Connection: M/NB/F can be friends, co-worker, fan, ect. Background: Tavia’s been trying to get over her ex of five years and finds herself drinking again to numb the pain.
“Why is it that the first question anyone asks is ‘Are you okay? What’s wrong’ why can’t anyone be decent and ask how my days been. Or ask anything other than the obvious?” her words were somewhat jumbled together at how fast she’d been speaking. she grabbed for another bottle of soju, a sigh escaping her lips. “Can we go buy more snacks?”
“Well.. for one, you often have this look— the one you have on your face right now. It makes people think you’re having a bad day, and two, it’s because they’re worried about you.–” Sojin paused, noticing the other reaching for the unopened bottle of Soju, and quickly moved to pull it from her grasp, a serious expression falling over her features. “We can get more snacks, yes, but no more Soju.. I’ve been down that road and you don’t want to make a habit out of this.”
oh no. did he make her uncomfortable? that wasn’t his intention. ahh, he was just trying to strike up a conversation. be a little more honest. this is why he lets the others talk more than him. talking to other people is not easy. especially if he doesn’t know them personally.
the idol awkwardly chuckled, his hand covering most of his face for a moment. jokes are fine. he doesn’t mind them. he is just currently feeling bad if he said something to upset her. “ i prefer having a plan. ” he responded, his eyes also turn to the papers spread out. “ it helps with the creative process. ” he paused for a moment. “ though, it does have its downsides. if i have an idea, a plan, how i want something to come out. i am a bit of a perfectionist. ” he laughed at his comment about himself. obviously a bit of an understatement. now making eye contact with the female idol though she is still looking over the papers. his body language signaling that he has gotten more comfortable with her company. his arms resting on the table, crossed and propping him up as he leans on it.
“ you got a point though. people seem to fall in love with my music no matter what. it could be made with a toaster and i would be winning awards. not many idols can say that. ”
“ Ah, but that’s because there aren’t many who can do that. There’s the work you do with your group, of course, but you do just as well creating music on your own.” She nods thoughtfully to herself before glancing up from the table at him. “Like your untitled piece. I honestly think that one is your best, and I listen to it quite a lot, myself, admittedly– ah–” She cuts herself off, realizing that she’s already saying too much. “I mean– it’s already clear by now that I’m a fan..although— Seunghyun-ssi may have rivaled you quite a bit at one point, so.. ”
Between fellow idols, things are better kept a secret which explains why Jungkook is one to be kept in the dark. “Noona is engaged? Is it too late to congratulate you now?” The younger beams his boyish grin, joyous news as this one is something he wouldn’t hear everyday.
“Ah, It is a little late, but thank you. I’ve been engaged since December.” She giggled, flashing a wide grin before putting her palm to her face as if she were going to whisper something to him, speaking at a lower volume. “Don’t tell anyone though.”
Suspicious was definitely not what Miri had been shooting for, but now that she thought about it, she was being weird. Again. Thankfully, she did not have bad intentions; She was simply trying to make friends, albeit tactlessly. She was embarrassed, and quickly had to think about what she’d say next, although she knew she’d only be digging her own grave, as she always did. “Good! That’s amazing,” she nodded, as her cheeks began turning pink. “What’s your favourite type of pastry? I like melon bread– Do you think they have some at that place down the block?”
“Melon bread?,” she asked with a tilt of her head, admittedly not having heard the name before. Perhaps it was some new goodie that had been making waves with younger people lately, and she did seem young. Or, there was the chance she was a foreigner, and this was some kind of pastry that wasn’t an easy find in Korea. She would have heard of it otherwise. “I don’t think so– Is melon bread from Japan, perhaps? It might be a lot harder to locate here if that’s the case. We have a lot of French and Americanized bakeries, and goods that are served on the street, but I honestly wouldn’t know the first place to look for melon bread.”
“What do you think? Does this jacket suit me? Your style is on point so thought I’d ask your opinion!”
“Mine? Oh no, this is me not even trying, too casual. But I’d say that’s a very dressy jacket.. mm..” Sojin trailed, off, looking the other up and down to try and decide if the clothing looked alright, but she wasn’t too sure. “..I think maybe a size smaller would look better, more fitted.”
▬▬ ☾✧ After listening to the other’s words, she didn’t feel as nervous as she did before. This was what usually happened every time she got onto any new ride. She would feel nervous and scared until she got the ride over with. In the end, she always ended up enjoying the rides and going again once more afterwards. Most likely she would end up loving this one as well. She took a deep breath in and out slowly then gave a nod of her head in response to the question. Sitting down on the raft, she managed to smile before looking to her friend. “At least I’m not alone. So, I’m ready,” she said, lifting her hand up to give a thumbs up. Haerin turned away from her friend to take another deep breath in and out, trying to prepare herself for the fall down the water slide. With a firm nod of her head, the smile on her face brightened just a bit more. “Yep, I’m ready for sure now!”
With a squeal of delight, Sojin watched as the lifeguard pushed them off and away, her screams then echoing against the walls of the tube slide as they slid faster and faster down the slope. The speed causing her hair to whip against her face, which had a wide grin plastered onto it. Holding tight to their raft as it carves around twists and turns, before they finally reached the bottom with a splash. The ride was short, but so exciting, she let out a shout while the high from it all still lingered. Laughing before she turned to Haerin as they floated along towards where they would get off. “How was that?! I told you it’d be fun!”
then talk to me eonnie, what sort of things do you like to do in your spare time?
Alright, mm.. I like to eat and listen to music, but those are probably things a lot of people you’ve met like to do { ‘ chuckles.’ } I also play piano, but I haven’t been doing much of that lately. I’m sure I’ll be able to get a nice one of my own once I move someplace bigger with my– ah– fianceé.
