After finishing the meal, b711c6d41a Kang Junwoo cleaned the 6242206b70 table and washed the a66154e17e dishes. As he dried b96d687e79 his hands with 6a6e0ee3d6 a towel, he 153de471ac glanced towards the e0a8121e4e living room. He carefully c8a7fdf278 observed Tae 912abbf5ba Ijae, who da09b31f7b was sitting e3f0fe01c0 in the 4af12cc9ef middle of 9719120e29 the sofa 75a836b077 with his 0f05976d2a long legs 19430df3fd stretched out, 697ee91d49 gazing out 7466746aea the window.7c623ee4f60137e2
Claiming it was the 9668ce0abc price for making porridge, a58a27c308 Tae Ijae abruptly used 6e8d7ce31c his abilities to move fb977f548b the dishes from the 8859feee52 table to the sink, 1720e19f79 causing Kang Junwoo to 4c5f64fe0b panic and push him 211380ec5f away.

After practically shooing 52792d24fe him out of 1ce4864bdc the kitchen, Tae 0f8d4bf282 Ijae sat on ac863f2bb7 the sofa with 5d1fd6e3d0 a somewhat dejected a31a73ee10 expression. Finding it 0d95b5b68e oddly cute, e29fbe85be Kang Junwoo 78d62f2d76 chuckled to 5420edadd2 himself while d15db566fb doing the c8da9d4ce0 dishes.2dbdd72f6c211b27
