RETURN OF THE MERMAN PRINCE |JIKOOK|

JUNGKOOK'S POV

I pick up the scattered papers on my table as I arrange them in order, today I have time off as I've been so busy lately but that doesn't mean that I will forget my baby girl. It's been a year now and the company is doing successful it's in one of the top five successful companies in Korea and that's why it's very active and very busy at the same time sometimes I reach home late I find my girl is already asleep but I play with her at night cuz she tends to wake up to feed at night.

Thanks to mum and dad they have been taking care of Jungmin when I'm away making my work easier it's not like she's a burden no!, I don't mean like that it's just thanks to them half of my work has been reduced so now I concentrate on the company and concentrate more on my girl.

Since I haven't got an assistant yet my brother volunteered to be my assistant and how could I say no he's the perfect candidate and since he's still around he can help me at the company and thanks to my other three buddies we have been running this company all together thanks to them we have reached at it's peek.

It's lunchtime and I'm packing to go back home I don't want mum to scold me she called to tell me that she prepared lunch and I should be there before it gets cold. In the evening I planned to take Jungmin at the park I really want her to have a normal life like other kids so today I want to show her around the park and have some quality time after a long day at work.

It's been a year and I can say she's growing up pretty fast she even called me appa, I still remember that lucky day when I came back from work pretty tired I picked her up in my arms and played with her when suddenly she called me I was so shocked and surprised that I froze in my place I even had to tell her to call me that again and she did, my drained energy came back in a fast pace i was happy that I couldn't help than cry tears of joy my baby is growing up angel would be happy.....????....angel....

It's been a year and I can't stop thinking about that one and only person who brighten up my life, it's been a year but I still ask about him I won't give up on him he promised to come back and so I will wait for him even if it means one year, 5 years I will still wait for him, I miss Kookmin too I wonder what our boy is up to, but what about our daughter? what if she ask me where her mum is? what will I say I'm not even sure what I would tell her 'that your mum disappeared just like that!' no... no...no.. that's not what I really have to say do I?, every time I make sure to ask Dae about any news but he would only tell me nothing has happened so far sometimes I really want to doubt him but again I don't want to stress him with my burdens I know he is busy but he is the only person who I can ask but everyday I realize that maybe I should just wait quietly but that's also another thing it's very hard.

The driver interrupts my thoughts when he announced we had reached I look outside even i don't know when we reached here I guess I have been thinking a lot today I don't waste time to walk in the mansion only to be met with Jungmin crawling on the floor heading to where I was "aigoo.... who has been waiting for me?" I carry her up kiss her chubby cheeks "is it me or she's getting cuter every day?" I hear mum and dad chuckle as they approach us "I guess she is indeed getting cuter these days anyway you are lucky you made it the food isn't cold yet or else....." she warns "I know.... I know.... mum" jokingly I say as we head to the table it was full of fruits and my favorite foods and Jungmin's favorite too well my favorite is her favorite I guess it runs in the blood, I take a seat with her on my lap as she starts clapping her tiny hands in anticipation to eat. Did I say she likes eating just like her mum? we don't waste time to dig in with me feeding Jungmin including me and my parents and brother who just came in "oh there you are!" he says "why?" I look at him confused "oh I thought you were still in the office only to be told that you had already gone I guess someone is more excited than I am, I hurried here so you won't leave me" we burst into laughter, all of us are going to visit the park and my bro here is excited like a kid

I wanted to reserve the whole place but I had second thoughts and wanted Jungmin to see other kids and I see how she would react, kids understand between themselves even the things we adults don't understand so I thought today will be a good day since it won't be crowded and my parents agreed to tag along I thought they will think it's so foolish of me but I was surprised even my brother was like "wow I would love to see the park again" I guess we are all excited not forgetting Jungmin who is very excited than us she can't stop calling me appa, I learnt that she usually calls me that when excited.

In a few weeks it's going to be her birthday and she would be one, she grows pretty quickly I didn't even expect her to start speaking this early but let's not forget she is not ordinary so I haven't seen anything weird or her acting different or maybe not yet........ I dont know I think I should talk to Dae more about this am afraid she herself will feel different but she would if we tell her so maybe we shouldn't even tell her so.....

.......................

As we strolled around the park I could see the amazement in Jungmin's eyes even when I try to call her she wouldn't even look at me, eyes were glued to the sight of the park. She kept on mumbling things that I was not even understanding I took her out of her stroller and held her but she wouldn't even glance at me she kept on calling me but she wouldn't look she saw how other kids were playing but when I try to put her down she wouldn't let go of my arm I guess she's still studying the surrounding, mum and dad took a seat on the bench and my brother? I do not know where the heck he is. I keep on walking with Jungmin as she stares around the other kids and I spot an aquarium at the next building.

We walk into the aquarium and stood at the very big glass inside the big tank there were different kinds of fish and in different sizes below was beautiful coral reefs it was really a sight I remembered when I first came here with Jimin he wouldn't stop staring, he was speaking to the fish but now I understood why because himself was a fish if I can put it in that way, but what I didn't notice was Jungmin who stared at the tank she wasn't even saying anything when I glanced at where she was looking at my jaw almost dropped.

The fish which were swimming freely stopped and and looked at us...looking or staring I really can't tell I could see Jungmin's eyes light up a bit and then back to normal the fish were still in one place, I panicked maybe they recognize she's one of them I look around and see everyone was busy with other things and I notice a kid calling his mum "mum look the fish is Starring" I heard him say quickly i went out of the aquarium with Jungmin who whine when we were out "sorry baby but we can't still be there" I walk to another location 'that was close' I sigh...

This is what I've been scared of all along I know Jungmin is different but I don't want the public to know that she's not ordinary if that's how the fish reacted what else could react the same way, I even start to think about the future will she be able to mingle with other kids they would noticed how different she is from them. I tried to push all the thoughts so that I could enjoy this day rather than thinking "let's head to the swing" I say as we go to the said swing.....She got happy....
