27 years old Jung Yunho sat in front of his laptop, frowning. Despite his long career as a private investigator, he was still having a hard time keeping up with the demands of his clients. Eighty percent of the investigation cases were on investingating cheating spouse or an internal affair inside a company. There were only a few of them that are serious cases, like homicides. It’s not usual to receive a request to investigate on a homicide case since it is the police’s job. He let out a disappointed sigh when he checked his inbox and saw that there were no new requests.

“You’re throwing away 10 years of your life everytime you sighed.” He heard the youngest, Changmin talked to him. Even though Changmin is the youngest, he is-much to Yunho’s liking-the smartest man in the industry. Though sometimes he acts like an idiot.

“Thanks for reminding me Changmin.” He turned off his laptop, massaging the bridge of his nose. “If you have time to annoy me, please just work on Mrs. Cha’s case.”

He heard another sound of a plastic wrapper being opened before Changmin answered him. “Just like what I told you yesterday and an hour ago, her husband is at work. He didn’t leave at all. Not even for lunch. I don’t know how he got all those fats when he skipped lunch.”

“Not everyone has a fast metabolism like you, Changmin. Some people DO get fat even if they eat a little.”

“True. I can see your moobs gaining some fat.”

And there was a sound of a book being hit on the wall.

“You don’t have to be so violent!” He heard Changmin protest, but he ignored it.

Decided that it’s time to take a breather, he got up from his chair and picked up his jacket from the rack.

“Where are you going? Food?”

“Coffee.” He said lazily.

“Oh, then please-“

“bring you caramel machiatto with a lot of caramel. Yes. I bet there’s nothing else?” He asked half irittated.

“I-“

“No. Okay. I’ll be back after an hour. Just keep on monitoring Mr. Cha. We should have enough evidence to show Mrs. Cha that her husband is not cheating on her.”

He could hear Changmin say something along like ‘why are you so gloomy’ or ‘stop sulking you’ll make the coffee taste horrible’ or maybe he just said ‘you dumb hyung’.

He was deep in thoughts while walking along the street and before he realized it, he was standing in front of the coffee shop. He stepped into the small shop and was greeted with a strong aroma of coffee and sweets. It’s a small cafe, which was located in a silent corner of the road to his apartment that sells cake with coffee and tea. He always come here once a day. Ordering a plain black coffee and a caramel machiatto. And sometimes a darjeeling when his detective friend, Park Yoochun, decided to pay him a visit.

He would usually order a take away and then sit at the park near his apartment to enjoy his coffee. But today, he felt a need for a change and decided to stay indoor.

“The usual, Mr. Jung?” Aerin, one of the server who by now has gotten used to Yunho’s usual order.

He gave her a small smile, nodding. “I’ll have my black coffee here instead,” he added.

“Alright. One caramel machiatto, take away and one black coffee for here. Please have a seat sir and I’ll bring the coffee to you in a minute.”

After paying the amount for the drinks, he chose a table near the window. The window was big with a soft color curtain covering the top part of it. He took his time looking around the empty street while waiting for his coffee to be served.

“Here is your coffee. Please enjoy.” Aerin gave him a small smile before walking back to the counter.

He took a small sip of his coffee, slowly tasting the bitterness of his favorite black coffee when he saw an interesting sight on the street. There was a beautiful young man, wearing a long black coat that contrasted with his pale porcelain skin. He looked so weak and fragile as if one touch could break him easily. Yunho watched him walked lazily with hands on his coat’s pocket, eyes looking ahead.

Yunho became curious when he decided to follow the man’s gaze. He saw an old man, which Yunho recalled from seeing news on television or newspaper- a famous bussinessman who was also the owner of one of Seoul biggest market chain, Han SunJoon. The old man walked straight to where the pale man was standing, circling his arm around the smaller man’s waist before they walked away together.

It’s too bad that such a beautifull man is with such an old man. He shrugged, sipping his coffee again.

About 20 minutes after that while he’s enjoying his second cup of coffee, a panting young man came running into the coffee shop. “Please.” He could see the man struggle to talk while being frantic, “call the ambulance! Someone...someone has been shot! Mr.Han! Mr.Han!”

And suddenly, Yunho didn’t feel like drinking his coffee anymore.
