Third person's pov

In the soft glow of candlelight, Taehyung broke the tranquil silence, asking, "Where is everyone? I haven't seen anyone all evening."

Jungkook, seated beside Taehyung, replied, "Beomgyu has gone to a sleepover at his friend's, Mom, aunt, and Grandma all have gone shopping, and Uncle and Dad went to meet some old friends. Grandma said not to wait for dinner. Dad and Uncle were going to have dinner at the friend's house while grandma and all would eat something outside. Beomgyu has gone for a sleepover, so he will have dinner there."

Their voices mingled with the subtle crackling of the candles and the distant hum of the neighborhood, creating an intimate atmosphere that seemed to amplify the quietude of the house. The absence of the usual familial hustle and bustle allowed them to revel in the simplicity of each other's company. The flickering candle flames cast dancing shadows on the walls, and the faint scent of the scented candles added a touch of nostalgia to the air. The absence of others created an opportunity for them to explore the quietude of the evening, deepening the connection that had been blossoming throughout the day.

Taehyung asked, "So... what should we do for dinner?"

Jungkook answered, "I don't know. Order takeout or something?"

Taehyung suggested, "Can I cook?"

Jungkook widened his eyes, "You can cook?"

Taehyung nodded, "I try to in my free time. It's a hobby of mine."

Jungkook exclaimed, "I would love to eat food made by you."

Excitement filled the air as they made their way to the kitchen. The warm glow of the oven light illuminated the room, creating a cozy atmosphere. Jungkook perched on the counter, watching with genuine interest as Taehyung skillfully moved around the kitchen, gathering ingredients and preparing to showcase his culinary skills. The sizzling sounds and savory aromas wafting through the air heightened the anticipation of the delightful meal to come, making it a memorable evening filled with shared laughter and the joy of discovering hidden talents.

As Taehyung moved around the kitchen, he gathered ingredients and utensils, creating an atmosphere filled with the clinking of pots and pans. The soft glow from the candles cast a warm and cozy ambiance in the kitchen. Jungkook observed with keen interest as Taehyung navigated through the kitchen, effortlessly handling the various ingredients.

Taehyung's movements were fluid and confident, reflecting his familiarity with the culinary arts. He seemed to have a natural flair for cooking, occasionally humming a soft tune as he worked. Jungkook couldn't help but appreciate the way Taehyung's passion for cooking brought a different kind of glow to his eyes.

As the aroma of the cooking filled the air, Jungkook's stomach growled, betraying his hunger. Taehyung chuckled, "Hungry already?"

Jungkook nodded sheepishly, "I can't help it. The smell is too tempting."

Taehyung flashed a playful smile, "Well, you're in for a treat."

The clattering sounds and the tantalizing aroma continued to fill the kitchen as Taehyung expertly prepared a delicious meal. Jungkook couldn't wait to taste the result of Taehyung's culinary prowess.

The sizzling sounds from the pan and the rich aromas of spices permeated the air as Taehyung skillfully crafted a culinary delight. Jungkook observed with fascination as Taehyung moved gracefully around the kitchen, effortlessly handling the ingredients. The kitchen seemed to come alive with the rhythmic clattering of utensils and the occasional hum of a tune Taehyung couldn't resist.

Intrigued, Jungkook slid off the counter and approached Taehyung, offering to help. Taehyung, appreciating the company, handed him a few ingredients to chop. Their hands brushed occasionally, creating subtle yet electrifying sparks that neither of them acknowledged but secretly relished.

As the aroma intensified, so did their conversation. Taehyung shared stories of his experiments in the kitchen, his culinary successes, and inevitable disasters. Jungkook listened with genuine interest, laughter occasionally escaping his lips.

The kitchen banter transitioned seamlessly into a more intimate exchange. They talked about their dreams, passions, and even their fears, forging a connection that went beyond the delicious aroma filling the room. Taehyung felt a warmth in his heart, realizing that this unexpected evening turned into something extraordinary.

Taehyung grinned, saying, "Check this out! I made Chole Bhature for dinner."

Jungkook, looking intrigued, asked, "What's that? I've never heard of it before."

Taehyung explained, "It's an Indian dish with chickpeas and this bread called Bhature. I learned it from an Indian friend."

Jungkook nodded, saying, "Alright, let's give it a try."

As they sat at the table, the delicious aroma filled the room. Taehyung served the dish, and Jungkook eyed it with interest. The vibrant colors and tempting smells made their simple dining space feel special.

Taehyung encouraged Jungkook to take a bite, and as they tasted the chickpeas and bread, a mix of spices exploded in their mouths. The unfamiliar flavors intrigued Jungkook, and he found himself enjoying the unique experience.

In between bites, Taehyung shared stories about the dish and his adventures in the kitchen. The conversation flowed, making the meal more than just a dinner—it became a shared moment of discovery.

As they finished the last bites, the satisfaction on their faces spoke volumes. The simple setting of their home transformed into a place where not only food but also stories and laughter were savored.
