While I was in the supermarket, someone stood outside, playing with the owner's dog. It was the first time I saw someone playing with DongYi. The boy stroked DongYi and gave him something that looked like bread.
While I was looking at them, I met eyes with the boy for a second. I quickly looked away and went out the store, my bread and meat safely inside my jacket.
Did he see me? Who is he? Ah, crap, he probably saw me! I tried so hard to hide this!
"Ah, Taehyung is here! What are you doing? Didn't you want to come play with DongYi?"
I jumped at the sound of the supermarket owner's voice. The boy from earlier lifted his head and met my eyes again.
Crap. He saw me. There's no way I'll get out of this now. They know I stole.
Since I'd already been caught, I walked out the alleyway and up to them.
"Who are you?" I asked the boy.
"Who am I?" He said. He gave me a confused look, as if he didn't know how to answer that.
"Why are you playing with DongYi?" I asked him instead.
"What?" Again. He looked at me, confused.
"My dad says when he gets enough money, we're going to buy an big house. Then I'll be able to get a dog! And I plan to take DongYi, so don't even think of taking him!" I said.
The boy nodded.
"That sounds nice."
"Are you poor? Can you also not look after a dog of your own now?"
"Money?" He said, looking at me. "No, I just can't look after a dog right now."
"Ask your parents then!" I said. "My mom says fathers are always good to nag to, they're easier to persuade!"
He nodded and petted DongYi.
"That does sound nice," he said again, softly.
"So who are you?" I asked. "What's your name, Hyung?"
"Me? I'm Kim SeokJin."
