Ft. Taehyun from TXT 🌠

"Dad, did you manage to find someone for the post you were advertising?" you asked your middle-aged father who was about to leave the house.
"No, Honey. Not yet. I still have to look through all the applications," he sighed.

You knew things weren't going very well on the farm these days, and it was hard on him. You could see it in his eyes and in the wrinkles that were forming on his forehead.

"I'll help you look through them tonight," you offered. It's not like you had anything else to do anyway, and you wanted to lift a bit of weight off his shoulders.
"Thanks, Honey. I'll see you later," he smiled and waved goodbye.

You waved back before turning around to find your mom.

"Mom? Are you in here?" you asked, peeking into the kitchen.
"Yes, Dear?" She turned around, apron wrapped around her slender frame and hands covered in batter. Compared to Dad, she still looked young and radiant, despite being a year older than him.
"What are you baking?" you asked. You were an absolute sucker for baked goods or anything dessert-like.

"Just some apple pie again," she sighed.
"Your apple pies are delicious, Mom. Don't worry about it," you smiled.
"I just wish I had other fruits to use from time to time," she laughed.
"Well that's one of the perks of an apple farm. An unlimited supply of apples!" you giggled.

"Was there something else you wanted to ask, Love?"
"Oh, yes. I just wanted to know if I could maybe go and ride Skedaddle for a bit?"

She smiled. "Of course! But just take your brother with you. Enjoy yourselves."
"Thanks, Mom!" You ran up to her and gave her a quick kiss on the cheek. "Have fun baking!"

You ran out of the kitchen and dashed up the stairs to fetch your twin brother, Taehyun, from his room.

Mom carried in two slices of her delicious apple pie for you and your dad. You were already busy scanning through the applications and to say the least, it was quite a tiring task. Mom knew just how to cheer you up.

"Thanks, Mom." You smiled at her, eagerly taking one plate for yourself and handing the other to your father.

You continued looking through the applications, occasionally taking a few bites of apple pie.

It was an application from a 20 year old guy that caught your eye. It had no photo attached though, but his details were quite impressive.

"You said you wanted someone young, right Dad?" you asked him, inspecting the guy's application details again.
"Yes. Why?"
"Well here's one from a Choi Jongho. He's 20 years old and seems capable." You showed your father the application.
"Hmm. Put him on the list of possible employees."

You awoke to the harsh sound of your bedroom door being pushed open, revealing Taehyun.
"Rise and shine, y/n!"
He pulled open the curtains that were supposed to shield your eyes from the blinding sunlight.

"Ah, Taehyun! Please close them," you whined and pulled the bed covers over your head.

He ignored your request and instead ripped the bed covers off of you.
"What is wrong with you?" you glared at your brother.
"You have to get up," he simply shrugged and walked away, dragging the covers with him.
"Kang Taehyun!" you yelled. He may be seven minutes older than you, but that didn't mean he could boss you around.

You chased after Taehyun.
"Didn't you listen when Dad said we were going to welcome the new guy today?" he asked, hands on hips.
"What?" Your eyes widened.
"Yes, now go get ready," Taehyun ordered.
"Give me my bed covers back first."
"How do I know you won't climb back into bed?"
