then there started to laugh at each other and continued to drink

another day has been passed brent just finished recording his new song now he wanted to relax so he decided to go to his favorite coffee shop.

he took 20 minutes before he reached out for the coffee shop and like before he saw the young man with raven hair with a gentle look and a smile on his face.

good day sir welcome to the sweet and beverage shop,

oh hi there too uhm my order same as before.

sir, can you please specify it because im, not kind of Android or I don't have a memory enhancer so just give me your exact order

brent feels tense when he heard that and he feels so embarrassed he took a second before he gained his presence of mind

what so his smile was fake such a rude kid.

he said to himself

oh yeah sorry about that! give me one cup of cafe americano and one-piece of strawberry shortcake. and. give it to me as fast as you can!

Adrian noticed that brent was changing his tone and become demanding.

okay sir I will,

and one thing you shouldn't be rude like that because remember customer always right!

then brent turned away and proceeded to his seats.

after brent went to the coffee shop he made his way to go home and try to take a nap time because in almost past days he's been bothering about, his engagement, and thinking about that, give him a lot of headaches.

ah! why I kept myself overthinking about this!

I just wanted to have an ordinary life,

and all of a sudden he recalled what happened just recently about his encountered

about the young man who s working at the coffee shop, he doesn't understand but he feels irritated.

what's going on with him? he can just tell me in a good way, that brat!

at the same time, he noticed that boy has had a light black shaded around his eyes and a bit tired look it's easy to notice because of his facial skin and another thing.

I wonder if that kid was eating properly, and why did he work at his age I guess he probably at the age of 18 to 19 years old '"

meanwhile, Adrian is walking around in a similar place as he always does he needs to catch up on his first subject, he had been a working student for almost one year after the death of their parents their grandmother took them and become their Guardian but his grandmother is much more older now and his aunt said them that Adrian doesn't need to worry about her she can take care her and his aunt take his grandmother in America.

"Dianne and only me I need to do everything to make her good and il do everything to make her healed,

he was at that moment when suddenly his phone started to ring

it's a call that came from the hospital!

"can you please come here immediately!

hearing that enough to give him a reason to get worried and he almost drops his phone but he still managed to get back to his self he needs to think positive, and he runs as fast as he can.

at that time brent is about on the call with Darren his best friend.
