Description "Are they still coming?" Hyung-mi asked, her jaw agape as she heard the sound of slurping on the other end.

"Ayup," the fox chuckled as he drug in another food cart, this one with more than twenty bowls of dark noodles slathered in black sauce and shrimp. They shook, having been stacked on top of one another. He had kept the cart and, after leaving another note instucting the visitors to leave their gifts on the trolley, waited only ten minutes before it was already loaded again.

But he still couldn't catch sight of any of them as they were too quick and he was getting slower by the hour. Thus, he wasn't sure if there were multiple people coming by and leaving him noodles or if there was only one lonely soul that was building up his luck capital.

Either way, he was cashing in. Maybe he should see if all those desperate visitors would leave him other things as well. He would talk to Hyung-mi about it in a bit.

But first... He eyed the cart and licked his lips, his stomach already growling...


An hour later, after another few visits, Chi-seong laid immobilized on the floor, the result of a long, long meal. He still had his earpiece in and he could hear the rabbit on the other end laughing hysterically.

"They're still coming?" Hyung-mi snickered, "God, how desperate are these people? Surely they could just go to a club or something. Hell, online wouldn't be so hard."

"And this..." the fox grumbled as slurped down another noodle, "This is... only Valentine's Day... There's still White Day... and the other days between now and Black Day..."

"That's right," she exclaimed, "I didn't realize it. Do you think they'll come tomorrow too? That wouldn't happen, would it?"

"Urp... Don't know... But I think I could guess on why they're doing it now..."

"Guess?"

"Well," he groaned as he shifted into a sitting position, "I think it's like a deadline to them. Maybe they want to meet somebody before Black Day comes. Maybe they think that if they don't find a boyfriend or a girlfriend, they'll be single for the rest of the year."

"That sounds too far-fetched, Foxy."

"So? This situation is too weird to think those guys are rational. So what's wrong with what I said?"

"Because a single man can hook up with a girlfriend at any other time of the year. You would have to be utterly cowradly or clumsy to leave the dating scene after only two months."

"But what if they are?" Chi-seong asked, "What if these are the kinds of bozos that go to the local fortune-teller everyday to learn their future? Or those girls that make decisions based what their horoscopes dictated this month."

"Or which constellation is up in the sky," Hyung-mi said glumly. The fox stopped talking then. Maybe she was one of those people, those mystic-lovers. He didn't know, but he didn't want to tease her.

"Anyway," he shrugged and looked down at his bulging body, "God, I've gotten big..."

"I can hear shaking below me," the rabbit smiled, "That you, Foxy?"

"Hope I don't go through the floor," Chi-seong sighed as he heard another knock on the door.



My least favorite out of the series, though I did like practicing with a new perspective. adopted him. More later.

Enjoy. ^-^
