i walked towards the convenience store skipping lightly. i was wearing a dark red coat, that wrapped around my inner-clothes, which may or may not have been a mini-skirt and a crop top.

oops

i walked towards the convenience store's door, and wrapped my fingers around it letting the coldness of the handle settle in.
my throat was currently burning for more alcohol, i wasn't an alcoholic but i liked the feeling of the alcohol, dripping down covering all sides of the throat and burning like coal under a pot. then when the burning settles, a few shots of vodka would do well.

❝hey seungmin. back for more-❞

chan made a few drinking gestures with his right hand, smiling widely at me.

❝ yes. but i was wondering if you had any cigarettes or- ❞

❝ oh... i didn't know you smoked. ❞

i giggled.

❝ not for me, for my friend ❞

❝ oh sure, hold up i'll take them ❞

chan owned a convenience store a few blocks away from my place, it was a small, humble store but sold almost everything you needed.

i wandered around the shop, looking at all those sweet snacks and things i could probably buy back.

maybe i'll get this....

i picked up a packet of strawberry milk and nodded silently. roaming freely around the store, i probably bought too much food for a night, but it was fine. i always liked the idea of eating at home. it made me feel like i was the only one i had to care for. not caring about the world along with it.

❝ so. how's things going? ❞
chan asked.

❝ if you're asking about your cousin, it's going great. felix found a new boyfriend. hope they'll get along well.. as for jaemin, he's doing fine, told me he wants to move in with jeno. so he's probably shifting next month, depends though.
then there's jisung. which, is still struggling with his job, he needs sleep but really can't because of his, ya' know insomnia, and- ❞

❝ one, why do you know that much when the only place you frequent often is my store, two, i'm asking about you dumb ass.❞
chan flicked my forehead as i winced, smiling goofily.

❝ ok.... i'm doing ok. ❞
i sighed.

❝ ok, is that it? ❞

❝ yeah. i haven't been doing much lately.❞

❝who says so? i thought you've been talking to me. ❞

a voice i knew very well popped up behind me.

❝ jesus fucking christ, hyunjin, what the fuck, bitch you, holy fucking god damn it please don't do tha- ❞

hyunjin placed his fingers over my lips, they were really cold and although they were it brought warmth to my body.

❝ hey chan. i'll bring my boy home, ok? ❞

chan waved and smiled cheesily, winking in the process.
