Flowers of Despair || Haruto from TREASURE

fourteen

February 7, 2022

Haruto and Eunhye have been in the middle of an hour long call, just talking about the most random stuff they could think of. It was unlikely of Haruto to make calls, he hated it actually. He prefers face-to-face interactions for casual conversations like this.

"Seriously? That's not like you." Haruto chuckled.

"I get that a lot. I don't know why people think of me that way though." Eunhye said.

"Well it's because you're a girl and girls love shopping, you basically have the money to splurge on anything you want in the world, and you're born into a royal family who would obviously spoil you with shopping trips every week."

"Woah hold up, I don't spend excessively. My parents do try spoiling me but I just try my best to not engage in it. I don't see the point of shopping for stuff I don't need."

"Don't you own any useless stuff?" Haruto continued talking to her through his Airpods while hanging his clothes inside the closet.

"Uhm... plushies?"

Haruto almost dropped the shirt he was holding after hearing her answer. "Did you just say plushies were useless?"

"Yeah, I mean, one plushie is enough to hug in bed. Having multiple plushies doesn't make sense."

"My image of you is changing, this is really weird." He chuckled. "You're not normal but I like it."

"I don't think anyone's normal, Prince Haruto." He could imagine her smiling through the phone while saying that.

"Especially if you're part of royalty," He joked around and laughed. "Speaking of royalty, I have something to ask you."

"What is it?"

"Don't you have a date to Aranya's party right?"

"Nope."

"Can I be your date?"

Eunhye fell silent through the phone but still responded. "Sure."

"Really?"

"Yeah, don't you want me to say yes?"

He chuckled. "No, I just didn't expect you to quickly agree."

"I don't think I have a reason to reject your offer anyways," She laughed. "Did you get the memo that the party is Disney themed?"

"Huh? Disney themed? Are you serious?"

"I'm not joking!" Eunhye laughed. "I'll send you the text I got from Hwayoung."

A few seconds later, he was sent a screenshot of Hwayoung and Eunhye's conversation about the Disney themed party. "What the hell, dress up as your favorite Disney character. What if someone shows up as Winnie the Pooh?" He didn't really feel like the joke was funny but Eunhye was laughing like a mad woman through the phone.

Her peculiar laugh made him laugh as well. "W-What?" He tried stopping himself from laughing.

"W-Winnie the Pooh! Hahahahaha!" She still continued laughing.

"What about it?" He chuckled.

"Maybe we should dress up as Winnie and Piglet!" She suggested.

"Woah wait no, no, no, Princess. We aren't doing that." He laughed.

"What are we gonna dress up as then?"

"Wall-E and Eve." He joked around.

"And what are you gonna do, dump some trash in the party?" Eunhye joked as well. "Let's do Snow White and a Dwarf!"
