"Knock knock knock knock" says Seulgi while knocking at their tree house.
"How may I help you?" Irene asks before opening the door.
"The castle is holding a big event for the one and only love of the princess, she is inviting you to come and celebrate with us"
"What an honor, my dear, may I have the invitation."
"I will hand it to you if you'll open the door for me"
"How sure am I that you are sent by ber majesty?"
Seulgi coughs.
"Ah ahm, you might not be aware but her majesty is talking about you nonstop which guarantees you, I know allot about you madame"
"Shall, I ask you then?"
"Sure, go ahead."
"Who is the most dear to me?"
"Of course, it's me."
"What do you mean by that?"
"Open the door, my dear."
"It's you, my princess Seulgi."
"It's me"
The two shared a giggle.
Irene hits Seulgi jokingly.
"Aw"
"What was this plan? You can just ask me for a dinner with you without acting like this."
"Well did you not like it?"
"My hear fluttered so I guess I did like it?"
"Then I'm glad to hear that. I just want to make our usual jungle dinner date special. "
The two went down and Seulgi lead the way to their dining table.
"Did you hire these fireflies to help you tonight?"
"Of course, I am great at convincing them to help me surprise you."
"Nice talk" Irene holds her laughter and just smiles.
"Here my lady" Seulgi pulled the log to assist Irene in sitting.
"Thank you"
"This is the menu for tonight." Seulgi acts as the waitress.
"Okayyyyy"
"Why? Do you need help?" Seulgi hurriedly sat down facing her.
"Can you at least help me with your words, I am not familiar with "date" "menu" "wine". I have learned the words I know now when you used to talk to me as I was growing as a plant."
"Okay okay"
"He he he, thank you"
"Now you sounded like a robot"
"Ughhh nevermind"
"Is my date bothered with her girlfriend asking her things, shall her girlfriend leave now?"
"What WAIT!! NOO!! g g g-girlfriend"
"I was kidding. I want this, grilled fish meat, slices of fruits preferably apples and bananas, and wine please. I want to try this unfamiliar word."
Seulgi stood up acting like she's listing the orders.
"What about my girlfriend?"
Seulgi run back at her seat. She sure is acting two different roles, her date and the waitress, in her skit just to entertain Irene.
"Ugh uhm your girlfriend?" Seulgi's cheeks are reddish.
"Are you blushing right now?"
"NO! I am not" Seulgi denies while covering her cheeks that are burning red now.
"Then, what about you? What are you gonna order?"
"I will have the same"
Seulgi stood up again.
"Okay, I will serve your orders soon."
"Thank you" Irene replies.
Seulgi has set aside her props as waitress and the menu which only had the three orders on the list. She found it funny and wholesome how Irene was getting along her skit.
She served their dish and poured their wine.
They are using their bare hands like they usually do and used the bamboo glasses for their wine.
"Where did these came from?"
"Which one?"
"The wine. I have never heard of this."
"My father has made one before and it's been stocked here for years."
Irene in surprise spits her wine.
"So, is this expired?"
"No, it isn't. Wine gets better through time. Here try it again."
Irene blinks her eyes and sips a few to taste.
Minutes later, she finished the whole bottle.
"AAAAAAAHHHHHkk this is so delicious, you shouldve told me about this sooner, we could've got along earlier. We could've spent our spring better."
"Aren't we spending it better now?"
"With our time together, yes,WE-" before Irene could even finished her sentence her face dropped down the table. She got knocked out by a bottle of wine.

Birds are chirping. The wolves are howling. Seulgi hears the river's waves while she prepares soup for Irene.
The sun rises, she went to check Irene up.
She sat next to their bed and held her left hand. She caressed it using her cheeks, gave it a peck. Soon after, Irene was awakened by Seulgi's actions.
"Seulgi-yah, you got up earlier. I'm sorry, did you eat already,wait I will prepare food for you" Irene got up, insisting she will help.
"It's fine, I have prepared a hangover soup for you already. Come with me so you can get better."
