❝For a second they looked silently into each other's eyes, and the distant and impossible suddenly became near, possible and inevitable❞ - Leo Tolstoy.

Baekhyun thought wrong when he imagined the silence of home greeting him. He thought wrong when his heavy footsteps with a heavy heart walked through the door to be ready to greet the silence, because, as soon as he stepped inside, the familiar giggles, and laughter went through his ears like a blessing, and the sight in the living room had his heart erupt with a bliss.
Areum, Seojun and Gayoung were seated on the couch, with Seojun seated between them as both mother and daughter were making two ponytails in his hair with their soft giggles echoing in the living room as Seojun was whining about having the hairstyle same as his mommy and sister who had their hair tied in two pigtails.
"Aw, my adorable baby." Gayoung cooed, smooching his cheek twice as Areum laughed, softly fixing his bangs. "Wow, Jun-ah, you look so pretty!"
He giggled, eyes sparkling as he looked at Mongryong seated on the floor by the couch. "Really?!"
He stared at him with a satisfied face, making the three of them giggle together as both of them hugged Seojun before Gayoung began to take pictures of themselves on her phone.
The sight had Baekhyun's lips curve in a soft smile, his eyes were glistening with a warmth, the sight he missed for two days, the people who had become his favorite, and her, who had become more than favorite, something he never thought he'd feel, yet here he was, which was unknown before but now it was not.
And as soon as his eyes had stopped at her, his heartbeat raced, he couldn't help but stare at her with a feeling of pleasantness until his unpleasant thoughts occurred in his mind enough for his heart to sink in a not so pleasing way which pierced the spot right there.
Whereas, Gayoung who was taking pictures of her little beans with a smile, until her heart felt strange, an odd sensation which had her stop her actions to coming to a realization of him being here around her, and the feeling had her heartbeat quicken enough to tilt her head towards the direction of the entrance door.
Their eyes met, a warm chills ran through them, their breath hitched, as they stayed still staring at each other unable to even blink, because that's how much they wanted to look at each other, as a wave of bliss erupted in their hearts followed by a sudden nervous and shyness of their fond feelings.
"Dad!"
Areum exclaimed, as soon as she took a notice of her dad's presence to hop off the couch with a happy squeal to run toward him following Seojun with a beaming smile along the Mongryong as both of them were quick to hug him when Baekhyun crouched down to their level with a laugh leaving his lips as he was tackled down by them yet the laugh was a joyful one as his heart warmed at their love for him.
