Summary
It’s a little jarring, looking up at Jimin from this angle. Minjeong has always been the shorter of the two, but now, with Jimin hovering above her, she feels an overwhelming sense of reverence —like it's Minjeong’s duty to worship her. To venerate her.
Here, on her knees, Minjeong witnesses Jimin’s apotheosis.
Jimin’s lips taste like raspberry and the chemical tang of cheap vodka.
Minjeong aches.

Summary
Jimin leans in, her breath smelling of whiskey and lychee syrup, with maybe a hint of fried rice cake. "You're very, very cute, Minjeong. Like a puppy."
Minjeong’s insides twist. She forces herself to remember that this is Aeri’s friend. A very straight, very religious friend. This whole interaction is just platonic bantering, or whatever the fuck straight girls do at parties. Minjeong can’t let herself be a freak.
The first time Minjeong wonders what Jimin’s lips taste like, she’s a tad bit drunk.

Summary
On her computer screen, in bold, neon pink letters, it reads, Quiz: Are You Attracted to Women? (Girls Only), and all Jimin can think is that this is entirely Kim Minjeong’s fault.
All her fault for her bleached hair and soft gaze and squeezable cheeks and adorable dimples and red-currant lips and slim waist and ocean scent. Now, in addition to the looming threat of eternal damnation, Jimin also has to worry about her computer catching a virus from this sketchy website.
All Minjeong’s fault, indeed.
Jimin definitely doesn’t have a crush on the very smart, very gentle, very pretty, and very female Kim Minjeong. No matter what her friends have to say about it.
