"Grannie... look at Uncle Soobin. He didn't let Gyu to watch cartoons." Beomgyu whining.

"Soobin-nie, let Gyu watch his cartoons. Don't always pick a fight with children."  said Mrs. Jeon.

"Alright, alright!"  Soobin switched the tv broadcasts. He stick his tongue out at Gyu who grin at him.

"Grannie, look at Uncle Soobin!" Gyu whining again. Mrs Jeon stared at his youngest son.

"This little brat... always have something to reply back. You want to watch that cartoons, right... go watch it."

"Yah, you always arguing with a little kid. Please remember that you are grown up man, just let him be."  Jungkook said while sit beside his youngest brother.

"Uncle Kookie, look. Uncle Soobin doesn't want to give Gyu watch cartoons."  The little one quick hug his Uncle Kookie.

"Uncle Kookie wil beat him later, okay." The older only caress his hair softly.

"Yeah..." Gyu jumped out of joy. Jungkook and Soobin just smile looking his nephew.

"So Soobin, how was your experience living in the countryside? Did your adopted family treat you well?" Jungkook ask.

Since his younger brother came home, the older didn't have a time to spend with his sibling. Of course that he is busy with the paper work at office these days. Soobin has gone to a rural village in Jeju. He didn't even know the name of that place, but according to his younger brother, it was his university's choice to run a foster program. The unassuming brother who made his way to the village wanted to participate in the program, supposedly to gain experience and to know the traditions there.

"It's was so much fun. My adopt family is so kind to me... they treat me like I'm their precious thing. The problem is they from a poor family... so I have to adjust myself to live there. But it's a good thing cause all of that doesn't matter to me. And the scenery is so beautiful that can't be compare to the picture. It's has not been polluted like the situation here. There a some golden rice paddy field, a crystal clear beach, and various natural beauties can be seen there."
Soobin answer with a bunny smile.

"It's really hard for you to get used to it, right? You never lived in..."

"Not at all. I can survive... but you, I don't think so. I think if you in my place, I bet that day you will run away from there."

"Who said I can't? I've never been afraid to face the challenges of life... I'm sure I can survive."

"Are you sure?" the younger ask as if in doubt. He just wanna test his hyung.

Jungkook quickly got up from his seat. "Appa!!"

Mr. Jeon, who kept entertaining Gyu behavior in the dining room, hurried to get his oldest son. "What's wrong, Jungkook? Is something bothering you?"

"Jungkook, are you not well?" Mrs Jeon touch his oldest son forehead. His son never been like this before.

"I'm fine, eomma." Jungkook show his bunny smile to relieve her mother's anxiety. He look at his father.
"Appa... our company has a factory in Gacheon, right."

"Yeah, close to my friend's house. Why?" 
Mr. Jeon is getting more and more surprised. Never his oldest son even ask the factory. Now why did he suddenly ask about that factory.

"How the situation in that village?"

"It's quite good, why do you ask about it?"

"Is there any electricity or water facilities?"

"They have electricity... if it's water, sometimes there are, sometimes not.. but our factory has no problems with electricity and water. Just in the village area."
Jungkook nodded.

"I will take responsibility for the operation of the factory."  Jungkook left leaving them in speechless. All faces quick looked right into Soobin.

'Please buried me right now.' Soobin thought.

"Why you guys look at me like that?"

"What did you said to him?" ask Taehyung curious. I bet he said something to Jungkook, if not... then why he suddenly make a decision to live in the countryside.

"Nah... nothing." Soobin grin. Why Jungkook hyung have to take serious in this matter.
All eyes kept stabbing his face making Soobin sit uncomfortable.

"Actually, we just talk about the village I went to." That's the answer.

"Means..."  Bogum's word stop for a moment.. He stared at Soobin's face deep like to find an answer in there. "You challenge him?" He guess.

'Why my brother in law is so smart at guessing.' "Actually like this... I just said that.. and after that... aaa... it's not like I'm challenge him, but..." Soobin silent for a moment. "It tastes more like that. I didn't expect him to take it seriously."

"You know well about Jungkook behavior, why you said like that to him?" ask Mrs Jeon.

"I didn't mean anything."  is it my fault?

Mr. Jeon only sigh. This kid if he make a decision, he will not change it. If that word is out from his mouth, than that will be out... no turning back.

"Mmm... but it's good thing if he will go there, he can manage the factory."
It's not like Mr. Jeon didn't trust his manager there. Plus he always busy with his company's business here, so there is no time to visit there all this time. He just hoped for his manager there and that man could be expected. Thanks to him, the management of the factory continued smoothly. So if his son go there, it will go easy for the factory... he believed his son will never let him down.

Jungkook always working hard, never in his life he look down anyone even he live in luxury. One day, Jungkook will run his company after there's is time for him to retire. This is a first attempt to let Jungkook try... of course he can.
But what about Mrs Jeon? It must be hard for his wife to let go his son far away from her... plus the village is still don't have convenience. Is Mrs Jeon will be okay with that?

◾◾◾◾◾

A knock can be heard at outside Jungkook's room. "Come in!"  the sound was heard from inside.

Soobin twisted the door knob and enter through the room. He stared the older infront of him.

'How can I convince my brother?' He scratch back of his head. I just got scolded by eomma for making Jungkook hyung do the decision. Now I have to persuade him to not go.

"Soobin, it's late now... why you not sleep yet?"

'How can I sleep in this situation.' He thought. "Same as you... why you not sleep yet?"  It's a relieved that Jungkook Hyung didn't sleep yet, if not... I will be scold by eomma inside my dream too.
How am I gonna ask hyung to not go there... it's not that easy to break his decision.

"Why Soobin?"  ask Jungkook after saw his younger brother in silence.

"H-hyung... are you sure you really want to go the village?"  Jungkook nodded.

"I'm not really challenging you, hyung... you don't have to go there, y'know. Eomma must be worried if you go there.. it's not like we use to live in such a rural area."

"That's why I have to use to it. Beside I know that you never meant it..."

"Then you not going??" Ask Soobin in full of hope.

"That's is not what I mean. I will not change my decision. And beside, your words always make me wonder if I can live there or not. Yes we know that we never go to the village, but when our late grandfather still alive... we never visited him there, it's always them who visited us. So it's not wrong if my turn to try, right?"

"But hyung..." It's not that you can't try. But why you have to try after I said that!!??

"Enough, Soobin. I will never changed my word."  The older spoke sternly.

He sigh in defeat. Now I'm dead! Eomma will continue scold me. "Alright, then..." Soobin slowly walk out from Jungkook room.

"How is it, Soobin-nie?" Mrs Jeon ask after waiting for the youngest from outside. She tried to eavesdrop their conversation but still she heard nothing.

"He still Jungkook, eomma. He stubbornness is still there."  and her lecture will start in three, two, o-

"Look, you always tease your brother like that.  It's not like you don't know your brother's temperament. There's many conversations, yet you guys still talk about the village. Now he have to go there just because of work, it's not like he doesn't have a work at here. I'm just afraid he can't adjust to live there later. That place is remote, not like here. There is no such facility there than here."

"I'm sorry, eomma. I'm don't mean it."  he feels guilt. Jungkook hyung never change his attitude.. always stubborn. How can I can make him stay? If he tell that, that he will do.
"Eomma, you mad at me ain't you?" Guilt has covered his body.
It's been two week when I'm far away from home... eomma's worried will never disappear. Now it's Jungkook hyung turn to stay there.

Mrs Jeon carved a smile on her beautiful face. "No baby. It's okay... it's already late now, go to sleep." Mrs Jeon caress his youngest son hair softly.

"Eomma?"

"Eomma will asleep soon."

"Alright... but don't too late, okay."
Mrs. Jeon nod. She kissed Soobin's forehead lovingly. "Good night, baby."

His youngest son left after kissed by her mother at his cheek. Always loved to call him her baby and kiss him goodnight even he already grown up.

How can she want to make her oldest son to stay? Jungkook's stubbornness is still from the beginning. He never changed his word, even more when he get challenged. The decision he ever made is about the married.
