Seokjin was getting ready for the conference the next day when the maid came in. "Sir, you have a courier."

Seokjin looked confused, "Then why are you putting it here? Take it to the office."

The maid bowed, "We have instructions to give it to you personally."

Seokjin rolled his eyes and dismissed the maid. He went to the parcel. There were two boxes both addressed to him. He shook the boxes a bit and then opened the first one, the bigger one with a paper cutter.

There were heaps of files in it. He took one and opened it and was left in tears. It was a drawing that looked like it was done by a child. It had three figures and tags on those figures. 'Appa', 'dad', and Eunha. He chuckled and went through every painting made by his daughter. After a few files, her drawings changed to digital art and became more perfect. He was really proud of her. He looked more in the box and found little hairpins and toys. They seemed to be Eunha's from when he was a child. He picked up a figure. It was a Kaws figure. He chuckled. Typical Eunha and Namjoon.

He looked at the smaller box and cut it open. There was a letter, a hoodie and velvet box. He took the hoodie and smelt it. It smelt like Namjoon. He opened the letter and started reading it.

Dear Jin hyung,

So, Eunha wanted to give you Christmas gifts. So here they are. There are Enha's drawings from when she was young. And the toys are her favourite once. Especially the Kaws figure. She doesn't give it to anyone. Feel special for it."

Seokjin chuckled.

The hoodie. I wore it the entire day yesterday so it might smell like me. I know you like my hoodies because they smell of me. But that doesn't mean that I have accepted you. You will have to work for it. There is my originally published novel for you. Eunha told me that you read my novels. This one does not have the cuts that were made by the censor board.

Seokjin took the hoodie and wore it. He whiffed deeply and smiled with content. He looked in the box and found the book. "Lean On Me." He smiled and put it on the table near him.

The velvet box has something that you left at home when you left 12 years ago. I hope you take it back.

Home.

The concept seemed foreign to Seokjin. He opened the box and he felt like someone punched him in his chest. He sniffed and choked on his emotions. It was a platinum ring. Their wedding ring that he had left on the table the day he left. He took the ring and wore it on his ring finger. Whipping the tears, he continued the letter.

I am still saying, I didn't accept you. Work for it. I courted you in college, now it's your turn. It seems that you know what things I like the most. Put some extra effort and I might say yes."

Yours,

Kim Namjoon (And Kim Eunha)

Seokjin smiled and chuckled. "I will work my way to you, Joon-ah." He took out his phone and made a call, "Hello? Jungmaan bakery?"

Eunha entered the building and guided her way to Seokjin's office. Now that she has been here so many times, no one stops her from going to Seokjin's office. She even made a few friends. She knocked on the door three times and opened the door when she heard a faint 'come in.'

Seokjin smiled brightly when he saw Eunha enter the office and stood up from behind his table, "Hey, princess. How are you?"

Eunha perked up, "I am fine. Did you like my gifts?"

Seokjin pointed at the shelf, "Of course." The shelf had a Kaws figure and Namjoon's latest book.

Eunha smiled brightly and saw Seokjin's finger, "But you don't have the ring." She pouted.

Seokjin looked at his hand and chuckled, "I can't suddenly spot a ring and steer the media." He dipped his finger in his neck and brought a silver chain out, which held the ring in it. "Happy?"

"Very." Eunha took out her phone and clicked a picture. "We loved the cakes you sent home. They were very delicious. Dad almost agreed to eat only them for lunch." Her smile turned to pout, "But then he remembered that he was a father."

Seokjin laughed heartily. "Ah! You guys are just too cute."

Eunha was about to say something when Seokjin's phone rang. He went to the desk and took it.

Your father is here.

Seokjin groaned, "Is anyone else with him?"

Lee Jaehwan

"Thank you." Seokjin cut the call and looked at Eunha with dread on his face, "Quick. Hide!"

"What, why?"

Seokjin searched here and there, "Not the time. Just hide. In the cupboard."

They were lucky enough that the cupboard didn't have that many files. Eunha went in just in time the door opened. Seokjin pretended to take the file out of the cupboard and close it. But he kept it open enough for Eunha to breath.

Seokjin bowed to his father, "Father. Sunbae."

His father hummed and sat on his desk. Jaehwan's eyes went wide as he saw the ring on the collar. It was his wedding ring. He was at the wedding. He looked at Seokjin and then signalled to the ring. Seokjin raised his brows and looked down and saw the ring. His eyes went wide too and he quickly hid the ring.

"Is there anything wrong?" Mr Kim asked and both of them flinched a bit.

"Uhh, no. I guess there is a reason you are here." Seokjin changed the topic and smiled. Obviously a fake one.

Mr Kim Nodded, "I hope you know elections are near and you won't create any trouble for you. I heard you weren't home on Christmas eve."

Seokjin rolled his eyes internally, "I was at a friend's house."

Mr Kim stood up and glared at Seokjin, "I hope this friend of yours is not your past." He was about to go when the Kaws caught his attention, "Did you buy this?"

Seokjin visibly stiffened, "No. It is a gift. From a fan."

Mr Kim hummed, "It's good that you know how to please the public. I am for once impressed."

Mr Kim left the room leaving Seokjin and Jaehwan alone. Seokjin left out a huge sigh and slumped on the couch.

"The fuck Jin? Why are you wearing your wedding band?" Jaehwan scolded him walking near him.

Seokjin blushed and looked down, "Namjoon gave it back to me. I had to wear it. Too bad I can't wear it on my finger." He gasped, "Eunha!"

He went to the cupboard and opened it, "You okay, princess?"

Eunha nodded, "I am. Wow, halabaoji is so.."

"Stuck up?"

"Strict?"

Seokjin and Jaehwan said together. Respectively.

Eunha chuckled nervously, "Both of them."

Jaehwan snapped his head on realisation, "Wait. She is your daughter?"

Seokjin nodded, "Eunha, this is Lee Jaehwan. My sunbae, my guide, My friend."

Eunha bowed to him, "Hello Jaehwan samchon."

"Gah!" Jaehwan held his chest, "I will melt. Too much cuteness."

Seokjin chuckled, "Yes, she got that from her dad."

"Wow, I suddenly feel like throwing up." Jaehwan acted like gagging and Eunha laughed at them.
