━━━━ *̩̩̥͙ ˚̩̥̩̥ *̩̩͙⁀➷｡ FASTLY UNLOCKING HER COFFEE-COLORED APARTMENT DOOR, NANAMI, AND HER LIGHT-BROWN, CLOUD-LIKE HAIR SHUFFLED THROUGH THE DOOR. After turning her lock to make sure she was safe, Nanami sighed loudly blowing a piece of hair out of her face. Staring at the empty, dark apartment Nanami felt all those tired and hungry sensations cloud her mind again. Nanami kicked off her converses and made a beeline to her painted door. But not before tossing her belongings on the puffy, creme couch.
Angrily shoving her bedroom door open, Nanami started to review her exhausted and trifling night. "That bitch, using my needs to overwork me," she thought of the evil man assigned to be her boss. He kept pressuring her to work more additional hours and knowing she needed the money she couldn't stick her middle finger to the bald man and say fuck you. Though that option she would prefer much more, rather than obeying his orders like a puppy in training.
While still mentally cursing Mr. Sadeeq, Nanami called out to her little, handy device Alexa and requested a song she could chill to.
"𝘐 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘯𝘰 𝘣𝘭𝘶𝘦𝘣𝘦𝘳𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘴 𝘪𝘯 𝘮𝘺 𝘪𝘤𝘦 𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘮 𝘤𝘢𝘬𝘦."
The beat started to fill her room as she bobbed the rushed hairdo along to the melodious beat and sang along. Opening her crisp, white closet door, Nanami grabbed the plushy oversized set of clothes and tossed them on her bed. Walking over to her little nightstand, she grabbed one of her new ties and pulled it along her wrist. As she went to waddle to the bathroom, she heard her song come to a fading end. Thinking about a song, she bobbed her curls entering the bathroom playing the recurring song in her head.
Flipping the pale, green light switch up to on Nanami pivoted to face the mirror and stared at herself. She got so close she could kiss her pretty reflection, but she stared at the ruined eyeliner and loose sparkles on her cheeks. "Guess I have another thing to blame on the boiled egg," she whispered to herself rolling her eyes.
Grabbing a wipe from the package next to her on her mess of a counter. Once again she called Alexa to play a certain tune for her, home shit home is the song she was feeling.
"𝘐'𝘥 𝘣𝘦 𝘴𝘰 𝘨𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘧𝘪𝘦𝘥 𝘪𝘧 𝘸𝘦 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘣𝘦 𝘵𝘰𝘨𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳."
Tossing the now dirty wipe, Nanami started to slowly strip down and prepare herself for a nice, quick, and hot shower. Pulling the tie off of her wrist, Nanami tied her messy hair into a tight bun so it wasn't to be touched but the steamy water before climbing in. The warm water on her tired body soothed her tired, overworked muscles. Putting her face under the warm, descending water she hummed along to the beat of the music.
Her much-needed shower went by fast as she washed up and vibed along to the music playing from her small speaker. Taking her light green towel, she wrapped it around her exposed body and quickly exited the bathroom. Popping the lid off her lotion she began to moisturize her body as she sang along to the blasting music.
"𝘈𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵'𝘴 𝘢 𝘭𝘰𝘯𝘨-𝘢𝘴𝘴 𝘳𝘪𝘥𝘦."
She reached for a pair of panties and began to get dressed. Finally ready to exit her room, she put on her fuzzy slippers and walked into her living room to set up for the rest of the night. Basically, what she was supposed to be doing earlier, but again the Last Boss look-alike wanted to take the time she had set away for other things. This essay was important for her grade in this class, seeing as this college professor was more strict than the others. Her grade alone in that class had her GPA shaking in its boots.
But to get procrastination out of the way, she needed to get comfort and food.
Food had higher importance.
Nanami tossed herself on the couch and quickly unlocked her phone to begin her quest for food. After basically five minutes of her and the phone having a staring contest, she couldn't find anything that spoke to her picky stomach. Until she remembered about the pizza place her older sister told her about. God's Menu, was the name. Apparently, when she and her husband went there the pizza was so fucking fantastic that the cook deserved some lip biting, sheet gripping head.
Their words of course.
But if the pizza was that good, she might as well order some seeing as she had nothing else in mind. She searched for the place giggling at her sister's comment. When she finally got to the website, she browsed around their menu. They had a great variety of pizza, there was a pizza named Charmer which was Indian inspired and another was called Maniac which was all toppings.
But Nanami decided to order their All in pizza which was a build your own. She chose three kinds of cheese and some olives as a medium pizza with a sprite and a side of fried pickles. She had first tasted fried pickles at this burger place called Rush Hour. There was an incident with her order so the owner, Shownu, was kind to give her a side of fried pickles as a complimentary side dish. And ever since then she's been hooked on them.
After memorizing her order, she went ahead and punched the numbers on her keyboard. Lifting the device to her ear the ringing filled her ears as she finally heard someone enter the call with her.
"Hello Welcome to God's Menu, my name is Felix. May I take your order please?"
She heard the male on the other line, whose voice was a euphonic, hoarse voice. Which she found very pleasant in her ears. "Hi Felix, uh-uh yes you may can I order the All in pizza?"
"Okay, and what would you want on it, ma'am?"
"For cheese could I get cheddar, mozzarella, and ricotta cheese. And for toppings, all I want is olives please."
"Alright, any drinks or sides you would like?"
"Sprite and a side of fried pickles."
"Okay, so just to make sure, you ordered an All In with cheddar, mozzarella, and ricotta cheese with olives. And for your drink, you want a sprite and for your side some fried pickles?"
"Yes that's it," Nanami bobbed her head yes, even though they couldn't see her
"Alright your total is $17.81, thank you for ordering at God's Menu. Your order will be ready in about fifteen to twenty minutes," he mumbled to the customer over the phone. Hearing somewhere along the lines okay, thank you Felix hung up the phone. Letting out a small huff, Felix turned on his heels and walked over to the small rectangular, window, and tapped the wall lightly to get Minho's attention. "Minho, order up."
Minho quickly glanced up and took the piece of paper and skimmed over it muttering under his breath to memorize the order. He muttered a quick thanks and Felix nodded towards his friend and walked back to the front, but stopped when Minho called for him. "Felix, ya nervous?" Minho chuckled and dusted his flour-covered hands on his dark, blue apron.
Felix rolled his coffee-colored eyes and turned to face his teasing friend to defend himself, but Chan also had something to say as well. "Yeah wouldn't want you back out," Chan added with a smirk exiting the kitchen.
This whole dare situation started when they went out for drinks yesterday after work. It got crazy busy and they all felt like winding down.
And what better place to do it than their favorite bar?
Nowhere, exactly.
They did what they would regularly do at the Blue Moon, Changbin would go and bother Minhyuk by going to the other side of the counter while he was working. Then after they somehow manage to get the first round on the house, they would go get their usual seats to start the night. This particular night, a drinking game had started and one thing led to another, and Felix was handed a dare or he had down the rest of the bottle and pay the tab. And you guessed it, of course, he took the dare. Fuck having to pay for the rest of these seven drunks.
Now here he was experiencing the consequences of the choices of the previous night and the non-stop teasing from his friends. Maybe he should've gone with the second option and made his pockets hurt, but to late now.
He lifted his middle finger for Chan and Minho to see and walked back to the counter to see Jeong-in wiping down tables as it was nearing closing time. "You mind if I join you? The hyungs are still on my ass about tonight," he asked his bustling friend. Jeong-in shrugged with a small smile and handed him a rag.
As they wiped down the tables time sped by as Minho called out to Felix that the pizza was ready. Felix rolled his eyes as he handed the rag back to Jeong-in and made his way to the back of the kitchen. "Oi Felix come here bro!" Chan boasted with a smug smile.
Felix purposely ignored the light, blonde male and untied his apron to go grab a pizza box. Once Minho let the pizza cool down, they went ahead and set it in the box, making sure that the slices were precut and that the complementary sauces were placed in their usual holding spots.
"Well it looks like it's just missing one, wait no two things," Chan said disappearing for a second just to reappear with two things in his hands. In the left hand were some sharpies and in the right was a little container of olives. "Since this is a special occasion, I thought we could give em a little something extra."
"Good thinking," Minho compliments Chan who does a little bow at the comment.
"Thank you, well here you are Felix," Chan hands him the Sharpies and the container of olives. Felix playfully snatches the olives out of Chan's hands and set both things down next to him. Now was the hard part, knowing what to write and not sound like a creep.
He could play this off in various ways, but which one was the right one? Felix chose the blue sharpie and took the cap off to begin writing his message to the customer. Chan looked over Felix's shoulder seeing him hesitate and not know what to say. Patting him on the back Chan looked at Felix with a bit more sincerity lingering in his gaze, "Need some help bro?"
"Yeah I think I might need some help," Felix confessed sheepishly to his friend.
"Alright then Australian bro, move aside and let me do the talking!" Chan confidently took the sharpie and started to write. Felix tried peaking over his shoulder, but Chan wouldn't let him. "Uh uh, back up and let me work my magic!" Chan told him threateningly holding the sharpie towards Felix. Felix stepped back with both hands in the air and went to go fetch the delivery bag.
By the time Felix came back, Chan was closing the top pizza box flap and sealing it for transport. Felix handed Chan the delivery bag to pack everything up so it was ready to go. They all passed on words to comfort his worries and sent him off to deliver the pizza.
Felix walked out of the restaurant as his friend's loud cheers and snickers faded as he reached the vehicle. He opened the black, sleek vehicle and climbed inside.
As he sat inside, he began to overthink the upcoming situation. The only time he had ever been involved with a girl was when he confessed how he felt about her. She accepted and all was well, but she just strung him along for four months with not an ounce of feelings for the boy. But seeing as this was just a small joke and she probably wouldn't even call, he turned the car on and headed towards her home.
The drive went by as he sang along to his new favorite songs and before he knew it he pulled up to an apartment complex. He grabbed the delivery bag out of the passenger seat and headed towards the building entrance.
He passed some residents giving a tip of his hat or a polite smile and a wave as he headed over to the elevators. He pressed the dull-looking four button to turn it golden and the elevator guided him up to the floor.
A ding was heard as the grey doors let him out. He searched for the door labeled 415.
He had finally arrived and boy was he nervous. He psyched himself up once more as he deeply exhaled and tapped his fist on the smooth, brown door. A faint "I'm coming" was heard as Felix removed the bag from off of his shoulder.
The door unlocked and there she was.
Her toffee-colored hair with light blue streaks covered most of her face as she stared right back at him. Her matching set of clothes adorned her cute, curvy body. She wasn't that shorter than him, she was right up to his chin.
Felix began to feel flustered because of the pretty girl, but he wasn't the only one.
Nanami stared at the hot delivery guy. His light blonde mullet faded into a pretty arctic blue and his golden star earrings complimented him nicely. His eyes were a pretty dark brown with light freckles sprinkled on his face.
They both thought of the same thing at that very moment, "𝘞𝘰𝘸."
Felix subconsciously checked his pulse as he finally snapped out of his little trance. He couldn't handle the silence anymore as he bashfully smiled and handed her the items she ordered. "Hi, here's your order! H-Have a goodnight!"
Nanami didn't even get a chance to speak as he rushed everything out, she silently waved as he headed back towards the elevators. With a pout, she shut her door with her elbows as she was being extra careful not to drop her food. Setting everything down on her wooden surface and went to go lock her door.
She went back to her table, where the food lay waiting for her to be consumed.
She smiled at the items before her, 𝘢𝘵 𝘭𝘢𝘴𝘵, 𝘧𝘰𝘰𝘥.
She opened up the box to look at perfection, to say the least. It looked so cheesy and golden with her crust perfectly toasted. And they were so nice as to give her extra olives. Not to forget the pickles as they smelled and looked fantastic.
Nanami reached for a slice of pizza and took a bite.
Fucking delicious.
"Head well deserved," she thought thinking back to her sister.
She went to go grab a plate and when she came back she noticed writing on the inside of the box.
