Wine, a bitter tasting liquid that melts on your tongue and calms nerves down after a long shift at work. A bitter tasting liquid that makes your brain-waves dance with euphoria when finally all your sorrows and worries will be drowned by the alcohol inside of it.
"Stop being a pussy and take a shower, your promotion is not that bad and i wish i had it."
Best friends, the most annoying people around you but you tolerate them because you love them.
"Lisa, it's not like i'm an agent on duty in a tiny village now. The worst crime i've encountered has been a dude stealing an old ladies purse and they chose me.. me to work at Seoul's Seodaemun Prison."
Lisa scoffs, a huff of air leaving her lips in disbelieve of what her best friend is telling her.
"Jeongguk, stop. You're a great cop and you deserve this promotion, now get your stinky ass in the shower and pack your bags, you're leaving in 4 hours."
She grabs the glass of wine from his hands and places it on the white table next to them, spilling a few drops onto the top of the wood.
"Fine, jesus you sound like my mom."
Jeongguk stands op like how a toddler would when his mom told him no after discussing expanding his bedtime.
"Thank you very much, sir."
Jeongguk rolls his eyes and walks up the stairs, his head feels lights and the room spins a little bit. Wine? Sleep deprivation? Or is it the stress he got ever since he heard that he got promoted to prison guard at SSP, yeah maybe it's the last option.
Jeongguk turns on the shower and hold his hand under the water to regulate the temperature before he steps in. The male discards his clothes when he's satisfied and closes the shower door behind him.
The soft sound of the male singing fills the bathroom, a lovely melody trails through his head when his fingers massage his scalp. Soap trails down his back and calms the tensed muscles with the warm water streaming along with it, unknotting his aching body. The male takes a deep breath and sighs softly, he'll miss his apartment and his annoying best friend.
High pitched yelling jerks him out of his thoughts, only then realizing that he has been standing under the water for 50 minutes already. The male curses under his breath and quickly steps out, wrapping a towel around his waist hastily.
"This is going to be a shitshow."
