Squishy’s back, yay! For some reason, the drinks Squishy prepares always have an added sweetness in them. Did he have some kind of magic ingredient? Or was it just because I knew that he was the one who prepared them?
And I must be getting bolder by the day. What was I thinking when I gave that (witty) reply and initiated that (sweet) subtle skinship? Well, at least he reacted in a good way (I think).
“Hey, you weren’t here last Friday.”
“Yeah, I fell sick, but I’m here now! So, Oreo Cappuccino?”
“Yep. You know, the Oreo Cappuccino you prepare is still the best, the ones prepared by others taste a little different.” I mentally did a face-palm when those words left my mouth.
You didn't have to be so direct, Jihyun!
“Really? Haha what can I say? I’m the best.”
I scrunched up my nose as I gave a shrug. I couldn't deny that fact.
“A little birdy told me that someone was looking for me last week.” He said in the midst of dumping the ingredients into the blender.
“No I wasn't.” I gave a nervous laugh.
“I never said it was you.”
I thought back to his statement. It’s true, he didn't mention that it was me, which basically meant I jumped straight into his trap.
“I mean uh, who was it?” I quickly added, although I knew it wouldn't change the fact that I already exposed myself.
“I don't know, because the little birdy only told me that it was a girl from the school nearby.”
Playing this game huh?
“Well I guess the little birdy should’ve been more specific, eh?”
“I have a few guesses on my list anyway, so I can easily figure it out myself.”
“Oh really? Happy figuring it out then.” I grabbed his hand, turned it, and placed the money on his palm before scooting off with my drink.
