but her hands were still quivering. Haebitna swear she could feel the coldness seep into her body, but she needed to clean the clutter at the very least before she could take a break. Get a bottle of juice maybe? Anything that will replenish her sugars. Too engrossed she did not notice (she forgot) a new customer, and if he did not lean over and speak she wouldn’t really recognize. “Oh, no. I…I’m sorry.” There was an effort to blurt out words more so standing again but alas she did, cleansing off her hands first before pushing a small smile to her face. Her usual greeting except that it obviously lacked energy. “G…good afternoon sir. Can you… tell me what’s your... order?” Stutter. Pauses were attempts to keep her composure, although it did not do good that cold bead of sweats were forming on her temples and neck.

“She was once quite beautiful, so I decided to pursue her, then I realized she wasn’t, so then, as usual, I ran away.” [DH]

     The children’s nap time equated to teachers’ break times, and it was Yuna’s turn to go during the first hour.  And being one of the youngest, also her turn to bring coffee for her co-workers. Not much of a problem because by then, the coffee house employees recognized the teachers’ faces, and had their usual orders just about memorized. The hardest part of the errand was that the first hour also coincided with the general break time for every other business, meaning a long wait.     After what was definitely too long just to order, Yuna stood at the pick-up, nail tips lightly tapping the laminated surface of her staff ID, which sat on the marble counter-top. She was soon joined by a young male, in conversation on his phone, whom she paid no mind to until-            “She was once quite beautiful, so I decided to pursue her, then I realized she wasn’t, so then, as usual, I ran away.”     If he was looking, he would have clearly seen the roll of Yuna’s eyes. And the look of shared sentiments shared with the female barista as the latter delivered her order. She could only assume he was talking about a person. What a jerk. With polite words of gratitude, she carefully picked up the cardboard cup carriers and made her way out. One would think that a teacher wouldn’t be so forgetful, but there she was, leaving her ID card still on the counter.
