"YAA MIN YOONGI!!" She shrieked.
An accident which was supposed to happen... didn't.
Two people who weren't supposed to... crossed each other's paths.
Was this magic? Time travel? A dream? Or simply a malfunction?
But more importantly, what does the...

"Yaa!" Halmoni smacked my head. "How could you say such a thing on her birthday? You rude bastard! It's already sad that her parents are not with her to.." She abruptly stopped and glanced at Jiyoon with a mortified look. Lee Jiyoon avoided talking about her family like plague. It must be a sensitive topic for her considering her situation, so we never brought that up.
"It's fine! He was just messing with me. You know how we are." She laughed awkwardly. "And you! Thank you for the gift. I'll use it well." Eyes glaring and a tight smile on her face as soon as she faced me.
"I better get changed, I don't want to wear out this beautiful outfit." She collected all her gifts and walked back to her room in the same elegance as she entered. My eyes kept following her until she disappeared.
"Why would you say something like that. You idiot!" She smacked my shoulder.
"Ouch! What? I– nevermind." I sighed. Maybe I was overthinking as usual. She was a good kid, she wouldn't lie like that. What would she even get from lying to us? We aren't even rich or something. She must not have been in her right mind after almost dying that day. Or maybe she got confused with the Korean age system. That must be it! I should probably talk to her first before drawing up conclusions of my own. There must be a reason for...
"Are you wearing my clothes?" I almost yelled. I wasn't imagining things, she WAS wearing my clothes. It was her birthday! Then why I was the one getting so many surprises?
"Yes. I gave them to her. She refused when I offered to buy her more clothes. And how long was she going to wear mine?.. they looked rediculous on her. And besides.. you only visit once in a week or two, so you two can share. Why, you got a problem with that?" Ohh.. I have a huge problem! "Are you angry? Your face is getting all red. Oh come on! You can't be that petty now."
Yes, I was so so angry.. at myself, for having a reaction like this. She was just wearing my sweatshirt that was slightly oversized for her small frame and made her look incredibly cute, so fucking cute that my heart pumped all the blood to my face. How can I find her cute? Someone I considered to be like a brother! Cute in a heart fluttering way and not as in a cute puppy kind of way.
"Just buy new clothes. You must have saved up enough by now. Maybe I should have got you some clothes instead." I hid my flustered self behind those snarky comments.
"I don't want to waste money on useless stuff."
"Clothes are useless? Then don't wear any." What the fuck was I saying?
