Hush [Semi-Active]

Ch. 31

"Uno!" You scream excitedly and throw down one card. Yong Bin and Jimin both groan as you laugh at them. Jimin had about nine cards total while Yong Bin had more than fourteen. The chances of you winning was in your favor and you couldn't wait to put down your last card.

"You're cheating! You have to be. There's no way in heck you couldn't get any more cards like we did." Yong Bin points his finger at you. You laughed in response and shake your head. Jimin sets down a red 5 card as he looks at you. You smirked, causing him to assume he made a mistake setting down the wrong card. Yong Bin puts down a yellow 5 card, smiling to himself. You looked at both men and give a cheeky grin, slowly setting down your card.

   Realization hits them and they both groan in frustration. Defeated three times by you. You laugh in triumph and clap your hands. Standing up and dancing in your cute stitch onesie.

   You point your finger at Yong Bin, "You have to do this!" He shakes his head no.

"No! This is rigged! I'm already two bottles of Soju in! My tolerance is not high!"

   Jimin laughs, "You have to do it. You have to do it!" He opens a bottle of Soju and hands it to Yong Bin who refused to take a sip. His limit was two bottles, if he takes this one it is end game for him. You join Jimin in laughter and take out your phone to record. The game you guys were playing was Uno but the twist is if the person sets down their last card, the other with the most cards instantly loses and has to drink Soju or some hard liquor. In this case, Yong Bin held the most cards and he lost a third time.

"Come on Yong Bin, you can do this." Jimin says, attempting to encourage the man. Yong Bin groans and shakes his head no. You begin to record yourself and point at Yong Bin.

"Hello guys, so my friend here lost a third round of Uno and he's about to drink his third bottle of Soju."

"NO! Nope!"

"You have to!" Jimin says as he hands him the Soju. Yong Bin shakes his head, refusing to drink another bottle. You laughed once more.

"It's not like you're going to have to drink it in one go. You can have a couple shots."

"Doesn't change the fact that I'll end up becoming a blabbering drunk." He retorts and gives you a displeased and pleading look. You felt bad for him but he had lost. But the amount of guilt you felt in the pit of your stomach made your smile fall. You nod your head and then point the camera at Jimin.

"Oppa, you drink it for him."

   Jimin's mischievous smile is gone within seconds as he turns his attention towards you. Brows raised high as his eyes become wide.

"What? But I didn't lose."

"Doesn't matter." You add, "Yong Bin is already flushed. Can't you see the red on his cheeks?"

   Yong Bin holds out the bottle of Soju for Jimin.

"Ji Eun," He whines. "This isn't fair."

"If you don't want to drink it for him," you tap your chin in thought. An idea comes to mind. "Then you're going to have to pay him seven thousand won."

"Mwohano?"

   You grin as another idea comes up.

"Or, you dress up in a pink maid costume and clean my apartment."

   Yong Bin begins to smile and clap his hands, you record Jimin's flabbergasted state as he blinks at you. You and Yong Bin both burst out in laughter. Jimin's face becomes red with slight anger and embarrassment.

"I will not, WILL NOT, be wearing a maid costume." Jimin points his finger at you, his voice stern. Yong Bin holds out his hand and makes a gesture for him to pay up. "Ugh. You both are unbelievable. You especially Ji Eun."

   Jimin pulls out his wallet and hands Yong Bin the money. He happily accepts the cash, putting the money in his face and humming with pleasure.

"Thank you Jimin and thank you Ji Eun." He high fives you and you end the recording with a peace sign and put your phone away. Meanwhike Jimin is sulking as he shuffles the cards.

"You're paying for dinner Ji Eun." He says nonchalantly. Then begins dealing the cards. You smiled at him, not disagreeing with it. Jimin then grabs the bottle of Soju and drinks about half of it. You and Yong Bin were shocked by the sudden bravery to drink half of it in one go.

"Take it easy." You say to him as you set down a blue 6 card. Jimin gives you an annoyed look then ignores you. Yong Bin puts down a green number 6 card. You feel the air becoming dull, taking an inward sigh as you didn't mean to annoy Jimin. The three of you play in silence. It was awkward at first but as time went on, the atmosphere gradually lightened up and Jimin was clapping his hands when he set down his last card. You and Yong Bin look at each other, both of you staring at the cards in hand.

   You had the most and Yong Bin, for once, had the least. Your shoulders slump and he dances in triumph.

"Give me that bottle of yours Oppa." You say to Jimin. He does as told and both men watch as you drink the half empty bottle in one go. You regretted it instantly but didn't care. This was your first loss for a game. There's always a first, right? You thought then threw the empty bottle into the bin. Both men blink as they sat there silently, wondering if you were angry for losing.

"What?"

"Nothing."
"Nothing." Both say in unison.

"Okay then. Start a new round." Yong Bin grabs the cards and shuffles them. You can already feel your cheeks warming up. Oh great, I'm going to get buzzed.

This is a small filler. I've been hiatus for a few weeks. I wasn't really in the mood for writing so I took a break. Hope you enjoy 😊
