"Here," i take the banana milkshake out of the refrigerator which i made since minutes ago and i keep the glass on the kitchen island, glancing at him as he turns around and doesn't get the packet of his cigarettes from the cupboard. "What's the flavour? Banana?"

Mister jeon frowns but looks at the drink, and then at me with a tired smile. "Yes," i nod and turn the ignition of the stove off, the soup being cooked all good.

"Mm," a hum goes out him, and i turn around to check if he liked the sweet milkshake, he did. "This is amazing," he takes it up in his hand to continue drinking the rest, "try some." He flies the glas over to me suddenly, and i stop stirring the kimchi into the pan, glancing up at him with a surprise. "Come on," he insists me with some softness and persuades me to try the drink too. I part my lips to clasp the same straw he used, and i take a small sip of the banana milkshake.

"It's good?" I nod, stepping back at an instance, smiling slowly at his shining orbs which peer down at mine, "it is."

He takes one more sip of the milkshake and then goes towards the place where his cigarette packets are. "I'm going out for a while," he takes one out among the many, spares a gaze at me and then walks into the backyard with his lighter. I hate this, i feel helpless and yet i want to make him feel comforted so he doesn't smoke too much.

I should stop worrying about this, it's not like I'm supposed to, but i still feel like i have to, because his wife hardly even stays home. Anyways, I'll put the kimchi into the pan and then go to wake up the kids.

It's better to make some baby food for kumi beforehand so i don't have to struggle to make it later when they both will be up.

Jungkook's POV

"You can stay there, i don't mind." I open my mouth to let the smoke out, having a hard time to swallow the heavy knot down my throat. "Oh babe, thank you so much, I'll make sure i get the project done as soon as possible so we can be together quickly." Eunwoo lies again, her sweet voice pretty similar to the way she used to ask me the same questions before too, but i was not aware of her lies back then, and now I'm sure she's going to get her shits together again.

"Kumi, wait." I cut the call and turn back at the sound of hanuel, knowing my baby and her little friend are coming this way. I hurry to finish my cigarette and i tap the ashes down before stubbing it onto the wall to throw it down.

"Hey-" hanuel slides the door of the garden to open it while i walk to these girls and kumi steps inside before hanuel chases her and she ends up colliding with me. 'oh," i catch her arms to not let her fall down back and dirty her adorable dress, "careful, sweetheart." I smile down at kumi and leave her. She slowly inclines her head up and smiles at me in a shy manner, her big sparkly eyes staring into mine before she steps back, her tiny finger toys with her lip and she giggles, biting on it.

She's too cute, she reminds me of hanuel when hanuel was smaller and so shy, just like this one.

"Are you okay?" Hanuel bends down and peeks in kumi's face, being my kind girl who follows the things well which I've taught her. "Yes," kumi nods and speaks in a low voice. The three of us turn around at the sound of june who enters, carrying a bowl in her hands. "Here you are," she glances at me and smiles at her little cousin, walking forth at her. "Gosh, i've searched for you everywhere, don't you run away now."

"Was she escaping her meal?" I chuckle at the older female who's voice is not stable and it feels like she ran too much around the whole house to make her chest rise and fall this heavily, "she literally was." She stares at kumi who laughs and hides behind me. "Oh, that's bad."
