"And she has a really nice voice too."

I nod my head, probably for the hundredth time as Minjeong starts to list a bunch of things Hanni is amazing at.

She has this sickly-sweet smile on her face and whenever she starts with a new one, she looks me dead in the eye, and I start to wonder once again how I did not see the anger flash in them last time.

"Plus, there was this one time," she says, scrunching her nose up in a supposedly cute way.

"We went out to see the fireworks, and it was so romantic because it was pure timing." She twirls her hair mockingly at me, and I continue to grin at her, almost like I didn't know what she was trying to do.

"Those all seem like great stories," I reply, chuckling a bit for added measure as I step across the backroom she led me to about an hour ago, watching as she feeds the next two chicks for the 20th time.

"And I'd love to hear more, but Yeonjun is waiting for me," I sigh, faking sadness before averting my gaze to the two chicks. "And the birds."

Minjeong nods and hands the cage over to me, winking after a second.

"Don't go breaking their hearts," she jokes, but I cringe at the way her eyes glower at me.

"Wouldn't try," I say, not bothering to wait a minute more as I dash out of the room and nearly knock over Niki as he brushes Fluffy's fur.

"F—Sorry Niki, I didn't see you," I apologize, scratching the back of Fluffy's neck as I wave goodbye at them before it's too late.

But fuck, I couldn't make it.

"Oh Minji!" Minjeong squeaks, causing me to groan and swivel on the balls of my feet to face her. She's bouncing on her toes and her hair is swishing from side to side.

"Can I tell you one last story?" she asks with a pout, fluttering her eyelashes at me.

I gulp inwardly and shrug my shoulders.

"Go ahead," I force myself to say, my emotions all over the place as she steps closer to me and pats my cheek fondly.

"Well, last Christmas—Hanni and I—"

The doorbell rings and we both turn our attention towards the sound, my lips twitching into a big smile as I see Hanni strut inside the shop with a smirk on her face.

She looks so sexy in a tight white V-neck and simple jeans. I'm about to just pounce on her when Minjeong interrupts.

"Hello babe—"

Hanni leans forward and kisses me lightly on the lips, causing giggles to erupt from my mouth as she nuzzles our noses together.

She licks my lower lip a final time and steps back.

"Hey Min, baby."

I can practically feel Minjeong's jaw on the ground.

"H-Han—Hanni," she hisses, and I wonder where her happy-go-lucky attitude just went.

She crosses her arms together and pinches Hanni's cheek, pulling her to the side as Hanni whines helplessly.

"What the hell was that?" she growls, pointing a finger at me in disgust. "Did you just kiss your mortal enemy?"

Hanni smacks her hand away and cups her cheek, scowling at the woman.

"That hurt," she snarls back, caressing her skin. "And yes, I kissed Min, but no—not my mortal enemy."
