Morning sunlight shined into the room through the gaps between the curtain, showed two bodies lying on the bed, facing each other, one with higher position than another. The one that got his head ducked inside the soft but thick blanket, started to move, flickered his eyes opened, but closed back to the sudden intrusion of bright light.

He laid on his back and opened his eyes again, found himself in an unfamiliar room. He then realized that he had stayed in Mingyu's room last night. Taking a quick glance at the mattress on the floor where the younger supposed to sleep, he noticed that the younger was not there, only disheveled, thin blanket is visible. Mingyu probably be downstairs already, he thought.

The older sighed then flopped back to his previous position, he almost yelled when coming face to face to the guy he believed was not supposed to be here. The guy with face resting on the pillow, showing cute, pouty lips along with some drooling.

Gosh, this dude sleep like a kid. Yet, somehow, Wonwoo got mesmerized with what he is seeing right now.

He pulled his hand under the duvet, forwarding to the younger's face. As his hand was about to touch Mingyu's nose, the younger murmured in his sleep, chewing his lips; his hand froze halfway. Wonwoo rapidly blinking his eyes, taking his action to consideration. Why would he want to touch his nose out of nowhere?

While Wonwoo was in the midst of his head, Mingyu was stirring awake, also blinding by the light shining through the window. He gently opened his eyes and stretched out his body; when his right hand touches the other, he stopped dead then looked to the direction of the contact.

"So, when will you both stop looking at each other and come to have breakfast?"

Both men jolted away from the bed as if it contained electricity and landed on the floor.

Apparently, the duo didn't hear the cracking noise caused by Mama Jeon opening the door. At first, she just came to call Mingyu as a request from another woman in the house and assuming that her own son had gone back home. Instead, she saw an endearing sight of two of them losing in each other eyes that made her silently cooing.

"This woman, I swear" Wonwoo spoke under his breath, when he looked back at the door and his mother already gone.

"Come on kid, let's go have breakfast." The older got up, scanning to where the younger man fall.

"Um, I, you go first, hyung. I-I have to use the bathroom." Mingyu said and basically sprinted there. 

Wonwoo brushed it off as the younger need to pee so we went down first. He was greeted brightly by both women especially from Mingyu's mother.

"Good morning, dear." Mama Kim started, "Mingyu's not up yet?"

"Mingyu already woke up, auntie. He said he wash up first."

"Our children sound so domestic, Yeonsu-ah. Earlier, I walked into them looking at each other as if they were in love." Mama Jeon squealed as though the couple that she shipped is finally together.

"Mom, please." Wonwoo rubbed between his eyebrow.

Yeonsu just looked at the mother and son duo bickering to each other fondly. She would sometime tease her son as well, especially when she knew that the other would get flustered and lose ability to speak properly.

Mingyu would whine back to her with his face flushed red from both the embarrassment and flattering.

She simply wanted to her child to experience love and being loved again before she passed even if she had to be the matchmaker herself.

After cooking the last piece of bacon, mama Kim prepared the plates for the guests, also her family. Placing them on the tables, she excused herself to check up on Mingyu.

"Gyu, you're done?" she knocked twice on the bathroom door which she didn't get response.

"Gyu, Mama's coming in, okay?" she entered the room to find Mingyu sitting gloomy on the made bed, "Why aren't you coming down to eat breakfast, hmm?"

"What do you have in your mind? Do you want to share it with me?" the elder sat next to her son, with her hand rest assuring on his knee. She tends to know that he overthinks a lot in his head, though sometimes he would be quite blunt.

"Wonwoo hyung agree to go on a date with me, mom" Mingyu started.

Mama Kim looked taken aback from the tone that Mingyu used, concerning expression displayed all over her face.

"Is he willing to do it or something else happens?" She replied back.

"Last night, I think he is willing to, but now I don't think so anymore."

"What make you think that?"

"So last night, I was supposed to sleep on the floor," Mingyu pointed to the mattress that he had not tidied up yet. "And the mattress was a bit dent, so it hurt my back."

"So, you decided to come on the bed and slept beside him?" she raised her eyebrow.

"Y-yes, but I only slept next to him, I did not do anything else." The son quickly exclaimed.

"Mama knows, my baby is not the kind of person to do something without consent" she winked to him to which he responded back with a whine. "Is that why you are sulking in your room?"

Mingyu nodded

"Oh, my baby," she sided hugs him, "Maybe he didn't think the same way you did. I don't believe he gave it that much thought."

"I assumed the same, regardless I'm still scared. What if he decides not to go that date anymore. I'm nervous to even look at his face now."

"It's going to be okay, sweetie. Perhaps, you can talk to him about it. So that it won't keep you up all day."

Mingyu agreed with a deep breath.
