yeongjis fingers were interrupted by her phone vibrating with a call. the contact name made her turn red, frantically falling onto her bed and propping her phone against a water bottle on her bedside table.

joshua
"hi."

yeongji
"... hello joshy,
i didn't think you'd actually
call me,"

she said with a small smile on her face. joshua rolled his eyes playfully, thrumming his hands on his guitar.

joshua
"of course i'd call you. i miss
your stupid face."

yeongji
"STUPID????"

joshua
"IM KIDDING— YOUR
FACE IS VERY LOVELY
TO LOOK AT AND NOT
STUPID AT ALL—"

yeongji
"yes, yes, i know, joshua,
i have a very beautiful face
and it is indeed very lovely
to look at thank you very
much!"

yeongji chuckled and joshua buried his face in his hands in embarrassment.

yeongji
"sadly enough we are
not here to talk about my
beautiful face, we are here
to hear you play!!"

joshua
"we?"

yeongji
"me and miss rila
of course!"

yeongji held up her rilakumma plushie to her phone camera.

yeongji
"miss rila would love to
hear you play if you don't
mind."

joshua
"i do not! i will play for
you and miss rila all night
if you'd like!"

yeongji
"wouldn't mind if you
played for the rest of my
life honestly..."

joshua
"hm?"

yeongji
"oh, nothing! take it
away joshy dearest!"

yeongji eventually did fall asleep while joshua played guitar, clutching miss rila while muttering to herself in her sleep. sighing, joshua put away his guitar and rested his head on his hands.

joshua
"goodnight yeongji, darling.
im glad this is the last thing i
see before i go to sleep."
