My Fake Boyfriend

The five year old Aeri sat on the swing in the playground, her six year old sister Taehee sitting on the one next to her as they watched their mother from afar, who was seated on a bench. The two girls licked on their ice-cream while waiting for their friends to arrive.

'Can I have a bite from that?' A small boney girl about Taehee's age asked them with a cheerful smile.

'Sorry Areum, but you could have gotten your own ice-cream if you would have been here earlier.' Taehee replied, eating the last of her ice-cream.

'What about you Aeri?' Areum asked, 'Can I have a bite from yours?'

'Well, it's strawberry flavoured and you are allergic to those so, do as you wish.' The girl answered.

Cha Areum looked around, hoping to see other familiar faces.

'Where are the others?' She asked.

'Namjoon, Taehyung and Jimin will come together.' Taehee answered.

'Jiyeon is sick' Aeri added.

Just then, someone took away the brunette haired girl's ice-cream out of her hand as a way to make his presence noticed.

'Yah! Jimin! give it back!' Aeri shouted, trying to snatch it away but her friend had an ally.

'Thanks RiRi for saving some ice-cream for us.' Taehyung said as he and Jimin held the ice-cream cone up high while Aeri did her best to get it back.

Park Jimin, had been friends with Taehee and Aeri since Aeri and Jimin were 2 years old. They grew up in the same neighbourhood and learned everything, from walking to holding a pencil together. Growing up this way embarked sibling like feeling between the three.

When Kim Taehyung and his elder brother, Kim Namjoon moved to the town, Jimin became best friends with Taehyung because of their same age, while Namjoon, even though was close to his brother and his best friend, preferred talking to Areum and Taehee.

'Come on you two give her her ice-cream back.' They heard Namjoon's voice say as the boy himself appeared next to Areum. The two youngsters ignored the command of their elder and continued to tease their friend, tossing the ice-cream from one hand to other till it eventually fell to the ground.

'Look what you did.' Aeri said to both of them.

'It is not my fault Jimin is so bad at catching.' Taehyung complained.

'Hey, I did not do anything.' Jimin protested.

The three of them went on to bicker over whose fault it was while the other watched them with annoyance.

'We are not here to fight, okay?' Areum said to them but her voice was not heard over the shoutings of three five year olds.

Taehee sighed and moved towards them, 'Shut up or I am telling our parents.'

'Don't' They said in union.

'Finally, you three agreed on the same thing.' Namjoon commented.
