『There was once a boy who had a father, mother, and younger sister. They were twins, born under the shining moon on the sixteenth of August.
Having golden hair resembling his father's, eyes shimmering like rubellites whenever he smiled. Pinky promis...
With a turn of a door, the scent of raspberries fills the air. Chestnut locks dance in the wind, ocean eyes curved like crescent moons.
Mae Siani clutches the bag filled with gifts in her hands while bowing ninety degrees, her posture immaculate. The sun spilling into the room highlights her pale skin, making her seem ethereal.
She raises her head, a gentle smile on her lips with rosy cheeks. "It's nice to see you two again, my Dearest Cousins," Mae Siani declares with beaming eyes.
Bam!
Lee Jihye gawks with her mouth agape at the appearance of her cousin. Her hold on her chopsticks weakens, the utensils dropping to the ground.
"Siani-ah~!" Lee Jihye exclaims with glee, "I miss you so much~!" She dashes her way to throw her arms around Mae Siani, squeezing her tight.
Lee Haneul sighs once more, picking up her chopsticks from the ground. "Jihye, let Siani rest. She must have been jet-lagged from her travels," he reminds his sister, "And you're acting like Aunt right now."
His sister pouts but reluctantly complies. She releases the hold on her cousin, taking the bags to lessen her burden. "Fine, whatever," Lee Jihye grumbles.
Mae Siani giggles at this, thanking Lee Jihye for her actions. "Hello to you as well, Haneul," she greets her male cousin, receiving a nod in return.
Lee Jihye drops the bags down on the couch, beginning to look through them. "Oh~, Siani-eonni! What did you get me this year!" The twenty-one-year-old excitedly asks, hands busy moving.
"Jihye, that's rude!" Lee Haneul scolds his sister, throwing away the packets of ramen after he opened them. When Lee Jihye sticks her tongue out, the Writer could only groan.
His cousin pats his back, trying to comfort the stressed male. "It's alright, Haneul. They are for your anyway," Mae Siani utters while taking a packet of instant coffee.
"Are you okay with instant ramen and coffee?" Lee Haneul queries. Despite his words, he continues watching the instant ramen cooking in the saucepan.
Mae Siani laughs, stirring the coffee in her marble mug with a golden spoon. "Says the one raised with a diamond spoon in his mouth," she teases, taking a sip of her coffee.
Lee Haneul scoffs. "And who's the girl being showered with gold and different riches from all over the world?" He counters with a grin. "Also, Jihye, don't touch my gifts," he directs to his sister.
"I'll listen to that, don't worry!" Lee Jihye yells back, peeling one wrapped box open to reveal a box of FerreroRocher. "Aw! Thanks, Siani-eonni," she proclaims to her cousin, already popping one in her mouth.
"You're welcome, Jihye," Mae Siani calmly replies, peeking to see her nearly finishes ramen. "Haneul, at the very least, my parents allow me to travel abroad without bodyguards stalking me," the brunette mumbles, tone provoking.
Lee Haneul sighs, giving up. "Anyways, your ramen is finished," he points out, making his cousin grab a bowl. He gives her edo kibashi chopsticks, drying his hands afterward.
Mae Siani enthusiastically sits down on the table, slurping the noodles loud. "Ah~!" She moans while cupping her cheeks, "I miss this taste of instant ramen!"
Lee Jihye giggles at her statement. "If you are happy about instant ramen, Siani-eonni, then you'll faint for later dinner! We're having hot pot!" She exclaims, munching on the chocolate bits.
Mae Siani gasps at her declaration. "Hot pot?!" Her ocean eyes gleam with anticipation, darting towards Lee Haneul. "Is that right?!" She asks for confirmation.
The Writer nods, leaning on the counter. "Yep. We're just waiting for the potatoes I ordered from one of Papa's friends," Lee Haneul replies.
At this, Mae Siani felt utter bliss. "If so, then I can't wait!" The brunette shouts while stomping her feet, blush forming on her cheeks. "Guess I better get ready to have my stomach filled!"
The twins laugh at her reaction.
