Hyunjin's POV

"What flavor do you want?"

"Chocolate! Or maybe vanilla? Or strawberry?"

"Come on! Just choose!"

"I can't!"

"Let's do rock, paper, scissors."

"But we're only two."

"Come here. Hello, can you play rock, paper, scissors with us?"

"Bro, what the f-"

"Hey! This boy is an innocent bean! Don't say those words in front of him!"

"Okay...?"

"Now, play rock, paper, scissors. I'm chocolate; Seungmin, you're vanilla; I don't know your name, but you'll be strawberry."

We played and Seungmin lost. Then, me and the other guy played, and I won.

"One chocolate and one vanilla, please." I said.

"Sure. In a cup or cone?"

"Which one do you want?"

"A cone!"

"One cone and one cup."

"Okay. Please, wait a minute."

"Sure."

The guy came back with our ice creams.

I took them and gave the cone one to Seungmin.

"Thank you. Now, pay!"

"Hey, wait-ugh! Here's the money. Have a good day."

"You too, sir."

I went to the bench Seungmin was sitting on in the park.

"Why did you run away?" I asked Seungmin.

"So, I didn't have to pay."

"Really?"

"Yeah, why?"

I facepalmed.

"What?" He asked confusedly.

"Nothing. Now, eat up."

"Okay...Hey, Hyunjin?"

"Wait! How old are you?"

"I'm 17, why?"

"You're what?!"

"17...?"

'How the f-'

"How about you?"

"18."

"Ohh, okay. Anyways, I wanted to ask if I can get a spoon of your ice cream?"

"No! Never!"

"Why?~"

'Oh, my god. Don't make that face!'

"Because I don't want to share!"

"I'll share mine."

"But you have a cone."

"So?"

"No!~"

"Why?~"

"Seungmin, stop."

"What?"

"Stop acting like a baby."

'Don't pout like that!'

"Please?~"

I groaned.

"Fine!"

"Thank you!"

"Yeah, yeah. Whatever. But only one spoon."

"Only one spoon."

"Hey! That's too big! You literally took more than half of my ice cream in one spoon!"

"Here, you can share with me."

"Uhh..."

"What? You don't want it?"

"No, I do! Give me."

"I'm not giving it to you! You'll have to eat it while I hold it."

"Okay, fine!"

He moved the ice cream towards my lips.

I opened my mouth, looking at the ice cream.

I was about to take a bite, but he suddenly pulled it away.

"Hey! Don't do that!"

He laughed.

"Stop laughing!"

"Okay, okay. Here."

This time, I held the cone with my hands; to be exact, it was his hands that I held since he was holding the ice cream cone.

"Hey! You took a really big one!"

"Well, you did, too!"

"That's different! I was hungry."

"As you said, you were hungry."

"But that is so unfair!"

"Does it look like I care?"

"Yes, it does!"

"Really? From where?"

"Your expression is telling something you aren't saying out loud."

"Huh?"

"Never mind. Can you tell me how long we've been out for?"

"Half an hour or so."

"Oh, my god! I have to get home!"

"Hey, calm down. Relax."

"Calm down? Relax? What does that mean? I don't have it in my dictionary for this kind of situation. I have to run!!"

"Wait for me!"
