groceries loaded in his hands the boy walked up the stairs towards his apartment. today, more so tonight, had been long. his wallet felt heavy of tonight’s wins as his mind was flooded with thoughts. the dark haired male couldn’t believe it had been a month since he had walked back into the apartment complex and somehow it had finally felt like home.         full in thoughts the boy didn’t realise he had already made his way to the right floor, the bags in front of him covering his view, stumbling forward, not noticing the person in front of him as he bumped against them. ❝ fuck — look out ! ❞ he groaned, groceries falling out of his bag, putting it down on the floor to pick the fallen out packages up before his eyes were met with the girl in front of him. ❝ rhea ? oh christ — shit , what uh ... what are you doing here ? ❞

somehow the door of the small apartment was left open as mino walked in, carefully knocking at the door as he peeked inside. the boy figured nicolette had left it open as she had made her way to his own apartment. ❝ noe , you here ? ❞ the younger man asked, closing the door behind him as he shuffled on his feet. as he didn’t hear a sound the boy walked further into the apartment, kicking his shoes off. ❝ nicolette’s at mine ? she said she wanted to play games, ‘n i uh ... i wonder if you were okay ? ❞ looking a little concerned as he walked over.

roman turned around, leaning against the kitchen counter, staring at the smaller girl. ❝ where did you hide the cereal ? i’ll only watch toy story with you if i can have my cereal . ❞ huffing a little, ❝ i swore last time i put it right there . ❞ pointing at a high spot in the cabinet, remembering exactly how he put it on the highest shelf to pester her, a grin lingering on his lips as he was reminded of the thought.

HYEONA : no that shit is free  HYEONA : but thanks anyways ig ? HYEONA : for yourself ?? HYEONA : hmm interesting HYEONA : i guess i could consider that HYEONA : open it .. maybe i wanna know what is inside

shuhua cocked her head to the side. his denial was futial. he could spin the narrative all he wanted but she knew this was nothing more than a defense mechanism for a guilty person. shuhua might’ve been a shopaholic but she wasn’t a naive little girl. she always monitered her money. she knew how much she had coming into the game and how much she had lost that night. there was no other explanation for why there was cash missing.  ❛❛  oh please.  when  thieves  spot  an  opprutunity  they  don’t  think.  if  anything  this  shows  just  how  desperate  you  are.  despite  winning  you  were  still  unstatisfied.  ❜❜  she flipped her hair over her shoulder. her words spilling out of her mouth like venom as the sweet aroma of her leave-in conditioner laced the air. as his hand made its way to her waist she tensed. his behavior catching shuhua off guard. she of course , wouldn’t let this show.  ❛❛  my  family  and  i  aren't  made of  money.  there's  no  excuse  to  steal.  period.  ❜❜  shuhua straigtened her back , her eyes drifting away from him.  ❛❛  surprise  me.  ❜❜

why on earth did this have to take so long? mino wondered, sighing as he looked over at her. watching the girl, he almost considered to just give it over with and handing the girl her money back, but no way was he going to admit he stole her cash. that just wasn’t him. he didn’t need someone to have proof that he was a criminal. ❝ i don’t know . you’re the one telling me . i’m no thief , baby . i only play fair game and you just happen to be shit at poker . ❞  he shrugged his shoulders, biting on his lip as he looked over her, a smirk reaching his face. ❝ no excuse to steal indeed . but how many is it you’re missing , c’mon ? who even has cash in their wallets nowadays ? ❞ tapping his fingers against her hip before dropping his hand again, walking past her, hands hiding in his pockets, ❝ you coming ? ❞ 

          ’  𝐍𝐎𝐖 𝐈 𝐊𝐍𝐎𝐖 𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐃𝐎𝐍'𝐓 𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐊 𝐈'𝐌 𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐒𝐓𝐔𝐏𝐈𝐃  .  '  the words were accompanied with the roll of an eye  ,  ‘  you do know that what you do for me is the easy way for people to repay their debt  ?  do you want me to tell you about the hard way or do you want to give me the money you’re keeping for me  ?  ’  he made sure he spoke the words carefully so mino would catch every word  .  ‘  you get your cut so you can pay your rent  ,  if you want more money then work harder and get me my money back  .  ’

❝ i really don’t have time for this bullshit , xavier . ❞ sighing as he looks at him, rolling his eye as he looked away. ❝okay ? tell me , try and impress me . just remember i don’t owe you shit . ❞ getting a little impatient, mino tapped with his feet on the floor, looking back up at the man in front of him as he was reminded of the days back in seoul. ❝ last time i checked you’re not really my boss ? stop ordering me around . ❞

          𝐂𝐀𝐑𝐍𝐈𝐕𝐀𝐋𝐒 𝐇𝐀𝐃 𝐀𝐋𝐖𝐀𝐘𝐒 𝐁𝐄𝐄𝐍 𝐀 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐏𝐋𝐄 in the bautista household  ,  carmen had grown up to adore them  –  and she did  .  everything from the lousy rides to the neon lights and the street food  .  the girl had stopped going around the time her brother had passed  ,  but roman’s offer was too good not to bite  .  ‘  no way we’re leaving  ,  i have inside information and will make sure you avoid all vom spots  .  ’  linking her arm in his the girl continued  ,  ‘  we should start with the ferris wheel  ,  if you wait past eight with that you will have to wait hours and end up in a ride smelling like puke  -  after that we should hit the cotton candy stand and go to the glow in the dark carousel on the other side of the carnival  .  that one isn’t that busy and kids aren’t allowed  ,  meaning less chance of people throwing up  .   ’

❝ from who are you receiving that information ? ❞ tilting his head out of curiosity, the boy had always struggled to hide jealousy, a hint of that now shining through. ❝ we could also just go to my place and watch a movie . didn’t you like pocahontas ? ❞ questioning, biting his lip as he looked down at her, pulling the blonde the slightest tad closer towards himself. ❝ scheduled it all out , i see . ❞ humming approvingly, looking up at the big ferris wheel, starting to guide her into the right direction. ❝ we could also still go get some of the popcorn and cotton candy and then go watch a movie at home , how appealing does that sound ? i really forgot how bad it smelled here and i hate children . ❞ whining the tiniest bit.
