Love Strikes Twice

Wedding Plans

The morning after the family meeting, Jeonghan and Seungcheol sat in Jeonghan’s cozy living room, surrounded by wedding magazines and planners. Excitement filled the air as they began to discuss their wedding plans.

"I was thinking about a garden wedding," Jeonghan suggested, flipping through a magazine. "What do you think?"

Seungcheol nodded, smiling. "I love that idea. It would be beautiful. Do you have any venues in mind?"

Before Jeonghan could answer, Mingyu entered the room, looking around. "Hey, mind if I join you guys?"

Seungcheol waved him over. "Sure, Mingyu. We could use your help with some of the planning."

Mingyu took a seat next to them but quickly lost interest in the wedding talk. Instead, he glanced around, spotting Wonwoo in the kitchen. Taking the opportunity, he got up and wandered over.

"Hey, Wonwoo," Mingyu said casually. "Need any help?"

Wonwoo barely looked up from his task. "No, I'm good. Thanks."

Mingyu leaned against the counter, trying to make small talk. "So, you like cooking?"

Wonwoo shrugged. "It's alright."

Undeterred, Mingyu continued. "I noticed you have a great collection of books. Any recommendations?"

Wonwoo remained indifferent. "Depends on what you like."

Mingyu sighed inwardly but kept his tone light. "I’m open to anything, really. Just looking for something interesting."

Wonwoo glanced at him briefly before returning to his task. "Maybe try some classic literature."

Mingyu, on the other hand, felt a mix of frustration and fascination with Wonwoo's aloof demeanor. Determined not to give up, he decided he would find a way to break through Wonwoo's indifference eventually.

Mingyu decided to push his luck a bit further. "You know, I’ve always found classic literature a bit daunting. Maybe you could show me your favorites sometime?"Wonwoo’s expression didn’t change. "Maybe."

Back in the living room, Jeonghan and Seungcheol exchanged amused glances, overhearing bits of Mingyu’s attempts at conversation. Mingyu, frustrated but determined, finally left the kitchen and returned to the living room, muttering to himself about Wonwoo’s indifference.

Seungcheol noticed his brother’s grumbling and raised an eyebrow. "What’s wrong, Mingyu?""Nothing," Mingyu replied, flopping onto the couch. "Just trying to be friendly."

Seungcheol chuckled and reached over, pinching Mingyu’s ear. "Not causing any trouble, are you?""Ow! No, I’m not!" Mingyu protested, rubbing his ear. "Just trying to make a conversation."

"Well, just don't annoy Wonwoo too much," Seungcheol warned, still smiling. "We need him to help with the wedding plans, not run away."
"Yeah, yeah," Mingyu grumbled, but the hint of a smile played on his lips. He wasn’t going to give up that easily.
