"So you didn't end up kissing him?" Nayeon asked as she sipped her water. Nayeon had come over Saturday afternoon to get the details about everything that happened with Hoseok. The girls were napping, leaving the two of you without distraction.
"No, we didn't kiss." You said softly. "I don't know why I said that it was the stupidest thing I've ever done."
"No." Nayeon said. "The stupidest thing you ever did was marry Mr. Wonderful, Weong-Bin." You both laughed at her joke. "No, but seriously, I don't think he's thinking about it as much as you are. Just drop it. There's always next time."
"Oh my God, stop." You sighed, setting your drinking down. "Hoseok and I aren't dating anymore, what we had is over now. I shouldn't have said that, and he probably thought it was really weird." You chuckled to yourself. "I wasn't the most fun date, either. All I did was a bitch and moan about my life and my divorce, while he tried to keep things upbeat with jokes and all the fun things that he did after he transferred. God, it was so awkward." Nayeon couldn't help but smile at you. "Not to mention, even if we wanted to....kiss, Min Ja had a nightmare and I had to cut it short anyway to calm her down." You continued to ramble on after taking a deep breath. "There's no way Hoseok wants to be involved with someone with two kids. He has too much going on, and he's young and-"
"Okay, stop." Nayeon said, giving you a serious look. "Don't say that until you hear it from Hoseok himself." You sighed, looking down at your drink as you traced the rim with your thumb. "I'm not saying you're wrong, because you're not. He's young and single, but so are you! You're still only 26 years old! Don't automatically give up without at least going out with him a few more times." Hearing her talk made you smile a bit, and you took another sip of your drink. "I'll even babysit if you need me too." Nayeon offered. "You shouldn't sell yourself short. You deserve to be happy just like anyone else in the world."
"Thanks, Nayeon..." you said, the both of you reaching out and gripping each other's hands. "The girls are with their dad Wednesday nights into Thursday, maybe I'll look into that."
"There you go!" Nayeon beamed. "Perfect! You have to keep me updated." With a nod, you got up to discard the now empty cup, taking Nayeon's as well.
"I don't have much else to wear, though. There's only so many times I can generate nostalgia with that romper." Nayeon's eyes sparkled.
"How about when the girls wake up, we go out and shop?" you offered. "There's a new little store that opened in the strip mall with really cute clothes, I went there with some work friends when it opened up." Thinking about it for a moment, you nodded, smiling happily.
"That sounds so fun. It's a beautiful day to take a walk." Nayeon and you smiled, excited to get some shopping time in with the girls, something that you haven't done in a while.
When the girls woke up, it took some time to calm them down from being a bit fussy, but once Nayeon mentioned a day trip to the mall, Min Ja jumped out of her bed and raced to her closet.
"Mommy, I want to wear my new pink tutu!" She begged, jumping up and down. You scooped Hyo Bin up in your arms, soothing her as she was still waking up.
"Okay, but you need some tights too." You said, reaching up into the closet and pulling out a pair of black tights with pink polka dots. Min Ja held them tightly as she searched her dresser for a shirt, pulling out a bright yellow shirt with her favorite character, Pororo, right on the front. She beamed as she held it up for you to see. "You always wear that."
"But it's my favorite, Mommy." Min Ja said.
"I can't argue with that." You said, and Min Ja cheered in delight as you gathered an outfit for Hyo Bin.
