"are we really cousins?" I asked

"what?"

"you heard me,"

"yes....yes we are," sicheng nodded

"well this time, we aren't,"

"I don't get it,"

"just go with the flow,"

I didn't want to pretend to be his girl or something, because we're related. and of course, i'm doing this because I want to.

I really want to.

"think of me as your best best best best best bestest best friend," I told the boy

"we could be more than that, y'know,"

"huh?"

"like um..." he fell silent for a bit "ultra mega best friends,"

"oh sure! anything as long as we're super close to each other!" I replied "I just want it to be just you and me for this whole stay in Zhejiang,"

"why so?"

"because like someone else, I want to spend quality time together with someone opposite of my gender!"

"that's kinda cute," he chuckled "but why me?"

"because we fit together," I smiled and grabbed his arm "let's go have fun!!"

winwin and I went to lots of places where I felt nothing but joy. it was really dun to spend the whole day with him. of course, at some times, I would see soonyoung with kei.

but it doesn't matter! I have someone else!

like, what the hell!? kei was wearing the shirt I gave soonyoung last week!!! WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN

no, no. i'm not mad

i'm just frustrated

"winwin," I called

"yeah?"

"if you have a girlfriend and then you see her with another boy...would you freak out?" I asked

"how am I supposed to know if I never got a girlfriend?" he chuckled

"holy smokes, are you serious?"

"yes. and I will never court a girl,"

"because girls will court you instead?"

"aw no," he shook his head "I'm destined for someone else,"

"oh!" I squealed and immediately started to tease him "yiiee who's the 'unlucky' girl you're gonna be wiiith?"

"nah, no, stooop,"

"any clue?"

"uh uh,"

"pretty please?" I tugged his sleeve

"okay fine," he sighed "only one clue. deal?"

"yes!"

"she's in wenzhou right now," he chuckled, making me squeal once more. I shook his shoulders and kept on jumping

"I wanna meet her, I wanna meet her!!!" I excitedly told him "i'm going to tell her lots of embarrassing things about you!!"

"okayyy calm down, lady, geez!" he laughed "you'll know who she is....one day...when we get back to korea,"

"why in korea?"

"shush. i'm not going to give you another clue. actually, she's really fun to be with," he smiled beautifully as he spoke "but i'm pretty sure she's going to be quite mad and shocked because I keep lying to her,"

"eyy, winwin has a bad side huh?" I teased him as I pinched his cheeks "where did bad boy sicheng come from, huh?"

"ha, i'm not a bad boy," he chuckled

"whatever you say, pooh bear,"

we walked around places. random, but always not too far from kei and soonyoung. you see, maybe they're just hanging out as friends.....but

bOI

HELLO!??? SOONYOUNG KNOWS THAT I'M WITH SONG FRICKIN SICHENG IN WENZHOU SO WHY DAFUQ WOULD HE GO TAKE KEI TO THE SAME PLACE?

and only kei!?

I grabbed winwin's arm and dragged him to the arcades, where the two went. we hastened to the crane game thingy where I saw an adorable winnie the pooh stuffed toy!!!

"winnieeee!!!" I squealed, catching sicheng's attention. I excitedly pointed at the stuffed bear and told him "look! look! it's you!! get this for meee!!!"

"cute!" he reacted "don't be happy because I was referring to the stuffed animals inside,"

"you jerk!" I pinched his forearm "play it!"

"okay okay chill! i'm not sure if i'll be able to get it for you because it's quite large,"

"just try and try!!!" I ordered "I want it!!"

"okay!!"

the boy dropped a coin inside the slot of the machine and fixed his hands on the joystick, and on the "grab" button.

he was concentrating on the crane and making sure if it was right enough to catch the stuffed toy.

on the other hand, I kept cheering his name out loud.

unfortunately, he failed.

"you're such a disappointment!" I jokingly whined and playfully hit him

"hey ouch okay! why don't you try so you'll know the difficulty?" he questioned

"well fine! stand back, loser!!"

I stood in front of the gigantic machine and started to play

"ha ha, that's not how you control it!"

"I hate you so much, just teach me!"

the boy stopped behind me and held both of my hands to control them himself. gawd, his hands felt much softer than mine!

he carefully moved the stick to control the crane and stop it on top of the stuffed bear.

"there you go, grab it!!!!" he ordered. I slammed the button and immediately closed my eyes for a bit.

when I peeked, I started to squeal and jump endlessly.

"I got it, I got it!!" I told him and grabbed the huge fluffy bear

"you look adorable," he chuckled

"it's so huggable!!!!" I told him as I tightly embraced the stuffed animal "I love it!!"

"of course you do," he replied and puffed his cheeks cutely "are you satisfied now?"

"i'll name it winwin the pooh bwahaha!"

"oh my. why?"

"because I got tired of winnie the pooh," I told him and stuck my tongue out "and you can't do anything about it!"

"okay okay i give up, cutie,"

"cutie!???"

"we're not cousins for today, right?" he flashed a grin at me

"woah! I almost forgot!" I freaked out "good thing you remembered!"

before we could even leave the place, someone else unexpectedly caught my wrist

"minseul!" soonyoung called. a smile was plastered on his lips and he looked quite surprised

I frowned on purpose and made it look like I was disappointed to see him

".....what?"

"I've been looking for you!"

"oh i'm sorry," I removed his hand from my wrist "i'm spending quality time together with sicheng at the moment. please try again later. bye,"
