"Crayon! Crayyy-ooo-nnn" Hyukjae took out an orange crayon from his new drawing kit.
Since he learnt to talk – albeit just a little – Hyukjae has given himself a mission: he has taken on the responsibility to teach his younger friend to talk.
Donghae, whose first word was "hyukkie", has refused to continue his 'talking' phase. So while Hyukjae had began to talk in one or two worded sentences, Donghae was still stuck on "hyukkie". Perhaps Donghae didn't have encouragement, nor did he have an incentive to want to learn to speak. After all, Hyukjae almost always understood what he meant - and that's all that matters.
But Hyukjae didn't think so. He found it quite annoying or irritating that Donghae continues to use body language.
"Crayyy-ooo-nnn! Repeat!"
But Donghae continued to sit on the floor, his legs spread apart, staring curiously at the orange thing that was in his friend's hand.
"Hae!!!"
"Hyukkie?"
"Crayyyy-ooo-nnn"
This time, Donghae stood up and came closer to take the orange thing. And once he managed to snatch the thing, he started to it. The smarter boy, Hyukjae, winced at this and shook his head. He face palmed himself before snatching the crayon back.
"Crayon! Not food!"
Donghae nodded and sat really close to Hyukjae. He continued to look, waiting for Hyukjae to begin his daily lessons.
"Not food! Draw! Colour! Crayon!"
Donghae nodded again.
Hyukjae handed the crayon to Donghae and the latter took it with gratitude. He turned it around several times and gave it back. Sensing that Donghae was yet to fully understand the use of the crayon, Hyukjae took a piece of paper from his drawing kit and began to scribble a few unknown shapes. Of course, those scribbles were supposed to be a flower or a bear or a train - and it only looked like that to Hyukjae alone.
Donghae looked at the paper and squinted his eyes. He was trying to make sense of today's lesson: crayon.
