That sentence had him staring at the girl as though it would draw from her the truth. “I must catch up quick...” Was all he said after a pause, sharpening his eyes as he considered all the blurred lines in that sentence. “If by that you mean you have nothing to be cleansing, hallelujah.” He emphasized the word even more by gesturing to greet the Heavens. “Well, I...” Jungyeol was about to object but, remembering how picky Areum was, it could turn out being a good thing. “... might agree to that.” It was pretty obvious he had already agreed to that. “Tough quest you got there. S grade. But sure. Let’s go not find that boy-slash-young man of yours.”

“I may have picked up a few unknown skills while you were away, Appa, skills that are essential to a girl like me.” She chuckled at how her thoughts were formulated, a light shrug of her shoulder made afterwards. She couldn’t help but grin at his gestures. “I wouldn’t call it sass though. I’m just being… hmm… let’s say– opinionated? Clever? And surely, we will go and pray and– well, if it’s necessary, cleanse too? I was just thinking of praying to be honest. Ah! I will also ask Areum Unni to join us in our quest to find my designated boy? Young man? Yes, I think young man sounds better!”

“Like what?” He asked back promptly – and rather defensively at that – yet, for being found guilty for staring, he had to be quick and come up with a plausible excuse. “There is, uh—“ Jungyeol pointed at his own lips while staring at hers, then pointed at them, then back and forth a couple times –  “Lipstick. It’s a bit... smudgy.” – and walked off immediately, playing with the straps of his backpack nervously to cover up for the white lie. “I can eat quickly and go back, it’s no problem, really.” Areum was just so good to look at and the reasons for that were in no way tangible. It could be her petite figure but most girls were petite near him. Perhaps the way she dressed so soberly? Part of her charm indeed, but nothing new either. Junhee brought them together once and the male remembered feeling like someone so precious to his beloved “birdy” should also be taken under his wings – even if he was the top defenseless one among them, ironically or not. They had clicked naturally, allowing them to become what they were today – a trio – and even as the years flew by, giving each of them different hardships to deal with and paths that led them farther from each other, the bonds only grew thicker. However, no matter how he looked at it, he couldn’t tell precisely when her friendship stopped being enough and, fearing his feelings were just a reflex of Juniel’s absence between the couple, he held that secret to himself and didn’t act on it. What he didn’t know is how terrible he was at hiding. “Geunyang...” His shoulders bounced, teeth digging onto the flesh of his bottom lip like usual when he was trying to hide something he was up to and was about to spill anyway. “It may or may not be related to you denying me buying you chocolates for White Day, who knows. It’s long gone now so that and... this...” He slid the latter across the table over to her. “- are completely unrelated therefore you have no reason to refuse them.” Raising a hand to support his chin, he kept his gaze away from hers as he assured the girl he was not skipping class despite of how good that idea sounded at that very moment; but he would have to peer at her eventually and so he mustered the courage to check her reaction – which filled him with color once again. All that work is paying off at last. “I don’t mean to brag but I’m quite gifted.” He bragged; with a smile half proud and half sheepish, pinching a random roll. “Any girl would be lucky to have a boyfriend with such abilities in doshirak making.” The sentence lingered as he stuffed himself, pretending to be too busy chewing to care about that clumsy hint he had just blurted out.

“Why are you looking at me like that?” Areum remarked as she stopped the nagging midway and threw a small judging look at him. Even though it was not the first time she had received that kind of regard in their years of friendship, she was not completely aware of the meaning behind it. “Well that is because you have class after while I don’t! It’s not the same thing and you should think of yourself you know… Wait, you brought us lunch?” She blinked after processing his words in her head. Before the female student could do anything else, the other had already started moving her to another location and seemed to be thrilled by the idea of her trying out his food. “What’s the occasion?” She let her feet move to the direction that the her friend was pushing them to while looking at him with confusion.

Taking a seat next to the male, Areum’s eyes were fixed on his backpack which seemed to contain the sandwiches that he appeared to be eager of making her taste. “I thought you said you had class. Don’t tell me you’re skipping it.” She looked back up and slightly squinted at him to display her discontentment about it. But once the artist lied eyes on the packed lunch while listening to his explanation, she gaped in astonishment. The sandwiches were nicely presented and actually looked appetizing unlike how she expected them to be. Furthermore, she couldn’t find anything bad to point out.

Observing the food with now more interest, the female crossed her arms over the table as she waited for the permission to eat. When she received the cue, Areum grabbed the kind that he first described to her before taking a small bite out of it. It was an interesting combination of ingredients which appeared to be new and fresh to the freelancer’s tastebuds. “Oh~ Not bad at all. You’ve made some progress Nam Jungyeol!” Covering her mouth, she nodded a few times as she acknowledged his efforts. “I must admit, I’m quite impressed.”

His body language changed completely as he turned to the girl, wide eyed. "Awesome! I'm so in! What do I need? I mean... tickets I need to buy or... When is it?"

And she let out a laugh, “Well, didn’t then have a comeback like a few weeks ago? I’m sure they would be still promoting~” she hummed out.

"Naega eonje?!" The male retorted. “You got the wrong guy, noona, I’ve never done that. Besides, I don't even see why being short is funny. It's just...  cute. On others." Because he liked being tall even if that made him a little clumsy. In fact, he was the one being bullied about his height all the time, not the other way around. "Even two since you're paying.”

“Jokes aren’t wrong, but using me as an armrest is.” She threw a glare at him before her eyes shifted over to the waiter passing between the tables, and seeing him jump when Jungyeol shouted out loud had her burst in a fit of giggles. “Way to go. You gotta feed me a bite though, okay?”

( sms. ) I watched Ouran the other day, it made me think of you.

“I’m just babbling.” He shrugged. No point in arguing. “Isn’t that exactly what a sleepwalker would say? Or feel. They're pretty much unaware... unless it's been prior diagnosed - but if that isn't the case I... I just really hope I'm wrong." Her defense made him grimace as he wasn't sure whether he should laugh of sigh and got stuck somewhere in between whilst dressing up his jacket; and then wrapped Seulgi's around her shoulders seeing she completely ignored it. "I suppose that works for a reasonable explanation." Because of course she would, Jungyeol mused as they crossed the doorway. "You think we could score some seafood? That's a long shot, is it not? I was just hoping for spicy rice cakes instead of ramen but that works much better!"

“What are you talking about?” All she could do is to laughat his retort, she can’t seem to stop herself from smiling at the fact thattheir friendship never faltered, there’s nothing they could do to actually tearthis friendship apart and that’s one of the things that she likes most aboutit. With that, she can conclude that they both understand in their own littleways, and that’s why he’s one of those few that she trusts the most. “Notreally, when I sleep, I’m like a dead log, you should know that!” He should,because it’s been a while since they started sleeping together, with him on thefloor and her on the bed whenever she forgets to pay for her rent, and she getskicked out for a day. “But maybe… just maybe, you know, I wake up in the middleof the night and kind of get hungry?” There’s a grin on her lips, taking hisarm on hers while walking ahead as soon as she slips on her shoes by thedoorway. “We should! I heard there’s a spring edition of that couple thing. Let’sorder seafood this time, spicy!”

As Jungyeol considered today was not his lucky day either, he blinked several times to help her from noticing his wandering eyes. It wasn't intentional that they kept averting from her eyes to her lips sometimes - mostly when she was going off non stop about something she felt strongly about or in moments such as that, when they had just reunited after a while. Only "a while" was such a short spam of time in his conception... "Ah-- why are you nagging me when you haven't eaten either! I wouldn't start without you, noona. Besides, I brought sandwiches. They're surprisingly good and I wanted to see your reaction when you eat them." The excitement was clear as he spoke, an arm folding behind her shoulders to lead her towards the stone table nearby.

Once she was seated, he removed his backpack and - from it - a medium sized box containing half a dozen triangle shaped sandwiches neatly disposed inside. "I peeled the bread and - since I wasn't sure about your preference regarding these - I made 3 different fillings. These two are tuna with small pieces of chopped pepper, onion and cucumber plus a dash of lemon juice and a drizzle of vinegar. These here are egg mayo with lettuce and celery and finally these two are plain peanut butter and banana slices." The male finished his presentation resting both arms on the surface of the table that seemed to frame his proud facade. Each sandwich was decorated with halves of olive, cherry tomato and cheese pinned together in a tiny representation of a kebab.

He wasn't keen on cooking nor did he have the time to explore that (lack of) ability but, whenever he put the right amount of effort into it, something good would come out - and it wasn't time to think about the never ending mess left behind back in his apartment he had no time to clean before class. "I don't mean to brag, but I think I nailed it, noona." He waddled in place, showing off a large grin and urged her to eat. "Go on, try them."

“Three, two… one, run!” Areum raced to the podium as soon as they were dismissed from class. It was all a matter of surviving or not in university. However, being seated at the back of the room, she had no chance to be first up there. People would normally think that being second in line wouldn’t be so bad but they were wrong. There was always that one student who would ask a long list of questions even when they were not relevant and taking over the teacher’s time at the end of the tutorial. Like a never ending scroll rolling down the few stairs… The female grimaced at the thought while waiting.

In hope that it’d be her turn soon, she lightly hopped on her heels in impatience, mentally preparing her question in case the other would stop talking at any time. A few glances were also thrown at the clock of her phone every now and then. Unfortunately, the chance never came and the remaining students who had questions for the teacher, including her, had to visit the instructor during his office hours to relay their inquiries. Knowing she had just wasted her time and that her best friend would still be waiting for her at their usual meeting place, she let out a long sigh as she disliked the idea of making him wait without having anything accomplished.

The freelancer hurried to the appointment as she quickly moved to another building in the campus. Little yet fast steps were made, she greeted the seniors along the way before spotting the tall man waving at her from afar. Her lips instantly curved up at the sight of the male while returning his gesture. “Oh, Jungyeol ah! Mian.” Areum joined his side as she watched him regain his breath. “I didn’t forget… I was stuck after class. I thought I would be done after a few minutes but it took longer than I thought— Today is not my lucky day.” Small nods were done to emphasize her words. “You didn’t eat yet, right?” She suddenly asked although she already knew the answer. “Babo, you should have eaten first without me.” She scolded the other although in real she felt bad and took out some snacks from her bag to give them to him.

“Making jokes about height, I see. What... They’re only wrong when I make them? Pft.” He raised his cup, mumbling nonsense over his coffee before sipping it and almost choked upon hearing her demand. Jungyeol hurriedly placed the dish down before raising an arm, wide eyes on the waiter. “Strawberry Cake, please!"

As he showed a pout, Hyojung grinned, glad to see he had heard her out. “Next time around I’ll wear high heels, I just can’t reach your head without ‘em.” She pushed her mouth to the side for an instant, then stretched her arms. “Anyway, today it’s on noona so if you want a pastry with your coffee, speak up now or never.”

“Will Red Velvet be there?!”

“Who wants to come with me to inkigayo?” she wanted to see the comebacks live, she hasn’t gone to a music show in awhile, and Hyerim thought since it was comeback season, she should go.

But why, why, why can’t people just say what they mean?

“... look at that. All that sass, where does it come from? You certainly didn’t get it from me-- ooh.” He rubbed the nape of his neck and looked away dramatically as if his blood pressure had risen too fast. “I won’t even... let’s just do it. We’ll go and pray and cleanse ourselves of our sins though I doubt you have any. I hope... I doubt. ... Aaa~reum noona? Uh-- yes. Most definitely! Let’s all go!”

“… ah. Well, won’t that be difficult? The church is a good place to find Jesus, no? Unlike our Lord, which by the way I do not mind making some time Sunday to offer my prayers to him, the suitable one destined to be my loved one does not have a specific or preferred location where we can just go to get in contact with him. Also, should we invite Areum Unni as well?”

“You need to tone it down, Deanny boy. I’m not jealous of you or anyone.” Jungyeol sat up to grab the remote and volume up the TV now that his friend was getting noisy with a snack pack, snatching one of the chips from his hand before laying back down. “Seriously? I thought the reason you talk funny was because there was something wrong with your tongue or something.” He explained, eyes on the screen while he pushed the chip into his mouth. "You were raised in Canada all the while then? When did you move back here?"

“…I’m not sure if I sense a bit of jealousy in that tone of yours but I’m just gonna let it slide.” Dean chuckled and rubbed his face before reaching over the side of the couch. He grabbed a bag of chips and scooped up a big handful, eating them happily. “I’m a hundred percent Korean, keep your panties on over there but, ah, I’m from Toronto. In Canada..though, I’m flattered that my Korean is good enough to sound like a native speaker, that is a huge boost to my ego..even though it is my first language–” He was probably talking too much by now.

MISS YOU BBG :-)

"How is that cool? I heard girls like western languages so you're - once again - on the cool side here." He admitted, tucking an arm beneath his head. "Hang on-- you're not korean?! Where are you from then?" His eyes meet the screen, the other hand on his chest sliding down to fix his shirt down around the hip line before resuming its previous position. "Yeah, yeah..." Jungyeol hummed in response, keeping his gratitude to himself.

“Awh shit, you speak Japanese?! That’s so cool. I only learned like french and one semester of Spanish in high school. That is the extent of my–well, I guess Korean is a foreign language too for me but we wouldn’t be on the same wavelength with that one.” The male patted the others feet and nodded, pressing play with dubs. “We’ll see if you want to watch it enough to stay awake but like, if sleep is calling your name, don’t resist it, yeah?”
