"Say, '주세요,'" Jaemin teased with a mischievous grin, holding the pacifier just out of reach. "형 will give it to you if you say, '주세요'."

The two-year-old Jisung blinked up at him, his tiny hands reaching out in protest. But, following the playful instruction, he dutifully repeated, "주세요."

Instead of handing it over, Jaemin squealed in delight, his heart completely stolen. "Oh my gosh, that head tilt! So cute!"

Jisung frowned, his brows knitting in mild frustration as Jaemin still didn't give him the pacifier. "주세요~," he tried again, this time cupping his chubby cheeks and tilting his head even further, as if performing for an invisible audience.

Jaemin collapsed dramatically onto the couch, clutching his heart as if he'd been struck. "This is too much! You're killing me with cuteness, Jisunggie."

"Jason, just give him his baba," Nara called from across the room when she heard Jisung whined in frustration, rolling her eyes but chuckling at the scene.

"Fine, fine," Jaemin said, finally relenting and placing the pacifier into Jisung's waiting hand. "But only because I don't think I can survive another level of adorableness."

Jisung popped the pacifier into his mouth and waddled off to lay down with Haechan and Shotaro, who also turned, leaving Jaemin grinning like a proud older brother.

"I told you not to tease him today," Nara playfully warned, her tone light but her gaze fixed on Jaemin as she approached. Without missing a beat, she poked his waist, eliciting a surprised giggle from the 24 year old.

"Hey!" Jaemin protested half-heartedly, trying to dodge her next playful jab but failing miserably. "You just can't resist, can you?" Nara teased, crossing her arms but smiling at his sheepish grin.

"I couldn't help it! He's too cute!" Jaemin admitted, his eyes sparkling as he defended himself, grinning from ear to ear like a kid caught with his hand in the cookie jar.

Nara shook her head, letting out a soft chuckle. "One day, he's going to figure out how to tease you back." Jaemin gasped dramatically, placing a hand over his chest. "Me? Teased by him? Never! I'm the master!"

"Uh-huh," Nara replied, clearly unconvinced. "We'll see about that."

"Fine, but until then..." Jaemin trailed off, glancing toward Jisung, who was now lying down with his pacifier and plushie in place. "I'll take my chances. It's worth it." Nara rolled her eyes but couldn't suppress her own grin.

"누나... Can you cook some kimchi jjigae for me?" Haechan’s voice came through the call, his tone unusually innocent and sweet yet unmistakably mischievous, even at 2:30 in the morning.

Nara groaned on the other line, burying her face into her pillow. “Didn’t you just have it yesterday?” she mumbled, her voice laced with exhaustion.

“But the one I had yesterday can’t even compare to yours~,” Haechan whined dramatically, dragging out the last word. “Please, 누나! Just this once?”

Her patience wore thin as the whining continued for a solid three minutes. “알아요,” she finally caved, her tone a mix of irritation and affection. “I’ll come over with the ingredients later in the morning. 알아?”
