SERIES #1
Yoon parked her car outside her parents' house. It's been awhile since the last time she could spend her time together with her parents as she worked nonstop for the past months.
She recalled her conversation with her mom last night.
"Yoon, are you that busy? Come and visit us here. We miss you." As soon as she picked the call, her mom said.
"I'm so sorry mom, my works can't stop coming. I miss you too." She was in a middle of rechecking her clients' order lists. Later, Yoon put her phone on table and turned on the speaker.
"Oh, honey. You've worked so hard. I'm so proud of you. You know that, right?" Her mom's voice fulfilled her office room. "Yes, mom. I know."
"Yoon, I want you to come over tomorrow. Do you hear me?" Her dad's voice joined the call. Yoon sighed.
"Dad, I have so much work to do this week. I don't think I can make it. Seriously, I'm not making excuses. I'm genuinely busy."
The other line was left in silence for several minutes. Oh god, are they sulking? Yoon massaged her temple.
"Alright, I'll try. But if I can't make it please don't sulk again." She surrendered. Her parents literally knew her weakness. Yet she fell again.
She heard her parents screamed in happiness on the other side. She smiled.
"I know it. My daughter is very kind and pretty. I will cook your favourite dishes, okay?" Her mom said.
"Yes, mom. See you tomorrow."
"See you tomorrow, my daughter. We love you."
"I love you too." Then the call ended.

Standing in front of the door, Yoon knocked several times before it was opened from inside. She was then engulfed in her mom's bear hug.
"I miss you so much." Her mom said. "I miss you too, mom" She hugged back.
"So you don't miss me. I'm hurt."
Yoon looked up behind her mom. She smiled. "How did you know that?" Yoon started to tease her dad.
"Had a feeling about it. Not disappointed though." Mr Ha walked into the living room, with a sad face. I still can't believe this is my father.
Yoon pulled herself out from her mom's embrace and quickly gave her dad a back hug. "Are you kidding me? I miss you so much too!"
"Yoon, you can be honest with me. I'm not hurt at all."
"DAD!"
Her dad left a big laugh. He turned around and picked Yoon from the ground, giving her a veryyyy big hug. They laughed. Damn, I miss this so much. "Daughter, you must be so hungry, right? Let's go! I've prepared many things for you!" Her dad nudged her arm. "Your mom can't sleep last night because she's THAT excited to welcome you."
