"a garden to walk in and immensity to dream in—what more could he ask? a few flowers at his feet and above him the stars." — victor hugo, les misérables.
@ꕤ ⋮ ❛ y. jeonghan。 jiwon stares at jeonghan for a moment before she sighs in relief, smiling in the same manner as his. she knows that the male will only assure her further if she mentions herself still being worried as the worrywart that she is. "you're right, I'll be busy soon- hey!" she puffs her cheeks for a moment here before her arms are crossed against her chest. he was right, but she won't admit it directly. "what about you? you'll miss seeing my face too, right?" her expression is hopeful that he will say yes to it. it would make her happy to know that she won't be the only one who would be missing the other. "heh, I'll keep you busy with my time here then!" she grins while she places her elbows on the table, placing her chin on her awaiting palms. "anyway, tell me, how's your day?"
@? ⋮ ❛ p. jiwon。 her comment has a smile growing itself on jeonghan's face. "don't worry, i don't die as easy as these flowers." it's nice, to have someone remind him to take care of himself every now and then. her sentiment is always appreciated, whether she knows it or not, and despite the fact that he may act otherwise sometimes. "it's almost spring, i bet you'll get a lot more clients by then. so i suppose you're right to spend more time here before you eventually start missing my face later on." what he doesn't say is that he thinks it isn't too bad that her cheery voice and bubbly presence are filling up the silence of the shop—even though it means his nap times are disrupted more or less—and that he might miss it when she's more busy later on. he probably has gotten a little too used to her visits. "don't be. the nap was solely because i was bored. which i doubt i'd be bored now that you're here." jeonghan smiles reassuringly, nodding a little. that has always been the truth anyway.
@ꕤ ⋮ ❛ y. jeonghan。 jiwon's ears perk up at the sound of jeonghan's voice and she couldn't help but smile as her attention goes over to where he is. it made her day to see him around anyway. "you should focus more on yourself, you know?" she says softly; she knows it's a joke, yet she wants to remind him, just in case. her head shakes to a no as she continues to talk, "I'll buy something when I get a client again, so that leaves with me passing time again!" she walks towards him before plopping on the other stool. "though were you taking a nap earlier? if you were, then I'm sorry for disturbing you," she mutters before smiling sheepishly at him.
@? ⋮ ❛ p. jiwon。 jeonghan almost wonders if he should continue hiding out in the back.
he doesn't mind jiwon coming around his shop like clockwork sometimes, frequent and comfortable enough to know he wouldn't actually get mad. but still, he debates pretending he isn't around just so he could continue his little nap. it's a quiet afternoon, and he has always liked taking afternoon naps whenever he could. "of course. i spent more time on them than myself, you know." a half-hearted joke as he lazily shuffles into view, before plopping down on the stool behind a table. "please tell me you're here to buy something." he says, gazing at her and gesturing around with a hand vaguely. "or are you here to pass time again?"
jiwon's voice fills the quiet space of the flower shop once she lets herself in. luckily, there weren't any customers when she came in or else it would've been embarrassing for her. it was one of the daily things that she loved to do- visiting aka bothering jeonghan in his shop. besides, she assumes that the man himself is used to her presence after days of visiting him. "where are you? are you taking a nap again?" she mumbles quietly as she continues to look around for her friend. her eyes trail the rows of flowers on display; it makes her happy to see them thriving and growing well. after countless of visits, she couldn't help but compliment them every time. "still beautiful as ever."
