World of the Dead (30)

"That looks good!" Gayoon exclaimed, pulling Minjung towards a window where a mannequin was displayed wearing a pink flannel shirt and white leggings. "It's so cute!"

"It's pink," Minjung groaned.

"It's a pretty color!" Gayoon claimed. Minjung grimaced at the color and then glanced at Gayoon.

"You like pink?" she asked in a sullen tone. "I thought a ghost girl like you would prefer to like black or darker colors."

"I like all cute stuff!" Gayoon said, feeling affronted. "And what's with the dry humor?"

"I was being dead serious."

Gayoon shook her head, not sure if Minjung was serious or not. She pouted and pulled Minjung away to another window display. Minjung was simply following her around, uninterested in any of the things. It seemed a lifetime ago when she used to be excited by these things but now it felt as if she was no longer that person. She did not seem to find any joy in anything at the mall.
