"Can we go out..."

"No....." The answer came even before he could finish his sentence, "Boss please... give me a break. We've been up since 3am this morning and I'm dead tired!!"

"But we haven't had dinner...I'm hungry...." SJ looked down dejectedly.

"I can stop you nearby and pack some food before we head back?" 

"Its okay...... Let's go home."

SJ resigned to his fate, its not that he wasn't tired but he didn't exactly like going to an empty house. For the first half of the year he was at home most of the time while she was busy filming. But now that roles are switched, she was busy touring the world.

Not that he was complaining....or had any rights to complain. His family is staying in the same city while hers is staying half a world away. Since the beginning he knows that it has been her family tradition to travel together but...

"Sigh!!...." He disappointment echoed through the lift as he stared blankly at the ascending numbers. Just then the grumbling sound of his stomach added to the negativity in the air.

Appearing in his PJ all freshend up, he takes his seat opposite her as she laid the last of the dinner on the table. Spread was simple with a soup, some chopped vegetables and sliced eggs, seems like dishes ready for a bibimbap.

"Just got home not long ago... didn't get the chance to buy food along the way so I could only make do with all that's left in the fridge. Let's eat simple alright? Would get you your meat tomorrow."

"How do you know that I am starving..." He smiled as he picked through the ingredients, the food was a bit too much for two people but it's just great for his empty stomach. Putting more than the usual portion into the bowl and drizzling the sesame oil before mixing away.

She joined him across the table and stopped his hands in mid-air before he reached out to add in more eggs into the bowl, "Go easy! That's too much for a portion already."
