Yeongsoo blinked in surprise but quickly recovered, a smile tugging at his lips. "Then I'll have to thank my dad for his predictions. Now with fate in the picture, Haeun and I will always be together," he said with a lighthearted tone.

Taekjoon laughed, shaking his head. "How's your dad these days, kid? We had a bit of a fallout, but I still consider him my good buddy."

Yeongsoo looked thoughtful for a moment. "He's ….doing well, though he hasn't mentioned the past much. Maybe he's still waiting for the right time to reach out," he replied, sensing the history behind Taekjoon's words. He couldn't tell him he had a fallout with his dad too.

"Stubborn as ever, huh? That's Hanuel for you," Taekjoon said, the fondness in his voice clear despite the history.

Haeun, who had been listening quietly, yawned and stretched on the couch. "All this talk of old buddies is making me sleepy. Can we eat already?"
