CAKE INGREDIENTS SHOPPING'S

Lousy. That was what Jung Jaehyun felt now. He was at the house of someone he met at the supermarket. Who else if not Aya Park.
Actually, this is a solicitation from the brother βChanyeol Park. The man asked Jaehyun to stop by his house. Surely by permission of mistress Jung βMother Jaehyun. It turns out that Chanyeol knows Jaehyun's nuclear family including his mother.
"How's your cousin, Oh Sehun? It's been a long time since I've heard from him" Chanyeol asked Jaehyun.
While Aya was tidying up the groceries she had bought earlier. Every now and then he glanced towards the dining table where there were Jaehyun and Chanyeol. "What are they talking about?" muttered.
"Sehun hyung's news is good. He now runs a family company in Germany. Ah, next week he will be here, hyung," Jaehyun said.
Chanyeol nodded slowly. "You have Sehun's cell phone number? Please send it to me later."
"Ah, I hear you're a chef now.hm I'm curious to taste your cooking. That's if you don't mind, Jaehyun?" sneer lightly while smiling.
Jaehyun did not understand what Chanyeol said. However, because Chanyeol's request was easy for him so Jaehyun agreed to it. "If you allow me, I'll use your kitchen..."
"Just relax, you can use it. Also, the cooking ingredients are there, right?" sahut Chanyeol while smiling ignorantly. "Here, there's Aya in the kitchen."
It wasn't Chanyeol's name if it didn't have much sense to bring his sister closer to Jaehyun. Actually they both - Aya and Jaehyun had known when they were little. However, Jung's family soon moved away.
Therefore, it was not difficult for Jaehyun to have access to approach Aya. Because it has received approval from Chanyeol-according to the conversation Jaehyun and Chanyeol while in the supermarket earlier.
A few hours earlier, at the supermarket.
"Jaehyun? You're Jung Jaehyun, right?" greet Chanyeol after making sure that the man in front of him is someone he knows.
Jaehyun scrunched his forehead. "really. I'm sorry who are you?" He was trying to remember the man who knew him. His face was familiar, but who? Thought Jaehyun.
"So right! You're Jaehyun, Sehun's cousin!" chanyeol clapped his hands once. "It's me, Chanyeol. Chanyeol Park your neighbor first. Ah, you were so small back then, maybe you forgot me."
Wait for. Jaehyun began to recall a small piece of his past that had a neighbor with the Park clan. Ah, there's no mistaking it. It must be this man in front of him. "I remember. You're Chanyeol hyung! Jeez hyung! You're a boy Sehun hyung's age who's afraid of insects, right?" repelled.
"Aigoo, Jaehyun! Don't remember my disgrace!" chanyeol Protest. "Ah, you know Aya, don't you? Aya Park, my sister." Chanyeol glanced at Aya who was standing not far from him.
Jaehyun nodded slowly. He gawked in disbelief that that Aya was the little girl he used to like. Oh my God, the world is so narrow! "He's your brother hyung?"
"Yes. Wh why? Don't tell me you like it. I remember very well, that you asked Sehun to give your regards to my sister."
"Come on hyung, it's over. Don't tease me!" jaehyun Protest.
Chanyeol. "It turns out even now you still like it huh? What if I help you? An offer you won't get again" he said.
It's just, Chanyeol does not want Aya-his sister was in a relationship with Jeno. In any case, Jeno is Aya's best friend from childhood. Chanyeol likes Jeno's older sister. It is not funny that brothers and sisters have relationships with other brothers.
"You sure hyung? But, Aya already has a lover. My co-worker at La Bosseade, chef Jeno."
"I know, but how would it be if I only bless Aya with you? After all, the two of them were just pretending. Come on, you don't know!" sahut Chanyeol and tell the truth.
Jaehyun was stunned by the facts. It turns out that Aya and Jeno are just running a challenge. Which meant that there was still a great chance for him to get close to Aya.
"So...my chance is still great hyung?" ask Jaehyun.
Chanyeol nodded while smiling. "Hi darling. Come here, you two know each other, right? Oppa also knew Jaehyun."
Aya was surprised not to play. How can Chanyeol and Jaehyun know each other. "I mean oppa?"
"You forgot? Jaehyun was our neighbor first. He's a boy who sends his regards to you through Sehun. You remember Sehun, don't you?"
Again, Aya was shocked. A sehun? Oh Sehun's? Obviously he knew her. How not? Sehun was the young man Aya liked before she knew Mingyu. Because after Jaehyun's move, Sehun still often played to his house.
"You're seriously oppa? So... Are you Sehun oppa's cousin Jaehyun?" ask Aya to make sure.
Very unexpected. Until Aya is made to gawk at the facts she just got. It was as if the world was turning in the same direction. Meeting people in his past, making him nostalgic again.
Where Aya, a five-year-old little boy liked Oh Sehun who was twelve years old at the time. What a moment Aya will always remember as her first love story.

"Carrots already, hmm what else hasn't?" muttered Aya while plucking her index finger on the chin.
Jaehyun approached Aya. "What do you want to cook?" tanyakanya.
"O, jesus! You're just surprised!" exclaimed Aya, jumped in shock. He stood up and faced Jaehyun.
Jaehyun was also surprised because Aya's position was very close to him. He even held his breath in nervousness.
Exhaling slowly. Jaehyun took a step back because he saw Aya feeling uneasy. "Sorry to surprise you."
Aya nodded as she sighed softly and circulated her gaze in all directions to relieve her nervousness.
"What do you want to cook if I may know? Can I help you?" jaehyun asked in the end after venturing out.
"I'm also confused. Better cook what? Ah, when you were a kid, didn't you really like making cookies with your eomma?" sahut Aya's.
Jaehyun nodded. "Yes right. You know where it came from? Did you peek at me then, eoh?" He deliberately made the awkward atmosphere that was happening slightly melt.
"Just kid! I know from Sehun oppa. He brought me a cookie and it turned out to be yours."
"I thought you were a stalker. Or put it this way.how about we make a pastry for a friend to drink tea. It must be very delicious in winter like this" Jaehyun advised.
I put my finger into the air. "Call! Then I'll buy the ingredients."
"no need. Let me buy it. Nearby is a minimarket, right?" sahut Jaehyun's.
"Do you know what materials are needed?" aya asked subconsciously that she was talking to whom.
Jaehyun chuckled and smiled towards Aya. "You forgot? If making good food is my field? Of course I know all the ingredients."
"Good I forgot!" aya replied with a carefree laugh.
The girl began to feel comfortable while conversing with Jaehyun. So even with the male owner of the dimple and the cook, he got the opportunity to get closer to Aya - his childhood friends are arguably short but memorable.
The minimarket Aya home area. The girl was looking for ingredients to make cookies as agreed - Jaehyun.
While the man - Jaehyun, was pushing trolly behind Aya. Already twice in this one day, Jaehyun accompanied someone shopping.
Though Jaehyun was very lazy, only if it was not for the process of approaching Aya he would not want to walk back and forth while pushing the iron object.
With the origin Aya put some flour into the trolly. A serious face, also a frown on the forehead like thinking hard, defines that he is having difficulty in choosing which ingredients to use to make a cake.
Jaehyun, behind Aya just shook his head slowly while shaking his smile. Inwardly he spoke that what Aya chose was to make chicken flour, not cake.
Just as Aya was about to take another one of the flour, Jaehyun's hand held it by holding the girl's wrist.
"Why Jae?" aya asked as she turned towards Jaehyun, don't forget the frown that was confused.
Jaehyun smiled and lowered his hand. "You took the wrong flour Ay. Take a look, this is to make chicken flour," he answered while taking one of the wheat flour in the trolly and showing it to Aya.
They both agreed to call with non-formal greetings.
"It's weird to know that you were my childhood friend. It's short but I remember it well. Can I just call you Aya?" jaehyun asked, starting a conversation.
Aya did not answer directly. He just doesn't want to be close to someone because there is a compulsion. But, what's wrong? After all, Jaehyun was no longer a stranger to him. "May, then now there's no need for a formal greeting?"
"Oh my God, Jae! Why am I so foolish as to not be able to tell which flour to make pastries and chicken flour!" Aya cursed me herself and looked down embarrassed.
Jaehyun even chuckled at Aya's behavior like that. "Gosh Aya. Naturally, because the packaging is almost the same. Here, let me help you. I will choose which materials are needed. You just have to follow me and see it."
"Alright Jae.sorry," said Aya then raised her head and looked at Jaehyun while grinning widely.
Oh God! Jaehyun could no longer hold back the beatings in his heart. Seeing Aya that close made her happy, at the same time unpleasant.
Because Jaehyun arrived - suddenly remembered his mission with Kim Mingyu. Will this initial goal be wrong? But, now he really put his heart on the girl.
