How Bad Will It Get | Taegyu

"come again!"

the cafe was pretty packed today, perhaps cause it was a saturday evening. which meant beomgyu had to hurry his slow ass up and hastle through the orders.

it was fine though. he wasn't' alone now, was he. he had his babysitter working alongside him. that is, choi yeonjun himself.

presumably out of nowhere, yeonjun stated that he had been having trouble with cash lately, and that he really needed a job. hence, marked the reason as to why yeonjun suddenly started working in the same cafe beomgyu was assigned in.

but deep down beomgyu knew, even if his friend did have financial issues, he still just wanted to assure whether he was coming to work daily or not. either way, it had been fun working alongside a close one.

thanks to the previous employee who had to leave the job, he smelled like fish every single day. ew.

"yo." beomgyu felt a sharp nudge on his sides and turned around yelping, "ow- what!?"

yeonjun let out a chuckle at the other's reaction then spoke, "you know this really reminds me of this manhwa i read..."

"what manhwa?"

yeonjun stopped in his tracks for a few seconds like he was thinking, but failed to recall what it was. "i forgot, but it doesn't matter. i just remember there were two bottoms working in a cafe!"

beomgyu stared at the other with a blank expression and muttered, "okay... so?"

yeonjun stared back at the younger as if he just heard something extremely stupid come out of his mouth. "idiot. that's us! two bottoms working in a cafe..."

"are you calling me a bottom?"

"well are you not one?"

beomgyu huffed and stared at a nearby couple sitting across his counter and withdrew his gaze when he got noticed staring. "i don't know, am i. maybe. don't care."

yeonjun quickly walked out of their counter and went to serve a drink, after coming back he sighed deliberately and turned to the shorter. "you're for sure. well i surely am."

beomgyu tsked at the expression which laid on his friend's face and turned to face his front, as the cafe door opened and a tall figure walked in.

beomgyu's jaw dropped. not necessarily but he was sure it almost did.

it was him. his supposedly "therapist office" crush. Kang Taehyun.

the boy was accompanied by two other guys, who looked about his age. one who was super tall, the other who was taller than taehyun, but shorter than the tallest. he had a friendly smile to his face.

"hi. one caramel macchiato please." taehyun spoke and turned to his companions. "what about you guys?"

"i don't know... the same thing?" the taller one said and looked at the other, who nodded.

taehyun turned back to the counter. "well you heard them. three caramel macchiatos for us please." he added a smile after the sentence.

beomgyu had officially had forgotten how to utter a word. he assumed the boy in front of him was beautiful back when he last got a glance, but he actually was, as he stared at his expressive wide brown eyes.

"how long will it take?"

"what?"

beomgyu finally broke from his trance and blinked a couple of times, a deep scarlet flushed on his cheeks.
