Bakery

First

It was a sunny morning, people are busy roaming outside, not minding the heat. Even though some of them are complaining they still continue walking under the sun.

But inside the bakery shop, the people didn't feel the heat. You can see some kinds of people minding their own business. Some of them are eating, reading, drinking, talking, and more.

The bakery is noisy as people come and go, buying what to buy. But there's this one person that caught everyone's attention. It is a very tall, charming, human entering the bakery. 

As people may describe him, yes, he's charming but that's not the reason. It's because of what he's wearing, it looks like he just came out of Iceland or something. Yes, from what you may imagine, he's wearing a thick-freaking-coat. A very, very thick coat in a sunny-freaking-day. 

Who would've thought to wear a thick coat in a very hot day? no one except for Percie. The guy who just entered earlier.

Not minding the attention his getting, Percie continue on walking towards the people that was lining up to order. Not long enough it's now his turn to order, he order some cupcake and a loaf of bread.

"How much is it?" Percie ask. The cashier, Mercury, said his bill.

"The bread is 47 and 150 for the cupcakes . A total of 197 pesos, sir." Mercury said and look at the man in front of him.

Percie took out his wallet and pay the bills. After paying he then walk out of the shop. 

As for Mercury, he slightly glance at the person leaving the bakery and then quickly look away focusing on what his doing. 

Percie walk under the scorching sun but he didn't mind it at all because he is busy thinking about the cashier that he just meet earlier inside the bakery. He find that guy adorable cause of what his wearing. A small hat and an apron, very much a cutie, that just make the guy-Mercury look adorb's on it. He just can't stop thinking about him. What is happening to me? I ain't like this before? right?

Percie was lost in his thoughts while walking on the sidewalk and didn't notice that there is a guy following behind him. The guy followed him silently, if possible he would tip-toe just so that he can't make some noise. The guy was planning to do something terrible to Percie while the latter, still lost in his thoughts.

But sad to say, Percie already notice him. He suddenly turn around just to find out that the guy stops walking meters away from him. He glared at him and continue walking like nothing just happened a while ago.

As for the guy, he run as fast as he could when he saw the death glare Percie sent him. Scared that Percie might change his mind. 

On the other side. 

Mercury, the bakery guy, somehow can't stop thinking about the guy earlier even though his busy doing his job. He just couldn't take him off his mind, and that bother him.

Because of that, he made a huff sound and blow some of his hair strands that's been poking and covering his eyes. "This is bad. Dang! I need to focus," he mumble in a low voice but still the costumer in front of him still hear what he said. 

"Excuse me? What do you mean by 'this is bad'?" the costumer in front of him confusedly asked making him jumped a little and look at the costumer, shocked.

"Oh God! I'm so sorry, that's not meant for you," he apologized making his whole face red in embarrassment, "Please forget about that. I didn't expect you to hear it."

The costumer chuckles, looking at the sight she's seeing in front of her. "Oh it's fine. Don't be sorry," she said and that made Mercury sigh in relief. "Can you punch this up for me?" 

"Oh yeah. I'm sorry again, I'll punch this up for you real quick," he said and punch the loaf bread and cookies that the lady bought.

Because of what happened, Mercury need to focus on his work or else his boss will get mad at him. And he need to get the man out of his mind even though he didn't know the reason why his been thinking about Percie.

But little did he know, the man he's been thinking also thinks of him all day confuse as hell as to why he thinks of him.
