Bucket List ― Byun Baekhyun

Eating snacks from street stalls ✔️

It's like a memory stored way at the back of my mind, covered in fogs to when you told me to not try my best to take you to expensive restaurants. Or was it a statement you told me when we were friends that you don't expect your future boyfriend to pamper you to a costly and etiquette-filled night dinner.

Being mindful of that fact, the next thing other than a fancy dinner was to take a short food trip at the food market where the delicacies and dishes aren't as penny-pinching. I wished I had recorded how you were so joyous upon telling you of the plan.

It wasn't really an elaborate plan. To put it short it was just eat and pay and order another serving if we wanted more. I would have guessed that you'll take more than one serving of desserts since the sweet-tooth demon in you wasn't really a thing that can be tamed.

You thought I would just admire how you still looked beautiful while eating as if those food would be running away, right? Well, that wasn't the case because just like you, I enjoy to gobble up delicious food too.

Plus where else - besides home where mum or grandma's cooking are just the best - to get love-filled food that makes you feel so at place. As if it was the cook mum herself. The aroma seeping into our lungs sending signals throughout the body that were we at home, about to enjoy home-cooked food.

We didn't technically say it but from the looks of it, we had one hell of an eating contest. The fierce gaze in your eyes when I had more plates stacked, sticks collected and more then a dozen empty cups just shows you didn't want to loose eating lesser than I did.

Even in between the chomps and carnivorous bites, we still managed to share the food we ate. Not to make you feel weirded out but from those food shares, we did indirectly kiss a lot of times. Just saying.

In the end, we only spent half the notable large sum of money we brought. Plus, having to help you walk back because your legs were giving up on you. It wasn't a bewilderment that you made us stop at the convenience store to continue eating.

What made me extremely happy was I get a reason to kiss you on the cheek without you going bonkers on me. Like don't blame me, you had a bit of ketchup on that cheek of yours.
