        3RD PERSONS VIEW。

jaeyoung felt her eye twitch upon the sight that laid in front of her. the younger ones, mainly chenle and jisung, were running around, laughing as kun tried to chase them, yes tried. on the other hand, the others were simply mixing the dry ingredients when lucas poured too much flour, screaming sorry as mark laughed at him.

yuta joined in with youngho and ten as they made some coffee, only for the beans to fall on the floor and taeil ended up crushing them. sicheng pouted as he pleaded for donghyuck to give him a more drinkable cup of juice.

renjun sighed and shook his head as he tried to find the recipe for the pastry they were gonna bake. taeyong was beside jaehyun as they looked around for the required ingredients, taeyong ended up leaving jaehyun to attend jisung and chenle instead as the two boys were scolded by kun.

jaemin looked absolutely done as jeno kept pouring milk into the bowl of mixed fruits. jungwoo laughed and watched the chaos unfold right in front of him, nudging doyoung who kept sighing the whole time.

"i apologize for their childish acts, daisy." doyoung muttered as he gaze upon his messy brothers.

jaeyoung chuckled, waving her hand, "no, it's fine..." she trailed off, glancing at the other boys, "seems like not all of you go well with cooking."

"tell me about it, donghyuck nearly burned the kitchen when he tried to cook without supervision." kun sighed and massaged his temples, panting after a wild chase with chenle and jisung.

"did we lose him?" jisung questioned chenle as they hid behind taeyong's back.

taeyong laughed heartily, turning around to mess their hair, "you two are such troublemakers!"

"my lady... does this seem right?" lucas questioned, pointing towards the bowl.

her face went pale upon seeing the bowl. yes, it was thoroughly mixed, but she could obviously see something wrong.

squinting her eyes she came close to the bowl, her eyes scanning it slowly. then it hit her. she eyed the now empty egg cartons, laughing as she looked up to lucas and mark, "where are the egg shells? did you throw them away?"

their eyes widened in shock, "you were supposed to dispose them!?"

kun let out a deep sigh, looking at jaeyoung with a look of embarrassment, "okay, maybe baking with all of us was a bad idea."

jaemin walked towards the girl who crouched down to take a better look at the flowers. she yawned and tilted her head back, "gosh, cooking with all of you was a mess."

jaemin chuckled and helped her up, "wasn't it? i can't believe they even poured a lot of milk..." he pouted as they went towards the gazebo.

jaeyoung laughed, "what do you want to do jaemin?"

"hmm... honestly, anything is fine, as long as i'm with you i'll be okay with anything." he answered, taking a seat beside her as their eyes casted far onto the castle fields. "how about... we go to visit my mother?" he suggested.

jaeyoung looked at him, a ghost smile on her face, "i'd love that."

jaemin lead her to lady haewon's grave which was guarded by a few standby nights. they walked into the garden like place, the girl gawking at the beautiful flowers. "oh? there are new flowers," jaemin pointed out, seeing a vase of lilies.

"i guess my brothers visited her a day ago." he chuckled and took a seat, the girl also crouching down beside him.

"if mother was still alive, i bet she'd love you." he stated, caressing her face.
