"Be safe on your trip? Okay?" Doyoung kissed the top of Jena's forehead at Incheon airport. Jena pouted and nodded cutely towards him back. She pecked his lips.

"We're only going to Jeju Island for one night, it's not that bad." Jena saw that Jeno and their mother getting ready to go to the security checkpoint. "Don't miss me too much."

"I'll miss you all day every day." Doyoung caressed her hair lovingly. Jena gave him a hug and left to go off with Jeno and their mother. "Love you."

"I'll text you when I arrive!" Jena waved at him, leaving him to go home. Doyoung was used to Jena's random getaways to Jeju or Japan with Jeno and their mother since they want to make up the missed times they were apart. "Love you too!"

Jena, Jeno and their mother finished all the logistics and now were waiting to board their gate. Their mother definitely took the lead so that their children can follow her quietly. They would throw each other questions from here and there but it would never be awkward. Jena enjoyed holding hands with her mother and so their hands were interlocked while walking earlier.

"How long has it been since you and Doyoung have been dating? 3 years now? So what you're 25 in Korean age?" Jeno asked Jena out of the blue while she was texting Doyoung that she arrived at the gate to depart for Jeju. Jena placed her phone down."

"Yeah, it's been 3 years." Jena responded to Jeno, giving him a weird glare. "And I'm not that old. You're only 23."

"Younger than you~" Jeno cooed while sticking out his tongue. Jena gave him a light smack on the arm because he was teasing her. "Have you guys talked about marriage?"

"We did, but right now it's too early for us. Maybe in 2-3 years? We want to be prepared for it rather than meeting up the social standards, you know Jeno?" Jena briefly explained her side. "But I would definitely say yes."

"You better." Jeno jokingly threatens her. "He talks about you all the time even when him and I hangout."

"I literally do the same, Jeno." Jena looked at him with a 'duh' expression.

"Come on kids, we need to board!" Mrs. Lee called out to Jena and Jeno as their brought their luggage along with them to board the airplane with their mother like little penguins.

Doyoung arrived at the Sun and Moon Cafe. It was still a popular cafe and he knew some of the people who worked there by now aside from Haein. He knew Ryujin, Aujin, Seoeun, Hangyeol, Yoonjae, and Sohyun. He though Sohyun was going to get fired because of her attitude but turns out college humbled her when she had fake friends and a boyfriend cheating on her. Now Sohyun was a much better person.

"The usual?" Ryujin met Doyoung at the cashier counter when he was placing his order. Ryujin charged him the discounted family/friend price. "Did Jena fly to Jeju yet?"

"Yeah, she did." Doyoung inserted his credit card to pay and Ryujin passed him the order receipt. "I was at the airport about 2 hours ago. She texted me that she landed safely and now she's getting food with Jeno and her mother."

"Gosh, I wish she still worked here. Her real job makes her exhausted but she makes loads. She's also a workaholic so she enjoyed it too. I mean I have a 9-5 job too for Computer Science but like I love this cafe to not leave it." Ryujin made Doyoung's drink and gave it to him. "Make sure that girl gets lot of rest and take her medications on time."

"I've been consistent about that since we started dating three years ago." Doyoung took a sip of his coffee. "Stellar as usual." He complimented her about the taste of coffee.
