Treats? do I look like your pet??

Haeun nodded thoughtfully as he bit into a dumpling. "That sounds like a good idea. Dr. Choi's been around forever. He used to scold me for skipping check-ups, but he always knew what was wrong even before I did."

Yeongsoo leaned on the counter, watching Haeun eat with a small smile. "He sounds like someone who really cares."

"Yeah, he's practically family at this point," Haeun replied, grabbing his chopsticks again to pick up another dumpling and placing it in Yeongsoo's bowl. "You'd like him. He's straightforward, no nonsense. A bit like you."

"Is that a compliment?" Yeongsoo raised a brow, smirking as he bit into the dumpling.

Haeun chuckled, nodding. "Yeah, definitely a compliment."

There was a comfortable silence for a moment, as Haeun stared at the beef short ribs that had been honey glazed. Noticing this Yeongsoo smiled and picked up the knife, cutting it into smaller pieces and placing it into Haeun's bowl.
