"Thank you for coming, maam! Hope you'll visit us again!"
You assisted the woman to open the door of the coffee shop you're working in. When the last customer finally left, you flipped the flashcard around pasted on the glass door, from "Come in, we're OPEN!" to "Sorry, we're CLOSED."
"Once again, we got many customers for today... and we served em' all properly.", your co-worker Haewon proudly said, wiping her hands with a clean towel.
"Nice one guys!", Yuna said who just finished wiping the tables. You did a group high-five with them after. Your friendship with them is just wholesome, that's why. "This is why I like rainy season so much.", she said while looking outside. She's referring to the shop earning more money from the customers which makes it more successful to the public.
"You're not alone~", your fellow male co-worker Jooyeon said in a sing-song tone, crossing his arms.
"Hey, can we prepare now? I really want to go home now to rest and chill with this weather.", he stretched his back and caressed the skin of his arms.
"Yeah, same. You too guys right?", you said, agreeing with what Jooyeon said.
You pointed your finger at Yuna then moved it next to Haewon.
"No need to ask, Y/N. Ofcourse we want it too.", Haewon chuckled.
The manager just left his office and then walked towards you, Haewon, Yuna and Jooyeon. "Alright, shop's now closed. We need to prepare so that we can go home now. Lucky day is up tomorrow so save some energy to have fun with your salary."
"Kamsahamnida, manager-nim!", all of you exclaimed which the manager just smiled back at you four.
----------------
"Bye guys! Be safe on the way home!", you waved your hands as you shouted at your friends.
"You too!", you heard Haewon and the two also did the same as her. You started to walk now, separating yourself from the three since you are the only one who is not going in the same direction as them.
While walking on the wet ground, raindrops crashing down at the cover of your umbrella, you noticed something as you passed an alley.
There was this white bunny who seems like it is trying to sleep but only end up failing. Its body is also shaking, probably due to the cold weather. The bunny is trying hard too to make itself warm by curling its body.
"Oh man, why is this bunny here?", you slowly walked near at the bunny. You expected that it will hop away from you because of how intimidating you look from its eyes but it didn't happen, much to your relief.
You nearly kneeled on the ground just to have a closer look at the poor bunny. Then, you noticed that it is shivering. "God, I feel pity for this creature.", you sighed.
You became silent for a second, thinking on what you should do until you finally cane up with a decision that you want bring this poor bunny along on your way home so that it could have a shelter to shed into during this weather. This creature doesn't deserve to stay outside knowing how dangerous it is.
"Alright, that's it.", you muttered to yourself. "Hey, you adorale bun-bun. Let me carry you okay? We'll go somewhere warm.", you said to the bunny. You reached for your bag to pull out some baby blue colored towel and then gently wrapped it around the bunny. Fortunately, the bunny cooperated with you too so you easily picked it up and placed it on your arm.
-------------------
You finally arrived at your house, you removed your shoes and placed it on the shoerack then you removed your jacket and your bag hanging on your shoulder, placing it at the couch.
You gently placed the bunny on a pillow, removing the towel wrapped around it. "Stay here, okay? I'll be right back.", you left the bunny and head towards your bedroom to replace the uniform you're wearing into pajamas.
You returned back at the living room to approach the bunny. "Are you hungry?", you asked it. You even noticed that it somewhat nods a little, making you amazed and feel like the two of you can understand each other well. " Hmm okay, I'll go get some food okay?"
You head towards the kitchen then opened the refrigerator. "Alright what do we have here? Wait, what do they always eat again?", you halted, looking downwards. "Oh, yes carrots!"
You reached for the carrot on the container below the refrigerator the you closed it. You returned back to the living room, now with a carrot on your hand.
"Want some carrots?", you asked the bunny. The bunny raised its head, eyes widened at the delicious vegetable in front of it. The bunny was gonna reach for the carrot and that made you understand it already that the bunny wants it. "Hehe, sure you got it."
The bunny starts eating the carrot hungrily. You just watched it how fast it bites its food. You were getting a bit entertained at what you're witnessing because of its cheek getting even more puffier while it's chewing, making it look more adorable to your sight.
You also gave it some water placed on a small bowl, which the bunny drinks at it too fastly. "This poor snowball. Who owns this rabbit anyway?", you furrowed your eyebrows. "I mean, I see dogs and cats mostly everywhere on the streets but... bunny? Really?"
You turned your body around after you stood up to walk through the bag placed in your couch to pull out your phone. While checking the social media, you noticed something very... very.... strange.
"Thank you for these."
You heard that someone just spoke inside your house. You knew that you're alone with this bunny so you wondered who the hell does that voice came from.
It made you halt and look away from the phone, turning your head a bit to the side, furrowing your eyebrow, confused on what you just heard.
"Uhh... what the? W-who's there?", you finally turned around to find that person who owns that voice you just heard. You expected it also to be a woman, since the voice sounded very feminine. But to your disappointment, no one catches your eyes.
"I'm here, stranger!"
You heard it again, which made your eyes roam around the room just to find again where did that voice came from. You failed again, so it makes you feel a bit scared and nervous that someone just broke into your house and toying you right now.
"Show yourself! Why are you here in m-", you exclaimed, clearly audible to your voice that you're getting a bit mad now.
"DOWN HERE!!!"
You lowered your head, and you saw something you're not really expecting at all.
The bunny is standing right in front of you with its hind legs, looking upwards just to look at you. You refused to think that the voice came from this animal but you had to make sure since the voice said that you need to look down, and this is the only one you can notice as the one with you inside the house.
"Y- you... Did you.."
"Yes.", you saw its mouth moved, that made it clear to you that the voice came from this white bunny.
Wait, what?
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!", you stumbled backwards, making you fell on the floor, butt first on the ground. You closed your mouth with your hands immediately, just to avoid making any more loud noise that will make the neighbors irritated in the middle of the night.
"DID YOU JUST SPEAK? WAIT HOW-"
"Wait, calm down...", the bunny said, leaning her head forward.
"Who are you? Is this even real?", you said with pure panic in your tone.
"Hey, please! Just calm down okay, I won't hurt you by eating you like in movies.", the bunny said, making you stop talking but still you felt like your heartbeat is gonna explode in less than a minute.
"Uhh.. okay? Fine, I-I'll calm down.", then you tried your best.
"Okay, what really is happening right now? How can you speak? Are you an alien or something?", you immediately asked the first thoughts in your mind.
"No. I- I'm"
"You're what?"
"I know it's even hard to believe any of this but I'll just say it anyway.", she paused for a second. "I-I'm cursed to be like this."
"Cursed?", you confusedly asked the bunny. "You mean, you're a human but something like a.. spell or something has casted you to turn into... a bunny?"
