2. Love Each Other.

Nine o'clock at night.

There were still almost six hours left for the two of them to finish the cafe where they worked.

The cafe is busy at lunchtime, where they will only take large orders, a place where only to have a drink and talk about a few things in that place.

Six in the morning to two in the afternoon is the peak, it will be crowded from five to seven at night, the rest is quite quiet because some people are busy working.

Ji Min sees Jung Ki as very serious, he can see that the man is busy with his daydream, indeed his work movements look very fast, but when finished with customer orders, the man will choose to be silent and not talk much anymore.

Although to be honest Jung Ki is a quiet man who doesn't talk much, once Ji Min mentions his relationship and closeness with a man who has a dominant and firm aura named Kim Tae Woo, Jung Ki will always be angry or at least he will become quieter and quieter.

Even though the impact is not big at all, at least Ji Min just wants Jung Ki to open up to him, seeing how bad and annoying Jung Ki is to him, is Ji Min wrong?

He cares, it's just that his concern for Jung Ki always seems to be a problem, and a mistake too.

Ji Min takes the same order for a customer who comes alone, Ji Min starts to scold Jung Ki a little. "What happened to you?" Ji Min asked, but the man was silent.

Ji Min sighed heavily, Jung Ki remained selfish with himself, he didn't answer what Ji Min asked even when the man was two years older than Jung Ki.

Ji Min relented, the man took a cup belonging to his customer and gave it to him, the man gave the exact money and walked away without Ji Min's greeting. "Thank you."

At least Ji Min can breathe a sigh of relief remembering what Jung Ki told her.

There is not any.

"Why are you today, Jung Ki? Did I say something wrong?" Jung Ki shook his head slowly, the man answered with a silent body movement, but Ji Min could only stare at the man without making a sound even for a moment.

"Don't be like that, I'm your co-worker, and you can't keep me quiet like this all day, did I hurt your heart just a little bit?" Jung Ki shook his head slowly, that's not what Jung Ki meant, the man even took off the apron he was wearing to serve work services.

"Bro, I'm just tired," Jung Ki replied, making the man who was two years older than him seem to roll his eyes lazily.

"I'm also tired, Jung Ki. But it's not like this." Ji Min replied, making Jung Ki sigh heavily. "Then?"

"I'm just not in a good mood, I'm sorry Bro Ji Min. I troubled you again, I made you uncomfortable which always made you uncomfortable around me. I'm sorry," said Jung Ki repeatedly, Ji Min smiled faintly.

The small, short, white hand stroked the top of Jung Ki's head gently. One knew how hard the quiet man was to be touched properly, even Ji Min had to get at least three more years of permission from his five years together.

Jung Ki is very quiet, he doesn't even like to be touched when they only know each other's names. Jung Ki is a good man, white, innocent, and true egotistical.

Someone will understand what Jung Ki is doing because of privacy but points to Ji Min. This is outrageous.

"I have no problem with that at all, Jung Ki. At least tell me what's your problem, if you keep quiet, I'll be a victim every day. I'm with you almost nineteen hours in one day, you know what I mean, Jung Ki?" The man nodded, he smiled sweetly now.

"Sorry, Bro." Ji Min nodded his head slowly, without any movement Jung Ki stroked Ji Min's right shoulder slowly.

He patted an empty chair where the two of them sat if the customers were getting quiet.

"What do you want for dinner today, Bro Ji Min?" Jung Ki asked about the menu that he wanted for tonight. Ji Min shook his head slowly, Jung Ki's eyebrows rose in confusion.

"Don't go on a diet, Bro. I can't balance it later." Jung Ki replied, making Ji Min chuckle hearing that.

"I didn't mean it like that, damn it I just want to drink, the lunch that you ordered made my stomach full. Do you have a lot of money or what? Why do you always buy lunch in bulk every day Jung Ki?" The man chuckled, he shook his head slowly to explain the misunderstanding between the lunch that always came every lunch hour the two of them were not from him.

"I didn't buy it." Jung Ki replied, making Ji Min's brows knit together perfectly.

"You mean?" Jung Ki chuckled, he raised his two fingers, index finger, and middle finger, then the man touched his middle finger and index finger alternately. "You see what I mean?" Ji Min rolled his eyes lazily.

"There's no way anyone always sends lunch every day differently if it's just a secret fan, Jung Ki." Ji Min denies what happened, the man trusts even rich people who always send the wrong expensive food to the cafe where they work than secret fans.

"You just don't know, Bro." Ji Min was lazy to take the conversation seriously, the man returned to take the leftover lunch for them to have dinner together.

"You're in a bad mood, what are you doing today? Is it because of Kim Tae Woo again?" asked Ji Min asking for an explanation because Ji Min saw how hard and different Jung Ki and Tae Woo went to each other or didn't look back at their eyes that were always long.

"Bro Ji Min always says weird things to me with that guy, how can you think like that when that guy--"

"He never leaves this cafe before lunch, or even after you eat lunch. But earlier, he even ordered his order and left. Isn't he only here an hour and a half? He's weird, and so are you." Ji Min asks Jung Ki his suspicions since then.

In the last two years, Tae Woo has always come to the cafe where Jung Ki and Ji Min work, even crazier in the first year when Tae Woo didn't come every weekend and was at the cafe for up to nine hours a day, after them (Jung Ki and Ji Min) have dinner.

For now, the last year at least the guy wasn't that crazy. Because everything has changed, Tae Woo comes home only until the time limit for his lunch.

Jung Ki was silent, the man chose not to answer and took his food and chewed it.

"You always ask my questions, why? Are you uncomfortable with this conversation?" Jung Ki nodded his head slowly, he answered with a quick motion. Ji Min who saw Jung Ki answered quickly even when their last one-year question was close, Jung Ki just answered a question from him.

"Jung Ki?"

"Sorry," continued Ji Min feeling very embarrassed by what he got from Jung Ki. "Sorry, Bro." Jung Ki chuckled, he shook his head quietly silently.

"I'm just joking," replied Jung Ki making Ji Min also chuckle to hear it. "You're not someone else's mistress, are you, Jung Ki I'm just scared," said Ji Min because for five years working with Jung Ki, the man didn't even know Jung Ki's house and address for five years being good friends with Jung Ki.

"No, I'm a nice, sweet, innocent, and beautiful man So I thought, a lot of people would buy lunch or dinner for me too, I'm Ji Min's good son."

"It could be that Bro Seok Jin bought it," continued Jung Ki again making sure what Ji Min asked him was not Tae Woo who bought it for him.

Or even people who can afford to buy food for them to impress other people or the sugar.

"I'm just suspicious, do you and Te Woo have a relationship behind me that I don't know about?" Jung Ki shrugged his shoulders lazily and took one last meal because Ji Min talked too long and ignored their dinner. "You talk too much Bro, sorry to waste it." Jung Ki made Ji Min sigh heavily, he glanced at Jung Ki's eyes surprised by his pensiveness.

"Your mouth and your stomach." Ji Min cursed, making Jung Ki laugh with satisfaction and throw their food back at the same time that someone came at nine o'clock at night.

Ji Min cleans her hands, puts away her dinner as well, and chooses to keep her work done to talk.

"Excuse me, madam, what message?" Ji Min asked asking for orders from late-night customers who deliberately came to make Ji Min try to be professional.

"One--"

Switching from Ji Min to Jung Ki, the man sighed heavily and took his cell phone in the bathroom at night.

"Should I call him?"

"Is he angry?"

Jung Ki hesitates, he is confused, what he should do what he is fighting for is the opposite now.

This time, he had to give in.

His hand took the cellphone in the right pocket of his pants to call someone, at least to ask how he was.

"Sorry," said Jung Ki taking a quick step by saying it first. "I'm sorry, Bro." There was no answer from there, it's just that Jung Ki can only understand if the man will indeed be angry if what Jung Ki asks is too harsh to drive him away.

"Did I not understand you?" asked the man from the other line making Jung Ki stiffen on the spot, he started to get goosebumps.

"I only--"

"This relationship exists only because you and I love each other, why now you have to care about other people?" asked the man back with a sarcastic question not wanting an answer from Jung Ki.

"That's not what I meant," replied Jung Ki correcting him. "But you did." Tae Woo confirmed it.
