Souls recognize each other by vibe, not appearances.

Namjoon let's out a light chuckle, "Ah man. Enough about me, how are you? How's Quin?"

Jin smiles blinking his eyes, he is unsure whether or not he should tell Namjoon about his wife giving birth, he wouldn't want to hurt Namjoon. But the excitement of being a new father overshadows his other thoughts, and being Namjoon's best friend he knows that Namjoon would be happy about it.

"We're all good and," his hesitant but speaks any way. "We have extended our family by bring a new member." Jin says trying to sugarcoat with a grin. Namjoon fixes the dots immediately and knows what he means.

"Wow that's great. A little Jin in the family?" Namjoon smiles happily.

"Actually it's a little Quin. She's a girl," Jin takes out his phone and shows Namjoon the little picture of his 6 month daughter, SeokJima, the baby looked exactly like the mother. "My little baby girl." Jin gets emotional and wipes away the tears with one hand. He is now a father and that gets him emotional.

Namjoon also got emotional while looking at the beautiful little baby girl. Sindy always wanted a baby that looked like her. Namjoon doesn't cry but instead he beats Jin on the back.

"You're now a father." He laughs. "How does it feel?" Namjoon asks.

"It's the greatest feeling in the world. Holding little Jima in my hands, hearing her small heart beat, watching her cry, seeing her little smile when you say 'food'. I love her so much," he stares into the distant while talking about her. Namjoon listens and tries to connect but it leads to him sighing.

"I wonder if I'll get that chance," he says honestly. "14 years of my life and I hardly have anything,"

"I love being a dad and I know for sure," he looks at Namjoon in the eye. "That you will too. You will be a dad and have a child who looks just like you." Jin smiles. The smile that appears on Namjoon's face proves Jin right that he has lifted up the mood.

"Now I know why you're here," Jin smirks. "The special."

Namjoon looks confused. "The special?"

"The special." Jin says again becoming giddy in his seat. Whenever Jin would create something new he would allow his customers a free sample so he could get feedback on how it tasted.

"Well, I'm here for that special," he glances at Akai quickly. "But I can have your special too."

Jin stares at Akai and claps. He didn't want his friend to be depressed any longer and he knew that Akai had also lost her lover. How was that gonna work out? But supportive Jin clapped.

"Finest employee here. She's the vice manager," Namjoon's eyes glister.

"Really?"

"She really is the best, you should taste her green tea. She makes them with love,"

"I have." Namjoon recalls on the day, the first time they spoke and the tea she offered. Sweet.

"Ah," he raises his hand catching her attention. She smiles brightly. Namjoon loves her smile, he thought it was better then the frown that was on her face.

"The special. Two," Jin grows in countess.

"Free Specials coming up," she smiles heading behind the till.

Jin carries on talking about his new daughter. He couldn't believe that finally he was a father. His son is precious..even more precious then his wife.

Namjoon's eyes avert to her Aaki, who's walking back to them with a tray of two cups in her hands. He tries not to look at her hips as they sway side to side or at her revealing legs. He forces himself to look away and back to Jin.

However, when he looks at Jin, Jin has a naughty expression on his face causing Namjoon's cheeks to deepen in color and shame.

"Two specials at your order." She places the tray down and removes the cup. Jin stands up swiftly and walks over to her picking up the tray.

"Enjoy the special," he says and makes Aaki sit down in front of Namjoon. He shoots Namjoon a flirtatious grin and waddles away to the new customer that has entered.

Akai

Jin is seriously full of surprises. Here I was thinking I was making for him and Namjoon, so I made sure that it tasted the best so that he wouldn't reprimand me. But yet here I am with this fantastic cup. I look up from the cup and to Namjoon when he clears his throat.

"I'm sorry for the delay... For keeping you waiting. I didn't think I'd talk for that long with Jin," He shyly looks away moving his hand around. "Jin is quite a chatter box."

I giggle at his nervousness. "I get you. What can you expect from someone who hasn't seen his friend in a long time?" He looks at me and nods his head.

"Tell me about the special," he takes his spoon dipping it on the coffee mixing it around.

"Jin and I were just playing around with herbs and different varieties–"

His phone vibrates on the table making me stop. He doesn't even glance at it and tells me to ignore it.

"It looks important," I insist. When his eyes meet the screen, he calmly excuses himself from the table.
