Siwon woke up to the sound of something beeping noisily from outside his room, groggily dragging himself out of bed on the day after his overnight filming schedule for his new drama in Taiwan. He had been asleep for less than four hours, so he wasn't all too surprised when he walked past the mirror and noted his blood-shot eyes staring back at him.
Following the beeping sound, Siwon eventually found himself in the washing area, looking at the behind of someone who was probably curiously examining the machine in front of him, prodding at random buttons which made even more noises at the provocation. The head with messy, dirty blond hair told him that the man was none other than Donghae, and Siwon wondered why in heaven's name the former was wide awake. Donghae went to bed even later than Siwon did, after all.
"Hae, what are you doing?" said Siwon after several minutes of observation, who got tired of having Donghae mooning him and disregarding his presence completely. The other man turned around in surprise, staring back at the tallest of the pair with wide, innocent eyes.
"I'm trying to get my laundry done, but I can't seem to make the washing machine work," he pouted, leaning against the machine in frustration. He continued shooting occasional glances at the object which was still beeping away, as if it would miraculously start washing his clothes just by mentally willing it to work.
Then Donghae came to a sudden realisation, and turned expectantly towards Siwon, who was in the middle of letting a wide yawn escape. Siwon stopped in the middle of his action, and opted to widen his eyes in question at his friend. "Siwonnie, do you know how to operate this thing?" Donghae asked, causing said person's eyes to grow even wider than he thought possible, and Siwon pointed at himself as if he did not realise that Donghae was talking to him.
"I'm not really familiar with this model, but I think I can try…" Siwon muttered hesitantly when Donghae gave an enthusiastic nod, and walked out to the washing area for the first time since he had stepped out of his bedroom. He furrowed his brows together in concentration, trying to decipher the Chinese writings on the lid which bore the operating instructions for the machine, rubbing his chin in deep thought.
"Well…?" the other man asked impatiently when Siwon did not even move to press anything on the machine for the next few minutes. He desperately needed to do his laundry on the one day that he was free from his schedules; otherwise he wouldn't have anything else to wear for the rest of the week.
"I really have no idea," came the blunt reply, and the both of them stared at each other for a short moment.
"This is bad, isn't it?"
"We could always wait for Ryeowook to get back and settle this for you."
"True, he should have enough knowledge about the electrical appliances in the house," Donghae nodded in agreement.
"What shall we do now, then? I don't think I can go back to bed," Siwon frowned, squinting in response when the bright rays of the sun pierced through his vision.
"Bubble tea?" Donghae suggested.
"You're on."
