Jiyeon as usual, busy with her work. She would go out in the morning, after sending Yunho and Mingi to kindergarten and return in the late night. Sometimes she doesn't have dinner at home because she comes home late. Luckily she has Hongjoong to take over her kids.

Her kids would ask when she wasn't together for dinner but Hongjoong handled it very well. He always makes sure they are never neglected and get enough attention. Of course he was very tired at the end of the day, but he never complained about anything to Jiyeon. Recently, Jiyeon raised his salary. It's doubled to his previous salary.

"Mama?" Yunho opened the door to Jiyeon's room at 11pm.

"Yunho. Why baby?" Jiyeon just sat on her bed.

"I can't sleep."

"How about Mingi?"

"He's sleeping well."

"Come here." Jiyeon patted her mattress.

"Can I sleep with you?"

Jiyeon smiled and nodded. "Lie here."

"Mama, cuddle."

"Here." Jiyeon spread her arms. Yunho landed his head on her arm and hugged his mom.

"Are you busy?"

"Huh?"

"You are always absent during dinner. Sometimes you come back late and we are already asleep. We only meet in the morning before you go to work. They miss you."

Jiyeon was silent for a moment, she has no words. Yunho is right, she is too busy and rarely has time with her kids. Sometimes even on weekends, she goes to work.

"I'm sorry baby. I don't spend much time with you. I'm such a workaholic before this, and still don't get used to it to reduce my working hours. I promise I will spend more time with you all after this. I will try to work less time and organize my time better. I'm sorry if you think I'm ignoring you. I never meant it."

"You promise?"

"Yes, I promise."

"I love you mama. We love you so much."

"I love you much too." Jiyeon kissed his forehead.

"Good night mama."

"Good night hun."

They soon fell asleep.

--

"Mama!" Wooyoung ran to hug his mom's legs.

"Aren't you going today?" San asked while holding his Shiber.

Jiyeon shook her head. "No, today is a special day. I will spend time with you all."

"What special?"

"We will go on a picnic today."

"Picnic?! Yeay!"

"Now?!"

"I was planning to go this morning but you all woke up late so we're going this evening. You can play in the park too."

"I'm not." Yunho said.

"Yes you're not but your brothers are."

"You the last one." Wooyoung pointed at San.

San said nothing and hugged his plushie.

"Okay enough, go do something before we have lunch."

"Let's watch Shrek." San suggested.

"I'm in. Let's go." Yunho then walked to the theatre room.

"Let's go." Wooyoung pulled Yeosang's hand.
