At The Bubble Tea Shop (1/1)
I walked into the shop. The sweet aroma of the pastries and coffee hit me as I walked in, Amber and Eve right behind me. "Hello girls. The usual?" Mrs.Kim, a middle aged woman with black hair pinned up in a ponytail and joy filled eyes asked when she saw us walked in. "Yes ma'am"Eve said as we sat on at our usual place. "So who was the guy?" Eve asked me as we sat down. I shrugged, not knowing what else to say. Amber rolled her eyes, before saying, "His name is Kim Jongdae a.k.a. Chen. " "A kingka?!?" Eve asked surprised. I nodded, as Mrs. Kim brought our cakes, along with our bubble teas. "Thank you Mrs. Kim." We said in unison smiling at her. "Girls how many times have I told you to calm me Auntie?" Mrs. Kim said, smiling at us as she played with Amber's hair. "Sorry Auntie." we said. Mrs.Kim smiled, ruffeling my hair. We have been coming to the shop for as long as we can remember. I guess you can say its our after school hangout. "Call me if you need anything else." Mrs. Kim said, before walking away back to the kitchen. "Why would he- What did he want?"Amber asked me concerned. "I don't know." I said looking at my chocolate chip cookies, losing my appetite at sudden memories. "Just be careful." Eve told me, as she took a sip from her pineapple bubble tea. "Don't worry, I will." I said smiling at her. I don't plan on falling for him, I thought. Not after him. As I started to fall into old memories, the bell at the door rang, emitting a soft sound. Noise immediately took over the peaceful and comfortable sounds of the shop. This brought Mrs. Kim out of her kitchen. I turned to look at the customere to find the 12 guys from school, including Chen. "Oh God." I said as I turned back around. "Amber look its Kai." Eve whisper winking at her, causing Amber to blush. "I don't know what your talking about." Amber said as she took a bite of her cheesecake. "Hey Hyomin." I heard Chen say as he made his way towards us. "Oh hi I'm Chen." He said when he saw Amber and Eve. "I'm Amber." "Eve." "Would you like to meet my friends?" He asked somewhat hopeful. "I have to go." I said getting up and grabbing my tea. "Tell Auntie I said bye." I told Amber. "Be careful." They warned me. "Wait!" Chen said drawing the attention of everyone, including Mrs. Kim who arched an eyebrow. "I'll walk you home." He offered me. "No thanks." I said before leaving the shop. If I ignore him, will he leave me alone? , I thought as I walked throught the semi-crowded
streets of Seoul. As I neared the dorm, were Amber, Eve and I lived, I felt someone. Not like the way you can feel the dead but when you feel the presence of another human being. Out of nowhere I felt those familiar arms around me again. He spun me around, making me face him. He chuckled when our eyes didn't meet. "Hey stranger." He said caressing my cheek.______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
