Sangeon's eyes were fixed on the movie playing in the tv screen in front of him, his back resting against a pillow he stole from his mother's room to sit on the rug of their living room. Meanwhile, back in the kitchen, Yoon was washing the plates her and her brother recently used for the small feast of Korean Barbecue their mother spoiled them with for Christmas. However, she herself wasn't able to attend since she had already said yes to working a shift late at night and wouldn't be back until 12.
After drying the last bowl, Yoon washed her hands and helped herself to the last piece of her favorite side dish. She finished up cleaning the kitchen, treating herself with a blue Powerade she hid from her mom at the very back of the refrigerator.
Ding!
Yoon's brows furrowed at the unexpected text message since she never got any. And for a moment, her eyes widened in hopes it wasn't the gas station lady realizing she was being a creep online. She inhaled deeply and fetched her phone. Once she read who it was from, she sighed softly in relief. But then she blinked as she made her way to join her brother in the movie, not sure how to respond or what was the correct way of responding. She munched on the junk food she had gotten earlier, leaving Yasha on read for 20 minutes as she debated what to send back. One moment she was typing, the next she stopped and deleted what she was going to say. She felt herself sink into the couch before finally replying back: Thank you :). But immediately, she deleted it and sent: You too!
"uuuughhhh..." Yoon stared at her screen and deleted the other message before replying safely with a smiling emoji, a thumbs up, and a Santa Claus emoji.
