Evening time
Jungkook POV

"No bun, you can't have milk for a couple of days" I said to Jungsun who was whining about having milk since morning. His recovery had to be focused on rehydration and light meals, so there I was, finding different ways to get him eating something good and appropriate.

With Jungsun whimpering in my arms, I was looking for a bowl in the cupboards of our kitchen when my phone rang.

"Tsk, who's it?" I groaned in annoyance. Without bothering to close the cupboard, I trudged my feet back to the room to pick up the call.

I searched for my phone in the unfolded sheets of my bed and saw the callers name.

Taehyung

As the ring was about to go off, I picked up the call quickly and answered, "Hyung."

"Hey, Kook. I'll be there in half an hour. And don't worry about dinner. Mom has packed some for us and Jungsun."

I sighed, feeling a deep sense of relief at his words. Though I had somehow arranged something for dinner, I was beyond drained. I had slept for quite a long time in a while, however, it had only left me feeling sluggish.

"Thankyou hyung..."

"Mom is saying Jungkook must eat well tonight, haha." 

I giggled at his mom's remarks, feeling genuinely happy and excited for the homemade food.

"Haha, I will for sure."

"Did Jungsun eat something?"

"Yeah, some porridge and ORS. He's still whining for milk. I'm gonna try to give him some banana before you arrive" I said, yawning with tiredness.

"That's good enough for today. You're doing great."

"I suppose so."

"See you soon then, bye!"

While talking to Taehyung, I had walked back to the kitchen to grab a banana from the fruit basket in the refrigerator. Sliding the phone in my pocket, I peeled the fruit and said, "Baby, here, have some. Taehyung uncle will be here shortly to play with you."

Jungsun sniffed the fruit suspiciously, then turned his head behind my shoulder and screamed, "No Dada! Want milk!"

I was pretty much expecting a tantrum over everything that wasn't milk. I reached out for a floral bowl from the upper cabinet on the left and settled it on the kitchen counter. I peeled the banana completely and mashed it with a fork, then drizzled some honey over it.

I licked a tine of the fork and exclaimed, loud enough to gain the kid's attention, "Woah, this is so yum!" As always, Jungsun peeked at me from the corner of his eyes before turning his head towards my face.

The expressions of joy and content were clearly written over my face as I licked off the mash completely from the fork.

"I gotta give this to Minnie-"

"Dada!"

"Yes bun?" I asked, faking oblivion although internally, I was smirking with victory.

"Wanna eat this" he pointed towards the bowl.

"Oh, are you sure baby? I thought you didn't want to have a banana." Yes, I was testing waters at that point.

"I wanna have! No Minnie!" He shook his head in denial, again pointing his little finger at the bowl and jolting himself in the same direction.
