ahreum had it hard maintaining a poker face after what she heard, coughing and randomly choking on air,

"uh..okay, why?" she asked, regaining her cool,

"um, not sure. he's a great friend, if i actually think about it, and i feel comfy around him" somin muttered, talking with both eyes closed,

"any other traits?"

"its weird how he can think: oh she's in a badmood, probably because of this this this. he just, knows shit i dont even say"

"paranormal much"

"and he's just cute and all. he couldnt even stand close to me at first,but now he can shamelessly grab my hand first" somin chuckled,

"oh wow, man"

"...yeah. why did i tell you that?" somin asked, already regretting,

"why dont you date him then? this story will end sooner if you just shot your shot"  ahreum asked, slightly annoyed at these two dating rookies,

"...whaat? i dont wanna lose a jisung, dont push me to do hasty stuff, unnie" somin ugh-ed,

"what are you implying by 'losing a jisung'?"

"if we date, and broke up. i'll lose him as a friend and as a partner, i dont want that" somin sighed,

"unnie, why do you like stew rat?"

"stuart" she corrected, chuckling at the nickname,

"taeseon sounds like he's some bad boy, but his english name makes him seem so classy and rich. it doesnt suit him at all" ahreum chuckled,

"i know right? why'd mom give him such fancy name? it doesnt fit his shrewd and messy lifestyle"

"yeah right"

"whyd you like him? what made you accept him as a boyfriend, for starters" somin asked, laying back on her tummy,

"i dont know"

"whaat? that was too quick, put some thought geez"

"no, really. you know how taeseon is all: my heart wants what it wants. right? i didnt have a clear reason too" ahreum confessed, laughing,

"well i remember being lovestruck and falling for that guy whenever he'd never let my hand go when we go out. you know i dont like crowded places-"

"since you lose your way all the fucking time? yeah"

"...yeah. dont judge me like that, you also loose your way all the fucking time"

"...well you're right, dont attack me like that, i acknowledge the weakness" somin muttered, holding onto her heart,

"then how did you guys end up this far? you're gettin married soon gurl" somin hollered,

"...i actually thought about it, and yeah dude, its crazy" ahreum laughed, reminiscing all the times they went through,

"honestly though, i felt kinda unsure with him, since he always would say: my heart wants what it wants" ahreum muttered, mocking her boyfriend,

"like, what if his heart suddenly doesnt want me anymore?"

"ow"

"yeah,ow. but then this guy brought me home, always, all the time when we go on dates, like we always end up in this house"

"do you not like it?"

"no,dude, i meant that was how i knew, ah. this guy is being serious" ahreum said, nodding to herself,
