⠀⠀ desperately searching for snacks, hyojeong paced back and forth between the snack aisles of the convenience store. her basket was already full with drinks, cup noodles, candies, chocolates and bags of chips. as she was about to pay, she felt another item slip in her basket and she couldn’t help but glance down in confusion, eyeing on the ice cream cone that settled at the very top. “huh?” she murmured to herself before looking back to see a rather familiar face. she remembered her from the complex but... why did she put her ice cream cone in hyojeong’s basket? was this her way of asking for the female to buy it for her? as she cleared her throat while pushing her glasses back up, she pursed her lips together behind her mask before turning her body to face the female completely. “erm, did you want me to pay it for you?” it was a stupid question and she was certain that she would receive a sarcastic response but hyojeong had to ask, instead of making an assumption. “i guess i can pay for it.” she mumbled lowly with a sigh while taking her wallet out.
