every summertime | lee sohee
007. heirloom pain β ramen therapy
three knocks hit the front door which immediately made y/n put her phone down. internally panicking after she sent her friends last minute texts before sohee arrived at her front door. putting on her fuzzy bunny slippers, she walked towards her front door and opened it to see sohee standing there with a smile on his face and matcha in both hands.
βsohee hi! come in,β she spoke before widening the door motioning for the boy to come in.
he stepped in through the front door and slid his shoes off, before following behind her, βthanks for inviting me over again yn! just let me know when you want to focus on your studying and i can always go,β sohee spoke
y/n shook her head and smiled, βno need! you wouldnβt be bothering me at all! if anything youβre helping me stay sane because i have so much to study,β she replied before looking at the matcha in soheeβs hands, βoh my goodness that matcha looks so heavenly, wait is there a pink bow on it?β
sohee chuckled, βyeah they were having this event at this matcha place my friend recommended, i thought you would like it,β he spoke as he handed it to her seeing how her eyes lit up at the delicious green beverage
βthank you so much again!! you really did not need to get me this! i told you i didnβt mind making your drink seriously,β y/n said as she held the drink in her hand admiring it
βno no, i insisted anyways, and itβs the least i couldβve done! i owe you for last time too! the sandwich was not enough,β sohee replied smiling at the girl in front of him
βokay well, shall we make some ramen? iβm in dire need of food after studying alreadyβ y/n suggested after taking a quick picture of her drink
the boy nodded in agreement before they headed off and started making their meal.
y/n started off by grabbing the ramen pot from her cabinet and putting warm water in it before setting it on the stovetop. she turned on the heat and turned to sohee, βwhich ramen do you want, shin red or jin ramen?β
βhmmm, whatever you prefer, i like them both honestlyβ he replied
the girl hummed in agreement, βokay, iβll just randomly pick then cause i feel the same way,β she spoke before opening one of the ramen packs and putting the seasoning in the water first.
βsoooo should i ask more about the backstory of why you work so hard or,β sohee asked before taking a sip of his matcha, leaning against the kitchen counter in front of the girl, βand iβm trying to asking in the least awkward way possible i swear, i just want to let you know iβm here for you and iβm willing to listen,β he rambled
y/n smiled before she turned around to face him, βwell i mean thereβs not much to it i feel like. just my inner thoughts and overthinking mainly, but have you ever felt like youβre constantly living in the shadow of someone else?β she replied before turning back around to quickly put the ramen noodle block in the pot
βhmm, iβm not sure if i can personally fully relate to that, but i do have an older sister who i feel like is doing way better than me all the time,β sohee responded before walking up closer to y/n and the stove top, βthis smells so good i didnβt even realize how hungry i got,β he added on as he looked at the ramen that was simmering
βoh yeah i definitely get that feeling because of my older brother, heβs always been the favorite. even if my parents have never outright said it, i can always feel it. he was always the best growing up and i always tried to catch up by excelling in my studies but, my parents always favored him,β y/n spoke as she mixed the ramen around with her chopsticks, βi always thought it was interesting too how my parents favored my brother especially since he was good at extracurriculars, donβt even get me started on his dancing,β
sohee looked at the girl next to him, βyou have a brother? i didnβt know,β he spoke
βyeah heβs like a couple years older than me, but he also goes to smu. you might know him actually, heβs an exercise science major,β she replied before grabbing a spoonful of the ramen broth and brought it towards sohee, βwant a taste to see if its fine?β
the boy blew on it before taking a sip from the spoon, βmm itβs good to me!β sohee spoke before looking at y/n again, βyeah maybe i might know him. but regardless iβm sorry that you feel that way and have constantly felt that way around your brother. you donβt deserve that, youβre such an amazing girl,β
y/n smiled, βthank you sohee, it means a lot to me hearing that,β
βof course y/n, you really are amazing and i hope you never forget that,β sohee said while smiling back at her
