" Unnieeee~ I want to eat the churros." Soomin points at the churros store opposite the restaurant you are having for food, eyes sparkling with hope. 

" Sure, after you have lunch we will head there and buy one." You hand her the menu, notice how sweaty she is after Soomin got down from your back. Hold a cold towel, you dab her face a little bit so the sweat can go away. " Now what do you want to eat?"

" Hmmm, Soomin wants to eat tropical Pizza. Can I?" She points at the picture in the menu, smiles happily.

" Sure, you want to eat medium size?"

" Yes yes." 

You order the food while Soomin is sitting opposite, hand holding a fan to cool off her sweat. The restaurant has the AC but it will take a while for the heat to cool down. The cute little girl now is sitting in the cool ac and cold water is energized again, looking around fascinating. 

The restaurant is quite a famous place but it's not so crowded at this hour yet. Maybe it's still too early to eat lunch at 12, or people were just having late breakfasts like you too. 

Soomin complains that she is still very full from the breakfast but you have to get her eating now or not the schedule will slide away and they'll end up eating dinner at midnight, which will gain you lots of weight. Staying in Korea means more street food so you have to keep the meal at the correct time if you don't want to wear your jeans anymore.

Looking outside the window, the sun blaze is shining through the glass window, focus on the dark wooden table. The restaurant smells like vanilla and cheesecake, tingling a little bit of coffee smell in the air. Next to the window is the small pot of daffodil moving slightly. Other than good food, this restaurant is famous for its vintage flower shop style. People who are allergic to flower can't enjoy the food here but the restaurant has a shipping service, which you constantly order when you were in Seoul. 

Soomin was first fascinated by the flower in the pot but after a while poking, touching, caressing, kissing, etc... the flower, she starts to get bored. 

"  Unnieeee, can we do something?" She stretches, lying on the table mumbling. Boredom is clearly shown in her voice

" hmm, yeah? What do you want to do?"    

"Tell me something nice when you're abroad." -She asks, pouting. Obviously, she wants to play games but there is nothing here to play so the cupcake can only carry on an endless boring conversation. Her eyes say so, apparently.

You chuckle, not knowing how to what to say. For you, life back at your home is normal and you can't think of anything enjoyable. Maybe it's because you're too familiar with it? You don't really know. " Hmm, I have never thought about that, but maybe back there, I enjoy the education system there more?" You look at Soomin, who is tilting her head, confusion in her eyes and having trouble to understand the complicated word you just said. Maybe for a 6 years old girl that's not very easy to understand? " We don't have the pressure to study back there compare in Korea." You sum up your point, give her a faint smile.

" Anything else?" She asks, eyes sparkling. Clearly that point didn't interest her as much as it is.

" Maybe I can eat churros, hotdog, pizza all day." Maybe this is what she expected?

" Wow, so cool! Ama rarely lets me eat churros. Hmm, she said the tooth fairies will not like my tooth if I eat too much sweet." She folds her arm, shaking head in disbelief. Chuckling, you didn't realize she still believes in the tooth fairy. 

" Umm, we get to go to Disney Land once in a while. It's really big and fun." You say, showing the picture of the marvellous castle with the Mickey and Minnies. Her eyes sparkle in interest and smile wide, never thought that you would show her this.
