hello hello ^^

I know it's been a long time since I last updated and I wanted to apologize for taking so long. I got busy and ended up with some sentimental issues - and when I planned to get back to writing and posting earlier in the week, I felt like it wasn't an appropriate time for it.

anyway, I'm here these next few weeks with a lot of chapters that have been delayed. I really hope you like it - and even though this chapter was short, I just wanted to post something cute (and I hope it turned out cute)

see you <3

Camping was new to Gaeul and Arrow, but that didn't mean they weren't having fun.

After all, after the movie, they started to pretend that they were dinosaurs – Arrow was an iguanodon and Gaeul was a carnotaurus – and ran around freely laughing and tickling each other as if they were attacking each other. The parents talked, but kept an eye on the kids because they didn't want them to get hurt or disappear around.

But there was this moment where they sat on the floor and took a deep breath as they tried to rest after running for half an hour. Arrow looked to the sky and said:

- I'm hungry.

Gaeul also looked up to the sky and hugged his knees, feeling his stomach growl. He then lay on the floor with his arms outstretched and muttered:

- I wanted to eat hot dogs.

Arrow chuckled.

- You always want to eat hot dogs.

- Because I like hot dogs. – then he sat down again – My appa bought sausage on a stick. Have you eaten?

- Yeah. Dad and Kangin took me to the market once to eat and then I ordered the sausage on a stick. Mine had cheese and fries.

- Mine too! – they giggled – Does your appa make sausage on a stick for us? His food is delicious.

- I'll ask. – Arrow stood up – Come with me, Gaeul. – and so Gaeul was also on his feet. The two ran to their parents and Arrow interrupted them – We want sausage on a stick, appa.

Hyukjae looked at Arrow with a raised eyebrow.

- And why?

- Because Gaeul likes sausage on a stick and so do I.

Then Daehyun said:

- That would be a good idea if we had brought a skillet to fry the corn dogs.

- But you didn't buy sausages when we were coming here, Daehyun?

- Oh, yeah. But the intention was not to fry them, but to roast them on the fire later. Isn't that what people do in camps?

Jihoon rolled his eyes and Donghae laughed, touching Hyukjae's shoulder and saying:

- Maybe you should put corn dogs on the menu and then we'd take Gaeul and Arrow to eat there.

- This is a good idea. – Hyukjae tapped his chin and looked at the boys – Let's do this: when we get back home, I'll prepare corn dogs for you. So Gaeul can sleep over at our house for a sleepover.

Arrow was excited by the idea and looked at Daehyun and Jihoon with that hope in his brown eyes. Gaeul's parents laughed and Daehyun said:

- Okay, okay. Gaeul can sleep at your house.

With that, the boys celebrated as if they had heard the best news. It was obvious that Arrow wanted Aisha to be there for one more sleepover, but he would invite her again as soon as she got back – and Gaeul could go too because now they were all best friends.

- And now how about we have lunch? – Donghae suggested and the children nodded – You played a lot today and need to replenish your energy.

With that, Gaeul and Arrow sat next to each other and were served delicious food. They were so hungry that they started eating without waiting for their parents to put food for themselves – but no one was going to scold the kids for it.

- Did you know, uncle Hae, that I'll be a carnotaurus when I grow up?

Donghae laughed.

- Oh, really? Will you have scary teeth?

- Yes, but I wanted Arrow to be a carnotaurus too.

Arrow frowned.

- I'll be just like that dinosaur that looks like my dad.

Donghae blushed when Hyukjae laughed and Daehyun and Jihoon pursed their lips.

- I don't look like a dinosaur, Arrow.

- You do, dad. – and when Donghae pretended to cry, Arrow stood up on the bench and hugged his father – It's a cute dinosaur, dad. You do not need to cry.

- Oh, Hae... You know that dinosaur is cool. – Hyukjae said and Donghae glared at him – And you are the cutest of all dinosaurs.

- If that's a compliment, I don't even want to hear the insults.

Hyukjae laughed and Jihoon said:

- Don't be so hard on yourself, Donghae. Sometimes Gaeul also wants Daehyun and I to be his dinosaur parents.

- Because we are all a dinosaur family. – Daehyun completed and everyone laughed – But being a dinosaur seems very exciting.

- I didn't want to be a dinosaur. – Donghae grumbled and crossed his arms, making Hyukjae and Arrow hug him – Why can't we be a tiger family?

Then Gaeul commented:

- That big-toothed tiger in the drawing that appa bought for me to watch.

Donghae almost whimpered when Arrow agreed, as he knew they were talking about Ice Age. And why did everything make him prehistoric?

- It's alright. You won. Can we eat now without everyone saying I'm old?

The adults burst into laughter and Arrow pecked Donghae's cheek, saying with all the innocence he had in his being:

- You're not old, dad. You're young like me and Gaeul.

Donghae looked at Gaeul and then at Arrow, then sighed and pulled out his plate so he could finally have lunch. That was a conversation he'd grown tired of – though he'd found it funny Arrow to mention that his father looked like Aladar.

Later Gaeul and Arrow were still pretending that they were dinosaurs while their parents talked about life matters. It was almost late
