31 Chapter 31: {SHOPPING PAINS pt. 2}

We get to the swimsuit shop.

"Find something." Jugyeong told me.

Let's just say I'm annoyed. So I just grabbed the first pair of extra large trunks I could find. It was pink, I really could care less what color it is.

"Let's match." she said.

She had already picked out a bikini that was black.

I went to switch the pink one with a black one. There was no black.

"There's no black." I tell her.

"Is there a 2X one?"

"You want it to come off?"

"Fine."

I grab a grey pair because it matches with the metal part in the middle of the top half of her bikini.

"This work babe?" I ask her.

I try not to sound irritated mainly just because I never thought she'd force me to buy myself swim trunks in the middle of January.

"It kinda works because I really love this bikini and it matches the metal ring in the middle at least. Come on, I want to try mine on, try yours on too."

Thankfully we were the only ones in the store besides the clerk.

We try ours on.

We come out.

"It's not bad." she said to me.

I just fell when I saw her in that swimsuit.

"Is it that bad?" she asks me while checking if I didn't have a heart attack..

"No it's too good. Like WAYYYYY too good."

"..." she was beet red.

{That's too much even for me. It's not revealing, it's elegant, mature...}

"Even you're impressed DPHM." I THINK.

{Yep.}

I get up.

The store clerk guy was staring from across the store.

"Let's just buy before it gets too weird." I say.

I point at the guy that was also mesmerized by Jugyeong's beauty and also her in that bikini.

"Perv!" she yells at him.

We get changed and buy and dip.

"He was checking you out, pisses me off."

"Him checking me out wasn't what annoyed me, it was because he was checking me out when I was with you."

"So you're not uncomfortable with other guys checking you out?"

"I'm just used to it at this point, but it pisses me off when I obviously am with my boyfriend."

"People need to believe it that's why."

"We did only walk in together."

"What to do."

"Easy, my favorite thing. PDA."

"Alright."

"Do you not enjoy it?"

"I enjoy it too much."

"Well you're gonna get a lot more of it."

{What is this conversation?}

"Another weird conversation that we have."

"I love our weird conversations though!"

"That's because you're actually quirky and I love it."

{THE SKILL IS KICKING IN!}

"The "actually" makes me happy."

"Most "quirky" girls aren't actually quirky. You really are."

"Pfffft true."

"Where to now babe?"

"A couple other places."

"W h e r e t o n o w."

"That second hand luxury store."

"What the he-"

"I have money I want to spend."

"Fine."

I forgot what it was called and she did too.

We make it there.

It's called...

Dao-jin's.

Thankfully this is a second-hand store. Because if not it would be terrifying with the original prices.

"Let's go to the street wear section." she said.

She found some nice stuff. Nothing too crazy.

Then we went to the next store. Now this was my kind of place.

It looked like a museum of collectibles.

"This place resells collectable items. Some of these are expensive but they have a good condition section which has them lower than if they were in pristine."

"You wanted to buy Muricaball cards huh "

"Yeah...."

"And Spunko pops."

"Yeah..."

"Well come on what are you waiting for, you're the one spending your money."

Everything is graded. I mean EVERYTHING is graded.

I look at their museum. They have some insane stuff. Like a Grade 9 Gem Mint Babe Truth. That goes for like multiple millions of USD.

"Look at all of these beauties." Jugyeong said.

I wonder if this is where she goes to clear her head.

"Is this your head clearing space? You look at home."

"Yeah, and I wanted share this hole-in-the-wall gallery with you."

I find it funny that they sell everything that's grade 6-7 or less. All the mint cards and old Spunkos, and other old collectables.

"Hey Jugyeong! Back again?" The dude at the desk asked he looks straight out of highschool.

"Yeah Woo-eun."

"This your friend here?"

She hugs my arm.

"Boyfriend."

The guy looked really sad, but didn't say anything. At least he wasn't gonna be a jerk about it.

I go to say hi to the guy and go for a shake, "Name's Hyun, nice to meet you Woo-eun."

"Nice to meet you." he mumbled.

I go back to Jugyeong and she looks at the 7- condition and less than 100000 won section.

"Oh my goodness, a Kyle Murrey rookie card!" Jugyeong was excited because it was pristine.

She decided to buy.

"Don't bring him again!" Woo-eun shouted.

"Did you know that he likes you." I say to Jugyeong.

"Eh, yeah. It's whatever."

"He said not to bring me again which was funny."

Then the dude came out with a baseball bat.

"Jugyeong is mine!" Woo-eun yelled.

The dude came at me with the bat. He swung it hard at me. I blocked it.

Then I came up close, I wanted to show Jugyeong that I actually WAS learning something.

I reverse powerbombed that fool onto the concrete.

I grabbed his bat and just pointed it at him.

"Bruh what the hell, you acting like you're 12. Scat." I say.

The dude was scared.

"Take the bat! Leave! Don't come back!"

"Is he-"

"He's slow. Not mentally ill, just slow." Jugyeong said.

"Is that why you didn't care?" I reply.

"Yeah."

"The dude was pretty swole, I dunno why he didn't just punch me."

"Remember, he's slow."

"Oh, yeah."

"Hey at least you learned something in class. It looked super weird, but it was effective. Teach me it!"

"Okay later."
