From tiny experiences we build cathedrals.

I make hasty decisions, I rush into things sometimes, but I’ve never regretted it at all. I think if something feels right just go with it.

sleuthara           It had only a short few days since Jieun had flown into town, her small cat Jiji by her side. She had brought enough food with her to last for another day or so, but Jieun decided to stop by the store anyway, just because she knew how much Jiji could eat.  The automatic doors of the small, corner of the street grocery store closed behind Jieun as she stepped inside the warm business. She shrugged out of her jacket, draping it over her arm before jutting her head to the side, motioning for the black cat by her side to follow her. Jieun was know back home for being a bit ditsy and clumsy, so she wasn’t shocked herself when she felt herself bump into another figure, causing her to stumble back slightly.                                          ❝ Oh! I’m so sorry! ❞

Ara stared at the broken bottle of sesame oil on the ground, the contents having spilled onto the floor and splashed onto her jeans and shoes. It was a good thing that she had been heading home and could get changed soon because the pungent smell was threatening to get stuck in her nose. "It's fine," she muttered, not turning to look at the culprit right away, preferring to call for the nearest employee. "It's no big deal," she shrugged as she finally turned toward the girl, waiting for an employee to come so that she could help clean up. "I'll just, clean this up and grab another one." 

Yea- exactly! ⟮ “ he laughed  ⟯ We’re pretty close, despite how my complaints make it look. I only talk bad about him just to get on his nerves, is all. Maybe you can come by one of these days and we can watch the movie together, yea? Popcorn provided. 

"That sounds great." She agreed, index finger tapping on her bottom lip in thought, "Let me just have a slow...er week at work and we can set something up. I'll buy you guys dinner!" She raised her palms as if forfeiting something, "I'll leave the movie choice to you because I've been so out of the loop lately." 

My father had taught me to be nice first, because you can always be mean later, but once you’ve been mean to someone, they won’t believe the nice anymore. So be nice, be nice, until it’s time to stop being nice, then destroy them.

Absolutely, I still read. Some binge reading might actually do some good, now that you bring up the idea. Watching a few doesn’t sound too bad either. It just depends if I can snag the television at the right time, since my roommate sometimes hogs it for video games. 

"Are you and your roommate in a love hate relationship, because you always complain about him, but you still keep him around. Don't you?" She grinned, shaking her head slightly. "I've been meaning to go and watch 'Gone with the Wind,' because I used to be a huge Bada fan as a kid, but I haven't had the time."

⟮ “ he can’t help but laugh, grinning cheekily as he folded his arms. Willing to admit that he had been a little lazy for some time— or more  ⟯ Hey, I haven’t been wasting it intentionally. People sometimes feel less inspired to work, and with me lately that’s been the case. I’m not all just for sitting on my ass.

"Come on! that sounds like you're making up excuses." she accused with a laugh. "I'm sure you make a great couch potato, I do too if I try hard enough." She tilted her head to look up at him. "But really, I get you. Maybe watching a play will get your inspiration going, or reading one, you like reading right?"
