happened to be going to visit Hong Kong anyways.
she gasps and opens her arms! "Yi didi! Come to jie jie's arms!" She beamed.
jumps. He didn't even know she was here! But since she was asking and probably wouldn't let up until he did, he gave her the hug.
hums in delight, cuddling into his arms. She paused and peered up at him. "Did you get bigger from the last time I saw you, aru?"
shakes his head. "No, no. I don't think so."
blinks at him, bringing hands to her face. "Aiyaah... you're all growing too much! Shrink and become cuter, aru."
huffs slightly at that. "I'm cute enough at this height." He says, waving a hand.
she folds her arms with a frown. "How do you expect me to carry you when you're that big, aru?"
shakes his head at that. "You don't need to carry me, I can walk on my own, you know.'
hangs her head at the blatant rejection. "F-fine, aru.." She crosses her arms and turns away from him.
pats her shoulder. "I'm still your little brother. But I'm not a baby."
pouts at him. "Aruu.. I just want to cuddle with my didi, but he says he's too big now." Her face grows unamused.
shrugs. "Ahh, well. If you insist then I might let you."
fans herself with her hand. "... That doesn't sound too promising, aru. Would you be mad if jie jie hugs you a lot?"
taps his chin. "Well, that depends."
pauses and looks to him. Now there are conditions?! "Depend on what, aru?"
shrugs. "You can't do it all the time. You need to leave time for others to hug me."
sighs a little, crossing her arms. "Like who, aru?"
simply, "Like..Heung Lan?"
couldn't argue with that. "... Does she like to hug you as much as I do, aru?"
rolls her eyes a little and waves her hand at him. "Fine, fine, aru .. if you don't want me to hug you. Would you like to help me cook_
nods. "I'll cook with you."
clasps her hands together. "Wonderful, aru!" She grabs his wrist and takes him into the kitchen._
"How do you feel about sesame buns?"
follows along, not that he has a choice. "Well, that does sound good."
hums and ties a rather embarrassing apron around him. "What do you want inside of it?"
looks at the apron, but, well, he didn't want to stain his clothes. "I don't mind."
sighs a little. She was a bit unsure herself so she asked. She turns to her cabinets and_
pulls out whatever she needed for the red bean mix.
watches her. "What did you decide?"
turns to him. "Red bean, aru. It was all of your favorite when you were younger ~" She smiles to herself in amusement_
"Maybe you will turn into children if I feed it to you."
smiles at that. "That is my favorite....but I'm not turning into a child." He says.
giggles softly and hands him a bowl to stir. "I had to try, aru ~ you're so mean to jie jie."
takes the bowl and stirs it. "You treat me like a helpless baby, and I am not one."
puts hands on her hips. "What if I just like being a doting older sister, aru?" She was being stubborn about this.
can be stubborn, too! He sets down the bowl and crosses his arms. "I like being treated like an adult."
decides to use her pouty lips at him. "I know you are, but you didn't like jie jie showing you love and affection, aru?"
stares at the bowl. "...Maybe." He does like attention.
hangs her head once more, almost wanting to tear up from such cruel treatment.
sighs and pats her shoulder. "Don't be like that!"
looks up at him. "Fine. If you want to be treated like an adult, then you will be treated like one!" She sticks her tongue_
pokes her cheeks. "Now you're acting like the baby."
makes a face at him. "Since you're the adult here, go on and baby me, aruu.."
ruffles her hair, grinning a bit. "Baby Chun Yan..."
lets her hair get ruffled for a moment before brushing his hands away. ".. Too cruel to me, aru.." She folds her arms,_
turning her back towards him.
sighs and shakes his head. "Alright, alright. What do you want?"
turns to him, giving him her most charming smile. "Your bubble tea, aru ~"
waves a hand. "Alright, alright, I'll give you bubble tea."
seems satisfied now. "Can I have extra boba in it, aruu~? Qing?" She stands, grabbing his wrist to tug him.
nods. "Okay, but we should finish making the buns first."
jumps and rushes back to her sesame buns, doing her best not to burn them. "This is your fault for being so distracting, aru!" She whines.
laughs a bit. "I didn't do anything!"
whines softly at him. This girl was a little too spoiled for her age. "Yes you diiid ~ you were rejecting me, aru."
sighs loudly. "What did you want me to do? I wasn't really rejecting you."
him a teasing smile, waving her hand. "Nooothing, aru. Your bubble tea will make me all better!"
nods. "Alright, alright." He takes a dumpling and sticks it in his mouth before taking off his apron.
claps happily. "You're so sweet, aruu." She starts skipping ahead, excited for her amazing bubble tea.
eats a dumpling as they walk.
sways as she hums along. Then, she turns to him. "Yi didi? How long has it been since we all had dinner together, aru?"
shrugs. "It's been a while, hasn't it."
frowns at that response. "Too long, aru. Should I request a dinner for all of us to eat together ~ ?"
shrugs. "Who would be 'all of us'?" He asks.
puts her arms out as if showing a visual of how many people she wants. "All of Asia, aru! .. Even the other ones!"
nods. "Well, we can try that, I suppose."
raises her eyebrow at the other. "Such enthusiasm, aru. ... Please save some for me." Her face dropped, seeming less excited.
waves a hand. "Oh! No, no, really, it's a good idea. But Heung lan has been sick...."
eyes widen in surprise. "What?! Why, why didn't they tell me, aru?!" She bites her sleeve with a whine.
shrugs. "Maybe they don't know yet. I only know because she was in her room rather than on my couch..." He sighs.
frowns and bites her lip. "Aruu .. I want to see her to make sure she's fine .."
waves a hand. "She's fine, I promise."
