#thegiftedweek day 3 - PangWave Coffeeshop au: a coherent list of events and headcanons.
âď¸Pangâs family owns a coffee shop that has been around since forever.
âď¸Pang works as a barista in the shop. He doesnât enjoy it much, but he doesnât have any passions or interests that lead to stable careers, so he keeps his job as a barista.
âď¸ Everything is boring until an unfamiliar customer named Wave shows up at closing time and asks for an iced americano with 3 shots of espresso.Â
âď¸ Wave is new to town and drowning in student debt, he just recently graduated from university.
âď¸ Itâs like 11 pm and Wave is just chugging down his highly caffeinated americano. Heâs the only customer there and Pangâs just stares at Wave as if he were an elephant wearing roller skates.Â
âď¸ Wave ends up venting to Pang about being broke and not being able to find a job.
âď¸ you know what that means.
âď¸Pang offers Wave a job at his coffee shop and Wave accepts.
âď¸ Wave is well organised and constantly lectures Pang about keeping ingredients orderly and making sure the cash register is organised.Â
âď¸ Wave and Pang have lunch breaks together at the rooftop of the coffee shop.
âď¸Pang starts to enjoy working at the coffee shop.
âď¸They often visit the froyo place a few blocks away from their coffee shop.
âď¸They look at the other customers and make up backstories for them. Pang always makes outrageous stories while Wave makes educated assumptions based on his observations of the customer.
âď¸Pang likes to stick post-its on Wave while they work when he isnât looking. It always takes ages for Wave to notice, but when he does, Pang gets a wack on the head :).
âď¸When Pang visits Waveâs apartment for the first time heâs surprised that itâs a mess. Wave is still struggling financially so Pang offers to get him a raise. Wave declines, so Pang offers to let him move into his condo instead.
âď¸Once Pang assured Wave that it wouldnât be a bother, he moved in. But sadly, there was more than one bed.
âď¸They develop mutual feelings gradually, but Pang is in denial while Wave wouldnât dare to confess in fear of ruining their friendship, or even being kicked out.
âď¸The coffee shop had itâs fair share of regulars, but there was a couple that Pang always remembered: Punn and Claire. They would always come over for coffee dates and Punn always arranged suprises on their anniversaries.
âď¸When Wave was hired, Punn and Claire told him embarrassing things about Pang when he first started working at the shop. They got along pretty well.
âď¸Claire would also come to the coffee shop with her colleagues, Namtaan and Ohm. Namtaan was observant, so was Claire, but Ohm? Not so much.
âď¸Claire and Namtaan has supsected that Wave and Pang liked each other, but never said anything about it. Until Pang one day told Claire about his feelings.
âď¸ âHe probably doesnât like me back, though.â Pang says to Claire.
âď¸and Claireâs just like you fool. you absolute idiot. you pea-brained neanderthal. She tells Pang to confess to Wave. And he does, because Claire can be scary sometimes.
âď¸He sticks a post-it on Waveâs back that says âI like youâ and waits in agony.
âď¸ Wave notices it while the two of them are restocking ingredients in the back. Heâs ready to give Pang a wack in the head until he reads what it says.
âď¸âYou like me? Like, you like like me?â
âď¸Rooftop coffee dates
âď¸Ohm is shooketh when he finds out
âď¸Remember when I said there was two beds? Not anymore.
