Lisa and Jennie stood near the airport gates, looking past the crowds. After waiting for ten minutes, they saw Father Lisa pushing a cart full of bags and Mother Lisa next to him wearing a sun cap. This was a typical look of someone who had just come from Jeju.
"Dad, mom." Lisa took the cart from his father as Jennie wrapped her arms around Mother Lisa.
"Who told you that you were allowed to pick us up?" Mother Lisa's eyes were bright, but her mouth still spouted complaints.
"Jennie wanted to come." Lisa smiled as he placed all the credit to Jennie.
When Mother Lisa heard this, she immediately turned to Jennie only to see her small face looking a little haggard. Feeling distressed, Mother Lisa said, "Oh, look at the dark circles under your eyes. You work so late, how come you picked us up anyway?"
"As soon as I heard that you and dad were coming back, I became too excited to sleep." Jennie's saleswoman mouth took over as she laughed.
Lisa thought of Jennie's earlier sleepy appearance and wanted to chuckle, but he didn't ruin his wife's attempts.
Mother Lisa listened with a smile. Even if she knew Jennie was just buttering her up, she was happy to hear these words.
The four quickly left the airport, with Lisa driving them to his parent's home. The Manoban residence was located in an old district in the city. Although the community facilities were dated, the location was good and quiet. It was a good place for the elderly to live in.
Lisa and Father Lisa took two bags each into the house while Jennie opened all the windows to let the air in.
Seeing the amount of dust, Jennie couldn't help but say: "Mom, why don't you and dad stay with us today? We can hire someone to clean the house and wash the sheets so you can move back home comfortably tomorrow."
"No, we don't want to barge in on your love nest." Mother Lisa refused.
"Mom, you're exaggerating." Jennie didn't know whether she should laugh or cry.
"Then you should think of it as you being in the way of me and Father Lisa's lovenest." Mother Lisa changed her approach.
Father Lisa coughed when he heard this, but didn't say a word when Mother Lisa glared at him.
Jennie and Lisa looked at each other and smiled.
"Then let's go out for lunch first, then clean up." Lisa proposed.
Everyone unanimously agreed.
The four randomly ordered a few dishes from a nearby restaurant. In fact, you could say that the smaller the shop is, the more authentic their food was. Jennie found it difficult to stop eating their pickled fish.
Lisa noticed Jennie's non-stop eating of the pickled fish, so he took his chopsticks and helped put some more in her bowl.
Jennie tilted her head to give him a sweet smile.
Mother Lisa saw her son and daughter-in-law getting along and being sweet. She was gratified to see their harmonious relationship.
"Jen, I think this pickled fish is a little too sour. But you like it?" Mother Lisa asked with an ambiguous smile.
"Pickled fish is the most delicious when sour." Jennie replied.
"Do you like to eat sour food?" Mother Lisa's eyebrows were raised.
"It's not my absolute favorite, but maybe my appetite today is just big." Jennie slowed down her eating when she realized that her greedy eating might have scared her mother-in-law.
