Chapter 5
Different But TogetherThe night has grown deeper but someone suddenly woke up at an unreasonable hour to be.....HUNGRY.
Seulgi got up due to her growling stomach.
"It's 2AM.......why am I hungry...." Seulgi says as she approaches her fridge.
she saw that her fridge was empty and remembered that she didn't buy any grocery earlier.
"I'll just have to sleep this off and have a good meal tomorrow at work" Seulgi says as she pats her stomach.
She layed back down in bed, but she couldn't close her eyes, she couldn't stop thinking about food.
Seulgi got up again, wore thick coat and socks then procedeed to go out.
She wasn't scared to go out, assured that her area has 20% of crime rate.
"worst case scenario, I will get robbed. I shall only bring 20 dollars with me....it wouldn't hurt" Seulgi debates with herself but ended up bringing her whole wallet.
As Seulgi was walking the quiet streets to a 24-hour convenience store, she suddenly hear a crashing sound. Probably coming from a trash bin. She started to walk fast and just at the right time she arrives at the convenience store.
She got herself a big roll of Gimbap and a cola to pair it with. Seulgi sat comfortably inside and started to eat her meal.
From the window she saw a man walking criscross and falling like a baby on it's feet for the first time. As the person got closer, Seulgi realizes that she knew that person.
"Oh! That's Kang Joon!" She gasped out loud.
Seulgi goes outside to help Kang Joon up and sat him with her inside the convenience store.
"OHMYGod. You reek of alcohol and trash" Seulgi had a stank face on.
"I...i treeped ousside *laughs* I'm dumb" He slurred his talking.
Seulgi's POV
That must've been the crashing sound.
"Why are you outside? You're drunk!" I asked him.
"My stomach hurts..." He replied making an attempt vomit sound.
"HEY! If that man vomits inside, you're cleaning that up." The employee from the counter scolded us.
I just nodded, he is now my responsibility. I just wanted to eat! :(
"Do you want some Gimbap?" I asked but his head waved no.
"What do you want?" I asked.
He pointed at the drink section......BINGGRAE (Banana Milk).
I bought it for him and he glowed like a child getting chocolate. I kinda felt awkward since he already has a girlfriend. I wouldn't want some girl to buy a banana milk for my drunk boyfriend.
"Thank youuuu" Kang Joon says as he leans on my shoulder.
I completely froze.
[Kang Joon's Flashback]
It was never unusual for Suzy and Kang Joon to eat at a late hour.
Suzy eats her ramyeon while Kang Joon sips his banana milk.
"Jagiya, aren't you annoyed I'm always up at this time?" Kang Joon asks.
"Not at all. I like it when we're together anyway" Suzy replies.
Kang Joon rests his head on Suzy's shoulder. Both finds a sense of comfort in the moment.
[end of flashback]
What am I gonna do? He's alseep and I'm frozen here. My shoulders are starting to hurt...
"Suzy, I've missed you" Kang Joon says
at this point I'm just confused...
"Why did you have to move away though?" Kang Joon sounded so sad.
I'm assuming they've become a long distance couple. Why am I so involved in this? He can always visit her or meet halfway. It's not that hard, I thought of a solution for them. I might suggest it when he's sober.
He finally moved away from my shoulder and he rested his head on the table.
I felt bad for Kang Joon because he sounded so sad with such a little problem. Aren't both of them trying to resolve their problems?
Big word coming from my mouth. I ran away from home and asked my step sister for funding. STILL it's a different scenario.
While he was sleeping I got up to pick a few grocery. after my late night errands, I was just gonna leave Kang Joon there, but my conscience kept bothering me.
I walked out of the store....a few steps away and I went back in and sat beside Kang Joon again.
"Kang Joon, do you remember your address?" I tapped him and asked.
"Why do you keep talking down to me? I'm older than you!" He was grumpy again.
"Kang Joon OPPA, can I get your address so I can call for a taxi?" It's so weird to be friendly with him. He's been mean to me since we met.
He smiled for a bit and then told me his address...
Finally!
The taxi arrived and it's already past 3AM. Payed for his drink and his ride. This is too much errand at th
