"I dunno mahn, they're all really pretty" I scratched my head "How am I supposed to choose one?"

Joshua rolled his eyes "Which one will she like?" He pointed at the glass box

How the hell am I supposed to know??

"I don't know, let's try a different shop?"

Joshua slapped my head "Her graduation is tomorrow! You've been planning this for weeks but you left the most important thing out?"

"I didn't leave it out, I procrastinated"
We thanked the assistant and left the jewelry store

"This is the second mall you dragged me to!"

"I know but the r-"

"Shhhhh! Look!" Joshua covered my mouth and pointed.
Hwa and Cina walked out of a clothing store, arms linked, giggling like teenagers.
I took my phone out of my pocket and called her.

"Hey babe, whatcha doing?" She sang into the phone, still unaware I could see her, the pulled her wallet out of the back pocket of her blue jeans and handed it to Cina who ran to the closest coffee shop.

"Just galavanting with Joshua, you?" I watched her from across the way, she tucked her hand in her pocket and walked forward.

"Out with Cina, probably gonna get our nails done and maybe go for a massage" she checked her cuticles.

It felt weird to follow her but it was also kinda fun to watch her
Okay, stalker.

"Can I pay for something?" I offered.

Her brows furrowed "Why would you? It's a girls' day so no"

Cina came back with two iced coffees in her hands. "Gotta go, love you bye" she cut the call and took a coffee from Cina.

"They're cute" Joshua smiled "Hwa's wearing your t-shirt" We kept a distance but watched our girls roam around and shop.

Hwa WAS wearing my t-shirt, my black t-shirt with white roses on it.

She looks better in it.

Eventually, the girls stopped at the food court. How have they not realized we've been following them?

They ordered a pizza and sat "Why don't you just ask him to move in with you?"

It felt wrong to eavesdrop on their conversation but the question Cina asked caught my ear.

"I dunno, what if he thinks I'm being forward?" Hwa opened a compact mirror and reapplied her pink lip gloss.

"You basically live together already" Cina took the gloss and mirror.

"Yeah but this will make it permanent" her voice shook.

"I think you should do it, then I can get his apartment, and Shua and I can move in" The beeper on their table went off and Hwa stood to get the pizza.

"They want to move in together?" Joshua pulled me to the side. "I mean it makes sense for you since you're about to pr-"

"Shut up" I hit his arm "I'm not in the mood for that"

We wandered off on our own again, talking about whatever problems or ideas we had. Joshua was stressing over getting a job and I- I had other things on my mind.

"Boooyyyssss" Cina screamed and ran to Joshua.

Hwa strolled over "I don't run" she fiddled with her necklace. "I see our plan worked... our moving-in convo scared you stalkers off"
She play punched my chest.
"Why were you dumbasses following us?"

You said all that on purpose??
You made me doubt my p-

I shook my head, "We were bored and you guys are amusing" I shrugged. "Cina... I need the video of Hwa and the lemons please" I smiled.

"Send it to him and I'll post your lemon face all over social media!" She protested.

"C'mon Hwa let me see the video! Which crazy baby cries for MORE lemons?"

"Technically raw lemons are just... sugar-free lemonade" Cina stated. "And I don't mind if you post my lemon face on your socials... I looked cute and still love lemons"
She took her phone out.

"Cina don't you dare!" Hwa warned, Cina grinned before sending me the video.

When my phone chimed, Hwa charged. Cina ran off giggling and screaming, Hwa chasing her through the mall.

"I THOUGHT YOU DON'T RUN?" I called out. She flipped me off and kept chasing Cina.

"I hope my girl makes it out alive... Hwa can be- scary" Joshua shuddered.

"My girl is an ange- yeah she can be scary" I laughed "Let's go, we have shit to do".

I dragged him into yet another jewelry store.
"Can't we be done for now? Or just choose one!" Joshua complained.

"No, it needs to be perfect. Hwa likes pear-shaped- that one!" I finally found it... it has to be that one. I called the assistant who took it out of the case "This is the one" The diamond shone beautifully "It's perfect"
