Tears begin to well up in my eyes as I looked at him with a crappy attempt at puppy dog eyes.

Yongjoon shook his head in amusement.  "I can't believe you're upset over that, Joo-Eun.  It's just a key chain."

My bottom lip trembled as I glanced over at him.  

"My grandpa gave it to me before he died, you jerk.  It's all I have from him!"  I cried out, feeling the dam of tears start to burst from my eyes.

Yongjoon immediately looked ashamed and just nodded.  "Sorry." he mumbled.

I just sniffled and nodded back.  "It's okay.  It's not your fault you're so inconsiderate.  You were born stupid, that's all."  I mumbled back, causing him to fold his arms and shoot me a look that meant 'I take it back then'. 

Max and Alex came forward and each one patted me on the head like a dog.  "It's okay, Joo-Eun.  I'm sure he didn't mean it.  If he had known it meant so much to you, he wouldn't have thrown it away."  Max tried to comfort me.

Alex nodded, looking sympathetically at me.  "Don't cry anymore, Joo-Eun.  You're ugly enough as it is."

I jabbed him in the ribs with my elbow.

"I mean, I'm sure we could re-trace your steps and find it." he gasped, rubbing his side with a grimace.

I sadly nodded.  "Okie dokie."  I softly mumbled under my breath, knowing there was a slim chance I would be re-united with Binky.

The guy seemed to have taken pity on me because before I knew it, he fished out a pen from out of his back pocket.  He put it into his mouth to take off the cap and grabbed my hand.

I was too upset to really care what he was doing and just let him scribble on my arm while I sniffled away my boogies.

He finally let go of my arm and put the cap back on his pen.  He tucked it back into his pocket before flashing me a mysterious smile.  

"Catch you later." he said, walking off with Yongjoon.

"Jin. 123-45678."  Alex slowly read what was on my arm.

"Why did he write that for?"  Max naively asked, also glancing down on my arm.

I looked down at the writing with wide eyes.  "Whoa.  My first phone number."  I happily breathed out.

I've never had a guy's phone number before.  Unless you count knowing Max's and Alex's and of course Joe's business, home, cell and fax number. Muahaha.

Yeah, sure I was pissed off that he lost my key chain but getting his name and phone number makes up for a bit.  

Who am I kidding.  It makes up for it completely!  And then some!

What?!  

You'd expect me to play hard to get and view him as butt ugly that deserves to be severely neutered and die just because he lost one of the most precious things I possess?  Naw, you're thinking drama cliche again.  I'm a normal girl, remember?  With the usual bucketful of hormones, random bursts of PMS and whatnot.  

Alex snorted while Max slapped his forehead at my newest crush of the moment.  "All that unloading Joe made us do pooped me out.  Let's go eat, Joo-Eun.  I'm starving."  Alex announced, already walking ahead of us.

Max walked alongside of me, already deeply engrossed in his newly acquired magazine while I carefully pulled my sleeve over my arm, trying not to ruin the pretty writing.  

Jin.  My Jin.  Mrs. Jin. 

Muahaha getting delusional already.   

"You're always hungry."  I retorted, snapping out of my crazy thoughts.

"At least I don't gain weight from it." he breezily threw over his shoulder at me, his huge butt waving back and forth as he walked ahead.

I grabbed Max's magazine out of his hands and much to his protest, threw it at Alex's big butt.  "Wanna bet, Butt-zilla?"  I threw back.
