RAIN
rain — write a fluffy drabble of our characters stuck in the rain
out of all the people in the city of busan, he never thought that he’d have to be stuck in the rain with him.
really. it made no sense. why would ricky be stuck in a rainy situation with someone he met but barely knows about? all he really knows about hyunsoo was his name, he’s from america, and that he was nice (or something like that). he thought he could’ve at least been with someone he actually knew. someone he was actually good friends with or bad enemies. not an almost complete stranger!
just his luck, huh?
but there’s nothing to be done. all that can be done is to get under the same umbrella with hyunsoo because ricky left his umbrella at home and hyunsoo was just kind enough to share his umbrella. ricky asks if the other was fine with walking him home and he didn’t really seem to mind.
as they walked in silence, the awkward atmosphere was surprisingly making the boy suffocate. because of that, he felt the absolute need to start a conversation.
“do you like dogs?” he asks the other, not waiting for his response because he was sure everyone with a heart at least liked some dogs. “i have this akita named soonshim. she’s very pretty and she’s white and fluffy. she likes eating chicken a lot.”
he takes out his phone, stopping a bit to go into his gallery to find a picture. when he does, he shows it to him. “pretty, right?” he asks. the other nods his head. “i know she is. she’s my best friend. we went through a lot together and i found her when she needed a home. she’s bigger than she was before, but she was very small. i don’t know, maybe it’s like raising a child, but seeing her grow makes my heart both warm and hurt, you know?”
there’s a reassuring hand on his back. a hand for comfort. “thank you,” he responds to the kind action. “one day, you should meet her. i don’t think she would bite you immediately.”
