*ding dong* “Mingukkie~ Go place this on the table over there, okay? Noona will just get the door.” you said as you handed a batch of freshly baked French macarons to your 3-year old cousin. “Ne~”

“Oh, heeey~” you greeted as you let Jinyoung in. “You can drop your stuff in the-” he cut you off with a bone-crushing hug. “Can’t. Breathe.” you gasped. “Sorry- ow!” Jinyoung suddenly leaped away from you. “Why are you hurting my noona!” Minguk yelled as he continued to hit Jinyoung’s leg with his toy robot. “Mingukkie~ Jinyoungie wasn’t hurting me. He was giving noona a hug.” you explained as you take the toy robot from his tiny hands. “I’m sorry. I just really missed your noona.” Jinyoung pleaded putting his arms up in defense. Minguk blinked his eyes at Jinyoung “Ajeossi… nuguseyo?” “M-MWO?! AJEOSSI?! NAEGA?!” Jinyoung bellowed as his eyes widened into saucers. Minguk hid behind you. “Ya, don’t raise your voice. You’re scaring him.” you said as you tried to stifle your laughter. “Right…” he said in defeat. Jinyoung knelt down to Minguk’s level and explained “Sorry about that.

You’re leaving me with that little brat?!” Jinyoung complained but you already managed to drag him inside the kitchen. “Come on. He’s just a kid besides I’ll only be gone for a little while. The grocery’s just a block away.” you try to assure him that he’ll do just fine. He gulped but started to slowly approach Minguk who was humming one of his favorite nursery rhymes.

As soon as you got back, you hear screaming. You ran to the kitchen to see what the commotion was. You spot them pulling and messing each other’s hair. Minguk was pulling Jinyoung’ hair while Jinyoung tried get back at Minguk by messing his Minguk’s hair. “Hey, you guys, cut it out.” you asked nicely but neither of them are listening so you finally shout “Ya! That is it! You both need a time out!” The two of them finally stopped and gawked at you. “Go sit in the living room. I better not hear a sound from either of you.” you warned as they both
