"why didn't you tell me he had a girlfriend!" hyewon screamed to her bestfriend who was also her crush's sister, sohye. she rolled her eyes. "i don't know her. seriously, i saw her for the first time yesterday. i'm shocked as well, you know!" sohye explained.

"how can i face him after this? i obviously flirted with him eVERYTIME i went to your house."

"keep going. i hate the girl she looks like a bitch." sohye commented but soon received a hit from the taller. "that's not nice!"

"ouch! that hurts!–" sohye rubbed the spot where she got hit but stopped suddenly.

"– hyewon, you're too nice! this is why you're loosing to a bitch."

"sohye.. i'm nice and naïve but i'm not stupid. i know how to get a man if i want it." hyewon defended herself. she knows that she's an easy person and some people take advantage of her.

"oh, please... you can't even talk to mark and he's as equally awkward, nice and naïve as you."

"your lips are chapped." hyewon suddenly changed the topic. sohye knew this would happen. the taller does this all the time.

"of course it's chapped it's winter, we all have chapped lips." sohye shakes her head, judging her best friend really hard. "why are you wearing shorts? it's cold!" sohye then took off her jacket and wrapped it around her waist.

hyewon suddenly pouts her lips upon seeing her bestfriend bwing worried for her. "i'm sorry i shouted at you. i didn't mean to hurt your feelings." she hugged the shorter and rested her chin on her shoulder.

"forget it. let's go to your house and have a nice cup of hot chocolate."

"she could be just a fling anyway. my brother can't have a girlfriend without telling me."

"christmas is in three weeks." jihoon stated the obvious as if mark doesn't know that christmas season is here.

"and?"

"buy me a present you son of a bitch." jihoon threw a pillow to mark which he avoided and ended up landing on the wall and fell to the fround miserably.

mark shook his head seeing his friend's behaviour. "i'm not your santa."

"you ever realized that 'santa baby' is basically saying she wanna bang with santa."

"gross." mark squinted his eyes. "how are you and hyewon?" finally, jihoon changes the topic of the conversation.

"meh." he replied precisely. "what do you mean 'meh'? don't you text her everyday?" he asks in confusion.

"yeah.. and all she talks about is stupid doyoung."

"who's that?"

"sohye's brother."

"hyewon likes sohye's brother?"

"yeah."

it went quiet for a few seconds. the two male weren't even focusing on the tv as they kept on chitchatting. "when are you gonna make a move?" jihoon asks.

mark hugs the pillow jihoon thre a few minutes ago. "how can i? i'm an awkward lad. what can i do to impress her? tell her that she's doing a great job by changing oxygen to carbon dioxide in merely seconds?"

"woah, she can do that?"

"breathing, jihoon." mark pats the cute boy's shoulder. "she can breathe."

"oh.. aNYWAY, you should take the next step. make her your fling. and soon, she'll be your girlfriend!" jihoon exclaimed and ended his sentence with his infamous wink.

"a fling?"

"yeah.. you know when you're not her boyfriend and she's not your girlfriend but you have this thing between you guys that's more than a friend but less than a lover."

jihoon stopped to catch his breath as he said that in one breath.

"yeah, a fling. you guys should try it."

"a fling..."
