After some negotiating with Jeno, Jaemin successfully made him agree to his generous offer.
Although Jeno had told him he can help as he's always grateful for it, he can still be stubborn and change his mind last minute, guilt bubbling up in his gut for hassling Jaemin.
The offer is simple: Jaemin will be joining them for dinner more often now, slowly but surely.
Of course not every night, maybe some day though. But for now, perhaps three or four times a week. Could be two if things aren't peaceful or their schedules are packed.
Which brings us here tonight, Jaemin standing in front of Jeno's main house door waiting patiently for someone to answer the door and kindly let him in.
Jeno had went home earlier than him, Jaemin didn't need to question him that much anymore when the brunet man comes by his office to announce his leave, kissing him goodbye with that endearing sweet smile.
The only time Jaemin asks him is when he looks stressed and worried, lips curled down into a frown as he rushes off after bidding goodbyes.
Unbeknownst to him on what's happening inside Jeno's house, the brunet man is currently drying his hands on his crooked apron and rushes to the door.
"Jaemin, good evening." Exhaling deeply, Jeno smiles faintly as he steps aside letting the elder man in.
"Good evening, love." Smiling back, they share a quick yet sweet kiss before Jeno pushes him away gingerly on his chest.
"Hold on, I'm cooking something." Flashing him a sheepish smile, Jeno runs back to the kitchen to check on the food.
Jaemin follows a second later, peering over Jeno's shoulder to see what he was preparing for dinner. Giggling at his slight struggle, "here, let me help you."
It's cliché, some might say.
But you can't deny how absolutely amazing it feels to have that fluttery feeling with those butterflies being awaken just by an affectionate physical gesture by your lover.
Blushing, Jeno mumbles a thank you as he takes a platter for the food. Jaemin glances at the empty dining table and frowns, "who's preparing the table?"
"Oh, that would be me." Jeno answers him calmly, not meeting his eyes as he's carefully pouring the food on the platter.
"What about the kids?" Jeno pauses just in time before the food starts spilling on the edges of the platter, placing the pot down and covers it up since there's still leftovers.
He purses his lips, "I tried calling them and asked for their help..."
"And what was their reasons for not helping their Papa who just got back from a tiring day at work and has to prepare food for everyone?" Jeno gulps at Jaemin's honesty.
He doesn't blame him, he can see where Jaemin is coming from.
Jaemin is known to be well-mannered and strict. Yet is also very kind and understanding to others.
Jaemin grew up in a household like that, when he was young he didn't understand it and thought it was stupid.
But now, as a grown adult. He is thankful and doesn't regret his parents' discipline on him as he grew up.
