my character [yeonmi] will be hyped up on coffee and pester yours.
hwiyoung finds himself questioning if he really likes women at all, the thought at the forefront of his mind as he eyes a girl in question from his seat on the couch, his brows knit together while his lips tilt into the slightest of frowns. it’s not that he doesn’t enjoy his time with yeonmi, their meetings were just complicated to say the least. the blonde couldn’t remember how exactly he’d bumped into her in the first place, nor how he’d been wrapped so quickly around the younger’s much richer finger. he runs a hand through his hair at the thought, quickly messing it up and blinking before he fully focuses on the girl in front of him who’d been ranting about her instagram much longer than he cared to listen.
“mm, yeah you’re right, they are a bunch of idiots for not liking your pictures.” this time when he frowns, he’s doing it to play along, shaking his head as though he can’t believe her photos aren’t swarming with likes. honestly, he was a bit surprised she wasn’t more popular given her social status and the way she clothed herself as though she were draping herself in money. hwiyoung still couldn’t wrap his head around how easy it was for the younger to throw money around, greedily lining his own pockets when she offered to a certain extent. he didn’t really feel comfortable accepting gifts from her, not wanting to give her the wrong idea, nor did he want to become indebted to her in anyway.
though, it was much too late for that, but he didn’t see that yet. he was one step behind in her game. while he was adjusting his pawns, she’d already reached checkmate. perhaps it was the fact he couldn’t see past her spoiled nature to see just how much she resembled himself while somehow managing to be his polar opposite all the same. she was an enigma, and maybe that was why he hung around her besides the chance to play as a rich kid for once in his life.
after speaking he pulls out his own phone and double taps on her photo, waiting for her smile at the notification. his own instagram only held four photos so far, made a few days prior by her request. one was a blurry mirror photo where he held his fingers in a peace sign, the caption something about chicken nuggets. of course, she’d bought them for him, but he hadn’t thought to mention that part. the next photo was of hyemi, again blurry, and taken from across the room. she wasn’t happy about it, but hwiyoung had found it hilarious and refused to delete it despite her threats. the other two were random photos he’d taken around the city, and he made the decision to snap another while she kept talking. it was of his shoes, a pair he’d managed to buy thanks to yeonmi’s money. he almost grimaces at the thought, but posts it nonetheless, a caption a single purple heart.
she’s still talking, something about shoes now, and he wonders how long it will take her to notice he’s posted. probably not long, considering the younger was always glued to her phone, but he’d wonder what she say nonetheless.<
“hey, yeonmi, instead of buying shoes why don’t we go get dinner instead? if we go somewhere cheap, i’ll buy. i have enough for two small meals.” hwiyoung stands and grins, gesturing towards the door with his thumb. “it’d be more fun than sitting around all day. after we can go to the park or something. plus, it might chill you out a little, you’re bouncing off the walls right now and maybe you’ll even find a cute boy to fawn over.” he waggles his brows a little at the end, only teasing, and lets out a small laugh. “up to you!”
