Superstar Season 3

Episode 5: Moving heaven and earth

Kookie and Tae brought their babies home two days ago and today they will present them to their friends. The hospital stay was 11 days and today the twins are 14 days old. Tae does not think it needs to be formal, but his husband has to do everything big and with bling.

"Kookie why do we need a cater? It's just our friends. And why do I need to wear something nice. We have so much going on with the nurse here, getting up with the babies at night and the babies getting adjusted. Just have them come over as planned and let us not make it a big deal out of it.

Kookie's mouth drops open as Tae swallows, knowing he just stepped in some shit as Kookie's face contorts and he places his hand on one hip.

"Oh, so our children aren't a big deal! Is that what you are saying Tae!"

"No Kookie that is not what I'm saying."

"Everyone wants to meet them, and their presentation is important to me!"

"Kookie, please calm down."

"Tae you're right, I'll just cancel it all. Will that make you happy."

"Kookie, please don't pull the diva move with me. You know what I meant baby."

"Don't baby me, Taehyung!"

"Oh, Taehyung is it now. Kookie I just don't want you to go overboard. There is a lot happening now. And we still have lots to work out. This does not end, and I don't ever want it too. But we must figure out caregivers, work, schedules, feeding, bath times and all the other unplanned unexpected shit that is going to drop. Kai tells me it is part of having children. I love you and my children, so we just need to be careful about where we are placing our energy. And please don't ever tell me that I think my children are not a big deal. That's hurtful." Tae says as Kookie sees the hurt in his eyes and immediately realizes that he has overreacted.

Kookie wraps his arms around his husband's neck and whispers, "Tae, I'm so sorry. I overreacted. I know how much you love me and the babies. I'm so sorry."

Tae kisses Kookie's cheek and pulls back and sees sad eyes. "Baby, what's going on. When micromanaging, controlling Kookie comes out, I know you're scared about something. Our daughter is doing well and gaining weight. Both babies are healthy. I've got very good security in place. We are good. So, what is it? What can I fix?"

"No Tae it's all good. I-I just don't want to change anything. How will I ever return to work and travel again. Also, the same for you. You have traveled for several days with some of your projects. It all feels perfect inside our home, and I'm scared."

"I know what you mean. This is all new for us. I think we will settle back into our lives with modifications. We have things in the works for your career and I should have an update on that soon. As far as travel we agreed to keep it to short trips. And babe if you have a short out of town concert the twins and I can come. Once they are older of course. We will work it out. Do you believe that Kookie?"

"Tae, I believe anything you say because you are the best husband and father ever. Just hearing you say that makes me feel at ease," Kookie says with a smile. "Tae you can wear whatever you want, just not those old ratty jeans. I want you to be comfortable."

"But those jeans are comfortable."

Kookie just looks at him speechless and Tae burst out into laughter.

"Hahaha! Don't worry I will not be wearing those," Tae says as Kookie exhales and slowly smiles.

"Tae did you have someone set-up the new portable crib downstairs? Bam-Bam recommended it."

"Uh not quite, love."

"What? People will be here in a few hours."

"Kookie I'm going to get my tool kit out and put it together myself," Tae says as Kookie rolls his eyes.
