: It's kind of cute that you can't drink coffee.

















W. So cute, so cute

The next day, Park Jimin went to a cafe he rarely visited because of a promise with Min Yoongi. Actually, Park Jimin can't drink coffee. Why bother going to a cafe when he could just drink fruit juice or something else? The cafe near the practice room where Park Jimin and Park Jimin go only sell coffee. That's why he doesn't go to that cafe very often. And he doesn't really like cafes. Unlike other people who can't drink coffee but enjoy its aroma, he doesn't even like the smell of coffee, not even the slightly sweet aroma of coffee with milk or sugar. That's why Jimin is reluctant to go to cafes. But this time, he mistakenly thought Min Yoongi was casting him, and in his excitement, he forgot how much he disliked the smell of coffee and readily agreed to meet him at the cafe.

















Jimin, who had arrived without realizing it, found a corner seat and sat there awkwardly, waiting for Min Yoongi to arrive. After about 10 minutes, Min Yoongi came running in, panting, and apologized for being late, saying that he had been very busy. Park Jimin looked flustered when he saw Min Yoongi bowing his head to apologize, and calmed him down by saying that it was okay and to order coffee first. Min Yoongi calmed his breathing and ordered an espresso. Park Jimin's eyes widened and he exclaimed, "Espresso?" in surprise. He must have been surprised that he was drinking the espresso that was famous for being the most bitter.
Min Yoongi said with a smirk, "I find that kind of Park Jimin cute."

-You're cute. Won't you be my friend, Jimin?

















-Huh...!?!?

















Jimin jumped up in surprise. At that, all the guests turned their attention to Jimin due to the commotion. Jimin must have noticed the gazes of the people around him, so he apologized and sat down again. Jimin felt embarrassed and thought to himself, 'The CEO of the agency wants to be friends with someone like me... Is this a dream? No, but more importantly, he didn't want to cast me... But does he really want to be friends with me? More importantly, I'm so nervous. How should I treat the CEO? How should I become friends with him?' Park Jimin's thoughts were very random.

















-Mr. Jimin?

















Min Yoongi called out to Jimin, who was lost in thought.

















-Yes, yes...!!

















-Do you not want to be friends with me...?

















Min Yoongi, contrary to his cold image, had a cute puppy-like crying face. Jimin, seeing Min Yoongi like that, had a great realization that you can't judge a book by its cover. Unable to resist his cuteness, they decided to become friends.

















'Tiring--'

















Min Yoongi's phone vibrated loudly. Slightly annoyed, Yoongi glanced at his phone screen, his expression hardening as soon as he saw it. Then, recognizing his own hardened expression, he forced a smile and said he'd be back to answer the phone before leaving. Park Jimin waited, worried about Min Yoongi. Even after 30 minutes, even after an hour, he continued to wait in the same spot. Even as he inhaled the scent of cold coffee, the nauseating smell, he stubbornly refused to leave.

















After about an hour and a half, Min Yoongi finally returned. He seemed extremely angry and trying to suppress his anger. Park Jimin tried to appease him by saying things like the coffee had gotten cold and how quickly it cooled. Then, Min Yoongi came to his senses and, surprised to see Park Jimin still sitting in his seat, said,

















-Why aren't you there yet? Just go. Besides, you're in the same position as before. Why don't you sit more comfortably? Why are you struggling so much?

















-Well... I just... Um, I don't know either.

















Park Jimin broke out in a cold sweat, perhaps feeling a little uncomfortable and tired from sitting in the same position for over an hour. But he never shifted his position. What kind of greed was he trying to achieve? I couldn't understand it.
Min Yoongi smiled, finding Park Jimin cute even though he didn't understand him.
















-It seems like you've made a good decision to become friends with Jimin. But I'm sorry... Could you please go first? Someone I know will be here soon... I need to talk to them about something important... See you tomorrow. I'm really sorry, Jimin.

















-It's okay. You seem very busy... Don't push yourself too hard... Then I'll go first!

















As Jimin left, someone brushed past him and entered, carrying a strong rose scent. The person smiled slyly and approached Min Yoongi.
