Third person's POV

Hyunjin got tired of watching Jihyun sigh all day and do all the work alone all day. He knew that Felix and Eunjoo helped her to have some customers. He felt relieved but he felt worried as well, because Jihyun looks so tired. He wants to help her but he was hesitating.

He gathered all of his strength and entered the cafe "I-I want to help too"

"Hyunjin?" Felix called his name and he looks so shocked to see his friend

"Wow" Eunjoo whispered

Jihyun felt nervous because she knew the owner of the voice and that was the first time he want to help her. She thought that Hyunjin hates her so much but he never expected this to happen. She glared at the two, Felix and Eunjoo.

"I didn't called him" Felix

"You know I promised that I won't interfere with what you want to do whether it's about Hyunjin or not-" Eunjoo

"E-Enough hahahaha" Jihyun laughed awkwardly because of Eunjoo's talkativeness

"No one called me here. I went here because I want to" Hyunjin finally calmed down and started his cool image "In fact, I am here ever since you opened the cafe earlier. I-I was watching you the whole day"

"I-If it's about me and Eunjoo going to your hide out. I am really sorry" Jihyun apologized as she remembered what happened last night

"A-Actually, no, I-I want to talk to y-you" Hyunjin started stuttering

Eunjoo realized the sudden weird atmosphere "Y-Yeah, you two should talk hahaha"

"Huh?" Jihyun looked at Eunjoo

"You know, Felix and I were planning to go somewhere hahaha" Eunjoo said and started pulling Felix's hand "Ya, make it fast" she whispered to the confused Felix

"We planned? Really? Where?" Felix asked looking confused

"Hahahaha w-we are g-going to date hahahahaha!" Eunjoo awkwardly said and finally reached the window pulling Felix "I'll see you two when I see you! Have fun hehe!" she smiled and dragged Felix far from the cafe

"T-They are weird hahaha" Jihyun laughed awkwardly and saw Hyunjin isn't laughing "I-I'll go and g-get the cleaning materials hahaha" she laughed and ran to the storage room as fast as she can

Hyunjin sighed as he waited for her to go out "Bad timing" he whispered

Jihyun was struggling to get the cleaning materials because some of it are at the very high closet. She was shaking and wants to go home, it's not because she's tired. It's because the guy he loves ever since is here and he already knew about her feelings for him which made her even nervous.

"Do you need help?" Hyunjin asked

"W-When did uh... Yeah" Jihyun answered and stayed away from Hyunjin "T-Those cleaning tools up there, in that closet. Thanks" she said and ran out of the storage room carrying her cleaning tools

Hyunjin quickly took the cleaning tools and went to Jihyun "Here"

"Y-You can uhm... You can clean the tables first t-then I'll mop the floor" she said in a stuttering voice and was about to ran away from him

Hyunjin held her hand "Why do you keep running away from me?"

"M-Me? Running a-away from you? Hahahaha n-no! What m-made you think about t-that?" Jihyun smiled nervously

"Is it because Eunjoo told me that you have feelings for me?" Hyunjin asked straight forward that made Jihyun shock "Am I right?"

"Uh... Y-You are still holding my hand" Jihyun said

"I won't let go of your hand until you confess it, in front of my face" Hyunjin said while still holding at her hand "I-Is it hard? Or it's not true?

"What? I-It's true but I can't" Jihyun whispered

"Why? Is it all gone because you saw that side of me?" Hyunjin felt worried

"Huh? No! I've seen that side of yours ever since I met you and that is one of the reason why I started to love you. No matter what side you show me, my feelings won't change" Jihyun answered and she suddenly realized she just confessed

"Then, what's making you hard to confess? Tell me" Hyunjin asked

"You have a girlfriend, right? I don't want to ruin your relationship with her" Jihyun sighed

"Wait- What? I don't have girlfriend and I never had a girlfriend" Hyunjin

"I saw you last time when you went here. You are talking to a girl and looks like you two are having fun" Jihyun felt jealous and wants to hit the guy in front her "So, she's not your girlfriend?"

"No, I told her to buy a lot of coffees here so you will go home right away" Hyunjin smirked

"Wow, I thought you have a girlfriend. I was about to find that No One guy in the radio and date him" Jihyun

"So, you are going to find me?" Hyunjin smiled sweetly

Jihyun looked at him, shocked "Y-You are that No One guy? What? H-How? That means-"

"Yes, I love you" Hyunjin said and smiled at her once again

"H-Huh? Y-You are c-confusing me" Jihyun

"It's not true that I hate you. To be honest, I love you so much and I've been watching you from far away. I don't want you to stay away from me if you find out about my feelings for you, so I kept it as a secret. You, your moves kept making me feel like you like me, that gave me a chance to to give it a try but I didn't expect that I will hear it last night. I'm still happy to know that you have feelings for me, but now..." Hyunjin looked at her eyes and held both of her hands "I want you to go home and stop working"

"But they don't like you. You know that I've always-" Jihyun stopped talking when Hyunjin's face went near her

"You don't have to worry, I will talk to them tomorrow" Hyunjin smiled and kissed her forehead

Jihyun smiled and felt SO DAMN happy that she forgot to clean the cafe.
