All events were already predetermined…
“Things aren't ready yet? I don't have all afternoon.” He was upset, his voice deep.
“Jinyoung” became a little darker.
“Already finished.”
Slender eyes looked at the rectangular wooden box in front of him intently. The wrinkled eyebrows gradually faded. Relax when you see deep pink honmakuro cut into neat rectangles, including otoro and chutoro agami, along with botan ebi, or sweet, clear shrimp. and fresh white shelled squid, delicious to eat It's ready for executive chef Hwang Minhyun to continue.
Customers at 7 p.m., 8 seats and 11 courses of sushi. Everything must be perfect.
Bae Jinyoung works at a small omakase shop. This place has been here for two years. Before being able to stand as a store assistant He has been through every situation. As the younger brother of a chef friend, an intern, a temporary employee Deals with suppliers Not counting the time when they were trained to cook rice in the back of the store only. It passed easily.
It's not all a coincidence. Use your heart in exchange.
But still not able to complete every position...
“Today I got some Bafununi.” Jinyoung opened the wooden box and showed it to him. Bafununi is a favorite among customers at the shop. With a sweet and gentle taste The smell of the sea is not too strong. The texture is firm and not wet. and has just the right amount of oil Minhyun is often served with ikura or salmon eggs for a contrasting salty taste.
“Good.” He praised in a deep voice.
Normally, the tall person in front of him was quite kind. But when he picked up a white robe and put it on Roll up your sleeves and grab the knife. He transformed into a messy person until it was creepy. Especially his handsome and eloquent face, no matter how you look at it, it's dangerous. It is the reason that female customers Be diligent in making reservations often. Hopefully one day the chef will be kind.
Let's talk about things other than fish, fish, and fish.
My heart is annoyed but I can't help it. Even Jinyoung himself likes Minhyun who is serious and passionate about what he does the most.
“A bit tired today.”
The owner of the voice used a white cloth to wipe his knives until they were completely dry, then carefully arranged them and put them into his bag. Jinyoung himself had just finished cleaning the counter until it was shiny and shiny. In the end, there were only two people left in the same narrow shop.
“It's okay. The shop is closed tomorrow."
“That's right, forget it.” He turned around and smiled. Both sleeves were rolled up to the elbows, looking more comfortable, not as uncomfortable as at work. After taking off the hat I saw that there were beads of sweat scattered around my hairline.
“What should we eat?”
“Whatever is left, you can eat it all. I'm a chef, so that's your choice. A can of beer would be nice too,” Jinyoung replied.
“Say this every day. Aren't you bored? Next time, learn how to cry and eat something difficult."
“It's hard for me to get bored. I like whatever I like and just stay like that, you know that.” Jinyoung fought for his life. As for the listeners, they deafened. I could only wave my hand and tell him to sit and wait first.
Do this regularly.
After a few moments, Jinyoung was startled by a cold beer can stuck to his cheek. Before Minhyun sat down next to each other. Let the cool breeze At 11:00 p.m., the fatigue faded somewhat.
“The saba is pickled, let's go with beer.” He handed me a delicious menu. Didn't put on any fancy dishes. But it's a thick piece of pickled saba. In a black bowl that is commonly eaten with a pair of chopsticks
“Oh, just like yesterday. Who does the same thing more repeatedly, you or me?”
Minhyun could only laugh at his simple meal. “But your pickled saba is the most delicious in the world.”
“I know it's delicious. But this one is really boring. I'm so bored I won't eat tomorrow. No matter how delicious it is, I won't eat it.”
"You're a cat, how can you be bored with fish? Just eat." After saying that, he picked up the beer can and downed it in good spirits.
You're a lucky cat... He used to say that
A skinny cat who walked into the store on a day when everything was a mess. And change all the difficult things into easy things, like magic.
This is another position that I forgot to mention at the beginning. 'As a cat at the shop'
“Jinyoung, I'm sorry for being annoyed today.” The voice was soft and calm, like the sound of the ocean at night. Every time I'm called like this Jinyoung will especially like his own name more.
“I don't have the whole afternoon,” Jinyoung teased. while the other person acted weakly
“Jinyoung”
“Yes.” The audience raised their heads. “Have you called me a hundred times today?”
“Jinyoung”
“Jinyoung”
“I've been called a lot, and I'm dizzy. Now I'm drunk. I don't want to get drunker than before.”
The relationship between the two was complicated like this. Strongly attracted to each other But sometimes they push themselves away from each other because of a deep, hidden fear, even though they know in their hearts that each of them has become the other's universe.
“Are you really going to go?”
Jinyoung listened and put the beer can down next to him. Look up at the moon above, which is now more than half obscured by clouds.
"Can't you go? Isn't it okay to say that?"
“Then I will say that I have to go. Because I'm bored. I want to do something new.”
“Why did you say that you are a person who is difficult to get bored?”
Minhyun's beer can was swallowed in one go as soon as he finished asking. pointed Adam's apple That moves up and down like waves.
“You can't go.”
“Hmm.”
“If you say don't go, I won't go. Please just say it.”
The staring game has officially begun again. I can't remember how many rounds.
“Jinyoung”
"yes"
Jinyoung hugged his knees and listened carefully to the words of the red-eared person sitting next to him. Beyond work hours The other party agreed to relinquish his position as an employer. There was only an ordinary, narrow-eyed man left.
“Can you not go?”
It's like hearing a loud "clink" sound when the lock is unlocked.
Jinyoung smiles… As for Minhyun, his ears are redder than before.
“I thought you had to say,” Jinyoung smiles widely. Radiating an aura of joy until the other party began to know who he was.
“Can it be invalidated? I was drunk just now.”
“No,” Jinyoung laughed. “Do you believe in fate? Anyway, you won't let me go. Because everything has been predetermined. Including now that we're sitting and talking.”
“So…”
“Yes, everything about me meeting you, working with you, fighting with you, helping you cut fish, and—”
Jinyoung was startled for the second time tonight. More violent than when an ice-cold beer can was pressed against your cheek. When the lips are slightly bitter Unexpectedly, he put it on his own lips. with hot breath that floated against my face He couldn't retreat in time because Minhyun held his arm tightly. Those slender eyes stared deep into him as if searching for something.
“Is it predetermined by fate? About me kissing you."
“Well, maybe.”
“And what else?”
"I know you'll tell me you like me."
“Then it will have to wait another day. Your destiny has tricked you. But let's say You're not going to work anywhere else. Very good, Jinyoung."
The tall man patted his shoulder lightly. Then Nian got up and fled. Jinyoung couldn't help but laugh. Two years with such short, blunt words, why is it so difficult? I want to go after him and punch him to make the annoyance go away.
But never mind, Minhyun had to tell him that he liked him anyway.
Well, everything has been predetermined here.
