CHAPTER 005
[ OH BROTHER, JUNGHYUK ]
"ChoongJae! Stop licking all the frosting off! There's not gonna be anymore left for me!!" JungHyuk said worriedly. JungHyuk tries to get around ChoongJae and grab a frosted cupcake for himself.
"Good luck, bro. ChoongJae's arms are REALLY long, he's a really good crab." I laugh at my own joke.
Oh yeah, I completely forgot to tell you about JungHyuk. My brother...though I usually don't like to admit that. He failed grade 1 or something...so he joined me in kindergarten. Which is why we have the same crowd of friends, being in the same year of highschool does that, you know? Well the failing grade 1 thing is just what people tell me...and JungHyuk never really bothers to straighten things out for me. And honestly, failing grade 1 is really, really sad. I never even knew that it was possible. So I try not to mention it much.
For an A-class description, JungHyuk's your average dumbass. That being because he doesn't carry the asian pride and just ace math, and he probably lost his common sense somewhere along the way of failing grade 1. But from what other girls tell me, his height and looks pay up for it. But I really can't see it, and I think that's a good thing. You know, with him being my brother and all.
Okay, so he's got a gigantic purple mushroom haircut and he's really, really, FAT. And-- okay, just joking, but there's a kid in our school that looks exactly like that, cross my heart and hope to die. ANYWAYS, JungHyuk's got a pretty good-looking pile of moppy hair. It's dyed a really, really dark brown, the ones where you can only tell it's not black when it's in the sunlight. And like I said, he's tall so he's a got a long face. And he's pretty tan and he works out. And I'm not gonna tell you to what extent...cause I don't even want to establish a view on that.
Just then, Minwoo returns through the door. "Okay, I've tetris-ed my way into fitting everything into ChoongJae's trunk and mine. And can somebody just refresh me on exactly why I had to do that all by myself?"
"Uhhhh...simple! 'Cause you love me, MinWoo!" I shout out, with a gigantic smile on my face, which is obviously returned to me by MinWoo.
"Okay, well we should get going, to get good spots on the beach. Wait, where's Ferica?!" Samatha pointed out. She was playing cards with Luna and Ibellina on the coffee table in front of the TV.
"I don't know. Does she know where you live, Teresa?" ChoongJae walks out from the kitchen behind me, holding a plate covered with cupcake crumbs and frosting smothered everywhere. And following him was a starving JungHyuk.
"I don't know, ChoongJae. Maybe, just maybe, Ferica never bothered to remember where my house is after coming a gazillion times. And yesterday, she got here out of sheer luck! Amazing, no? I gotta ask her how she does that." I say, with obvious sarcasm.
"I don't care. You guys better leave, so I can go back to my sleep." butted in JungHyuk. He wasn't going with us since he got grounded for not coming home some night last week.
"Okay, how about the bunch of us go ahead in ChoongJae's car to grab a spot, and then MinWoo can stay here to wait for Ferica to arrive?" Toby suggested.
"As long as I'm in ChoongJae's car, everything's good." That was Luna. They had cleared up the table and we were all now standing in front of the main doors, all surrounding MinWoo.
"Okay, let's just go with that then. Bye, MinWoo!" I say, running out of the condo after everyone else.
"WAIT! Don't leave me here all alone with JungHyuk!!!"
I'm too lazy to reply since I'm already standing outside the elevator, but I still hear JungHyuk's reply, "HEY! What's that supposed to mean, MinWoo?!"
"AHHHHHHHHH! I LOVE YOU, REESE! This was a great idea! The PERFECT way to start summer break!" Luna screams over the wind that was blowing through her light brown hair. "I can see the beach!!!! There's so many people there already!!"
"Get back down! I don't want to get a ticket today, Nuna!" ChoongJae attempts
to shout over the wind as well. ChoongJae was the one who had volunteered to be 1 of the drivers, and the fact that he was able to get hold of the keys to his mom's porshe convertible today was a definite plus.
Toby and Sam start to pull her back down, but Nuna starts screaming some song crazily causing the car behind us to give us a honk.
I turn from the front passenger seat to look at the 3 in the back seats, faces flushed by the early summer breeze. "Okay, Nuna, if you continue doing that, we're not bringing you next time!" I warn her, a grin dancing on my lips.
"Reese, hun. You won't remember ever saying that if I kissed you on the lips right now." She had a devilish smile on her face with 1 eyebrow raised. "But then again, if I did do that, little Toby here would be disgusted. So I'll wait another day to do that." Luna winked.
Ibellina laughs as Ferica just smiles, rolling her eyes at the same time. I turn back to face the front when Nuna starts to sing to the song that was blaring on ChoongJae's radio. And as for ChoongJae, he just looks really, really scared, probably due to what Luna had just said.
