DRIVE! (hiatus)

the race

17.

Jinan threw himself beside Hanbin, it's a bright day and he's been in the garage more than anyone, he's been preparing the civic.

"So I heard from DK you gonna down for the street racing too?" Hanbin asked Jinan while they rest after giving the sweet sunshine—DK's mustang—a check up. DK was thrilled enough that the heat he's been worrying gone and under Jinan's golden touch, his car feels as light as ever.

"Yeah, its part of the bet."

"What car are you gonna use? Another supercar from my garage?"

Jinan paused, "supercars are no good for street racing, y'know that."

"Yeah..."

"We use race car to race, dumb dumb." Jinan continued.

Hanbin scoffed.

"I was about to use the mustang, but DK said he's down for the race too... so..." Jinan sighs, "I might have to buy a new car... What do you think? Is BMW cool? Or a ford? I actually got my lashes bats for Chanwoo's Lancer evolution, but... holy shit..." he suddenly murmured.

Hanbin turned his head to see what's attracted Jinan.

A Chevrolet impala sliding through the front lawn of Bobby's garage.

"Impala..." Jinan hissed.

Hanbin unintentionally smile knowing who's behind the wheel.

"Who—" Jinan paused and saw Jennie stepped out the car, "... oh your cute friend."

Hanbin stop smiling, "shut up."

"Hey everyoooneee!!" she get into the garage bringing a big paper bag.

"Ugh, her again..." DK intentionally rolled his eyes.

"I brought fooood~" she continued.

DK stand off his wooden slider, smiling so wide, "Jennieee~~ I missed you!!"

Jennie squinting her eyes, "you rolled your eyes on me before, do you think I didn't saw it!"

DK grinning.

People gathered around the table as Jennie really brought a lot of food.

"What's good, people?" Jennie stretched a full smile.

They busy eating while Jinan keep his eyes on Jennie's car, "Hey, Jennie."

Jennie turned to Jinan, "yes?"

"The..." he pointed at her car with his chin, "...impala, is it for sale?"

Jennie sat beside Hanbin, he just finished having dinner. Jinan is downstairs with Bobby, probably talking about their bet, DK accompanying Chanwoo eating because he arrived late at the garage.

"How are you?" Jennie asked, "I heard from Chanwoo that many things happened..."

"Uhm, oh, yeah, Jinan brought me to my home here in Seoul... home I didn't knew exist." He said.

"Why don't you move there?"

"No, it's..." he paused, "too big."

"I bet your house back then was also big."

Hanbin paused, it is not an excuse, of course, "yeah... but,"

"But it wasn't so empty because you have your girlfriend around, right?"
