Sayaka and Miyuki’s Big Adventure, Chapter Seven: Dinner at the Noodle House
Tumblr media
Sayaka and Miyuki have been best friends since they were four. When Miyuki comes up with a plan to sneak away from Namba Kindergarten one day, Sayaka is a little hesitant. But after an exciting afternoon of candy, train rides, and peach soda, things take a scary turn when the six-year-olds find themselves hopelessly lost in the middle of Osaka. Will Sayaka and Miyuki find their way back home? Who knew that such an ordinary day would end up becoming the biggest adventure of their lives?
Previous Chapter: A Crazy Coincidence Chapter Seven: Dinner at the Noodle House
          “So, it looks like your parents are on the way,” Antonio explains, hanging up the phone. “For now, we’re gonna grab some grub and then bring you back to the station. Your folks will meet us there.”
          “What’s ‘grub’?” asks Miyuki.
          Antonio chuckles. “Food. We’re gonna grab dinner.”
          Miyuki gasps and starts jumping up and down excitedly. “Yay! I want yakiniku!”
          It’s Kobii’s turn to laugh. “That might be a little out of our price range, Miyuki-chan. How about ramen? There’s a noodle place right across the street.”
          “Oh, yeah! That’s Sayaka-chan’s favorite!” Miyuki tells them. Antonio starts leading them out of the park and towards the crosswalk. Without any hesitation, Miyuki hurries up to Antonio’s side and grabs her hand. When Antonio stiffens and looks down at her, Miyuki beams and lets out an excited giggle. “It’s dangerous if we don’t hold hands when we cross the street.”
          Kobii follows suit, taking Sayaka’s hand. “Sayaka-chan, Miyuki-chan says you really like ramen. Do you have a favorite kind?”
          After a short pause, Sayaka nods and answers in a tiny voice, “Cup ramen.”
          “Oh?” Kobii bites her lip, trying not to laugh. “That’s nice.”
          It only takes a couple of minutes to get to Tounyuu Noodle House. Upon entering, a middle-aged woman wearing a red apron and matching bandana warmly welcomes them and tells them to take a seat anywhere they like. Miyuki walks past the counter seats and chooses a family-style booth in the back of the restaurant. After everyone settles in, Antonio and Miyuki on one side and Kobii and Sayaka on the other, the woman carries over a tray of water and two menus.  
          The restaurant is cozy and warm, and the pleasant aroma of savory broth is making Miyuki’s tummy grumble. She shares a menu with Antonio, who assists by reading the choices aloud whenever the six-year-old comes across a word she can’t read. Miyuki decides on miso ramen with lots of pork slices piled on top, but then she insists on selecting Antonio’s meal as well: a big red bowl of kimchi ramen, her reason being that Antonio “kinda looks spicy too!”
          In a moment, Kobii lets Antonio know that she and Sayaka have also made their choices, so Antonio raises a hand to flag down a waitress. The woman from earlier returns with a notepad and pen, and Antonio places the order: four different types of noodles, a side of fried rice, and a large plate of gyoza for everyone to share.
          Miyuki bounces in her seat, beyond excited at the thought of being able to eat soon. She looks at Sayaka, who’s sitting directly across from her. “Isn’t this great, Sayaka-chan? We’re so lucky, right?”
          But Sayaka flat-out ignores Miyuki by pretending to be busy realigning her chopsticks. She won’t look at her, nor has she given any sign that she even heard her. Suddenly Miyuki doesn’t feel very good. When they first arrived at the restaurant a few minutes ago, Miyuki was in the best mood. She and Sayaka found two brave and kind oneechans who aren’t only helping them get home, but they’re even buying them dinner! Things were turning around for the better, so Miyuki had completely forgotten that she and Sayaka got into a fight earlier that afternoon. But Sayaka’s silent treatment speaks volumes, reminding Miyuki that, yes, she’s still mad. And now Miyuki’s not so happy anymore.
          It doesn’t take very long before Antonio and Kobii pick up on Miyuki’s sudden, drastic mood change. The way that the child is now sitting quietly with her head resting on her arms, staring at her glass of water, is an obvious red flag that something is wrong. Then again, Antonio thinks, Miyuki could just be worn out from what must have been a crazy afternoon. She looks across the table and meets eyes with Kobii, but Antonio can tell that there’s concern written on her face as well.
          “You two must be tired, huh?” Antonio says, breaking the silence. “Is everything okay?”
          Of course Sayaka doesn’t respond, but, to both teens’ surprise, this time even Miyuki keeps quiet. The gears in Antonio’s brain begin to whirr as she panics and tries to come up with a way to liven things up, but, luckily, she finds that she doesn’t have to.
          “Antonio-neechan,” Miyuki voices at last, “I need to go potty.”
          Unfortunately, Tounyuu Noodle House is rather old and doesn’t have a public toilet, so Antonio ends up having to run Miyuki to a nearby convenience store while Kobii stays behind with Sayaka. Once there, Antonio leads the kindergartener to the back of the store.
          “Go ahead,” she says, giving Miyuki a little nudge towards the restroom door. “I’ll wait right here.” Miyuki, however, shakes her head and refuses to budge. Antonio turns white and reverts back into panic mode when she discovers big fat tears running down Miyuki’s cheeks. “W-what? What’s wrong?”
          Miyuki tries to rub her tears away, pointlessly, because they keep coming. “I don’t wanna go home…!”
          “You don’t want to go home?” Antonio repeats, unsure that she heard her correctly. “I would’ve thought you were upset because you wanted to be home already.”
          “Sayaka-chan’s mad at me…” Miyuki sobs. “I got us lost…and I was bad at the crane game…!”
          Antonio furrows her brows and closes her eyes, trying to make sense of what Miyuki’s saying. “Huh? Crane machine? Don’t tell me – you came all the way from Namba, by yourselves, to go to a game center?”
          Miyuki wails pitifully and Antonio starts to sweat. Customers are staring at them. Antonio has no idea how to comfort a crying kid, but she’s going to have to figure it out. Antonio starts by patting the child on the head oddly. But Miyuki steps closer, pushing herself against Antonio’s side and hiding her face in her leather jacket. Antonio sighs and wishes Kobii was here. At least Kobii seems to be good with kids.
          “Come on, don’t cry,” Antonio tries, not really knowing anything better to say. After taking a necessary deep breath to prepare herself, Antonio lifts the child into her arms and hopes for a miracle. Miyuki naturally wraps her arms around the teenager’s neck and rests her head on her shoulder. It’s making Antonio a bit embarrassed, but holding Miyuki seems to be working well. Her cries are soon reduced to occasional sniffles and snuffles.
          “You know, Sayaka-chan was really sad,” Miyuki continues, voice slightly scratchy from crying, “so I thought that if I won her a Hanshin Tiger she would be happy. I used up all my birthday money but Sayaka-chan was right, it was impossible…”
          “A Hanshin Tiger?” Antonio pictures the famous baseball team and a few players’ faces come to mind. “Like a figurine?”
          “No, a tiger!” Miyuki lifts her head, starting to sound more like her old self again. “With fluffy, stripy fur and whiskers!”
          “Oh, the kind that grooowls.” Antonio mimics a wild tiger and pretends to nip at Miyuki with her teeth, sending the girl into a fit of shrieks and giggles.
          “Antonio-neechan, you’re silly!”
          Antonio chuckles, finally starting to relax. Reaching into her uniform pocket, she pulls out her handkerchief and wipes away the remaining traces of tears from Miyuki’s face. “Feeling better now?”
          “Mm-hm!” Miyuki nods. “Can we go back and eat?”  
          Antonio gestures to the restroom door. “Aren’t you gonna go?”
          “Nope!” Miyuki’s wearing a cunning smile and her eyes are shining. “I just wanted to talk.”
          “Little rascal.” Antonio shakes her head, grinning. “Alright, let’s go before our food gets cold.” They leave the convenience store and head back to the restaurant, Miyuki still in Antonio’s arms.

characters: wonho x changkyun 
word count: 2,359
a/n: hey guys im so sorry if its kinda meh ;-; the gif is not mine
masterlist
Tumblr media
A high pitched scream roared throughout the whole building. Two grown men chasing after a little girl was a sight to see. Kihyun and his wife had decided to ask Wonho and Changkyun to babysit their daughter, Kira, for the whole day which they were already obliged to do so after being saved by the couple from being kicked out from the nearby arcade.
The whole house was a total mess. Bottles, blankets, and clothes were all over the place, not to mention the toys that Kira has been playing with. Wonho and Changkyun were now busy looking for the missing Kira. Tiptoeing their way to every corner in the room, Wonho was finally able to see the tiny toes sticking out under the curtains. 
A cheeky grin crossed Wonho’s face and pointed at the curtain right in front of them, making Changkyun burst out laughing. “Omo, where could she go?” Changkyun acted distressed as if he haven’t found her. “Is she in....here!” Wonho pulls the curtain open and meets the twinkling eyes of Kira. “You found me, you found me!”
The sound of Kira’s giggles filled the room. Kira was about to run away again when Changkyun got a hold of her, throwing her up in the air and catching her right on time. “Aigoo, you’re really mischievous aren’t you?” Changkyun teased and tickled Kira on the armpits, making her squirm while laughing really hard.
Wonho couldn’t help but smile at the sight. Glancing up at the clock, his eyes widen and before they knew it, they were rushing towards the kitchen with Kira in their arms. “We’ll be dead if Kihyun finds out that we didn’t feed her on time.” Wonho rattled and quickly prepped the pot on the stove while Changkyun placed Kira on her high chair. 
“What are you going to cook, Hyung?” Changkyun asked and frantically paced fro and to behind Wonho. “I’ll just cook some ramen and we’ll be fine.” Changkyun was then brought to a stop. “Hyung! Are you even sure that Kihyun feeds her those junk?!”
“Well, if he hasn’t then it’s totally fine!” Wonho shrugs and was about to pour the noodles into the boiling pot when his phone rang. It was Kihyun. Nervously answering the phone, clearing their throats before they could even speak was something that Kihyun didn’t catch.
(Hey guys, did you feed Kira?)
“Yeah, we did and she loved it.” Wonho lied, only to receive a look from Changkyun. “I’ve got to go now, Ki. I have to go cook some food for us.” Before Kihyun could even utter a reply, Changkyun immediately turned the phone call off and proceeded in pouring the seasoning and noodles on the pot.
The sound of tummy rumbling caught the grown men's’ attention. It was from Kira and she was starving. When the ramen was almost cooked, Kira starts to whine and let out a cry, making Changkyun panic as Wonho immediately grabbed a character designed bowl and pours the ramen after giving it ten seconds.
Carefully placing the bowl in front of Kira, Changkyun hands her some trainer chopsticks and spoon. Wonho yelps as he remembered that Kira doesn’t like it when the food’s too hot, making him grab a fan and start cooling down the ramen. 
Wonho’s arms were practically gonna fall off from the continuous flapping of arms in order to cool down her meal, however, in just an instant the ramen was cooled down for Kira to dig in. Grabbing a bowl of rice and some watered down kimchi, Changkyun places it beside Kira’s bowl and watches her eat it with slowly.
“Do you think we’ll be dead when she tells Kihyun that we fed her that?” Changkyun asked once more. “Nah.” Wonho carefreely shrugs and proceeds to the fridge, looking for some side dishes that he can mix with their rice. “Yah Changkyun, get some metal bowl and some red pepper paste.”
Mouths munching on something crunchy filled the kitchen. “Have some of the white kimchi.” Wonho places a piece of kimchi onto Changkyun’s spoonful of bibimbap before returning his attention to his own spoon. It was almost normal for the two men to feed each other. “Thanks.” Changkyun couldn’t help but groan at how delicious it was to pair the bibimbap they’ve made with some kimchi.
“Hyung, have you tried wrapping the bibimbap on some greens?” Changkyun queries as he places a spoonful of bibimbap on a lettuce and wraps it up. Wonho shakes his head in response, and this was the only response that Changkyun needs in order for him to put the wrap up to his mouth. Wonho takes the wrap with his mouth in one go before groaning in delight.
It was utterly delicious. The two of them stared at each other’s eyes while enjoying the taste of bibimbap hovering their taste buds. You can say that they were in foodie heaven until they heard someone clear their throat. And it was no other than, Kira, who has been staring at them with a pout.
“Can I have some?” 
Kira’s puppy dog eyes melted the boy’s heart, making them let out an ‘aww’ before feeding her some wraps. An hour has finally passed and their lunch time was finally over. Changkyun lifts Kira off her high chair and carefully sets her down on the floor. 
Dashing out of the kitchen then into the living room, Changkyun didn’t bother chasing after her as Wonho has already wiped off her face and hands. “Hyung, I’ll go play with Kira, okay?” Wonho responds with a ‘mm’, allowing Changkyun to leave the room with just one go.
Kira was already sitting down on the floor with her colored papers, pens and glue sprawled all over the coffee table. “Hm, what are you doing Kira?” Changkyun asks as he settles down beside her. “I’m gonna draw umma and appa!” 
“Really? Alright, then... can I draw with you?” Changkyun cutely asked with his voice slightly raised into a high pitch, making Kira burst into giggles. Kira nods her head in response and immediately transfers her attention to the paper and colored pen right in front of her.
Her tiny littler fingers were tightly wrapped around the pen and she was in a complete trance in her own little world. Red, green, blue and yellow lines inked the thin paper.  Various colored caps were scattered around the whole living room, may it be under Changkyun’s thighs, behind Kira, on top of the coffee table, meters away from the table and much more.
Changkyun was also lost in his own tiny world as he lets out everything that was on his mind on the pink colored paper underneath his palms. Starting with a black pen, he drew the outline and slowly filled the blank spaces with different colors, adding life to it.
Wonho, who was busy wiping the newly washed dishes, was surprised to only hear the sound of the tv. Carefully placing the last bowl on the rack, Wonho dries his hands off with some towel before trudging towards the living room. Wonho was surely surprised to see Changkyun having pen marks on his face.
“Oh no, I think our Changkyun needs some mustache, Kira.” Wonho schemingly suggested with a pout. A gleeful squeal left Kira’s lips as she tackled Changkyun down on the floor with a pen on her hand. Before Changkyun could even stop and let out a protest, the tip of the pen has already grazed themselves over his upper lip and tinted it with black ink.
Wonho didn’t think twice and joined Kira, placing Changkyun’s head on his lap as he write’s his name all over his forehead, receiving a lot of approval from Kira. Fits of giggles and laughter filled the air. Wonho and Changkyun had never felt this warm feeling on their tummies again after leaving the kindergarten way back during their X-Ray days.
Changkyun was now finally free and all of them were busy doodling random things on every colored paper. Wonho couldn’t help but draw a picture of him, Kira and Changkyun happily eating some bibimbap wraps to commemorate the event that happened hours ago. 
“Kira,” Wonho called out without ripping his eyes off the colored paper. “Yes, uncle?” Kira softly replied and was also focused on her paper. “Who do you like more, Uncle Changkyun and Uncle Wonho or appa?” Wonho’s eyes twinkled with mischief and waited for Kira to answer.
This was also something that has caught the ever silent Changkyun’s attention. Kira seemed to be unbothered by the thought but there was a knowing smile plastered on her face and it had an uncanny resemblance of Kihyun’s smile The dimples on her cheeks were deep that she almost looked like a cute little kitten. 
Her eyes twinkled as she looked up to meet the gaze of her uncles. “I like you guys more!” There was a hint of sincerity in her voice and the boys just couldn’t get enough of it. “C’mere!” Wonho throws his arms widely before wrapping them completely on Kira’s tiny body. 
“Do you want to hang out with us tomorrow?” Changkyun peered over Kira’s smiley face and ran his fingers through her brown locks. “Where will we go tomorrow?” Kira’s already hyped up by the thought of having a lot of fun with the best uncles in the whole wide word.
Wonho pulls her away from the hug and sits her down on his lap. “Do you want to go to the amusement park?” 
“Ooohhh! I do, I do! Appa never takes me there since he’s too busy.” Kira sadly says with her shoulders slightly slumped in sadness. “Aww, don’t worry. We’ll ask permission from your appa when he comes home, okay?” Changkyun reassures the toddler and bloops her nose with his finger.
Suddenly the sound the door opening made everyone turn around, only to see Kihyun and his wife smiling widely at them. Kira didn’t think twice and ran towards her parents, giving them a tight hug.
“How was your day with the uncles, sweetie?” Kihyun’s wife asked and only received a smile from her daughter.” Aye, is my daughter being cheeky again?” Kihyun teased, making Kira burst out laughing.
“Uncles was really fun!” Kira beamed and squirmed out from her mother’s hold, going down to rush back to Changkyun and Wonho. “Aigoo, look at the time. I guess we have to go now, Kira.” Changkyun sadly announced and stands up to get his things when he felt a small pair of arms being wrapped around his leg.
“Oh, what’s wrong Kira?” Wonho asked with his bag and Changkyun’s bag in his hands. “Don’t leave..” Kira’s happy smile was long gone as it was now replaced with a sad pout. Tears were welling up on the corner of her eyes and even tightening her grip around Changkyun’s leg.
“Aigoo, does our Kira want us to stay over for the night and play with her a little bit more?” Changkyun picks her up and looks at her in the eyes. “Yes...” her response came out as a whisper as she fiddled on the hem of her dress. “Baby, your uncles still has work to do..” Kihyun apologetically reasoned out and caressed his baby girl’s head, only to make her burst out crying. 
She threw her arms around Changkyun’s neck and buried her face on his shoulder. It was no use in denying that she has grown attached to her uncles in just a small amount of time. “Do you love your uncles?” Kihyun softly queries and only earns a nod from her.
“Do you want your uncles to be tired that they can’t play with you anymore?”
A soft ‘no’ was heard and everyone was startled when Kira makes Changkyun set her down on the floor, her head lowered as tears continued to brim down her cheeks. “Ey, don’t be sad now, kiddo. We still have to go to the amusement park tomorrow, silly.”  
“You are?” Kihyun confusingly asked, taken aback by the sudden announcement. ”Yes, we are!” Changkyun beamed and finally lets out a sigh of relief when they saw the smile on Kira’s face.”And we’ll be going tomorrow morning!” Wonho glances over Kihyun’s wife then to Kihyun. 
“Now, if you want to go to the amusement park with your uncles, they have to go home and rest up, baby.” Kira’s mother coos as she pickes her daughter up. “Okay..”
“Alrightie then, we better get going since [y/n]’s gonna treat us to dinner.” Changkyun remarks and was about to head out when Kira stopped them. “Wait! I have something for uncles.”
She waddled her way towards the coffee table and grabbed the colored paper that she had been working on since a while ago.
“Here.” She offers the colored paper to Changkyun and Wonho, who was tearing up at the thought. “Thank you, baby.” Wonho utters and gives her a pat on the head.
Kihyun and his wife couldn’t help but soften at the sight. Never has she really opened up to others but they were glad that it was Wonho and Changkyun being the first persons whom she opened up to first.
“Why don’t you give your uncles one last hug before they leave?”
Kira didn’t need to be told twice as she already wrapped her arms around Wonho’s neck then pulls away immediately to give Changkyun a hug. “We really need to go now.” Wonho chuckles as they were already ushered to the front door.
“Thank you for watching Kira for us.” The couple cooed and received only a smile from the two. “Take care now and don’t forget about the amusement park tomorrow, alright?” 
“Don’t worry, we’ll be back tomorrow and we’ll probably bring [y/n] and Hyungwon with us.” Changkyun says and gives Kihyun and his wife a hug, only to be followed by Wonho.
“Bye guys.” The two unisons and slowly headed out to their car when they heard a high pitched scream from behind, only to make them burst into a wide smile and leave the place with their hearts beating in joy.
“See you tomorrow uncles!!”
