The woman on the screen smiled gently, brushing a loose strand of hair behind her ear. "You've really grown, Woonie. So tall… and handsome too. I almost didn't recognize you."
Brandon chuckled sheepishly "Aunty, you haven't changed at all. Still as elegant as ever."
Dhayun rolled her eyes lightly, "Okay, okay, enough flattering my mom, Woonie…"
The woman laughed softly "Oh, hush, Dhayun. I haven't even started asking how my daughter is doing. You've lost weight again, haven't you?"
Dhayun sighed dramatically "Eomma… I'm eating just fine."
Her mother, Kim Haejin, narrowed her eyes playfully. "You always say that. But it's not just food... I can tell when something's bothering you. Are you getting enough sleep? Studying well?"
"I'm fine, Eomma," Dhayun said quickly, waving her hand. "Don't worry, I'm handling everything."
Brandon added with a smile, "She's actually a great cook. Made me stew today. It was amazing."
"Really?" Haejin's eyes brightened. "That's good to hear."
