“Hi Lee Know! Did you eat yet?” “No, not yet.” Then he saw the goody bag full of snacks I bought for him. “YES! I KNEW IT.” He grins, heart eyes. “Since I’m driving, I have to keep my hands clean. I know you’ll help feed me some, right? I’m starving.” I give him the look. “REEEALLY?” But feed him anyway. Over the years, this had become a habit. SCENE CUT: Shopping for gifts… “Don’t peek! This one’s for you!” He yells, shoving my face the other way. “HEY! Stop shoving!” I complain, and shove back. “I’m going out. Don’t follow me. Text me when you’re done.” I banter back as I head for the door. After a while, I get his call: “Hello? Are you the one that is making my stomach cry? I’m looking for the person responsible. I think I may miss you but my stomach is too noisy so I can’t tell.” Haha, he’s so random. “That was a bit DRAMATIC. Yes, I’m done. I’ll head back.” “OKAY! Meet you in the car out front. I know a place nearby.” He replied excitedly. SCENE CUT: Food. “Yah… Look at this ramyun.” He takes out his phone for food pics. Suddenly grabbing me by the shoulders, he yells “SMILE!” in my face. So we happily capture moments of our day together. Any TMI you want to share about the Christmas party?” LK asks, after we’ve taken selfies and got down to the business of eating. “NOSY, NOSY, NOSY!” I grin while shaking my head disapprovingly. “Sorry, I can’t tell you anything. Party is in a few weeks, you’ll just have to wait and see. I Am ALL READY.” I glance and see him pout - - “NO. No pouting, no whining.” I jab him in the ribs as he tackles back laughing. As if I’m going to tell him anything… There’s clearly something he’s not telling me… I take a moment to reflect on our fun at the beach… Double standards. I think internally, with a knowing grin. He’s definitely hiding something… “Fine, fine, don’t tell me anything. I can wait.” He assures. Stretching loudly, “WAH.. So good. I think I ate too fast. Want to go for a walk first so we can digest some of this food?” My confident grin turns into a full-blown blush… I melted at his invitation to continue spending time alone together, and was lost for words… “I think I heard you say yes.” And with that LK proceeds to march out the door. Coming to… “HEY! I didn’t even get a chance to answer!” I realise that even my legs had turned to jelly! I scramble to get up quickly and catch up with him! “No need to hear your answer. I know you too well. I know exactly what you’re thinking.” (GULP). I look at him horrified while he just smiles smugly and pats me on the head. As we continue to walk, I remember the bill! “AH, no need to pay. I did it already. Let’s go!” He’s such a thoughtful guy…I sigh in admiration… I’m sure by now my heart eyes are as big as my head… After walking a while… “OWWW!” I complain when I feel a sharp jab in my side. “I was SAYING… Dessert or coffee?” LK scowls pretending to inspect me. Blushing uncontrollably now, I shove his face away. “I AM FINE! I was double checking I had everything for the party. Sorry, got distracted.” “YOU WERE IGNORING ME!” He yells and runs ahead. “HEY!!!!!” I yell, jogging to catch up. We order a sharing dessert: lemon gelato with toasted coconut flakes AND coconut cream, finished with crunchy lemon sugar coated. Yum. “Wow… This looks so good!” LK says with wide eyes. I chuckle. Seeing his familiar expression puts me back at ease. I seem to be in the habit of daydreaming this afternoon(?!) Can you blame me?… If he knows what I’m thinking anyway, he’s probably oblivious to my space out, and we can just carry on as “normal.” “Did you still want us to bring a random gift to the party?” He asks. Yes, let’s stick with this subject, I think to myself. “Of course, the goofier, the better!” I pull random silly expressions to emphasise the point. He mirrors me, of course. We take it in turns to make the silliest faces and then I grab his face - - “STOP! My face hurts.” I laugh out loud cos he looks like a fish - YESSS! I finally got my own back for when he made ME look like a fish back in the car at our beach trip. 1-1. I shove him back towards the dessert, still laughing. He gives me the side-eye and rapidly finishes it off so I can’t get any. “HEY!!!” Okay, so it’s 2-1. But whose counting. Eventually, we both make it back to the car with full bellies and lots of memories from the day together. He drops me off at my place. Staring at me silently - I wonder what he’s waiting for?… I raise an eye brow in confusion… He raises an eye brow back. I raise the other, and he does the same. “YOU are such a WEIRDO!” I laugh, pushing him back in the car. “It’s late. Sleep, and sleep well.” He laughs, yells bye and flashes a cheesy grin before I’m treated to one third of Danceracha dancing his way merrily back to the car. “WHAT am I going to do about this guy?” I mutter to myself, smiling. TBC…
Oh wow, thank you Angela for playing and thank you Lisa for typing! What I can't get over is how you managed to choose all the options that fit Lee Know so well! All the shoving and bantering..that wasn't in all the options and yet you got them so often and all the clowning and teasing...it feels so real! I'm amazed! I also really appreciate and love the ad libs e.g. the keeping score hilarious! And you got the fish face reference again! I mean...that's just so well laid out and stitched together. Honestly, this was a work of art.😁😀😎🥇🏆
Chapter 13, 'Shopping': I get in the car. "Did you eat yet, Hyunjin?" Smiling sadly with a pouty face, he replies: "No, not yet." And continues to stare at me with pleading eyes 🥺 "STOP looking at me like that! How did I know?" Smiling, I produce a container full of snacks, not forgetting Hyunjin's faves 🍗🥜🧀🍏🍓🍇🍊🍌✨️ "YAH! Look at all the yummy food, and all that delicious fruit! Mmmm... Johaa, johaa, johaaa!" 👀😋😄 "I KNEW IT. YOU SPOIL ME!" He said as he did a little dance in his seat before helping himself to the goodies. "Mmmm!" Time skip: Shopping all day, time moves quickly. We laughed and helped each other with gift ideas, colours and styles. Later... "I think you should go over there," Hyunjin suggests pointing in the other direction 😎👉 "I can see that half smile you're trying to hide... You're up to something!" I accuse teasingly. "Here let me help you. It's this way .." He puts his arm around my back and proceeds to guide me. We walk a few stumbling steps together. When I resist by walking too slow, he tries the tactic of kicking me towards the other end of the store. "WOW. SUBTLE." I quip back. "Haha, don't worry. Your secret is safe, Mr. Hwang. Catch you in the next store. Ding me when you're done." 🫡😉😁😄🚪 Later, I get his call: "Hello? Are you the one that is making my stomach cry? I'm looking for the person responsible. I think I may miss you but my stomach is too noisy so I can't tell." ("What?... He may miss me?..." I think internally, and blush for a moment at the thought). "배고파!..." 😩😩😩 Hyunjin continues to cry dramatically down the phone. I snap back into the present, laughing at the facial expressions I imagine he's pulling. He's so funny when he whines 😂🤣🤭🥰 "Yes, I'll head back." "OKAY!" He replied excitedly. "Meet you in the car. I know a place nearby" 🙂😋😊 Time skip: "Yah, look at this ramyun." He says, taking his phone out for food pics. (I usually do the same, but he gets them from every angle too sooo...) 📸🍜📸🍜📸🍜 "Send them to me later, okay?" I smile, enjoying his enthusiasm over the little joys of life. Grabbing me by the shoulders, he suddenly put his face close to mine and yells, "SMILE!" for a food selfie pic. Well, at least now I know what my friends feel like when I'M in "selfie-mode!" 😁😁🥰🥰📸 We continue eating. "Christmas party TMI?" Hyunjin asks innocently slurping the last of his ramyun 🍜 "Party? What PARTY? AM I invited?" I cackle when he gives me the bombastic side-eye 😒 "Don't worry." I say, playfully bopping my fingertip on the end of his nose which surprised him 😶 "I got it ALL covered and no TMI." 🤫😊🙂 I smile, and keep my eyes down as I loop arms with him. I feel a little nervous at such a bold move on my part. But it's been feeling more comfortable to be "in his space" the more time we've spent together. I lean closer... "You just have to show up that day." 🙂🥹 We pause a moment... Smiling and staring... Then, I break it -- "Wait and see! Only a few weeks away!" I smile swaying back and forth, tugging him along 😄😄 "Fine. Don't tell me anything -- I can wait..." 🙂🙂... "Do you wanna go walk off this food?" He asks. "Sure. Otherwise I might fall asleep in the car again... 😄 like I did last time, hehe-heh..." I scratch my head and grin sheepishly as the memories flood back... (Wow, my new found confidence wore off quick! 😳🫣) Hyunjin pretends to bop me on the head to wake me, and I pretend to defend myself. 😴🫷😮🤣🤣 Hyunjin always knows how to make me feel more at ease 🥲🥰 As we walk, my mind wanders... "I was saying..." I feel a sharp jab on my side. "OWWW!" I yelp. "I was SAYING, do you wanna get dessert?.. Or coffee?.." 💭🍨☕️ He scrunches his face, scowling as he pretends to inspect me 🤨🧐🔍Blushing uncontrollably, I shove his face away. (What was it I said about Hyunjin knowing how to put me at ease? 😅🤭🫣💓) "I AM FINE! I was just making sure I had everything for the party. I just got distracted." "YOU WERE IGNORING ME!" 😫😫😫 Hyunjin yells, running ahead of me 🏃♂️ "HEY!!!!" I yell, jogging to catch up. ("I could never ignore you..." I whisper under my breath... 🥺🏃♀️) Once there, we get our own drinks and a sharing dessert: plain cheesecake with strawberry sauce, fresh strawberries AND chocolate sauce, topped with 2 crunch chocolate wafer sticks. "Mmmm!" We chuckle together as we both make yummy noises in unison 🍓🍰🍫😋😋😄😄🥰🥰 "Wow! The food is so good! Company is so good! Life is so good!" 🍨👀👫✨️💝💖 (Haha, he's distracted by the little things 🤭 THAT is so good 🥲 Likely he won't think much of my momentary space out, and he puts me back at ease again 🥰👍). "Do you still want us to bring a random gift to the party?" He asks. "Of course, the goofier the better!" I make a funny face to emphasise the point 🤪 He laughs and mirrors me. We both take it in turns making a silly face until I grab his face 🤪🤪😝😝🥸🥸😋😋🤣🤣😜😜😲😲🤓🤓🤪🤪😠 "STOP. My face hurts," and I shove him back towards the dessert. He gives me the side-eye and rapidly finishes the bowl so I can't get any 😒🍨🥄🥄🥄🍽😁 "HEY!!" 😯😠😒 Eventually, at the car, after such a fun day, he drops me off at my place. Hyunjin stares at me silently. I stare back with one eyebrow raised. He does it back 🤨🤨 I raise the other. He does the same ☺️☺️ "Haha, you still playing this game?!" 🤣😂😊 "YOU are such a WEIRDO, haha!" I push him back towards the car. "Get going. It's late and I dont want you to be tired tomorrow." He laughs and yawns. Yells bye, and flashes a cheesy grin, all before dancing his way back to the car. 🤣😂🥱😊👋😁🥰🚘🚶♂️🕺 "What am I going to do about this guy?" I mutter to myself, smiling. 😂💗🥰💁♀️ TBC...
OMGGGGGG, LISA!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR taking the time to type out your story. I have to tell you, I read it at least twice before I responded. It was soo good and I'm not saying that to toot my own horn but what I love is how you inserted your own flair, the little jokes, nudges, gestures...it makes the entire story come to life! I sit here grinning like I'm watching my fav rom com and rooting for the main character! It's just tooo adorable and seemingly so real. Truly, no pressure on the guys to be a certain way but my hope is that they'd be this carefree with their trusted friends and have fun with their inner circle. I digress! Seriously, thank you for putting a giant grin on my face - that was some stellar story telling! I just hope anyone else who's playing this game is doing the same even if they're not typing it out. I'm fully aware that this is fiction but it's so sweet and as I continue to progress the story, it'll always stay true to OT8 with all the guys in a positive light! I can't stop gushing! 🎬🤘🏆🥇🎖️🏅😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
@everythingelse_underthesun Hi Eve, so glad you loved it! 😀 Bit of a longer chapter, thanks for reading back my comment 😊 Had so much fun and absolutely laughed out loud at the bit where you said he mirrors Y/N until she grabs his face and says, "STOP. My face hurts." 🤣🤣🤣 Comedic timing was perfect 👌🏆🥇🌟👏 I feel I wrecked the timing a bit in that section and others cos I interjected with lots of my own gestures this time, but maybe with some re-working I can get the timing and my emoji's, etc to flow a little better. I'm defo sure others are watching and playing along! 💯 There was already a "like" when I got here AND a "like" after I played. And my Mum's not watched it yet so there's two other people that ain't us probably playing along, and it only went up yesterday, haha! 👍👍 I'm sure everyone's imagining with their own bias and the little gestures they might do. We love OT8 😊🥰 As for me, this is one of my fave chapters again 😂 You're right, it seemed so real! I feel like I really had a lot of fun, and a genuinely memorable day, even though it's all make-believe 🥹🌈✨️💝💖 I had a great time! Thank you❣️🙌🫶🥰
You did NOT wreck the timing at all. I thought your adlib additions were brilliant! Did you spend a lot of time thinking of them or were they pretty spontaneous? LOL, glad you liked the mirror part - that was not part of the original writing. Half way in, the idea hits me and so I put it in. 😁🤘🤭Awww...I'm glad you liked this chapter. It felt like a really good rom com movie come to life! Thank YOU! (LOL, I realize we could probably say thank you back and forth all day.) 😸😸
Oh HEY! I never thought of it like that! The view count fluctuates from chapter to chapter so I couldn't quite get a read. I figure eventually someone will want to read it. I just have fun making these little stories and putting my own little ideas out there. Thanks for putting that into perspective for me! I really appreciate it. 🤗🙌😸☺️
