STRAWBERRIES AND CIGARETTES || PARK JIHOON

🍓 NINETEEN 🚬

The group had gathered at a local cafe, and in a momentary lapse of judgment, they decided to send Jihoon and Yeonjun to order. As the boys returned with one coffee each, they both placed them in front of Yn simultaneously.

Suji and Junkyu exchanged amused glances, while Seungmin rolled his eyes at the obvious display of possessiveness from both boys. Yn, on the other hand, looked somewhat flustered by the situation.

The atmosphere at the table was thick with tension as Jihoon and Yeonjun both placed the coffee cups down in front of Yn.
Yn could feel the weight of their gazes on her as the two boys stood on either side of her, each silently claiming their territory.

Junkyu and Seungmin, both amused by the unfolding scene, quickly grabbed one of the cups each, sipping the warm beverage they'd stolen.

Both Yeonjun and Jihoon immediately protested, claiming that the coffees were meant for Yn. "Hey, those were for her!" they both exclaimed simultaneously, only to realize they had spoken in unison.
"Don't copy me!" they protested again, their voices overlapping in another synchronistic moment.

Suji, Seungmin, and Junkyu couldn't help but burst into laughter as the two boys argued and repeated themselves in unison.
Yn could feel her cheeks burning with embarrassment, desperately trying to maintain her usual composed appearance.

Jihoon and Yeonjun, still seated on either side of Yn, continued to glare at each other, their competitive natures still evident. However, every time they turned their gaze towards her, their expressions softened, and they couldn't help but smile at her.

Yn, caught in the middle of their silent game of one-upmanship, felt both amused and exasperated by their antics. She couldn't help but wonder how long this would go on.

Jihoon leaned towards Yn and asked, "Do you need a pastry?" His tone was sincere, trying to win her favor with the offer.
Yeonjun couldn't resist butting in, "Do you need a milkshake?" he said, not wanting to be outdone by Jihoon. His voice was laced with a hint of competitiveness, wanting to one-up the other boy.

Suji, Junkyu, and Seungmin were struggling to contain their laughter, finding the situation increasingly comical. They exchanged amused looks as they watched the two boys compete for Yn's attention.

Yn glanced between Jihoon and Yeonjun, her cheeks growing redder and redder as their offers of pastry and milkshake reached her ears. She was torn between wanting to escape the situation and wanting to laugh at the ridiculous display of possessiveness.

Yn finally spoke up, her voice slightly strained due to the awkwardness of the situation. "I'll just have water," she replied, trying to sound casual and composed.

Jihoon and Yeonjun momentarily stopped their competitive offerings and turned their attention back to Yn, both slightly taken aback by her unexpected choice. They exchanged a brief glance before nodding and signaling the waiter to bring a glass of water for her.

Jihoon eagerly took the glass of water and held it up to her lips, his voice gentle as he offered help. "Let me help you," he said, and when she finished drinking, he carefully lowered the glass.

Just as he set the glass down, Yeonjun rushed forward with a kerchief, reaching towards Yn's mouth. "Here, let me wipe your mouth," he said, gently dabbing at the corners of her lips.

Suji, Junkyu, and Seungmin were stunned into silence by the unexpected scene unfolding before them. They had never witnessed such direct and bold displays of affection from these two boys before.
