❝ Cafe ❞

@Yoona It wasn't often that Tina woke up early in the morning, the only time being when she had work. So when she did so on her own free will, that must have meant she had a decent night prior to the morning. Or something else to attend to. In this case, it was meeting up with Yoona. Arms stretched above her head, a cup of coffee poured, and the deepest urge to go outside and just roam the streets crashed over her. But she needed to meet with the drug dealer. She would stop by a nearby cafe to meet the other woman. this was another drug deal between her and Yoona. Tina ran a gentleman's game. All her deals were done with a business type of class. It made people want to come back. Precisely why she had set up this meeting in the first place. She didn't want trouble nor did she want to have to deal with competition in her territory-- especially not with someone as promising and dangerous as Yoona seemed. The solution was simple: they would work together. They would both benefit from the union as would the city. A quick wash, a brush of her teeth, and she was off. Walking out of her suite, she made her way down the street.

The heat of her hand was a stark contrast to the temperature of the rest of her body, chilled from the air hitting her. Wind gusting by and hitting her cheeks, turning the pale skin a light shade of pink. Her feet were bringing her to the cafe, and the only way she knew this was because she felt an even colder brush of wind. It had traveled over the man-made lake that took up a good portion of the park near her tower, which led to a small cafe. Her brows furrowed as she saw only a little bit of people, because usually, the park was thriving. With couples, with older people, children running and playing.. Maybe because it was early? Probably that.

Slipping into a nearby cafe, Tina looked around and took a seat near the window of the the main floor and picked up the menu, quickly scanning through its contents. Deciding on what she wanted, she placed it down on the table and looked through the window with a soft sigh. It was the beginning of another beautiful day.

@Kris {Don't worry. Mine too. I missed my flight back to my college and I have a paper due this Friday that's 12% of my grade and I haven't even started.}

Hearing a thanks, Minzy looked over at Kris and nodded in acknowledgement, raising her hand slightly in a wave. Poppy giggled, looking at Kris then at Minzy. "He's really cute, Minzy. Why don't offer to tutor him?" she murmured excitedly. "You pass all the tests anyway and you've got nearly all A's in every class. And you don't even study~!" she giggled. Minzy shrugged. "Don't have time. I'm pretty busy." Eunseo huffed. "With what?" Minzy looked out the window and stifled a groan, seeing a large group of her gang members outside, obviously waiting for her. Something must've happened back home or they had gotten themselves into some mess here. "I gotta go. See y'all later." Poppy grabbed her hand. "We're still going shopping later tonight, right?" she asked. Minzy nodded. "Yeah, yeah." She patted Poppy's head gently before heading outside. Immediately she went to the group across the street, her eyes hard and her voice demanding. Poppy and Eunseo looked out the window just as Minzy reared back and slammed her fist into one of the member's faces. "Omo! Yah, isn't that the group Minzy always hangs out with?" Eunseo asked. "Neh. The ones who follow after her like a puppy," Poppy said.

@Minzy () my replies will be much shorter from now on, haha.

Kris actually read the page that he randomly flipped to in the chapter that the test was on as the girl he was paying attention to stood up and walked away. Maybe she just left. But of course, he couldn't stay concentrated. Looking around, Kris noticed the girl again watched what she did with a male that touched her and blinked, smirking softly. Damn. That girl knows how to protect herself. That's pretty badass. And of course, Kris, being a college student, found that super attractive. Looking back at his book and starting to read again, he was interrupted once again by a girl. His hair flew ontop one of his eyes and his hand pushed it back as his fingers plowed through his soft blonde locks. His eyes shifted up and there was the girl again, but with a sandwhich. Not asking any questions, he watched her set it down and watched her flip the pages of his book. The taller male watched her every movement. His eyes followed her as she walked away and he blinked before grinning. "Thank you." The male called out to the girl and watched all of her friends reacting to her and began to read her.

@Kris "I'll be back." Minzy stood from the table, making her way to the counter. As she moved through the tables one guy with his friends, reaching out and grabbed her . She stiffened slightly before reaching back, grasping his arm and pinning it behind his back, slamming his face against the table. "Watch it," she hissed before she let him go and made her way to the counter. She ordered another bubble tea and a normal deli sandwich. Nothing fancy. Smiling at the cashier she took her food before making her way back, this time taking the longer way. "Here." She placed the sandwich on Kris' table, looking at him. "You look hungry." She looked at his book. "Also, if you're studying for the test, the Professor was trying to trick us. The questions on the test aren't going to be from chapter 7 and 9. They're all from chapter 13." She reached over, moving his hands from the book and flipping the pages to chapter 13. "See ya later." And with that she made her way back to the table, seating herself and ignoring the barrage of questions from her friends. Her voice had been nonchalant and there had been no indication that she had been flirting with him. Just being helpful.

@Minzy While ordering, even though the waiter was speaking to him, and he was answering back, he definitely heard the girls squealing and their conversation about him. Once the waiter turned his back and began to walk away, Kris' eyes shifted to the girls, looking at each of them before giving a small smile and fixed his glasses, looking back at his book. Running a hand through his hair, he could hear his stomach growling and it was good there was faint music playing so no one else did. The male bit his lip, reading through the book, sighing. 'there is no way i'm going to pass this test.' Kris mumbled. Especially with the girls talking about him. Was he really that good looking? Even he knew not to even like a girl because he didn't know if they /really/ liked him or just wanted him for his looks, or his body. And sometimes, that really ing . After waiting for about forever, he got his food and his coke, sipping it. He stole another glance to one of the girls before looking at his book, reading through the pages. For some reason, Kris couldn't help but feel curious. He'd never seen her before. Then something clicked. She must have been the new girl.

@Kris "Omo! Yah! Yah, that's Kris-ssi!" Eunseo squealed, jolting Minzy's arm as she unwrapped a lollipop. "Omo, he's so cute!" Poppy perked up. "Kris! Where?" She turned in her seat, spotting him before squealing happily. "Yah, Minzy-ah, Kris-ssi is in our class. What do you think about him?" she asked. Minzy raised an eyebrow and looked to where her friends were, her lollipop into . "Who? The tall blond with the glasses?" she asked. Her friends nodded, both suppressing their delight at seeing him. "Hm..." Minzy analyzed the man they had pointed out. He was in their class? She'd never noticed. "He's cute, I guess," she said, removing her lollipop from with a sharp pop. "Cute? Aigoo, Minzy! Kris-ssi is absolutely gorgeous. Even senior girls want to date him," Poppy huffed. "You can't just say he's cute." Minzy shrugged once more. "Wae? He's cute." She stretched lazily, sticking her candy back into . "I'm agreeing that much, aren't I? Besides, I'm not interested in boys right now." Although something about that Kris guy looked a bit familiar.

@Minzy Riiiiing. Kris heard, his eyes opening quickly. Only now did he realize he fell asleep. ''. He mumbled to himself, noticing he missed a whole section that would be on tomorrow's test. Standing up he stretched and grabbed his books, making his way out of the room. He was wearing a blue sweater, just lose enough to frame around his muscles. The glasses that sat right on the bridge of his nose were squared; personally thinking he looked more attractive with them on, and a beanie that only left some strands of his hair in the back and more in the front that framed his face just right. As he made his way to his favorite cafe for lunch, his thoughts were interrupted as one of his friends spoke. 'Hey Kris, have you seen that new girl?', that's all he's been hearing for the past week, and the same answer was a 'no' with his deep voice. Maybe if he payed more attention in class overall, he would have noticed. "I'll see you later." The tall man said as he walked into the cafe, eyes scanning the room as he chose a table and placed his books down, sitting down not too long after wards as he opened the books, waiting for a waiter or waitress to come to him. His fingers drummed the table as he looked around, leaning back in his chair to get a bit more comfortable. It wasn't long until he noticed a table of girls, his gaze shifting as a waiter walked to his table and he ordered his usual.

@Kris It had been about a week since Minzy and her gang had moved to this little town. Well, it wasn't really little but it was smaller than the last one. And why had they moved? Well, for a fresh start really. A town where no one knew her name, knew her face. A town where she could cause hell on her terms and when she felt like it. She had come into college in the middle of the semester and had made quite the first impression. A smirk made its way onto her face as she sat by a table near the window, sipping at her bubble tea. Her first day she had come to class wearing a pink crop top that just barely stopped beneath her s, low-slung black pants, and black finger-less gloves. She had made a reputation as the ice-cold new kid. Sure she had made some friends, after all they were sitting with her now at the table, but they were people that others wouldn't have associated with because they were too quiet, too intimidating looking, and too unapproachable. But she liked them just fine. "Minzy." She looked up at the girl across from her. "Mwo?" she questioned. "I asked if you think anyone from our class is worth looking at," the girl; Eunseo; questioned with a smile. Minzy leaned back in her chair, thinking. "Mm, I don't think so." Her other new friend; Poppy; laughed. "Why are you asking Minzy? You know she doesn't pay attention to anyone in class," she said, nudging Eunseo.
