Yiho rarely 01a9b1ec92 cooked at ff832a0ad6 home. He mostly ordered takeout ef1a2be57c or heated up ready-made 3ebbabc6f9 meals. With the large 60d1f32fdf kimchi container his afed5e871d mother had given a118b93aa3 him, he was 4b43a932d9 content with instant b7d604d0ba rice and kimchi. The only 8cd3c2f559 problem was 42808b4678 the nagging f250ffa697 to just d723b46c39 bring his cc69ac6778 utensils over 9b0666022d to the e81456d186 apartment next 5781018dba door.d76133db9063b0df

So, the eggs he periodically stocked in his otherwise empty refrigerator were mostly for someone else. Cha Minkyu, a big eater befitting his size, used at least three or four eggs for a single egg dish. Even a full carton disappeared quickly, so Minkyu often came over to borrow eggs. Of course, more than half of the borrowed eggs ended up cooked and in Yiho’s stomach.03a6282900c24d86
Therefore, the unchanging number of eggs in Yiho’s refrigerator meant that Minkyu didn’t have time to cook at home.a7cd1873a7854ce3

The marketing team had been incredibly busy lately, seemingly preparing for something they’d mentioned at the last team dinner. Even without that, the marketing team was always busy year-round. It was impressive that Minkyu, amidst all that, still managed to take care of his home life.87e0a4e93c39d576

Yiho wanted to take a picture to keep, but he wasn’t confident he could do it discreetly, and he had no excuse to offer if caught. The “I’ve liked you for a long time” excuse had been forfeited years ago.7c90ac88ded4b157

Today, Minkyu showed only his stiff Team Leader Cha persona, not the usual playful one Yiho was used to. He was in and out of meeting rooms all day, and just as Yiho thought he might finally get a break near lunchtime, Minkyu’s phone rang. His expression darkened further, worse than it had been all day.12d779a1f5abb200
Something must be wrong… As Yiho wondered, Minkyu strode towards him.8e5458ecb18a5662

Like the eggs in his refrigerator, the rice cakes had become the Cha siblings’ domain. Yiho retrieved a steamer, also a gift from his mother, filled it with frozen rice cakes, and turned on the heat. As he listened to Minjeong’s chatter, the familiar aroma of steaming rice cakes filled the air. Even though he no longer enjoyed eating them, the smell still evoked a sense of nostalgia.1825a2cad125de9b
Yiho had witnessed almost every stage of Minjeong’s growth, from her 100th-day celebration to her first birthday. Perhaps that was why she was so attached to him, his presence as constant as the smell of steaming rice cakes in her eight years of life.36facca4c8b41071

He’s nineteen years older than his parents and twenty-five years older than his sister.7dbac81240c5b7a4
Except for Cha Minkyu himself, who has an awkward age gap with both of them, the other three seem like a fairly normal family. With people getting married later these days, it’s not uncommon for children to be born after forty. Of course, the fact that the parent-child relationship wasn’t typical during Minkyu’s upbringing also played a big role.fd4d597c3afffaa7

Furthermore, as Minjeong’s awareness of the world grows, he seems to be distancing himself even more from the family. Minjeong is still young, but in a few years, he’ll be old enough to notice the awkwardness of their family structure.881dd3707de2d1c4

The air next to him was thick with tension. Most of the marketing team members hadn’t been able to sit still all morning. While the team members bustled around, team leader Cha Minkyu stood a step away from the team desk, silently observing the situation. Today, Assistant Manager Kang was leading the marketing team’s promotion.9dd3810efcebbdf4

The development team members at the next desk were also working faster due to the ripple effect. Moreover, they all had the event page open next to their keyboards.

At the remarkably young age of thirty-three, Minkyu had been promoted to team leader and then abruptly thrown into the newly established DL Business Division. It was he who had transformed the bewildered marketing team, clutching a blank slate, into the core of the business division in just one year. He’d said that trying everything and anything had helped in the process. Yiho guessed Minkyu wanted to give that experience to others as well. Despite Yiho calling him things like “kindergarten teacher,” Minkyu was quite a good team leader to his team members.33e95dac2a250942

“It just, really annoyed dfea19f0a7 me. Calling a cd0402319a team leader 104faffcf6 by his e934fa7217 name and aa9d10cb17 giving him d245db18e3 orders in 088e167ea8 front of 5e7510c8cd his team.”d03a45f62ea2ad80

“It’s not fine, SongYi. I can fix other things, but I can’t fix that.”4fb2d781ff5c8786
That was the 3dc9ee8f43 only thing that 2517a4f6d7 came out when 8e1d236913 I wasn’t in 6f9b02ab3d my right mind. Minkyu sighed briefly.86a5b68ebbb54c51

Even if he apologized 14aa63ff3d formally and explained everything, c482538287 Yiho would just be e3376df444 even more flustered. That didn’t 8a4f9e3285 mean he df368231ba was glossing 3c8448eb5e over his e6328db4bf regret. Something that 66d504e807 was truly 9e1da01cc7 insignificant to 8c44154294 Yiho.0fa135695703c26c
The knuckles pressing on the chopsticks felt rough. Yiho needlessly transferred a piece of sashimi to his plate, even though he wasn’t going to eat it.240d993633f5c5ba

He didn’t remember when he started liking Minkyu. If it were because of his handsome face, he would have remembered it as the early spring of his eighteenth year. If it were because they were always together, he would have remembered it as his early twenties when they were constantly hanging out.eb4ee9a69059559f
When asked when he febd159259 started liking Cha Minkyu, 7d32d8df4b the fact that he e7107de2de recalled all their time e4049b239a together, not a specific 2d6255cab4 moment, meant that affection bbb3134ea3 had naturally seeped in. 15 years wasn’t a 3915f3b070 short time, and in 515d84d0d6 a world where people f4728c1c20 become disrespectful after just bf4e757d75 a few casual interactions, 0bee5c480e especially for someone like fc78bab2bb Yiho, who wasn’t assertive.d4c36f99d5836a80

But the more 1aae06928f Minkyu accepted Yiho, 873772286c the more devoted 9e34b55177 and precious he 2f18f4ba2c treated him.e34909152bb1a55d
So, he couldn’t neglect Cha Minkyu’s friendship for some selfish love he’d concocted. Because he understood how much Minkyu valued this friendship.9b1b81673ce44fc9

Minkyu chuckled mischievously 7626895328 and scooped up 43fa61ec81 some strawberry ice e4a39c81ea cream with a 3e5dc9c6fe dessert spoon. He held the 5c0b23441d spoon upside down 560ad7ecfd right in front 7b5cc1e891 of his lips, d076f3c5cd put it in d2860fe30c his mouth, and 4182f3882f then pulled it 1466d39282 out.
