"okay, give it back." beom said sticking out his hand where his sister could give back the lollipop he had gave her earlier.
he was disappointed. for once, they thought that all four of them were actually going to go out on a nice family date? but no, here we are, hiding from the three boys who are peacefully shopping around the mall, not knowing a thing about who was following them.
ji sighed and stomped her feet in annoyance, "turns out they're more whipped for him than we expected."
whipped. jaemin and jeno definitely wouldn't admit it, and jeno probably hasn't realized it, but the kids think they love renjun.
and are the kids ever wrong?
besides that, and whatever the heck they're doing here at the mall, they feel quite happy about having a new parent. renjun makes them feel safe and happy after all, so why not?
the siblings only sighed as they looked at their parents who were busy stalking chenle, donghyuck, and renjun from afar. as far as they could see, jaemin and jeno were in a close position hiding behind the store wall to watch them buy ice cream together.
"have they forgotten about us? i mean, they just left us to sit on the bench with some soda." well, he wasn't lying. the two were actually just sitting on the bench drinking some orange sodas on their hands as they watch their parents become... you know what i mean.
ignoring the question her brother just said, ji turned to his brother and smirked, "i guess they're going to get married soon."
beom raised an eyebrow, "but papa and daddy don't even like each other?"
ji rolled her eyes and stood up to shake him by grabbing him on the shoulders, maybe ji was smarter than him after all? the little girl huffed seeing her brother's stupidity, "don't you see it? dada is the one who's going to make this family complete." she sighed as she glanced back to look at her parents once again, "maybe we'll be a happy family together after all."
"move your ass! i can't see him!"
jeno scoffed and turned around to face jaemin who was busy trying to see what renjun was now doing, "why don't you move?!"
call them stalkers, but—
okay, yeah. maybe you can call them stalkers, because i would too. i mean, they were literally hiding just like dispatch.
what i said, stalkers.
back to the point, jeno tried pushing jaemin so he could get out of the way, or to just see renjun in general. both were reasonable to him.
"i swear jeno, i'm going to slam you to the wall if you don't stop fucking moving." jaemin hissed as he shoved jeno back to where he was.
jeno rolled his eyes as he decided that he had enough of jaemin trying to shove him away, so instead, he slammed him to the wall.
"w-what do you think you're doing?" jaemin asked gulping seeing the familiar sight of jeno's face so close to him once again. jeno raised an eyebrow, "well, what do you want me to do?"
jaemin clicked his tongue looking away, "oh please, i already know you aren't going to kiss me. you hate me that much."
really? that was all jaemin could say? jeno felt quite offended by him, but of course, it's true.
jeno leaned in closer, and now their noses were touching, and now the younger really thought he was going to kiss him. staring at jaemin's glossy and sparkling eyes, he really did have the idea of kissing jaemin right now, can he?
"can i?" jeno asked.
jaemin then slowly nodded, not really paying attention to his actions either since he was busy staring at jeno's eyes. the two were now leaning in, ready to kiss each other—
"they really did forget about us, huh?"
jaemin quickly pushed jeno away hearing a familiar voice that was near them, and of course, it just had to be the children quoting shakespeare as they innocently gulp down the innocent the orange soda in their tiny hands, "o-oh hi kids."
"don't 'hi kids' us. we saw what you two were about to do." ji said raising an eyebrow.
of course they saw it. these two are exposed to these types of things everyday. usually people say it's from the internet, but why that, when these two get it at home?
at least we know how these two are going to grow up, definitely not innocent.
"so? we're just watching renjun now. right jaemin?" jeno said as he nervously turned to jaemin in hopes that he would have a brain and side with him.
jaemin rolled his eyes and nodded, "yes children, jeno and i were just watching renjun."
the kids still had their eyebrows raised so they definitely didn't believe their stupid explanation. i mean, they were already in an awkward position, who would believe them? nobody.
"love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind, and therefore is wing'd cupid painted blind." beom spoke in a theatre voice all of a sudden.
ji squinted her eyes in confusion, "what?"
beom shrugged, "shakespeare."
jeno only kneeled down to pat his son on the head, ruffling his hair as he gave him a small smile, "of course it is. my son is too smart for the planet after all." he then looked at her daughter and noticed her waiting for a compliment as well, he ruffled ji's hair as well, "you too, sweetheart."
"at least you know where you get it from." jaemin spoke with a smile on his face. jeno gave him a weird look in disgust, "um, no. it was me."
jaemin scoffed, "no, it's me. who do you think helps the kids do their homework at home?"
"it's addition! and who cooks at the house the most?" jeno excused.
"you! but your burn the kitchen right after!"
beom went in between his parents to shut them up, he took an inhale which usually meant—
"oh great, another shakespeare quote." ji said as she slurped the last sips of her orange soda in her hands, tired of the chaotic family she has.
"first of all, none of you are smart. secondly," he then looked at the ice cream shop where renjun and the other boys were.
