"Doughnut" - PART 1 | TWICE x Male Reader

(PRESENT DAY)
DECEMBER 2022

It's a snowy nighttime. Under the dark sky with stars sparkling covering it is a street where many people are gathering around along with police cars and ambulance cars parked outside of a doughnut shop.

The policemen are trying to guard these civilians who are curiously watching what's happening from entering the crime scene.

Inside the shop has some evidences which has been marked, but there is one which if you look at it, you will think that is the most important one out of all the evidences that has been found by the policemen and detectives.

A bitten white doughnut with red syrup flowing from its inside is seen laying on a floor with police barrier tapes around its space.

From the dark corner of the shop, a woman slowly appears near to the bitten doughnut.

She sat and looked closely at the bitten doughnut.

A frowning expression in her face can be seen as she remembers everything what happened before this unexpected tragic moment....

"Mmhmm, I'll give the payment tomorrow if that's then.", you hummed, responding to the caller behind the phone you are having a conversation to.

"Sure. I'll just gonna prepare your order when I came home tomorrow.", the girly voice said.

"Got it.", you said in a sing-song tone. "God, I can't wait for those strawberries, Chae. I've been craving so bad.", you said while having the only picture of a strawberry inside your mind.

"Hahaha, keep yourself still, Y/N. It will all end tomorrow.", the caller which is your friend, Chae or in her full name Son Chaeyoung; just laughed back at you. She finds it hilarious and a bit adorable to hear you like this.

"Yeah.", you huffed calmly. "I gotta go now, I'm about to do something here. Bye, lil cub!", you bid goodbye to your friend.

"Bye!", Chaeyoung greeted back and she finally dropped the call, ending it. You turned off your cellphone and placed it back at your pocket.

The oven made a "ding" sound, so you open it and released the fully baked doughnuts laying in a metal tray. You placed it at the rack where you or your employees will reach at it once the displayed ones in the glass shelf at the cashier is now empty.

You walked outside the kitchen, stepping at the cashier to find your employee Hyunjin, preparing some order at the counter.

"I'll take it here. You go switch with me at the kitchen.", you said after you walked near at him while he's placing some doughnuts at the tray after reaching for a sheet of tissue paper.

"Sure boss!", Hyunjin said and left his work at the counter for you to continue it.

"So the order is one chocolate doughnut and one pink sprinkled doughnut, huh?"

"Yup.", you nodded and Hyunjin leaves you alone as he walks back at the kitchen.

You picked up the tray with two doughnuts to serve it at the customer who ordered this. So you turned around to the front to gave it.

"Alright. Here's your order m-", before you finish your words, you halted and remained frozen for a second. You are shocked at stunned to see who is the customer you were about to serve to.

It was a brown long haired woman who is cheekily smiling at the displayed doughnuts she's looking closely at. After she sensed that her order is now up through her peripheral vision, she stood straight again and reached for the tray you are holding at.

You just watched her slowly raise her head to look at you while lending her the tray. And when both of each other's eyes met, she felt the same as what you are having right now after you saw her.

But the most visible one on hers is sadness.

"Y-Y/N?", she said, stuttering while she still keeps her stare at you.

"N-Nayeon?", you spoke her name too, stuttered the same as her.

---------------------

You two are now are now facing at each other in a table. She is sitting in front of you as the tray is in front of her. You are just watching her eating the doughnut you made.

It's good to see her again, even after what happened to you two before.

Nayeon is your one of your ex-girlfriend. She was your third before your current one which name is Shin Ryujin. You two broke up because of some misunderstanding about a misleading information or scenario that made her look at you like you are cheating at her.

"I really decided to come here actually.", she said after taking a bit at the pink doughnut. "I missed your doughnuts so much and god it still didn't changed. Still delicious.", you are just listening her while you can't believe that she's talking comfortably to you after what you did to her.

"Didn't expect that you'll be here.", she want some normal talk? Fine, you'll give it to her then. "It's been like... almost a year since we br- I mean, we saw each other.", thankfully you paused at saying that word because you don't want her to remind it again which might change her again for you to witness what impact you gave to her after what you did.

"Yeah it is. I got busy at some things, that's why I don't have time meeting people I know these days.", she said, still not looking at you because she's focused at eating.

"How are you doing, by the way?", you said, placing both of your elbows at the table with hands clasping at each other.

"I'm fine. I'm preparing for the promotions of my debut which is coming next week. I just got a free time today after a long time of craving since... I found myself needing a rest you know?", she said. It's glad to hear it from her. You know also the struggle she had because she really wanted to become an idol in an entertainment agency.. You were the one who is cheering and supporting her up at those times.

"Oh, wow. That's great. Congratulations!", you are so proud of her. That's what one of the things you wanted for her to happen in her life.
"You are now achieved your dreams of becoming an idol, I see."

"Thanks. I'm so grateful that destiny gave me this opportunity to finally fulfill my goals.", she said while smiling. "How about you?"

"I'm okay too. Shop's running pretty well... like I how want it to be.", you shurgged, wandering your eyes around the shop.

You two went on an awkward silence. All you can hear was the little sounds being made by the customers on their tables and Nayeon humming in satisfaction on how delicious the doughnut tastes after taking a bite on it.

You don't know that deep inside she is actually getting nervous but she doesn't want to show it to you. She wants to do it already but... she is scared at the same time.

You decided to broke the silence to avoid each other being suffocated at this atmosphere. And the next topic you gave made her finally had the courage to do it for you.

"Nay."

"Hmm?"

"I'm sorry. For what I did to you before.", she stopped eating, keeping her grip at the doughnut still. You are looking deeply at her as you apologized, making your guilt can be seen in your eyes.

"I want to take this opportunity to say what I wanted to say since that day we broke up. I didn't became the boyfriend you always wanted me to be. I'm sorry if I disappointed you... especially by breaking your trust.", you said with sadness clearly being heared from the tone of your voice.

She raised her head to look at you. Now you can see again the features of your face that has been the cause of you being in love with her before and the very first thing she brags a lot to everyone. Yes, she is pretty and perfect as she says... and you are the one of the few who just let her be like that because... uhh that's the truth, right?

"Y/N, past is past. I already forgive you. I understand you now. It's my fault anyways. I should've listened to your side and gave myself to process everything that I just witnessed.

But... I chose to be stubborn and selfish and chose to look myself only, believing that I am right. So, I'm sorry too.",
