Memories of Spring | K.th & K.js

On an exhausting noon, the caretakers were whimsy whilst having lunch at a well-designed cottage along the seaside.

The intractable boy was still coping up in his two-week stay in the island. The people, especially the caretakers of the resort welcomed him wholeheartedly. The unhandy boy watched them having fun; there's Mr. Hunjoong, a widower at 40, was listening and sniggering at the silly jokes and stories of his cared 10-year-old twins. Jisoo was also joining the twins' frivolity and her grandma was amused by the three the whole time.

"Jisoo unnie, your gimbap really tastes great! Please make more again next time-" Haemi was about to wedge the last gimbap on the serving plate when a certain hand swiftly snatched the gimbap. The helpless kid tearfully watched her twin brother savor her stolen gimbap.

"That's my gimbap!" Haemi exclaimed then punched his twin brother's right arm.

"Aww! It doesn't have your name on it so it wasn't yours!" Haejoon taunted back while rubbing his twinged arm.

"You're really annoying as ever!" The kid shrieked in anger. She attempted to punch Haejoon again but they were interrupted by an authoritative voice.

"Kids stop it. Here, Haemi." Grandma Jikyung placed her uneaten gimbap on Haemi's plate. Haemi downcast her gaze, glaring secretly to her now behaved twin.

Mr. Hunjoong hissed then lectured the kids. "I always told you not argue especially in the front of food."

The twins behaved and continued their eating silently. Taehyung mentally sniggered upon the twins' headstrong personality. He wished he had the same trait so he'll be able to fight for himself from the bullies.

"Here, Grandma. Take mine." Taehyung transferred his gimbap onto the old lady's plate. The boy remembers his late grandma with Grandma Jikyung-he always wanted to make his grandma eat plenty so he does the same to Jisoo's grandma.

All of their eyes followed a hand wedging a gimbap towards the boy's plate.

"What?" Jisoo asked when she noticed that everyone were looking whilst tingling except the astounded boy.

Jisoo faked a laugh before speaking, supporting her action. "Ahh, I just want him to taste the yummiest gimbap in Korea!"

They nodded in disbelief and continued eating whilst the girl hid her heating cheeks.

The puzzled boy unknowingly morsel off the gimbap. His lips parted a bit upon chewing the food-it was the most unique tasting gimbap he have ever tasted!

Taehyung felt inlove with Jisoo's gimpab-no, it was just one of the countless reasons why she got him captivated.
