The After The Rain
Caramel Macchiato

"Caramel Macchiato one, less sugar, less ice. Caramel Latte one, normal sugar, normal ice. Poured Tiramisu one another Strawberry Pistachio Tart one." Dahayu managed to say all orders smoothly without any constraints.

In accordance with the promise they had made this morning, now Dahayu and Kinara are in one of the Cafe Dessert that has just opened since a few months ago.

Actually, Dahayu has long wanted to invite Kinara to hang out at this cafe because according to rumors circulating, the cake sold here is very tasty. But since Kinara is not a typical who likes to hang out, be new to the present.

Since Kinara already had the initiative to invite him to hang out first, Dahayu certainly did not want to waste the opportunity. That way he was eager to find out what menus are provided in this cafe, so that now he can order smoothly without the need for drama confused what message.

"Caramel Macchiato one, less sugar, less ice. Caramel Latte one, normal sugar, normal ice. Poured Tiramisu each other Strawberry Pistachio Tart one. Anything else, Brother?" ask a girl who stands behind the counter after finishing repeating the order Dahayu has mentioned in order to avoid mistakes.

"Udah, that's it."

"Well, what's the payment for?" ask the girl again.

"Debit." Said Dahayu while holding out the debit card he had prepared since.

The short-haired girl by boat received a card belonging to Dahayu and immediately processed the payment. Finished entering the appropriate nominal and Dahayu has also entered the six-digit security code, the card is returned to the owner with a friendly smile that does not fade.

"Please wait, brother."

"Thank you." Say Dahayu with a friendly smile to balance the attitude of the girl in front.

While waiting for her order to be prepared, Dahayu turned around, looking away at the direction where Kinara was sitting alone in one of the corner seats near the large glass window that led to the street. The girl seemed to throw a distant view forward, making Dahayu curious, what if it was so interesting that a thin smile appeared to decorate her beautiful face?

In the midst of his activities looking at Kinara, the memory of their first meeting a few years ago turned perfectly in the head.

At that time, he and Kinara were attending a student orientation program and were both getting punished because there was one item that they did not bring according to the direction of the level brother. They were both sentenced around campus to search for one of the elder sisters to be asked for an autograph. Armed with only a name, they were told to find an elder brother of that level within thirty minutes.

Of course they failed. Not because it was too difficult to find the person they were looking for, but because they had given up first. Dahayu, who is basically lazy, even invited Kinara to cover the faculty cafeteria and meatballs there until the return hour arrived. As a result, they had to receive additional punishment the next day.

Dahayu giggled amusedly as she recalled how innocent Kinara was when the girl casually followed every step she took. Both then and now, Kinara is still a plain girl who can always make Dahayu amazed by her simple way of thinking. Not as complicated as he is.

If only the voice of the girl behind him did not interrupt, Dahayu would probably spend more time looking at Kinara. Research his every move until they accidentally come into contact with the eye and end up laughing out loud, as they usually do.

"Please, Brother."

Dahayu picked up the tray that was extended by the girl, lifted her up slowly then led her towards the table where Kinara was already waiting. Right now, the girl was turning her head so that their gazes could meet and Dahayu could see Kinara's wide smile more clearly.

"Caramel Macchiato, less ice, less sugar." Dahayu said while putting Kinara's Caramel Macchiato.

"Thank you." Kinara said as she lifted her Caramel Macchiato cup face-high.

"My pleasure." Answer Dahayu. Then he duked himself across from Kinara after making sure all the food and drinks were neatly arranged on the table.

"You want a photo?" tanya Kinara who has memorized the movements of Dahayu. The girl would not have arranged the food to such an extent if it were not for her to take a picture first.

Kinara mangosteen only. Dahayu's Instagram account cannot be underestimated. So far, the girl has managed to gather more than six hundred thousand loyal followers who always flood every post with various compliments and beautiful sentences that win hearts.

So it is natural that Dahayu always tries to make her Instragram feed remain beautiful and aesthetic.

Unlike Dahayu, Kinara does not like to show herself and all the activities she is living. The Instagram account he created four years ago was only followed by about a thousand people, a number that is very decrepit when compared to Dahayu's.

Despite that, Kinara remained happy. He still occasionally posts some things that if he can post and reply to good comments that come in, although not as much as Dahayu's.

"Feed!" exclaim Dahayu after managed to get some photos that he thought were good.

Of course, the girl's activities did not stop there. Because the photos still have to be edited in such a way before it is actually posted.

While waiting for Dahayu to finish editing photos, Kinara sipped her Caramel Macchiato first. The espresso flavor combined with steamed milk and vanilla syrup and sweet caramel sauce makes the Kinara tongue dance.

Usually, he would still find Caramel Macchiato too sweet despite ordering a less sugar. But the taste of Caramel Macchiato in this cafe really fit as he expected. No wonder that this cafe can immediately become an idol among the many other cafes that have already stood around the campus.

"Nake?"

Kinara raised her gaze, then nodded. "Sugary fits." His comments honestly.

Dahayu looked satisfied smiling. Though it was not him who concocted the Caramel Macchiato that Kinara drank, but somehow, Dahayu felt proud.

"Next time we try another menu."

Kinara just nodded her head and sipped her drink again.

"Good thing is that the bug is still in class, otherwise he'll be doing us again."

Hearing Dahayu mention Atha fleas kupret practically made the unfinished Kinara swallow his drink choked. The girl coughed because there were a few drops of drinks straying into the respiratory tract to make her nose feel sore.

"Well, why?!" panicked Dahayu while helping pat Kinara on the back.

"You, anyway!" kinara's nagging after her cough subsided. Although the pain is now also starting to feel in his throat.

"Well, why me?" Dahayu pointed to herself with a innocent look without sin.

"Because you call Atha a flea cupret, that's why I'm sprained."

"That's my call to Atha, so you have to get used to it." After saying that, Dahayu sipped her Caramel Latte with a sinless look.

Kinara could only shake his head. Then, he took another sip of the remaining Caramel Macchiato, bit by bit, until the sweet taste of the drink was left at the base of his tongue for quite a long time.
