The next morning
Hoseok leaned against the doorframe, brushing a stray lock of hair behind his ear.
Hobi: “Kook-ah, should we go shopping today?”
Jungkook blinked up at him, eyes already sparkling.
Jk: “Umm… okay!”
Before Hoseok could even smile, Taehyung’s head popped out of his room.
Vmin: “We’ll come too!”
Hobi: “For what?”
Taehyung shuffled forward.
Tae: “Because… umm… we also want to shop.”
Hoseok raised a brow.
Hobi: “I’ll take you another day.”
Jimin crossed his arms dramatically.
Jimin: “We want to go with you.”
Hoseok sighed and patted their heads lightly.
Hobi: “Get ready, Kook.”
Jk: “Okie!”
He danced his way to his room—literally.

Some time later
Jungkook came downstairs wearing an outfit that made VMin freeze mid-breath.
Tae: “Kookie, you’ll catch a cold if you wear that.”
Hoseok looked him up and down.
Hobi: “How? He’s wearing a sweater.”
Jimin: “But the bottom—”
Hobi: “Shut up, you two.”
He grabbed Jungkook’s hand and the two left, leaving VMin dramatically abandoned.

Evening
Yoongi returned home, changed, and walked downstairs—only to find VMin sulking on the couch like two abandoned kittens.
Yoongi: “What happened now?”
Taehyung sniffed loudly.
Tae: “Mumma and Kook left without us.”
(Fake crying, Oscar-worthy.)
Jimin joined, head on Yoongi’s arm.
Jimin: “Daddd… they left us.”
Yoongi stared at them, unimpressed but mildly amused.
Yoongi: “What do you want to eat?”
Jimin: “That’s it? No sympathy?”
Yoongi: “I’m making sundubu-jjigae.”
And he walked to the kitchen like a man done with children.

Later, when HopeKook return
The moment they stepped inside, the smell hit them—warm, rich, inviting.
They followed it to the kitchen…
Vmin were sitting on the counter kicking their feet while Yoongi cooked.
Hobi: “We’re back!”
Jungkook tugged Yoongi’s shirt.
Jk: “Yoongi-uncle can cook! Dada never goes in the kitchen.”
Yoongi: “Jin never lets him.”
Jungkook gasped softly.
Jk: “Want to see what I bought?”
He asked VMin—ignored.
He pouted and turned sassily.
Jk: “Yoongi-uncle, I asked something.”
Yoongi didn’t even look fazed.
Yoongi: “…Okay.”
After finishing, he let Jungkook drag him away to showcase his new clothes.
