**Chapter 1 - Log**

Ever since Taehee stayed in my house, coffee roasting aroma fills the house every morning and in the weekends. The aroma spreads across the house fast that I know when Taehee’s brewing coffee even from my room.

MC

(He’s up so early again.)

8 o’clock on a Saturday morning. Taehee’s day always seems to start faster than anyone, and finishes later than anyone.

Taehee

You’re up early today.

The way he turns around to face me by the window- reminds me of an old, sentimental film, featuring a handsome actor. Maybe this aura comes from the coffee he has roasted and brew.

Taehee

Why are you staring at me like that?

MC

Did you roast coffee beans this morning?

Taehee

Yes. Would you like a cup of coffee?

MC

Yeah, I’d love to.

Taehee heads to the kitchen and brews a cup of warm coffee.

MC

Hmm… I like this scent.

Taehee

It’ll taste even better.

Taehee’s words never sound like a bluff nor a boast.

MC

Your words always sound so trustworthy.

Taehee

……

And just like Taehee said, the hot coffee tastes fabulous. Others may say that it tastes good because of this beautiful scene, but I think the good taste perfects the scene.

MC

(Wow, I want to learn to brew tasty coffee, just like him!)

At first, I think of asking Taehee to teach me. Then, I come up with a better idea.

MC

(What if, I secretly learn to brew coffee and make him a cup myself, one day…?!)

MC

Here, have some. I brewed it for you.

Taehee

Wow, it tastes amazing.

Even by just imagining it, a wide smile spreads across my face. My goal is to make coffee as tasty as Taehee’s.

**Chapter 2 - Log**

I sometimes think about what it is to have fortune on your side. I never had anything like that happening in my life, so I wanted to experience it for once.

Huh? There is a poster saying [Barista Class (5 lessons)\ over the door of a cafe where Taehee visits often. It feels amazing to see such a poster as soon as I decide to learn to brew coffee. So this is what you call by having fortune on your side. Ever since I lived with the goblins, I can sense a lot of things working smoothly in my life. I can feel that series of coincidental incidents have actually led to this special luck. Still, I don’t know if this is fortune, or misfortune dressed as luck.

MC

Though I can’t really help from smiling, hehe.

???

Why can’t you help from smiling?

MC

Whoa! You surprised me! Were you still home??

Taehee

You said you can’t really help from smiling. Is there something going on?

I nearly blurt out my plan, but I manage to lock my lips. My goal is to brew a perfect coffee and surprise Taehee.

MC

Nothing. It just feels that things are sliding along so well lately.

(I should change the subject before he digs in more.)

You brew coffee almost every morning. Does your coffee taste great any day?

Taehee

Hmm, I never gave it a thought while I drank the coffee. But, I believe it always tastes as good.

MC

Wow, you sound so confident!

Taehee

Because I *am* confident. You said it tastes good. That’s all I need.

MC

…..

Because I know his words are true and sincere,

Taehee

Want some coffee?

MC

I’d love to.

I can barely reply only after he turns away to make more coffee.

**Chapter 3 - Log**

--Time flies fast, and today is already the third day of the Barista lesson.

MC

(No matter how hard I try, I can’t make coffee as good as Taehee’s…)

I silently watch Taehee, preparing to brew coffee.

MC

Do you remember when I asked you if your coffee tastes good any day?

Taehee

Yes, I do.

MC

Well, I see that now. It always tasted as good.

Taehee

That’s good to hear.

It was a day not long after my first coffee brewing lesson. So, I wanted to know how he makes his coffee, because his always tasted much better than the ones I make in my class.

Taehee

Would you like your coffee today as well?

MC

Yes, pelase.

Then, I forget about learning, from his mind-blowing coffee. Then, I now sit with Taehee while he brews coffee because I just love watching him.

Taehee

You know, I used to have coffee because I like it. But lately, I enjoy the coffee time itself.

MC

What do you mean?

Taehee

The time you watch me and talk to me while I brew our coffee. The moment itself is so precious to me now.

He speaks of the same thought as mine.

MC

I like the time we spend together more than the coffee, too.

During this short time, we don’t share much words.

Taehee

The weather’s nice today.

It’s only a light comment, but it warms my heart. I should try harder in class. I want Taehee to know this heart-warmimng feeling.

Part-timer

Hello!

The clerk at the cafe recognises me and greets me.

Part-timer

Attention, please-.. Unfortunately, Mr. Lim fell ill today. So, we invited a substitute instructor for today.

Student 1

Is the new instructor as good as Mr. Lim?

I gaze at the student who asks a somewhat rude question.

Part-timer

Yes, he’s a skilled instruction, I assure you.

I want to learn as fast as I can and demonstrate my coffee to Taehee. But I’ve forgotten about something crucial. This is the cafe where Taehee visits almost every day. I still have some time left before the class starts, so I am chatting with other students from the class. Then—

Part-timer

Hello~

I turn my face absentmindedly, and get surprised from a familiar face.

MC

(Oh my goodness, it’s Taehee!!)

I freeze on the spot, trying my best not to get spotted.

Part-timer

Oh, hello, Mr. Taehee~

Taehee

Good day to you~

I can’t make it out what they are talking about after they greeted each other.

MC

(Is he going to stay? What if he sees me taking the class…?!)

Student 1

Hey, come to think of it… You look familiar, MC.

MC

Huh?

Student 2

Oh! I think I saw you on the Wannabe Challenge! Aren’t you a challenge candidate?

MC

Oh, yeah, I am.

Student 1

Oh, wow! No wonder you looked so familiar!

While I talk with other students in the class, I lose trace of Taehee. I look around to search for Taehee inside the cafe, but fail.

MC

(It’ll be easy to spot such a handsome guy inside this cafe….)

He must have headed outside after ordering his drink. I let out a sigh of relief.

Part-timer

The class will start now.

All the students crowd around the table where the lecturer usually teaches. I clap along everyone in the class to greet today’s substitute instructor before I spot…

MC

(Huh? Taehee??)

**Chapter 4 - Log**

Taehee, whom I believed to have left the cafe after taking out a coffee, is now standing right in front of me as today’s instructor. Taehee widens his eyes after spotting me, but soon calms himself down.

Taehee

Hello, everyone. I’m Taehee, and I will be instructing today’s class. Since it’s my first time meeting you all, how about we take a brief time to introduce ourselves?

And Taehee proficiently asks the students to introduce themselves, one by one. The students introduce themselves, and talk about the reason why they are taking this barista class. But I can’t concentrate. All my thoughts are focused on Taehee only. It is unbelievable to meet him here.

Taehee

And hello~ Could you introduce yourself, please…?

Taehee treats me just like the other students, as if he doesn’t know me.

MC

I’m MC. I registered for this class to learn some good tips to brew an excellent coffee.

Taehee

Okay. Now, before we start today’s lesson, let’s review the basics since we’re all beginners here.

Taehee starts his lecture on coffee. Though I feel sorry to say this for my original instructor, but Taehee’s lesson is much easier to comprehend.

Student 1

Can we try your coffee, Mr. Kim?

Taehee smiles and pulls out come cups to share his coffee with all the students.

Taehee

It’s not much, but just take a sip for the taste.

The coffee tastes as good as always. I can hear small awes from the students, admiring Taehee’s coffee. Sudenly,

MC

(This coffee used to be made only for me…)

Though I know it’s a childish and selfish thought, I can’t stop it from snowballing in my head.

Student 1

Sir, I can’t brew my coffee as good as yours.. Is there any other tips apart from today’s lesson?

Taehee

Hmm, other tips?

Since I’m already busted, I also want to learn his secret tip.

Taehee

Hmm, I’m not really sure if I have one. I’ll think of one while I brew more coffee. First of all, the beans decide the taste of your coffee. And-....

A soft smile lingers around Taehee’s eyes and lips.

Taehee

I brew coffee while thinking of a very special person who’d be drinking my coffee. That should be my tip.

When the class is over— I wait until other students leave the classroom.

MC

So, who’s that special person who’d be drinking your coffee?

Taehee

Why are you here taking a class on coffee, and not asking me?

We both ask each other at the same time.

MC

…...

Taehee

As for you—… You know who I was talking about.

MC

How would I know?

Taehee

The person I brew coffee for at home. The person who watches me brew the coffee. You, are the only person I share that experience.

A fade smile runs across my face from his answer.

Taehee

So, why are you here, taking this class? I could have taught you myself at home if you asked me…

MC

Well, I loved the mornings we spend together as you make coffee and we chat and such. I wanted to show you how lovely that time is, too. So I secretly registered a class to learn to brew coffee.

Taehee

No, no-, I wasn’t asking that, dummy.

MC

Eh?

Taehee

You can’t seriously think that I don’t know the reason why you wanted to learn to brew coffee, do you? Of course I know why you wanted to learn this. I love our morning time, too. More than you think, probably.

The time I spend in the morning with Taehee is quite short. And we do not share much words during that morning coffee time. But it seems that we had piled up the words we wanted to tell each other in ourselves.

Taehee

To think someone else seeing you make coffee with your eyes sparkling is… It may sound childish.

But we are liking our morning for similar reasons.

Taehee

But I feel a little jealous on it.

So similar that we both think it may be childish.
