"hey,"
"hi!!"
"i'm mingyu by the way."
"pretty name! my name is chaeyoung!"
"suits you,"
"i'm blushing stop."
he laughs over the phone
"do you always work this late?"
"rarely. it's just one of those nights."
"aww that sucks,"
"god i'm hungry." mingyu's stomach makes a sound which makes chaeyoung laugh
"i can hear. we should go out! i'm hungry too actually."
"at three am chaeyoung?"
"yeah!"
"i can't."
"why not? are you like incredibly famous or something?"
he hesitates. should he tell her?
"no it's just-"
"we can eat at my place? if that works better. come on! i want to treat someone who's up as late as me!"
"where's your place at?"
•••
her doorbell rings which wakes her up more than she already is. she opens it with excitement and looks at mingyu in awe
"i brought food since i owe you too."
she smiles widely and grabs his food. "what'd you bring?"
"i don't know, my mang—i just random picked. i said give me your best!"
she shrugs and puts the food on the table. he sits down at her table and she later joins bringing chopsticks and water.
"is water ok?" she offers
"water is exactly what i need."
they open the food and are blessed with the spell of steaming hot food.
"woah!" she gasps
"that's a lot of food," he mumbles
"let's dig in!"
•••
"so tell my about yourself mr kim."
they both sit on the couch and watch tv as they rub their full stomachs
"well, what's there to know?"
"tell me. how are you?"
"i'm a wreck," he covers his face "you have soju?"
she gets up and grabs her bottle with two shot glasses
"drink up mr kim and tell me your problems."
he takes a shot and put it on her table. he feels comfortable with chaeyoung. she's pretty and he knows that she won't judge him.
"i guess i just feel misunderstood most of the time. i want to become this great singer but im not sure if i can do that. i'm not a cool guy that i've always wanted to be,"
"become that great singer dude no doubts! you can do anything you put your mind too!" she tells him. the sudden confession threw her off but she understood what he meant
"well what about you ms lee. anything on your mind?"
she pours herself a shot of soju and drinks it. she puts it down and pours another shot. mingyu lets out a small laugh as she finishes it
"i think i have depression."
his eyes go wide and his face changes from the smiling boy he was before.
"but i'm not sure you can diagnose yourself can you?"
"what makes you think you have depression?"
"cause i've been feeling depressed. ever since i got cheated on i've been feeling like shit. nothing cheers me up anymore, well, until i met you and everyone else."
"w-what was his name?"
"her name was soyeon," her hands make a fist "look i don't really like talking about her cause she honestly made my life a living hell after i found out what she did to me so please let us change the subject."
he looked at her in silence
"you want to watch a movie?" she asks picking up their mess
"s-sure,"
•••
mingyu opens his eye slightly. did i fall asleep?
