"Come on Joshua, you can hang out with us this one day" Mingyu, one of the 'Red thread' executives said as he held onto Joshua's arm. "Do I need to?" Mingyu ignored him and pulled him into the cafe.
"Everyone, this is Joshua! Joshua, this is everyone" Joshua smiled warmly at the group of people infront of them. "Hi, I'm Soonyoung and this is Jihoon. Say hi Jihoon" Jihoon waved unwillingly as Soonyoung shook him.
"My name is Seungcheol and this baby-" the boy beside him covered Seungcheol's mouth before speaking up. "Stop acting like I'm a little kid, hi I'm Chan" the boy said in an annoyed tone.
"I'm Joshua" he introduced himself as they sat down. "He's the head of our new project" Mingyu explained. "Right the true love thing" Jihoon commented and Joshua nodded proudly.
"It's aimed at helping people find soulmates, I'm sure it will be just as successful here in Seoul as it is in the US" Joshua said reassuringly. "Have you found your soulmate then?" Chan's question made Joshua turn red with embarrassment.
"Haven't had the time to" Jihoon held back a laugh as he looked at him. "I love that, you seem so confident about helping others find their soulmate but you still haven't found yours" Soonyoung hit Jihoon with his elbow before smiling at Joshua.
"Don't listen to him, he's always grumpy. I'm sure you'll find your soulmate soon too" Joshua was happy that Soonyoung spoke up for him but Jihoon was right. Why was he advertising true love when he never even found his own soulmate.
"Anyway you just got here right, maybe your soulmate is here! Seoul has a lot of pretty girls so maybe you'll find her here" Seungcheol tried to lift Joshua's mood but his heart only clenched more.
Joshua wanted to correct Seungcheol and tell him that there is no way that his soulmate would be a 'she' but he let it go. "Sure" Joshua dismissed it before they ordered their drinks and the conversation shifted to random things.
"You broke up with her again didn't you, Gyu?" Soonyoung asked and Mingyu shrugged. "She isn't the one" the three burst out laughing except for Chan and Joshua's face contorted in confusion.
"Pass me the money, Lee Chan" Chan sighed as he payed Jihoon. "I believed in you, Gyu! How could you!?" Mingyu rolled his eyes before looking at Joshua. "Don't bother with them, each time I date someone they do a bet on how long it would last. They are horrible" Joshua couldn't help but laugh at Mingyu's expression.
"I'm going to get our drinks" Joshua said as he saw that their drinks were ready. Everyone nodded and Joshua got up but suddenly he stopped abruptly when he accidentally bumped into someone.

Jeonghan held his head as he fell to the ground. It felt like a thousand little nails were pricking his brain. Thoughts or memories started rushing into his head that were to fast to comprehend.
"Are you okay? Hanie" he felt Wonwoo pull him up while he tried to steady the child on one arm. "I didn't mean to walk into you" Joshua apologised as he also felt the same jabbing pain that Jeonghan was feeling in his head.
Joshua shifted his eyes to Wonwoo who had taken the child from Jeonghan and was standing beside him. He instinctively stepped back and apologised to Jeonghan.
"Yeah it's okay" Jeonghan looked at Joshua and everything seemed to be irrelevant except him. There was something so familiar about him but he couldn't figure it out.
"Do I know you?" Jeonghan asked as Joshua regained himself and faced Jeonghan. It was different for Joshua, it was like he knew, he knew him but at the same time he was so sure that he had never met this boy before in his life.
"I don't think you do" Joshua replied awkwardly. "Weird, you look oddly familiar" Jeonghan hummed as he smiled at Joshua before glancing at the child in Wonwoo's arms.
"I hope you aren't hurt, be careful" Jeonghan looked at Joshua one last time before taking Wonwoo's hand and walking up to the counter. "Why do I feel like I know you better than I know myself..." Joshua shook the thoughts away as he went to retrieve their drinks.
"Jeonghan hyung, are you okay?" Jeonghan leaned down so he was facing Jaesung. He smiled reassuringly as he hugged the boy. "I almost dropped you baby, I'm sorry" Wonwoo watched fondly as Jeonghan took the boy back into his arms.
"You're not even related to him and I think you might be his favorite uncle" Jaesung giggled as he burried his face into Jeonghan's shirt. "As I should be, shut up Jeon Wonwoo. I'm the best" Jeonghan held Jaesung on his waist before Wonwoo got their order.
"When's your sister coming to pick him up?" Jeonghan was busy being smothered by the little boy and it was adorable. "I have no idea, why? You wanna go and get the number of the boy you bumped into earlier?" Jeonghan looked at Wonwoo confused before turning his attention back to Jaesung.
"I don't know what your talking about" Jeonghan tried to dismiss Wonwoo but he wouldn't let him. "Sure you don't, that's why you've been staring at him for a while now" Jeonghan turned a dark shade of red before looking away.
"I haven't been, my attention has been alone on my Jaesungie. Right baby?" Jaesung shook his head before pointing at Joshua. "No hyungie has been looking at that boy more than me" Jaesung pouted and Jeonghan quickly put his little finger down.
"Don't point at him, baby!!" Wonwoo couldn't help but laugh at how how Jeonghan had already developed a crush on the boy. "You're coming with me to that dating thing right?" Jeonghan tried to act like he couldn't hear Wonwoo and continued playing with Jaesung.
"There's no way you're avoiding it, I'm going to get back into the dating scene and so are you! Hanie hyung, it's apparently a really famous thing in America! You could find your soulmate" Jeonghan scoffed as he shook his head.
"Sorry Jeon Wonwoo, soulmates don't exist but I will come with you since you need to get over Donghyun and I'm going to be the best friend and suffer" Jeonghan sighed as he looked out of the cafe window, he regretted even saying yes.
