'What do normal people think as soon as they woke up in the morning?'
I rolled carefully onto my side and looked at the white curtain. The wind waved the curtain into a slow dance and it is relaxing to watch. My mind was at ease. It was. But when I remembered the bloodbath that night, the reality after a sweet dream became an endless nightmare.
'I killed him.'
Back then, I was only thinking about paying my bills and getting a stable job. My Celine's life was ordinary. That's why, it was new for me to wake up with a reminisce of my yesterday's sin.
My chest rose and fell. I sat up then glanced at the pink hello kitty wall clock above a 54inch flat Samsung TV. 'Wonwoo's father decorated my room very childish.'
"It's 10 o'clock already?"
Coffee shop interior has the ability to engage guests, increase comfort while they are working on a laptop, reading a novel or meeting a group of friends catching up, and urge them to become loyal patrons.Thus the Wen Organization's heir came to like the interior design of Celine's newly opened coffee shop.Using the modern style decor, Junhui sees clean lines and neutral colors that are balanced out with bold, vivid accessories and texture, such as a brightly colored sofa, pillows, or a piece of abstract art. The wall has dark wood tone and every piece of furniture is simple with a practical and intentional purposes."So they used taupe palette. Nice idea," he praised while looking around. He is sitting at the side with a bouquet of red roses on the table.
Seungcheol had his eyes closed before he planted a kiss on her lips – It was his first.As Celine closed her eyes, she let herself being controlled by a dimmer switch. She was imagining how Seungcheol moves his mouth: kissing her upper lip twice then set on her lower lip as he nibbled it once, slowly, letting it last for a few seconds.His hand rested below her ear and his thumbs were caressing her cheek as he drew his lips away, but keeping them close enough that their lips almost touch, but aren’t.The lingering feeling of his small kiss built passion inside Celine’s body, as if he was telling her to beg more. To surrender.They looked at each other with heavy lids. Smiling, Seungcheol tilted his head on the other side. If only Celine c
Joshua doesn't believe in destiny. But there are coincidences in our lives which sometimes made us think that it does exists. For example, when he entered the Celine's coffee shop, Joshua saw people who don't know each other, but have connection with each other. The first one that caught his eyes is the detective Mingyu, Celine's best friend. Along with Mingyu is his subordinate Dino, the one and only son of the Governor. At the next table, there's Wen's organization her, Junhui. Lastly, at the third table which is near from the entrance, Joshua saw Mr. Chwe Vernon, the young rich investor who both organizations are trying to gain his favor.'I don't believe in destiny. But such coincidence like this is a test to my loyal beliefs,' Joshua laughed inwardly. After putting his brain to work in order to calculate his move in front of these men, he walked closer and called Mr. Chwe, the only man who will be happy to se
Seungcheol parked his car in front of the coffee shop. Celine was sitting at the back while Wonwoo was at the passenger seat. They unbuckled their seatbelts and Seungcheol was the first one who walked out so he could opened the door for Celine.“T-Thank you,” Celine shyly uttered before she hopped out.Wonwoo, who just witnessed everything, laughed at their absurdness. “What a gentleman,” he teased. He was about to jump out but Seungcheol kicked his door from outside so his butt fell down back to its place. “Hey!” Jaw dropped, Wonwoo complained."Let’s go inside,” Seungcheol said to Celine as if he isn’t aware of his evil deed a few seconds ago.“Uhmm yeah?” Celine answered in hesitation bec
Jeonghan pushed me somewhere. "Your office smell like coffee too," he mumbled while his hands are still on my shoulder. Instead of pushing him away which I always did, I skimmed my eyes around the so-said office of mine. 'Never in my dreams I imagined of having one.' Of course, it looks like a typical office: comfortable chair at the corner, laptop on the wooden table, pocket calculator, book cases, file cabinets, telephone line, business cards, overhead and work lighting, couch for the client seats, center table, plants in pots, recycle bin, alarm system, fire extinguisher and first aid kit. "There's something missing," I tilted my head to Jeonghan in wonder. 'What's missing?' "Your big picture frame hanging on the wall."
When Joshua announced that he will go to Brazil alone with Celine, Seungcheol and Jeonghan gawked at him in disarray. “Why just the two of you? We can go there together. It’s dangerous,” a disagreed opinion of Seungcheol followed by Jeonghan’s another opposition; “If you are searching for Celine’s missing friend, you should bring the two of us together!” He then swings his finger towards himself and to the first guy who disagreed. Even Celine was confused of this uncanny decision. She feels a little relieve to hear that Joshua finally got a clue regarding to her friend’s whereabouts. But going just the two of them? ‘Isn’t that too risky?’ she thought. For a perfectionist like Joshua, w
(Wonwoo's POV/ Celine's fake Brother)Why would they go to Brazil? Why? Why? Why? Why?!People said that curiosity can kill. In my case, I think it is true. If only I was able to listen to their conversation before they found my audio bug, I could had heard everything they said before Joshua told everyone that he and Celine will go to Brazil. But such 'what if' won't help anymore. The only way is to ask them directly.'As if they'll share it. Tsss.' "Ma'am, this coffee beans company contacted us this morning. They are proposing if they can supply to your shop," the female employee reported to Celine. She stood next to my sister, who is also at the counter.After Jeonghan, Seungcheol and Joshua went to work, I and my dearest sister were the only left in the shop. Among the men who visited, I guess I am the solely survivor. I don't know the category of this game though.
Jeonghan and his sister, Almond, are sitting across Junhui with a table in between. They are staring at each other as if someone with the courage to start a conversation will come up sooner or later. On the other side, Junhui's three attendants are standing behind his back; Seungkwan who was rolling his eyes, Hoshi who was staring at Jeonghan with tiger gaze and Dokyeom who was smiling because Junhui looks handsome today. This is the first time the Yoon siblings have visited the Wen's household. Yet it feels like they aren't welcome just like what Junhui felt during the HongYoonChoi party: the rivalry atmosphere with no warmth. "Why..." Junhui spoke in slow pace; it was as if he's savoring each word he'll drop. "Are you visiting me all of a sudden?" Almond stared at her older brother before she forged these cheerful answers while cl
