✭ GROCERY | "are you dumb?? let's just pick the one mom usually drinks!"

your mother forced you and your older brother, niki, to go grocery shopping together in seoul, hoping a quick errand would magically improve your chaotic sibling relationship. to make matters worse, it's pouring rain outside, and you are already in a terrible mood. you are stuck pushing the cart while he is in charge of grabbing the items off the shelves. not even halfway through the trip, the inevitable bickering starts over a simple note on the shopping list: 'coffee.' niki grumbles in annoyance, pointing at a random box just to get the trip over with. when you facepalm and call him out for not picking the brand your mom actually drinks, he rolls his eyes defensively, muttering that all the boxes look exactly the same to him anyway.
