False Hope
coffee boy
I sit alone sipping my caramel macchiato as I look into the distance. I see people still walking outside as some people are running for a place to stay dry. I take another sip of me coffee. I look at the time, it's still quite early in the morning. I look through my phone for any text message only to stare blankly into my dead phone. The aroma of the sweet coffee bean being grind embrace me. I close my eyes and listen to my surrounding. People talking, music playing in the background, the door bell ring as more people enter the coffee shop. I open my eyes again, it's raining heavily outside. I let out a sharp sigh and look around the coffee shop. I grab my bag and camera as I walk out. I accidentally bump into someone spilling their coffee on me and my camera. I let out a wince from the hot sting. I quickly try wiping the coffee from my camera hoping it'll still work.
"I'm sorry are you okay?" He ask I look up and see a guy looking straight back at me with worried eyes.
He blew on my hand and proceed to drag me into a room where there was a sign saying 'EMPLOYEES ONLY' . He help apply ointment. I silently stare at the stranger who was so focused on treating my hand. Without realizing I have been starring at for quite some while now, he starts waving his hand in front of my face.
"uh, what's your name?" I ask
"Hoseok...." he smiles
"Thank you, I have to go now." I stood up and bow
As I walk away I check if my camera still works. I try turning it on but I saw nothing. I guess I have to get it fix or buy a new one. But I can't afford neither of those two thing. I walk back to my dorm in the cold rain. By the time I reach my dorm I was soaking wet. I enter my room and strip off my clothes. I step inside the bathroom to take a quick warm shower. I got out and checked the time my photography class doesn't start for another hour. I lazily walk around my dorm as the tip of my hair are still dripping wet. I open the fridge but there wasn't much of anything.
I suddenly hear shuffling behind me, my room mate must be awake already. Her hair still messy, she yawned and walked towards me. I told her that we need to go grocery shopping this week. If we don't we're going to starve to death. I know she could afford to go buy food since she does come from a wealthy family.
"Are you gonna go to that coffee shop again to look at the coffee boy?" she ask
"I already did, beside I don't go there just to look at him okay. I go there to enjoy the smell of coffee and drink it. Also, his name is Hoseok." I reply
"Sure....you definitely went there to 'enjoy the coffee'." she rolled her eyes
"Yerin, you know I don't like him." I said with aegyo
She just laughed at me and went inside the bathroom. I silently pout to myself, I don't like him. I got dressed in thick layers before leaving the dorm. It had finally stop raining. I was walking to class when I forget to bring it umbrella, it might rain later. But it's too late already, if I go get it now I'll be late to my photography class. Aish, why am I so forgetful.
I went to class after class before it was finally my last class. My stomach begin to growl I didn't even have time to eat lunch today. The sun was setting as I slowly take my time walking back to my dorm. I look up to the sky but it was grey with clouds. I could feel tiny droplets of water bouncing off my face. I start running off for a place to hide. I see a green house so I run towards it. I enter the place and see a field of flowers. this place looks beautiful. I walk around as I smell the flowers and admire every single one of them.
"Do you like them?" I hear a guy say
Lol it's funny reading this as a coffeeholic
