"You're out of your mind!?" and "You're drunk!? Like me!?", Those were the two types of reactions Jungkook received after suggesting the most irrelevant idea to ever exist.

"What's wrong—No! Keep that flip flop down. You ain't my mama to beat me with flip flops!" He regarded the footwear as something only his mum could use. Respecting his sentimental attachments, I surrendered my weapon.

"Oh, everything is wrong with it. It's worse than having coconut haircut!" I pointed my fingers towards his hair that unusually suit him really well. "Give me some time and watch my beautiful brain effortlessly beat your useless one."

"Just for the record, asking you to do this job was my idea so the one with a useless brain here is this guy." He pointed at Taehyung, who was beside us a few moments ago but as for now, he was enjoying laying on the treadmill, trying different poses, while the machine threw his body back several times.

"Fuck!" Taehyung cursed loudly while getting off the treadmill and rushing towards us while pulling his hair out of frustration. "I forgot my child's birthday!"

Jungkook too was as confused as me at first but after some mental calculations, he experienced the same trauma. "Shoot! He must be feeling so bad! I too forgot his birthday." Jungkook gasped loudly. I nudged him to explain the situation to me too. "It's Tannie's birthday today and we forgot!"

"Oh, God! I gotta go and wish him. He must be so mad at me!" Taehyung cried out while making a run towards the glass door and wiping a lone tear in the process. I don't know if he's normally like this or it was all because of the alcohol that somehow didn't stop embracing his senses yet.

"Oh, oh, wait! I'll come with you too." Jungkook followed behind the drunk guy and was almost out, leaving me alone when I had enough of this shit.

"Yeah, your dog's birthday is more important than your bitch—daughter getting an idea of our façade? Great going guys!" I looked at them in disbelief as they grudgingly walked back and stared down at their feet.

"As it's Yeontan's birthday, why don't we do something good?" Taehyung asked and I hissed at his stubborn self. "What I mean is... what if you do something. You know, Taehee loves Yeontan the most so maybe doing something for him will change her thinking?"

"It isn't a bad idea, what do you say, Y/N?" Jungkook asked while looking at me. There was no contemplating or overthinking to it because it was the most appropriate suggestion I heard in a while.

"Yup, it's quite impressive of you, Taehyung's brain." I tiptoed to ruffle his hair and he gave me the worst look for petting him. "The only issue is... what will I do? Like I'm kinda good for nothing..." I murmured the degrading part to myself.

"Think of the things you'll like your owner to do for you on your birthday if you were a dog," Jungkook suggested before drifting to deep thoughts that a dog may have too. "Think like a dog..."

"Sorry, I wasn't gifted with the talent of thinking like a dog." I sarcastically said before rolling my eyes and starting to think from Yeontan's point of view secretly.

"If I was Yeontan, I would want... A bitch..." Taehyung thoughtfully expressed his lewd desires. "Maybe human love won't be enough for me and I would crave for love from someone like me."

"But doesn't he have Taehee already?" My brain asked but I kept the joke for personal entertainment only as my repeated calling Taehee bitch would've surely offended Taehyung. "I can't adjust with more dogs so let's stick to buying him a lot of dog food."

"He's a dog, not a pig." Jungkook reminded me in a 'duh' tone.

"I know, that's why I said dog food and not Jungkook's food." I rolled my eyes while he mentally prepared for his next comeback but Taehyung cut him off.

"If you guys are over with bickering then excuse me as I have to go and wish him." Taehyung hurriedly ran to the door and we followed behind shortly after having a staring competition and then breaking into fits of laughter for acting childishly.

"Happy birthday to you~ Happy birthday to you~ Happy birthday Yeontan-ssi~ happy birthday to you~" Unlike the other two guys, I was much more monotonous while singing the lyrics they rewrote for the apparent birth-boy.

"Woof!" The single-worded reply to our joyous birthday wishes made the guys break into uwus~ while I cringed.

"Yeontan, try saying thank you," Jungkook said while lifting the puppy in the air. "Say woooof woo." He barked in attempts of teaching the dog a brand-new technique.

"Okay, enough." I pulled the guy by his forearms and tried to draw their attention back to the more important topic. "I have no idea about what I'll do but someone's too busy giving lessons to a dog on how to be a fucking human."

"Yeah, yeah. So, here's how it will go." The three of us wrapped our hands around each others' necks, making an unsymmetrical circle while Jungkook spoke. "Y/N, cook something good and Taehyung will help you with it. I'll send Taehee to the kitchen so make sure you act like couples in front of her."

I mentally analysed the plan and found it to be better. "I'm quite good at cooking as Jin taught—"

"Okay, so, with that being said..." Jungkook cut me off and extended his hand to the centre of our circle. I grudgingly stacked my right hand above his and Taehyung followed after. "Let's get it!"

15 minutes later...

I set a large bowl on the kitchen platform while Taehyung was too engrossed reading the ingredients of vanilla extract. "Interesting? Just like bedtime stories?" I fondly asked while peeping to take a look.

"What the hell is your problem?" Taehyung was clearly done with my overused joke and had given me two choices: either stop speaking or shut up. He slammed the small bottle down and walked away from me.

"Now that you're close to the refrigerator, pass on some eggs." I tapped the whisker against the glass bowl with the rhythm of the soft music playing in the background. We decided to bake a cake on the extraordinary occasion of Kim Yeontan's birthday.

He pulled open the doors to the cold paradise and searched for the asked item. "Whose eggs?" He asked while poking his head out and pointing towards the brown and white eggs.

"Mine." I murmured while rolling my eyes and giving him the instructions audibly. "Either will work."

"Okay, then. Catch!" The male suddenly shouted while throwing 4 eggs in my direction. I was able to catch only one of them while two became prey to gravity and fell but one egg landed right above my head. The shell rested on my head while the yolk and egg white dripped down my forehead. "Shoot... It's not my fault if you see. You were supposed to catch them." He slowly closed the door and prepared to run away.

One could practically see the flames of anger around my shoulders. "And you thought I was some lead-juggler of a world-class circus?!" I asked before realising I had saved an egg earlier. I smirked, looking up at him and shooting the egg directly at his chest. "Revenge? Taken. Hotel? Trivago."

"Oh, wait till I do what~" Were Taehyung's first words after he revived from the momentary pain and felt the freshly brewed desire of getting back at me. He lifted the glass container of cake flour. "Bathe you with flour." In a blink of an eye, my upper body was covered in a thin layer of white dust.

"Oh, fuck you." I gasped while looking for another weapon. My fingers wrapped around a bowl with cream and I emptied the content at him. "Who's laughing now?" I asked him and we broke into giggles.

"Dada..." We took a bend to glare at Taehee who unexpectedly showed up at the wrong time. "A white ghost!" The mask of flour on my face lead the girl to confuse me with a ghost. I quickly went over to the kitchen sink and washed my face for her. "Oh, it's you, some lady. Did she beat you again, dada?"

Taehyung was rather embarrassed but he scooped her up in his arms. "No, baby. Eomma and I were preparing a cake for Yeontannie." He put special emphasis on the term eomma for the kid to correct herself.

"With love. We're making something special with love." I added the missing keyword and Taehyung nodded along.

"Yeah, love." He awkwardly repeated after me to make sure she learned the word well.

Taehee's moved her eyes like a pendulum from Taehyung's to my face. "Love, special something with special love." I chanted once more to seal the flaws.

The born-actor, Jeon Jungkook crossed the scene at the same moment and quite naturally asked a question even when it was his plan. "What are you doing?"

Taehee asked her dada to let her down and she waddled her way to Jungkook. "Oh, I know what they are doing." Taehee turned around to give her parents one last sympathetic look before answering. "They are making love with something special."

Jungkook shot his head up to glare at us, who were covered in cake ingredients. He slightly smirked and commented, "You guys are kinky."
