LISA POV:"I don't mind if you want to cry in front of me. You're also a human, in the end. But you can't show this in front of my parents, okay? You need to look strong, mighty, and cold. They are very traditional. Seeing my partner crying like this would give a terrible impression to them."
"Okay, Unnie..." Lisa replied. She finally released Jennie and then sat obediently at the dinner table. Jennie cooked Pork mince stirfried with some other vegetables.
The smell of the food invoked Lisa's hunger as she waited impatiently for it.
After the food was ready, they ate together in harmony. Jennie stole some glance to Lisa once or twice, while Lisa did it a lot more time to Jennie.
Both of them were ashamed that they couldn't hide their interest, but it was too obvious. None of them dared to deny it anymore. They ate in silence, and after dinner, Lisa stopped Jennie.
"Unnie, I want to give you something," Lisa said.
"Oh, what is it?" Jennie acted as if she didn't understand what Lisa was talking about. Even though she already knew well it was about that butter and milk.
Lisa picked the briefcase and then opened it, revealing a block of butter and a bottle of milk inside. She put them on the dinner table and said, "Unnie I'm sorry that I was so insensitive. I didn't know that butter and milk are very important for you."
"So I want to give you this. These milk and butter are the ones I made by myself. I made it with the traditional method, so it is a hundred percent homemade, just like your parents gave you, Unnie. I want to give you the same sentimental feeling for it. Is this okay?"
Jennie stared at the butter and milk. She felt even guiltier than before. Because she knew that Lisa went to another country just to make her these.
Yeah, it was extra, but it also showed how serious Lisa was, even if she didn't say it.
Lisa thought Jennie would question whether it was a real homemade by her own hands."U-unnie, I can always show you how I did it, so you will believe that I am the one who made it," Lisa tried to convince, but Jennie just sighed and took the milk and butter.
Jennie put it inside the fridge and returned to Lisa with two cups of puddings.
"Let's just eat together. That snowdrop would be played soon," Jennie said.
Lisa and Jennie sat on the couch, eating pudding together while watching snowdrop.
Lisa was extra clingy today, so she boldly sat close to Jennie and shifted her position by rested her head on Jennie's shoulder.
Lisa's eyes glued at the television, but she asked Jennie, "Unnie, are you not going to question how did I make traditional butter?"
"Well, it's not my place to ask that," Jennie replied. "I just feel grateful that you returned. I really thought I've made you mad because I scolded you harshly a few days ago, really, it was just a five minutes burst."
"Lili, you don't need to go harsh on yourself. I'm someone who got angry quick but also calmed down quickly. I don't want you to feel troubled just because of my outburst," Jennie said.
