Windows | NCT Ten

Chapter 63

Yeona's POV

NCT really is the same online as they are in person. There's really no way to describe them with words. They're just chaotic.

One second I was telling Chunmei and Chaemin about how Ten and I hung out this morning and faced our fears together, and then the next second, they were adding me into a group chat with the whole group.

It took me a while to figure out who everyone was and to save each of their numbers, but we got it done, so at least I know who's who.

It's sort of overwhelming, but at the same time, I'm more comfortable with these idols than I am with most other people.

"Wow Luna, these people text really fast," I say to my cat, talking to her like she's a human again. Obviously, the feline doesn't care at all. She just turns her head for a second, then goes back to grooming herself.

I exit the group chat for just a second to take a picture of her, an admiring smile on her face. "Cats literally never do anything that isn't photogenic," I say to myself, looking at the myriad of Luna pictures in my gallery. Honestly, it might as well be a Luna album by now.

Then back to the group chat I go. It seems like Chaemin and Chunmei are relaying the stories I've told them about Haeyoung to the rest of the group.

This time I can keep up with the messages easier, mostly because WayV has gone off to practice so there are less messages to read. At least, it makes it easier for me to read while eating lunch.

SO YEONA WORKS AT A CAFÉ RIGHT

Chun-minator
THIS IS THE SAME CAFÉ THAT WINWIN AND I GO TO
EXCEPT SHE WORKS THE AFTERNOON SHIFT SO-

Haechan
WOW
YEONA CAN WE HAVE DISCOUNTS?

I consider his request for a moment, a smile on my face. Of course I'm going to give them discounts. In fact, the manager allows us to give discounts to people that are related to us, and I'd say that NCT fits that pretty well.

I almost type out my answer in lowercase, then decide that it wouldn't be right for me to break the chain of caps.

Chenle

Taeyong

After watching a long chain of clapping emojis rapidly moving from the bottom of my screen, I suddenly realize that it's time for me to go to the café. With a reluctant sigh, I stand up from the table, giving Luna a goodbye pat.

Me
speaking of café, I gotta head to work now
byeee

~Time Skip~

It's been a pretty uneventful day at the café, just the usual work. And I've had a pretty uneventful dinner, just the usual eating in silence.

I've just finished washing the dishes when a notifications sounds from my phone. I pick it up, reading the two messages on the screen. And for some reason, I have a really bad feeling about them.

Chitta-smth ❤️
