“Oh, you’re right. What if they see me being poor and just spite me and put a few thousand Won in there?” He got excited at the small possibility that could happen. It was just a little hope to hold onto. “I guess I can get it checked out, but I don’t have anything until next week or something to get it fixed, so I’m in no rush. I only use it to make calls and sns. I don’t really talk to anyone.”

“Most people call something unique or interesting in a certain tone and then it can be heard as something negative.” He shrugged, knowing she meant it in a positive way in the first place, but it was something that could get her thinking or cause some sort of reaction to get out of her. That was his calling from the get go. He just wanted to see what kind of reactions he can force out of people. “Looking way too deep in this, noona.” He grinned while keeping his voice softer than usual. “I’m thinking of changing it, but I’m not sure.”

“Me either..” Seungho was the curious type, but only from a distance. Even though the screen was clear on his phone, there was an occasional line that shot across his screen at random moments. “Do you think I need to go and get this fixed, or am I getting hacked?” He was going to act a bit exaggerating to add to the humor of the situation to make it less serious. “they’re going to steal all the negative Won I owe my bank.. It’s going to make me double negative. “

“Yeah.. I mean.” He had to pause while looking over the ground for a few moments. “I just don’t want to disappoint anyone and make up for my training. The company has put a lot of money forward to train me, and with me having to pay it all back.. I just don’t want to be a failure.” Seungho couldn’t help but to get a little down while thinking about it. “So I just gotta do what I can and hopefully make a break through!”

“Why would she be the one taking me out with it! Yah, don’t put that hate on me. I’m just saying that if you want to get a little, like tiny bit wild tonight, just act like you’re good to go with an ahjussi that could be your father. The daddy kink is running wild in the club scene, don’t you think? American’s are doing it!” Of course, Seungho was completely joking and nudged her slightly back to signal it. “Nah, I’ll be your body guard so she doesn’t really have to worry about anything too much. Just be sure if I do get a little too drunk, to make sure I don’t go home with any noonas. Save them from me.” He had a little humor to boast with his looks, but he quickly shoved it away. “If anything, just make sure I can walk in a straight line.”

“Interesting in like, good, or bad?” He was anxious to know. Seungho was oddly self confident in his name, but it was all a charade. He wanted to know what people thought about it. Opinions wouldn’t make him change it, but it would show what kind of reaction he would get from the public. “Be honest, Noona! You can’t really hurt my feelings – too much.”

“Okay, so this is what’s going to happen.” Seungho was on his knees while drawing with a stick in the sand. Somewhat childish, but that’s how he enjoyed things. Made him feel official and in the army. His voice even went bolstering like a general (somewhat.) “We need to get some plastic wrap and duck tape. A lot of it. Probably three or so rolls. Then before anyone gets there, we need to make sure the doors are covered, and the floor is lathered with baby oil. Don’t forget to put the pads underneath your shoes so you don’t go slipping everywhere.” He didn’t want her to get hurt, or have it backfire on the both of them. Mainly him, however. His back wouldn’t be able to take the hit, and he’d be on the ground rolling around.  “Do you think you can get the stuff in about an hour or so and meet back here before everyone comes in for practice?”

Seungho slipped on his jacket with a soft wince. The soreness tore through his upper back from all the training and weight lifting from the day before. He would have thought he was going to be getting used to doing it for years straight, but his body still wanted to go against him. Even when in pain, he didn’t want to show it to make people worry. That was a huge no go in his book. Taking a deep breath, he quickly zipped up the light jacket with a soft sigh exhaling once the deed was done. By this time, he exited the hall to see Kana getting ready as well.  “Maybe the Ahjussi’s will recognize you this time and hit on you to get us free drinks. I’ll make sure they won’t get too far. Or maybe Acchan will be giving them hawkeyes from the background and ready to take them out with a straw.”
