Chapter 12
Silly BaoziThe two raced over to the arcade. Chanhee grabbed Minseok’s arm and pulled him over to the air hockey table. He chuckled.
“What’s so funny, oppa?”
“Well, I have yet to be defeated in a game of air hockey. You just picked my best game. Are you ready?” Chanhee calmly walked over to the other side and picked up the striker.
“Ready when you are!” she smirked. “I love a challenge.” Xiumin inserted the money and the game began.
Fifteen minutes and three games later, Minseok came out the winner, just like he knew he would. But his opponent put up a good fight. She pouted as he scored his winning point. “Oppa…”
“I told you. But that was a good game. Do you wanna go again?”
“No thanks! You’re too good.” She pointed to a crane game. “Are you good at that too?” They walked over to the game and she pointed to a stuffed meat bun doll. “It’s so cute!”
“Is that the one you want?” Chanhee nodded excitedly. Minseok smiled down at her. “Oppa will get it for you.” He took out the correct change for the game and put the coins in. The lights started sparkling and music played. Minseok grabbed the joystick and tried to get the plushie.
So much time had gone by and Xiumin still hadn’t gotten the plushie for Chanhee. She had told him it was okay if he gave up, but he refused. If she wanted it, he would get it for her. She had left for a moment to go to the ladies room. While she was gone, Xiumin gave the game one last try. Somehow he managed to grab the bun and drop it in the slot. He jumped up and down before pulling out the plushie. He did a little jig in success.
Baozi walked out of the arcade and stood over by the bathroom, but far away enough so that no one that he was stalking the women’s restroom. Chanhee came out a little later. She spotted him immediately and smiled. He was holding the doll up to his face. Chanhee walked over and took the doll from him.
“You finally got it! Thank you oppa! It’s so cute.” She hugged it to her chest.
“I’m glad I could get it for you.” Minseok took a peek at his watch. “We still have another half hour to kill before that movie ends. Is there anything you wanna do?” Chanhee pondered for a moment and looked around. She smiled and tugged on his arm.
“I know what I wanna do next.”
