The smell of freshly roasted beans and thick milk foam became a familiar backdrop to Taehyung's long day. A self-sufficient graduate, he poured all his energy into his waiter job. Jungkook, the coffee shop owner, noticed this unwavering pride in the younger man's eyes from the very first day. Upon learning that Taehyung was living hand-to-mouth, struggling to provide for himself, Jungkook tried to help directly, but was firmly rebuffed. Taehyung didn't want pity—he wanted respect. So Jungkook began to take a more subtle approach. He set up a hidden bonus for Taehyung, adjusted his schedule, and personally drove him home after his shift, citing that "it was on his way anyway."

Today was payday. Taehyung walked into Jungkook's office, received his envelope, and left relieved. But before leaving, in the empty hall, he glanced inside and noticed that the amount was twice what he was supposed to. Without a second thought, he returned to his boss's office, his face flushed with indignation and embarrassment. Jungkook sat at his desk, calmly watching the man who had burst in.

"Is something wrong, Taehyung? I'm already done, just wait a few minutes, I'll take you home," Jungkook said innocently, pretending not to know the reason for the boy's sudden visit.
