Heal Me (Married To Brother-in-law)

23.

(CHAPTER SPOILER: Emm... Soft hours?)

                                    *****

Byun family finally returned to their house at the evening after their one whole week's.....vacation?
No, not vacation for Munhee. In fact, it was more of a torture for her. 

Munhee was currently re-arranging her cupboard, which she had left almost half emptied while packing for her stay in her parent's house, after she was done arranging the kids' closet for them. 

'I never knew I would be capable of missing this house!'   Munhee thought to herself while folding her clothes. True to her thoughts, she never expected that the moment she'd step in Byun Mansion after a week of not being here, a wave of nostalgia would hit her.  It was as if she had already formed some sort of connection with the walls here, it was as if she'd been taking care of this not-so-homey house for such a long time, whereas it's been only a few weeks.  She felt like she even missed this guest room which was her so called bedroom here.

Chuckling to her stupid thoughts, she picked a fresh set of  Rilakkuma printed tee and matching Rilakkuma printed shorts to change out from her current dress.

After changing and gotten freshen up, she tied up her hair in a high pony, because housewife duties called for her to prepare dinner for her professional husband and her little angels, even though she was a bit tired from the journey.

Munhee cringed at the sight of her reflection in the mirror when she stopped momentarily to check her state, she looked like a five year old child trapped in a twenty two years old body with the childish nightwear she was wearing. But she couldn't help it, it was her daughters' demand to wear the matching night wears they had bought from online, because they thought it would be super cute with all of them wearing same outfits. Undoubtedly, her babies looked super cute as expected when she changed them into their pieces after arranging their closet, but she was sure she looked nowhere near the word 'Cute'.

Munhee's self loathing session got interrupted when she heard a few distant screeches mixed with Baekhyun's high pitched screams. Her eyes widened at the obvious possibility of the kids having a fight or something along the way. She wanted to be proud of herself that she was able to tell what her babies might be doing even without watching them, but again, she didn't like seeing them fight or cry, her heart would sting painfully everytime.

Munhee was rushing through the stairs to reach near the source of the noises, which was the kids' bedroom.

When she almost crossed all the stairs, she heard Baekhyun's voice shouting out for her, "Munhee!" 

The rushing girl's heart pounded in dread, because it's not any usual occasion when Baekhyun would call her like that. The fight between the kids  must've been worse than any fights before.

When she finally managed to reach the kids' bedroom, she eyed the view there with horrified eyes, as Baekhyun was struggling to keep both the girls stop from pulling each other's hairs. The girls were on their daddy's arms, that gave them even better opportunity to attack at one another.

"Oh my god, babies!" Munhee screeched along.

The kids looked like a mess. Their faces where tear strained and red with anger. Both of them had their hands gripping onto each other's hair. Boy, did Munhee regret keeping their hair long enough to do cute ponies - which meant their hair was long enough to be pulled.

Hearing their Mama's voice, the kids' eyes diverted towards her, but within the next second they again returned to whatever they were doing.
