Mingyu poured a whole sack of flour into a bowl, some powder spilling and scattering on the table, on the floor and on Mingyu's apron. Wonwoo just tsked. They are in Mingyu's kitchen to bake a cake for Jihoon, who's celebrating his birthday today. They can't think of a nice gift, so they turned to baking. Like what Mingyu always say, "mas matimbang yung effort kaysa sa halaga ng regalo" but Wonwoo knows Mingyu just doesn't want to spend money.
Lumapit si Wonwoo sa kanya at tumulong sa paghahalo ng mga ingredients. Wala silang alam sa pagbebake, but their eagerness to give Jihoon a memorable gift made them into a professional pastry chefs. Malas nga lang at imagination lang yun. Both men are a disaster in the kitchen. Flour scattered everywhere, the wire whisk is on the floor, spilled egg whites and yolks makes the place sticky.
"Hindi ba sinusukat itong baking powder?" Tanong ni Wonwoo habang hawak hawak ang isang kahon ng baking powder. Mingyu held Wonwoo's hand and guided it to pour the powder on the bowl. Napaangat ang tingin ni Wonwoo kay Mingyu. Sobrang lapit nila sa isa't isa. Wonwoo's lips are just a few centimeters away from Mingyu's jaw. Napalunok na lang si Wonwoo at iniwas ang tingin. Bumilis ang tibok ng puso niya at naramdaman niya ang pagiinit ng pisngi niya.
"Wag na. Inubos ko yung sa harina e, siguro dapat iubos mo din yan para balanced." Sagot ni Mingyu. Binasag ni Mingyu ang isang itlog sa mangkok at nilagay ang laman no'n sa bowl. Some of the shells went with the egg and got mixed up with the flour. Wonwoo cleared his throat.
"Lagyan mo ng tubig." Wonwoo said and gestured towards the pitcher while mixing the ingredients on the bowl.
Mingyu went to get the pitcher and poured it on the mixture. After a few minutes, inilagay na nila ang mixture sa oven. Pagkatapos ay pareho silang napasandal sa mesa at pinanuod ang cake na maluto.
"Kukunin ko yung whipped cream." Sabi ni Mingyu at umalis para kunin ang whipped cream. Pinapak kasi ni Mingyu yung kalahati, kaya naiwan niya sa living room.
Wonwoo started to clean their mess while waiting for Mingyu, then suddenly, nakatapak siya sa spilled egg at nadulas. Napaupo siya sa sahig at napasigaw sa sakit. Mingyu came with a worried look and gasped when he saw Wonwoo seated on the floor. Sa pagmamdali ay hindi niya na nabitawan ang bote ng whipped cream at nang sasaklolohan niya na si Wonwoo, natapunan ito ng whipped cream sa ilong. Mingyu gasped again.
Wonwoo closed his eyes with the sudden contact of the cold cream with his nose. Mingyu is addicted with sweets, so he couldn't fight the urge to taste that sweet little fella waiting for him to consume, so he leaned towards Wonwoo, and licked the cream off Wonwoo's nose.
Wonwoo's eyes shot open when he felt a colder thing touch the tip of his nose and his eyes grew wider when he realized what that thing is. Mingyu then leaned back and licked his own lips.
"M-Mingyu..." Was all Wonwoo could mutter.
Mingyu smiled sweetly at Wonwoo. An idea popped inside his head.
"Mingyu, kung ano man ang binabalak mo, wag mo na—" napapikit uli si Wonwoo ng dumampi sa ilong niya ang malamig na cream. Mingyu leaned and licked the cream off Wonwoo's nose again. Naitulak siya ni Wonwoo.
"Mingyu!" Sigaw ni Wonwoo at tumayo, Mingyu just laughed at the older.
"Come here, hyung. I'm not over yet." Natatawang pangaasar ni Mingyu.
