In a cozy apartment that Tae and Kook called home, their laughter echoed through the walls. Life wasn't easy, but they found joy in the little things. Kook, with his sleeves rolled up, was preparing for another double shift at the restaurant, juggling bills and responsibilities. Tae, a diligent student, was working on his entrance exam to secure a scholarship for college...
Despite the challenges, their shared space was filled with love and camaraderie. Kook, while dropping Tae off at school, couldn't help but feel proud of his younger companion. Tae's maturity and dedication to their shared dreams left a warm glow in Kook's heart...
One evening, as they returned home, the aroma of instant noodles and laughter filled the air. Tae was seated at the dining table, books spread out, while Kook was frantically searching for the TV remote.
"Tae, have you seen the remote? I swear it's playing hide and seek with me again''... kook frowned
"Maybe it's tired of your action movies. I bet it's hiding in the kitchen, hoping for a change of genre''...tae chuckled didn't averted his gaze from his books..
"Hey, my action movies are a masterpiece! Besides, you always end up watching them with me''...kook scoffed
"Only because I'm a hostage in this apartment, forced to endure your questionable taste in films''..tae rolled his eyes at him
As the banter continued, Kook suddenly stopped and looked at Tae with a mischievous glint in his eye...
"Pillow fight?"...he suggested, holding up a cushion.
''You're on! But let me warn you, I've been practicing my pillow-fu''...tae giggled
And with that, the apartment turned into a battlefield of feathers and laughter. Pillows flew in every direction, and the two friends found joy in their playful skirmish.
Amidst the chaos, Kook managed to sneak in..
"You know, Tae, even if you're a pillow-fu master, you can't escape my charm''...he said laughing
"Charm? Please, I think I've built an immunity to it over the years''...tae rolled his eyes..
"You wound me, Tae. Here I am, working double shifts to pay the bills, and you repay me with such coldness''...kook pretended to be wounded, clutching his heart dramatically...
"Coldness? More like survival instinct. Your charm can be a dangerous weapon''...tae couldn't help but laugh..
As the pillow fight subsided, they collapsed on the couch, breathless but smiling...
"You know, despite our bickering and chaotic pillow fights, I'm really grateful for you. You make this struggle worthwhile''...tae looked at his friend and said..
"Likewise, Tae. I never thought sharing an apartment with someone could be this much fun. And hey, we're a killer team when it comes to chores''...kook grinned..
"True that. Who would've thought that doing dishes and folding laundry could be turned into a comedy routine?''...tae giggled..
"And the award for the best laundry folder goes to... Tae!"...kook pointed at tae...
"Thank you, thank you. I'd like to dedicate this award to all the mismatched socks out there. You're not alone!"....tae bowed theatrically
They burst into laughter, relishing the simple joys of their shared life. The struggles were real, but so was their friendship.
As the night wore on, with dimmed lights and cozy blankets, they sat on the balcony, gazing at the city below. Tae broke the silence...
"You know, Kook, one day we'll look back at this time and laugh at how we managed with instant noodles and a remote that constantly played hide and seek''...he said with a smile
"And we'll be proud of what we've achieved together. From pillow fights to college dreams, we've got this''...kook nodded with a sigh..
''bear?''...kook called out earning a humm sound
''can i hug yuh?''...he said looking at him while tae smiled and crawled to him and wrapped his arms around his neck while jungkook's hand traveled to other's waist, tae's head placed on his shoulder with close eyes, both sat with their eyes closed seeking warmth from each other with a contented smile...
And so, in their shared apartment, amidst laughter, struggles, and dreams, Tae and Kook forged a bond that went beyond bills and chores. They were each other's support, partners in mischief, and companions in the journey called life.
The following day dawned with a persistent rain tapping against the apartment windows. Tae and Kook, armed with umbrellas, braved the wet streets on their way to work and school. As they walked, Tae noticed a puddle and couldn't resist the temptation.
With a mischievous glint in his eye, Tae pointed at the puddle..
"Kook, I dare you to jump in''...tae said with excited tone like it's the most exciting thing to ever exist
"Jump in? Do I look like a five-year-old to you?"...kook scoffed
"Come on, where's your sense of adventure? It's just water!"...tae smirked
Kook hesitated for a moment, then gave in to Tae's infectious enthusiasm. With a dramatic leap, he landed in the puddle, sending water droplets flying in every direction.
"Well, that was graceful''...tae burst into laughter
Kook grinned, shaking off the excess water, Sometimes you just need to embrace the inner child. Life's too short to always act like a responsible adult...
As they continued their journey, their conversation shifted to more serious matters. Tae spoke up..
"Hey, Kook, are you managing okay with the double shifts? I know it's tough, and I don't want you burning out''...tae asked concerned
"It's a grind, but we're in this together, right? Besides, it's worth it when I see you working hard on your entrance exam. We're both chasing our dreams''...kook shrugged
"True. And your support means the world to me. I wouldn't have come this far without you by my side''...tae nodded appreciatively
"Likewise, my baby. We'll get through this storm, and when the sun comes out, it'll be even more rewarding''....kook playfully pulled his cheeks..
''tae yuh know, when yuh were small your cheeks use to be so squeezy and chubby''...kook chuckled
''and i always throwed my fist on yuh whenever yuh tried to bite them''..tae rolled his eyes while kook nodded laughing..
''your cheeks always looked so edible, so squeezy yuh know''...kook said again pulling his cheeks just to caress them later, tae looked up both made eye contact with each other, first one to break eye contact was tae who couldn't hold the intensity and coughed awkwardly..
''let's get going''...said kook holding tae's hand as always
''I am not a baby kook''...tae said chuckling pointing towards their holded hands..
''yuh will forever be my taetae baby''..kook grinned making other to smile, while both made their way to restaurant...
The rain continued throughout the day, casting a cozy ambiance in the apartment when they returned home. Kook, with wet hair and a towel around his shoulders, huddled on the couch with Tae.
"Nice hairdo, Kook. Did you take inspiration from a wet dog?"...tae couldn't help but to tease him
"At least I don't look like I've been electrocuted. Your hair is standing on end, Tae''...kook retorted
They both burst into laughter, reveling in the camaraderie that made even the rainy days brighter.
As evening approached, Tae immersed himself in his books while Kook prepared a simple dinner. The aroma of stir-fried vegetables wafted through the apartment, blending with the scent of rain-soaked earth.
"Tae, dinner's ready! I hope you're hungry because I might have gone a bit overboard with the cooking''....kook called out..
''Wow, Kook, you've outdone yourself. This looks amazing!"....tae emerged from his study corner, eyes lighting up at the sight of the spread
''Well, I figured we deserved a little treat. It's not every day we get to enjoy a home-cooked meal together''...kook grinned proudly
They sat at the table, sharing stories and savoring the meal, tae moaned at the taste and complimented him for the yummy dishes...
