Sat 5 Jan (2:39pm)
Hi! We’re back!

(2:41)
Usually I expect you more in the morning.

(2:43)
I have jetlag. I’ve been awake for more than 24 hours.

(2:44)
How are you not dead yet?

(2:46)
That is an excellent question that I do not have an answer to.
(2:47)
I guess it’s because I’ve been running on coffee.

(2:50)
How come you didn’t quickly go to sleep when you got home?

(2:52)
I had work the day I got home. You know, training some new recruits and making sure that the kiddies get their treatments.

(2:54)
I’m gonna stop texting you and you better get some sleep. You need it for the next day.

(2:55)
Yes mother.

Sun 6 Jan (5:14pm)
So I was thinking that you confess your love to Yongguk already.

(5:15)
Where did that come from?

(5:18)
I’m right and you know it.

(5:19)
Sure.

(5:21)
I have a plan on how this will work.

(5:23)
No.

(5:25)
Why not?

(5:28)
The last time we went with one of your plans, it ended with me being late for my finals and me almost not passing.

(5:30)
How was I supposed to know coffee did nothing for you.

(5:31)
I’m also counting that one time where you lit me on fire.

(5:33)
Okay, that one was an accident on my part, but you should really consider this idea.

(5:34)
If it doesn’t cause me physical harm in any way, shape, or form, then I’m all ears.

(5:36)
Perfect! I’ll tell you once you come home.

(5:38)
I’m gonna regret this. I just know it.

Tues 8 Jan (7:02am)
What if lions yodeled? I mean, you can hear a lion’s roar from 8 kilometers away, so just imagine hearing a faint yodeling in the middle of the African savannah.

(7:03)
Are you okay?
(7:04)
You’re a little later that I would have thought.

(7:06)
My supervisor changed my hours. It’s now from 12am to 7am.

(7:08)
Is that good or…?

(7:11)
That means you get to sleep in a little later than normal. When I’m going home, you get woken up a little around 7.

(7:13)
It gets me more sleep and doesn’t bug Himchan since he doesn’t wake up until at least 7 to start his job.

(7:15)
Doesn’t he wake you?

(7:16)
He and I work in separate fields. He works at a local clothing company while I work as a local cell phone company.

(7:19)
Sounds like hell.

(7:21)
It’s not as bad as I have thought, but it still works.

(7:23)
Let’s all hope.
(7:24)
What did you do for Christmas?

(7:26)
That’s sudden and abrupt.

(7:27)
Answer the question.

(7:29)
It wasn’t that interesting. I only saw my family.

(7:31)
So? It’s still a Christmas with someone.

(7:34)
Well, my nieces and nephew from my older sister kept pestering me whether or not I have a girlfriend.
 (7:36)
I think they team up with my nephew from my brother because they all kept pestering me on that.

(7:38)
I know I’m supposed to be supportive and everything, but that’s really funny.

(7:41)
I’m sure.
(7:42)
What about you? What did you do for Christmas?

(7:44)
Well, I and my eight siblings sat around and told each other about what’s going on through our lives, then ate Christmas food, which had a lot of Mexican dishes, opened gifts, played board games, and was bullied by our nieces and nephews.

(7:46)
That sounds like a comfortable and cozy family gathering.

(7:49)
When we play board games, though, it gets really intense. I remember one year where my siblings and I were playing Pictionary and I remember eldest brother got punched in the nose by my sister’s girlfriend.

(7:51)
Like I said, comfortable and cozy Christmas.
(7:52)
But for me and Himchan, we had all of our friends gather around and gave each other gifts through Secret Santa.

(7:54)
That sounds like a lot of fun.

(7:55)
It actually really is.

(7:57)
I’m gonna go and sleep. Talk to you some other time.

(7:58)
Have fun sleeping!

Thurs 10 Jan (9:41pm)
I have a plan!

(9:43)
I’m gonna regret asking this, but what plan are you talking about?

(9:45)
I think it’s time for you two to finally meet.

(9:46)
No.

(9:48)
You didn’t even hear the actual plan.

(9:51)
I know it’s gonna get me in trouble, so no.

(9:53)
Please! It’s a good plan!

(9:55)
Fine. What is it?

(9:56)
Incoming call
“Really? A phone call?”

“I can’t really explain my plan through texts now, can I?”

“Tell me your plan or else I’m hanging up.”

“Fine, fine, fine. So, this plan has to do with you meeting Josie.”

“I’m hanging up now.”

“Wait! Don’t you dare hang up on me, Bbang!”

“Fine. Go on.”

“So, I was thinking of a place where you two could finally meet.”

“Which is?”

“The local art gallery across the street from where you work.”

“No.”

“Come on! It’s high time you two meet already.”

“Why do you care so much? The last relationship I had, you kept ing about how much you hate my current girlfriend.”

“I called her many names because they were true. This one, however, I like because she’s sweet and kind and she gives me free food when I ask for it. Also, the last girlfriend you had was a huge and cheated on you with her co-worker. Not only that, but she didn’t make you smile the way that Josie made you smile.”

“Anything else?”

“She makes you laugh through texts. Texts, Yongguk! Where else can you find a girl like that? She likes the same weird that you like and the two of you seem to hit it off instantly.”

“If I go with your plan, I don’t want to hear any ing from you, do you understand?”

“I understand completely.”

“You’re telling me the full plan once you get home.”

“Understood. I’ll see you when I get home.”

Fri 11 Jan (2:01am)
The mission is underway.

(2:03)
Excellent. Josie has also accepted the plan. Though I did not tell her about Yongguk’s plan.

(2:05)
Neither did I. Now all we need to do is pick a date.

(2:07)
Meet me at my apartment and we’ll discuss it then.

(2:08)
Is this a subtle way of saying that you want me?

(2:10)
Don’t get your hopes up.

(2:12)
I can and I shall!

Sun 12 Jan (7:04am)
What if car horns are just cars’ g-spots and their horns are their screams of pleasure?

(7:06)
This is what happens when you don’t get enough sleep.

(7:07)
I’ve said weird before. This is not new to me.

(7:09)
I can see that.
(7:10)
Hey, when do you have your next day off?

(7:12)
That’s a bit sudden.
(7:13)
I’m usually off on Fridays, and Saturdays.

(7:16)
Perfect. I’m going to need you to go to a local art museum.

(7:18)
When?

(7:20)
The 18th sounds about right.

(7:22)
Do I need to bring anything?

(7:23)
Just yourself. At 5:30pm.

(7:25)
So specific, Mr. Bang.

(7:26)
I always am, Ms. Valencia Sierra.
(7:27)
Why do you guys have two last names?

(7:29)
It’s a very long and complicated story.

(7:31)
Well, remember to meet me at the local art museum in Seoul at 5:30.

(7:33)
I’ll be sure to be there. I’ll text you later.

(7:34)
Right back at you.

Mon 14 Jan (3:49pm)
Well she accepted his offer.

(3:51)
Speaking of accepting offers.

(3:52)
No.

(3:54)
Aw, come on! One date.

(3:55)
If I accept, will you stop?

(3:57)
Yep! I’ll pick you up tomorrow?

(3:59)
Sure. You know where I live.

Wed 16 Jan (4:01pm)
Since when did you become so close to Himchan?

(4:03)
It’s movie time. Stop texting me and go away.

(4:05)
Uh… didn’t you tell me a few days ago that you would never go on a date with Himchan?

(4:06)
If you keep bothering me, I will find your secret stash and give it all away.

(4:09)
Alright fine, miss bossy pants.
(8:02pm)
So my sister is with your roommate right now.

(8:03)
So that’s why it’s been extremely quiet lately.

(8:06)
You noticed it, too?

(8:08)
Our roommates a really loud.

(8:09)
Yes they are. Well, in conversation they are. I don’t wanna know what they do when we’re not there.

(8:11)
That is neither here nor there.

(8:13)
I’ll see you on Friday, then?

(8:14)
Sure. I’ll meet you then.

Fri 18 Jan (5:19pm)
, I’m nervous.

(5:20)
Will you calm down?

(5:22)
You’re not the one who’s waiting for someone you’ve texted since June.
(5:23)
, he’s calling me.

(5:25)
ing answer the phone.

(5:28)
Incoming call
“Hello?”

“Are you already there?”

“Kind of? I guess? I mean, I’m staring at artwork around me.”

“That means you are there.”

“Okay, I am. Why did you call?”

“That way I can pinpoint who and where you are.”

“Excuse me?”

“I’m gonna do this, before I change my mind.”

“What are you talking about?”

“You’re going to have to trust me when I do this, alright.”

“What are you… do I hear music?”

“Just follow the sound of the music.”

“…”

“You’re speechless, aren’t you?”

“How did you know I like that song?”

“It might have come up in conversations a few times.”

“But where are you?”

“I’m still trying to find you. Since you already found your present number one, it’s time to find present number two.”

“Did you plan all of this?”

“Kind of? I had help.”

“Himchan and Blair”

“Pretty much.”

“Well, I see pretty colorful artwork. Why are there people standing in a line? Wait… is that Jongup? And Junhong? Yongguk, why are your friends here?”

“Well, you found present number two.”

“Well, what’s three?”

“Wait and see.”

“Turn around?”

“Please do as the sign says.”

“Wait, Yongguk, what…”

“Hi Josie.”

Sat 19 Jan (1:07pm)
So how did it go?

(1:09)
I’m not telling you .

(1:11)
Is this payback from the time you walked in on me and Blair?

(1:13)
Yes, but that’s besides the point.

(1:14)
Please! I deserve to know! Tell me everything!

(1:16)
Fine. We met, we talked, we kissed, and we made plans to go see a movie.

(1:19)
Wait, you two kissed?!

(1:20)
I gotta go. I got a date with someone that’s not you.

(1:22)
Well you, too, Yongguk.

(3:31pm)
Alright, spill. Tell me everything!

(3:32)
The grass is green and the sky is a pretty blue.

(3:34)
Okay, you point out the obvious when you’re extremely happy. How did it go?

(3:35)
It was… magical.

(3:37)
!!!!!
(3:38)
Tell me everything now!

(3:41)
Sorry, I have to go. I have a movie date with Yongguk. We missed our usual Sunday Movie Marathon and he’s making it up to me.

(3:43)
When you get home, you’re telling me everything!

(3:46)
Sure. Bye.

Sun 20 Jan (4:13pm)
Well, it worked. My sister is happier than I would have thought.

(4:15)
Tell me about it. I just found out that the two kissed.

(4:16)
They what?

(4:18)
Yeah. Yongguk said that they met, they talked, they kissed, and then made plans.

(4:19)
I was not given this information.

(4:21)
Well, now you do.

(4:24)
Well… now what?

(4:26)
They opened up a new restaurant a few blocks down that we can go to.

(4:28)
I’ll be ready in 20 minutes.

A/N: It is complete! It's done. Now, for the extras I'm doing, they're possibly going on a separate story that's not this. I'm still deciding. Also, I have a christmas gift for all of you. Depending on whether or not I'm busy, I'll probably upload it either on the 24th or the 25th. Well, I hope you enjoy and enjoy! Sorry if the ending is too fast and too rushed. I tried.
