"What in the world???"

You shouted, honestly shocked by what you see right now. The house was in a complete mess, making Key shifted uncomfortably.

"Er, hehe. I'm not really..er..expert in cleaning" he said, rubbing his nape nervously.

Standing there, in front of the door, you were dumbfounded.

'He's a boy, for god's sake'

You turned to him, smiling.

"You're lucky my parents stayed for work this week. So, I have plenty of time"

Key's lips formed into a smile. Both of you started out the chores. You're mopping the floors, your face felt wet and...bubbly for a second.

You lift your gaze from the floor to him, who innocently rearranging the smaller pillows on the couch.

"You surely can act well Key" you slyly said before continuing your work. Even when your eyes concentrated on the floors, you can feel him smiling.

After finishing all the chores, you and Key breathing heavily, trying to regain energy.

You and him flopping down on the couch. Silence passed by.

"Thank you noona, for helping me today" he smiled sheepishly to which you return it back.

"It's okay, as long as I can fill my zero schedules"

Key gasps, making you turn to him.

"What?"

"Mianhae for my lack of manners!" Saying that, he ran off to the kitchen.

From where you sat, you could hear the clinks and the clanks of only God knows what he's doing.

You're fiddling with your fingers, wondering why is Key calling you noona when he's one year older than you.

"Noona! Here, I made it"

You jump, slightly in your seat. When on earth did he came...

He offered you a glass-full of milkshake, which in return you take it greatfully.

You take a sip while Key's watching you intently.

"Mmm, this is soo goood Key!"

His lips formed into a beautiful and genuine smile.

"Thank you noona, well, this is for you for helping me"

"Hey, erm.. Key. Can you stop calling me 'noona'?"

His expression changed.

"Waeyo? You don't like it?"

You shift uncomfortably. It's not that you don't like it. Only...weird.

"I do, but it's kinda weird for me where I'm the one supposed to call you 'Oppa' and yet, I only call you by your name"

Your statement only leaving him wondering.

"Oh right! So, what do you want me to call you then?"

Your eyes wondering in seconds before saying,

"Just ____ enough"

He grinned.

"Okay _____"
