Strawberries & Cigarettes

Chapter 3

Copter looked at his friend, still not knowing what to say. Tee had been in a bad mood since the first class in the morning.

"So ..." he began to speak with insecurity "how was your date last night?"

Seeing that the anger in Tee's face deepened even further, Copter knew that it might have been better not to ask.

"Do you think I would be in a bad mood if it had gone well"

"Good point" Copter nodded. "But what happened? you are always so lucky with the girls"

"An idiot arrived and ruined everything" Tee growled.

"Don't tell me that girl had a boyfriend"

"No, it was ..." Tee stopped before revealing more than he  should "another idiot"

"Well, you deserve it anyway" Copter smiled proudly. "For abandoning your friends"

"Aw come on Copgi, don't tell me you're still mad because I didn't help you with your homework"

"I'm not angry" Copter sighed with a sad expression "it's just that you and P'Tae are so popular, they have many other friends, I think I'm just a little jealous"

"You are also popular Copter, only you don't realize" Tee commented.

"Do you believe?"

"Sure, everyone thinks you're very cute."

"I don't want to be cute" Copter pouted "I want to be cool as P'Tae"

Tee laughed loudly, with that attitude Copter could only be even more adorable.

"Why are you laughing?"

"Okay, I'm sorry" Tee raised his hands in surrender "And if you still have problems with your homework, I can help you now"

"It's not necessary, last night I could finish it"

"Really?" Tee asked confused, he was sure that Tae didn't go to help Copter, since he went to ruin his date.

"Yes. Kimmon helped me" Copter responded a little awkwardly remembering the events of the previous night.

"Kimmon? The guy who lives next to you?"

"Yes"

"Do you see it? I told you that you did wrong in judging it. If I help you, he shouldn't be so bad."

"I thought so too," Copter said with annoyance. "But then he was the same idiot who always teases me."

"Maybe he just tries to be your friend"

"Kimmon?" Copter laughed sarcastically "You have to be kidding. He is a fool who thinks he is better than others just because he is handsome"

Hearing no response from Tee, Copter looked at his friend who had a nervous expression.

"What's wrong?" Copter asked confused without noticing the presence of someone on his back.

"So you think I'm handsome?"

Copter turned quickly, feeling that his heart was about to come out of his mouth because of the fright that caused him to see Kimmon and Tae standing behind him.

"How long have they been here?" Copter asked with one hand on his chest, trying to calm his heart.

"Since you said I'm handsome" Kimmon smiled proudly.

"I also said you're a fool" Copter growled.

"Aw you're so shy"

"Besides P'Tae is much more handsome"
