4. Jeon Ji Hoon.

Jeon Jung Ki heard the words calming his heart in a deep voice and entered his ears very kindly.

"Sorry, Bro." Jung Ki knows how hard Tae Woo has gone through since they became close and Jung Ki is willing to accept a perfect man like Tae Woo. "I know you struggle with this relationship, but so many problems around me made me realize if this relationship existed then more problems would come."

Jung Ki's small hand stared at the cellphone in his hand, Jung Ki sighed heavily. "There are so many ways to be happy, Bro. If this is the only way I can give her, you just need to wait."

Jung Ki chooses to walk away towards his place to return to work after having dinner with Ji Min. The man waits patiently as Jung Ki comes to Ji Min with some notes on his customer's wishes.

"Five hot coffees with low caffeine," said Ji Min asking Jung Ki to prepare it. "I'll make it, Bro." Ji Min nodded his head slowly after successfully saying all the new orders and waited for a few more.

"You are okay?"

"Who are you calling?" Ji Min asked when she saw Jung Ki's careful movement just after they finished dinner and chose to call someone. "None of your business, Bro. That's my privacy," answered Jung Ki, making Ji Min feel a little impolite and laugh awkwardly at his answer.

"Do you have a boyfriend? You get busier and call someone after every meal. Lunch or dinner I can get used to seeing you, but understand how much you do it too often and can. I just want to know," asked Ji Min not to force the man to subtly just want to know the extent of the relationship between Jung Ki and someone who called or who he called.

"That's privacy, Bro." Again, Jung Ki chooses to answer it much more pleasantly than before if the man also knows how to treat him well. "Jung Ki, we've been friends for a long time. And I've known you for a very long time, does it have to be that distant for me to know who you are and how your life is?"

"That's why I'm trying to explain that all of that you shouldn't know, Bro. I if never wanted to know where you live, and what your salary for the five years you worked with," said Jung Ki aloud because he managed to finish speaking fluently as long as he spoke too long for the first time.

"That's because you didn't ask me," Ji Min admitted, annoyed that Jung Ki himself had been asking questions about himself too far to the point that Ji Min also felt that he wasn't too close to the person younger than him. "I didn't ask because I knew that private information like that shouldn't be asked."

"In short, that's all, Bro." Jung Ki pushes the five customer orders and gives them to Ji Min to complete his customer order to silence the chatty mouth of a man younger than Jung Ki but shorter than him.

"Love your job, Jung Ki. Make your co-workers comfortable too, Jung Ki. If you can't do it, you will never have money to live, isn't the wheel of life like that?" asked Jung Ki as he turned his body because the man had to clean up a bit with the equipment he used to make so many orders for today. Ji Min comes again, this time more seriously.

"Should I just close it now, Jung Ki?" Ji Min asked behind Jung Ki's back where he was washing his utensils silently. "There are still two more minutes, so I guess, just wait a little longer, Bro." Jung Ki is still busy cleaning some of the utensils he uses, Ji Min chooses to take a cloth to clean the table that has at least one drip stain on the table area or even mop it up for the night.

"I'll close it," said Ji Min when he was just about to start cleaning some tables and also mopping the floor, Jung Ki answered with a huff and a small voice.

Fifteen more minutes to finish their respective work, both Jung Ki and Ji Min both started to rest their bodies even though they were sitting.

"Let's go home," Ji Min said as the two of them took off their respective aprons making Jung Ki wipe the sweat off his forehead for a while. "Thank you for your cooperation, Bro Ji Min." Jung Ki said the same thing to Ji Min even today they had a little misunderstanding.

"Yes, thank you too for your hard work, Jung Ki." They started smiling at each other and took their respective bags to go home. "Who's holding the key today?" Ji Min asked starting when the two of them had turned off the lights and closed the cafe where they were working alone.

"I'll hold one in reserve, I'm not sure if tomorrow can leave early, Bro." .Jung Ki's pure white hands look up to ask for the spare key to the cafe where he works in case something happens without him wanting it.

"Eight o'clock, don't stay up late and go straight home, Jung Ki." Ji Min gives his coworkers a little direction if he can't keep customers waiting without Jung Ki, the cafe barista he works for, or maybe vice versa.

Jung Ki is also not a friendly and nice caffe waiter who can talk politely to every customer or talk a lot of sweet things.

The man is indeed sweet, but also stupid if you have to be sweet to other people. "I'll work on it, Bro." Ji Min nodded his head, he picked up his bike where he chose to ride towards the bike path to quickly get to his house.

"I'm goodbye, take care of yourself until you get home, Jung Ki!" Ji Min disappears after screaming at the crossroads, Jung Ki chuckles when he realizes that the man is very lucky to have a coworker as cute as Ji Min.

Because, during the five years of working together, Ji Min also interfered too much and chuckled at his founder asking questions without barging in.

The man knows manners, although sometimes not with what happened. At least the last three years they have started to open up, and little by little Jung Ki has started to talk about many things even though it is not about family and relationships.

"Thank you, Ji Min." Jung Ki chooses to raise his face mask and also raise the hood on his jacket to walk in the opposite direction to his mother's uncle's house.

"I need to get home early, at least so I can go to bed early or so I can sleep well tonight." His footsteps began to widen and he walked quickly even though tonight he wasn't the only one who had just come home from work or finished his work.

"Where are you now?" someone asked from his male cousin's phone call because the man had just walked away from work. Jung Ki slowed his pace because he couldn't slow it down for too long. "What's the matter, Bro?" asked Jung Ki, slowing down a bit, who knows if the man also needs help buying something because Jung Ki is still on his way home.

"If there's a problem tomorrow, please don't come cornering me this time," He said making Jung Ki furrow his brows in confusion as he doesn't know how to put it more clearly. "Did you go out drinking again, today?" asks Jung Ki questioning if the guy just got into trouble with his friends or even his father.

Uncle Jung Ki is too kind, but at least not with his son who is outrageously asshole or anonymous than that. "That's none of your business, Jung Ki."

"At least I just wanted to say, if my dad calls you for something important please just follow along."

"At least until you know the situation and conditions to resolve it safely, then you can give me a little warning. You want to help me right, Jung Ki?" asked the man urging Jung Ki to help him either by force or pressure.

"Bro, you're exaggerating. It's not like I'm going to get trust issues from uncle alone if you're going to feed me as bait. If the water bottle is in your room like last week I can help explain. But if you play in a nightclub, I won't be able to help you," explained Jung Ki, who was already afraid if he couldn't do anything because of the reasons of his uncle's son.

"You live at my house, Jung Ki. How can you not help me when it's my family that gives you a more real-life." Jung Ki swallowed the bitter taste of saliva. The reality hit him too much, and who cares if that's really what happened.

"Bro, please don't bring up that matter either, the company that you're holding is also owned by my daddy and mommy. If it weren't for that company, you and I would be dirty bums too, Bro." Someone laughs at the serious conversation between Jung Ki and Ji Hoon.

"Then you're going to blame my father for his performance?" Ji Hoon asks a little louder because he hates the same thing where Jung Ki started to talk about his family-owned company.

"I'm sorry, Bro." Ji Hoon rolls his eyes lazily silently, but this time the man is doing something even more serious.

"Nothing can be forgiven, if you exploded to death in the same place where both your parents also died, you shouldn't have ruined my family and took my father, Jeon Jung Ki." Ji Hoon looks very angry because Jung Ki knows how good his uncle is to him, without him realizing it he is a lot of trouble to everyone even though people who mean well to him but not all with people who hate because Jung Ki gets his help.

"I'm sorry, Ji Hoon brother. What should I do to make up for my mistakes today?"Jung Ki asked looking very guilty even though every few times Park Ji Hoon's uncle's sons brought up problems, Jung Ki also had to make more fatal mistakes so that his uncle's anger was diverted from scolding Ji Hoon to end up worrying or angry at Jung Ki.

"Don't come home tonight until tomorrow," said Ji Hoon, giving Jung Ki strict sanctions even when he caused trouble because he was caught drunk at a nightclub with his friends. "If I don't come home--"

"Sleep anywhere, I don't care." Ji Hoon disconnects the phone unilaterally making Jung Ki feel depressed. He unlatched the mask covering his face in frustration.

"Should I count on you this time?" Jung Ki asked the item he was holding after he took it out of his pants pocket.
