tired is what you could say you felt, but was that even the right word? ‘tired’ didn’t do enough justice to elucidate the mental and physical exhaustion you’ve been suffering from — simply just trying to survive. how long would it be before you got out of this school? would you even make it out aliv-
“hey?” dae-su waved his hand in-front of you face, snapping you out of whatever reverie state you were in. turning your head to him — realizing the expression that was plastered on his face. it was one you knew well. he was about to ask a question that was probably not the most intelligent…but you had to give it to him. he was just trying to find a way to entertain himself while your lives went to shit.
“what’s up?” you lazily smiled at him waiting to see what bizarre question he was going to pull out of his magic hat just for you.
“would you rather have toes for fingers, or fingers for toes?”
“what?!” out of all questions this definitely was not the one you were expecting, but you can’t say you’re complete surprised.
“which one would you rather have?” he was being 110% serious.
“um..neither?” you spoke out, arching one of your brows in the process to show him that you truly did not understand the method to his madness
“c'mon! you have to pick one.”
“why would i want to have toes as my hands? i wouldn’t be able to do anything, THEN if i had fingers as toes, i wouldn’t get to wear shoes. it’s a lose-lose situation.” you shrugged. dae-su knew that you would think too hard about the question instead of just giving him a straight answer, but that’s what he liked about you. you always found a way to question the simple things. even stupid questions that didn’t need to be.
“okay but imagine this, if you have fingers as toes you’d be like a monkey and pick things up with your feet.”
“why would i want monkey toes?” you questioned, laughing at the mere thought of seeing yourself with toes of a monkey while you spoke.
“like say you’re sitting down and you’re in a comfortable spot while watching tv, but then ‘oh no!’ you realize the remote somehow ended up on the floor, you just use your finger toes to grab it therefore preventing you from having to get up.” you would hate to admit but that reasoning made perfect sense in your mind, and his too.”
”okay so then what about toes for fingers?”
“honestly, i don’t really see a benefit to them. i guess maybe you could smash down bread to make a penne.”
thinking long and hard about the reply you were going to give him — realizing that maybe it would be a tiny bit cool to have fingers for toes, you gave him your final answer.
“i guess i would have fingers for toes. so then if i were to hold your hand i’d make you hold my foot.” you both at laughed at the stupid response, quickly covering your mouths to prevent making too much noise.
