Heart of Flowers Sword of Thorns

Since they had some chestnuts left from the previous night, they equally shared them as a morning meal. Sitting together, breaking away the scorched woody shells, there was an awkward silence between them. Whenever Jung-In felt there was uneasiness between Soo-Ah and himself he would end up making a joke or starting a playful tease. Since he saw Soo-Ah truly enjoyed her skimpy breakfast and because he had already eaten his, he thought it would be a good idea to play the thief. He quickly grabbed her share of the bamnamus and sprinted away from the fire, leaving Soo-Ah in a daze as to what had happened.

"I am so hungry! Thank the gods you thought to leave me some of your shares." Jung-In ironized her with a playful smirk.

"If you want them you can have them!" Soo-Ah shook her hands together to get rid of the crumbs, unwilling to join him in his silliness anymore.
