changbin wouldn't consider himself one to be annoyed easily. he thought he was patient, welcoming, and everything in between. however, he was very annoyed with all his friends at the moment. to put it lightly: he was done. he was done with the running around they forced him to do. on a normal day, jisung would pressure him into grocery shopping. he'd open empty cabinets and sigh at them. just sigh. minho would always drop subtle hints about how the way everyone lived was a "mess." whenever someone couldn't find something, minho would answer with " if only this place wasn't such a mess." those were the things he could deal with. they were easy to resolve.

what bothered him was when his roommates complained. complained about the dumbest things that they could very well do themselves. hyunjin had whined about wanting a got7 lightstick for the past month while seungmin pouted about day6 and how he had wanted their albums so so badly. they'd complained and complained, trying to nice things for him, calling him hyung to get what they wanted.

and what did changbin do? he gave in. he decided that he would get all the shit they wanted, and that maybe he could get a small something for himself as well. probably a stuffed animal to put in his room. chan would enjoy that gift, too, since it could be added to their "roommate collection." changbin had been slightly worried about moving in with chan at first, since he was a 20 year-old man and had expected constant bashing on his plushie collection. he didn't expect chan to hold a box full of his own stuffed animals with a huge smile on his face. he had been thrilled.

changbin went to a local store that was known for having those types of things. it was the place woojin shopped during christmas or birthdays. in the store he felt quite lost. he wasn't used to buying any type of album. or a lightstick. as a matter of fact, he had zero clue where to look. he wandered around the aisles like a lost dog until a worker approached him and asked if he needed any help. he was thinking of replying snidely with something along the lines of "isn't it obvious," but he controlled himself and instead nodded.

after asking where day6's most recent album was located, he managed to find the got7 lightstick on his own. it was almost sad how proud he was of himself. he had tossed the two items into his basket with a grin and continued his stroll through the store. he found a cute pikachu he knew chan would've enjoyed. the stuffed animal was hanging by the window and almost called to him in a metaphorical sense. it was a little bit expensive to him, but he knew he'd get something out of it as well.

he grabbed the bag from the store and was patting down the shopping center's walkway. as a grocery store came into his view, he scrunched up his nose at the brightly colored girl scout signs. it was that time of the year. boxes of cookies surrounded the table. a girl with blond hair stood at the table, wearing a smile. she must've had short hair since it seemed to be tucked into the small hat on her head. changbin kept walking and paid almost no mind of the girl scout until the set up became closer.

upon further inspection, he realized no that wasn't a girl. that was a boy as a matter of fact. changbin blinked as he stared at the table. that took him for a slight loop. he didn't think people in this area were that accepting. he didn't have anything against it himself, as he wouldn't consider himself the most manly. he did have a stuffed animal collection with his roommate. he didn't have any space to judge anyone. he was intrigued and his feet were approaching the table before he could even think about it.

at the table, the boy greeted him with a huge smile. he had a beige colored uniform. it was lined with this shade of light green that brought out his hair color. he had a little scarf the same color tied around his neck as well. his eyes crinkled at the sides when the costumer approached. his white teeth were shining flawlessly. a perfect salesmen smile. it was a little bit scary (cute) in changbin's opinion. "would you like to buy some girl scout cookies?" he asked. changbin blinked again, leaning back on his heels.
