he always wear earbuds, which makes me curious of what he listen too, emotion songs, up beat songs, or even anything that comes up in my mind, he is always having straight face on what he is listening too. every afternoon he comes to the cafe with earbuds, reading or just watching people walk by.

"yuta, you are always staring at that guy, why don't you just talk to him?" taeyong said, leaning against the counter, "nah, he is always wearing earbuds" yuta mumbled, "also tae, stop leaning on the counter, people will think your a costumer." yuta whined, slightly pushing him off.

taeyong chuckled, playfully rolling his eyes, getting off the counter. "hey taeyong...have you ever wonder what he is listening too?" yuta tilt his head, raising an eyebrow, looking at taeyong. "naw, i bet he is hearing some nightcore." taeyong playfully chuckled.

yuta furrowed his eyebrows, frowning a bit, "hey, nightcore could have some good music..." yuta mumble, "yeah, some" taeyong rolled his eyes, having a blank face. "well, it's about 10 minutes half 1 till closing time" taeyong reminded, "right.." yuta murmured, counting the money.

as yuta was done counting the money, he took off his working cap, and the robe. he looked around the cafe and only seeing the guy with earbuds sitting on a table, looking around at the people walking by.

yuta walked up to the man, and gently tapping his shoulder, the man turned his head towards yuta, "yes..?" the man said as he took off a piece of earbuds out of his ear, raising an eyebrow.

"sorry to invade your time, but we are closing in a bit. but if you want anything else, i'll get it for you." yuta said politely, "oh i didn't realize the time and no thank you, but thanks" he said, packing up his stuff, "see ya" the man walked down, "he forgot to pay-" yuta looked down, seeing cash. "never mind.."

yuta took the cash, putting in the register. "got some time to clean up.." yuta said, looking at the clock, he put on gloves and cleaning supplies. he took some time to clean up the tables, and mopping a bit. "let's go yuta, it's closing time~" yuta chuckled at taeyong's attempt of singing. "please don't ever sing again please" yuta put away the supplies and gloves.

"rude" taeyong said, faking his hurtful voice, "don't take it too hard, man" yuta patted his back, putting on his coat and bucket hat, "ready to bring me home" taeyong put his arm around his shoulder, "i don't see why you can't get your licenses, driving isn't that hard."

"well, first off- it is hard, second off, i'm too lazy" yuta rolled his eyes at his answer, shaking his head a bit. "just learn or take the test." yuta suggested, "there's a test-" taeyong said, kind of shocked, "yeah there is a test of driving, not doing it, but a test"

taeyong whined, "is it those paper test, because i would rather do the driving test."

yuta started the engine as they both went in the car, having seat belts on. "yes it is those paper test, but it's not that hard if you learn how to do it." taeyong looked at yuta, how he was driving, 'he makes it look so easy..' taeyong thought.

"i don't know if you are staring, admiring, or observing, but it is rude to look at a person.." taeyong jumped, "how easy is it driving?"

"depends on the person, it could be easy and pass the driving test, or it could be hard and crash the car" yuta explained, turning to the left as the signal turned green. "just by observing you, it looks like in the middle.."

"what do you mean by that?" taeyong raised an eyebrow, tilting his head. "it means that you could pass the test, but also get into an accident when you get your license" yuta said blandly, pulling up in front of taeyong's apartment, "but it most definitely pass the test."

"aight man, thank you for the lift" taeyong said, taking his things, "i always drive you, why thanking me?" yuta playfully said, grinning. "shut up, and just leave" taeyong chuckled a bit, "alright, see you" yuta said, taking off.

as yuta was driving to his apartment, he couldn't stop thinking about the guy who is always in the cafe, and just listening to music, enjoying his coffee and doing his own thing. yuta let out a soft scoff, couldn't believe he was thinking of a guy.

he identified himself as bisexual, but is more gradually towards guys, but you could say he's gay, but he was scared of his parents not supporting his sexuality or his best friend, taeyong. he has been keeping this for couple years now, approximately 3 and a half years.

yuta parked in the parking lot that is attached to the building, locking his car doors. yuta tossed up his keys seamlessly as he went to the elevator, pressing the floor number of his apartment.

when he reached his apartment, digging through his pockets of his backpack he brought, he furrowed his eyebrows, looking through the pocket of where he usually put his apartment card and key. "shit.." yuta mumbled, pulling out his phone, calling his roommate.

"hey, could you open the door? i forgot my card and keys again in my room.." yuta said embarrassed, "okay thank you, bye." he hung up as he heard the door unlock and opened. "sup yuta." the girl said.

"hey dae" she smiled, "you're off early" she sat down on the single couch, "you forgot that on thursday we get off early." yuta chuckled. "shit, i forgot.." dae chuckled, dae had dark red hair that looked velvet, but darker. she had couple tattoos on her shoulder blade, shoulder, and on her forearm. she was only 4 inches shorter than yuta, and always wear black or something similar to black clothing.

"how is your girlfriend?" yuta said, looking at dae, "we broke up because apparently she is "straight" now...how pathetic..bet she is with her bitch right now" dae rolled her eyes, dae is a lesbian, he finally had someone who had the similar situation with their parents.

she was afraid that they will not accept her too, but they supported her unconditionally and no matter what sexuality she had. she tried to encourage him to come out of the closet, but he was scared of what his parents would say.

"probably, how are you taking it?" she let out a sigh, "i don't know, i just smoked until i couldn't feel my legs, and i don't know, right now i'm just feeling..." she paused for a moment, "feeling okay now."

"dae, you really need to stop smoking, it's bad for your lungs" dae let out a scoff, "at least it's weed, not cigarettes." yuta would playfully shake his head, grinning a bit. "you still got some?" yuta asked, raising an eyebrow at her. "you wanna try?" dae grinned, "hey life is adventuring, so why the hell not?" yuta shrugged.

"yeah, hold on let me get them" dae got off the chair, quickly jogging to her room. "i got 3 different ones, one is weak, second is medium, and is strong. pick" dae kneed down in front of him, "don't want to go too hard, but medium"

"you're thinking right, don't want to get you killed on the stronger one" dae chuckled, taking out the pipe.

-warning: drug use-

dae gave the lighter to yuta as she put the weed in the small hole in front of him. "now just put the fire on the weed and just inhale" dae instructed. yuta did as he was told and inhaled the smoke as he fired up the weed.

he gave the pipe to dae as he blow out smoke, "so?" dae smiled, ''i can see why you like these, holy shit" yuta spoke dryly, "want another shot?" dae said, puffing out smoke, making circular shape as she blew.

"maybe one more, because i don't want to get addicted" dae gave pipe to him, doing the same thing as he did couple minutes ago, he was already feeling the sensation kicking in as he took it. his eyes was a little droopy. "shit- what the fuck is this-" he felt little light headed or his body felt light.

the feeling was not scaring him, but worrying him that he will fall off the couch while sitting, he doesn't dislike the feeling or like the feeling, it felt nothing to him. "yuta, you're kind of high already, but it's okay-" dae said, taking her 3 huff. "it's your first time" she said while smoke was coming out her mouth.

"how do you do those shapes when you puff out." yuta said curiously as he saw her do circles as she blow out. "it takes time, also i could do this" she took a huff, as he blew out, it came out in different spot of her mouth, it was coming out both crease of her mouth and 3 lines down of her center of her lips.

"woah.." yuta blinked, seeing if he was tripping out, "how-" yuta furrowed his eyebrows, looking at her. "practice, and also time" she chuckled as she saw how yuta was impressed, but also shocked of the tricks she could do. "you gotta teach me how-"

"but i thought you said you don't want to get addicted"

"i don't, but you could teach me" dae looked at yuta for a second, "alright, but not today, i don't want you getting addicted to these too" she chuckled, she trashed the ash as it was finished, putting back in the weed in a bag with the pipe.

"so how was work? is that guy still at the cafe every afternoon?" dae asked, raising an eyebrow. "yeah he still is," yuta said, flipping the channels on the t.v, "have you talked to him?" yuta pursed his lips, "just a small talk or it wasn't a really a conversation or a small talk, i just told him that we were closing.." dae plopped next to yuta, frowning. "it's okay, yuta- you'll have the courage to talk to him and tell your parents about your sexuality."

"what if they are not supportive like yours? i can already see their reaction.."

dae pulled yuta into a hug, "don't come into conclusions, yuta" she said, "you don't know what their reaction is, if you know them well and supported you of the career you are taking of leaving Japan, i think they will support you of your sexuality."

yuta hugged back, feeling calm as he heard her words going through his ear out to another. "thank you dae, i really needed that" yuta has been lately feeling tense everyday as he requested more hours to get a well paid, and also dae.

both of them were struggling of paying the rent, and both of them had two jobs, dae is a cashier and a night club bartender, while yuta is a cafe worker and a waiter at this restaurant that is opened to 9pm to 12am.

"so, enough of this emotional convo, let's watch a movie." she suggested, taking the remote on the other side of yuta's lap, she squint her eyes as she closely look at the titles. "oo, how about, 'the grudge'" dae grinned, "yeah.." yuta said hesitantly, he wasn't  a really big fan of horror films, he doesn't despite them, he just doesn't like them.

"if you don't want to watch it, we could watch spongebob" she suggested, looking at yuta. "no no no, let's watch the grudge.." yuta insisted.

"if you say so..."

-5 minutes into the movie-

"AHHHHHH" yuta screamed, covering his eyes, "the scary parts did even pop up what is-" dae sighed at the childish behavior that was coming from a grown person. "still it's horrifying!" yuta over reacted. "okay we're watching spongebob" dae changed the channel to spongebob. yuta uncovered his eyes, looking at the t.v. "i was doing perfectly fine watching that movie" yuta whined.

"barely.." dae mumbled, "hmph.." yuta scoffed.
