Armani finished cleaning everything up for dinner, and decided to go check on the kids. She walked up to his room, creaking the door open to an adorable sight. Elijah had his head rested on Aera's shoulder as a movie played in the background.

"Aera go get ready for bed love, it's getting late", Aera obeyed her mama, giving her a hug and kiss on the cheek goodnight as she walked out.

Elijah paused the movie as Mani sat down on the edge of the bed.

"We don't have to talk if you don't want to, I just wanted to make sure you're okay", she spoke softly.

Elijah made his way over to her, instantly melting into her arms as he did so. It surprised her at first, but she soon rubbed at his back softly. Tears started to fall from his eyes once again, shushing him sweetly.

"I-I'm sorry mama", he cried out over and over.

"Baby shh it's okay, mamas not mad none of
us are", she spoke, shushing the boy softly. They stayed like that, him being comforted in her arms.

"I know today wasn't the best, and I'm so sorry. I had a feeling it wouldn't go well, but you know what? You're still my same brave and strong boy yeah?".

"Don't feel like it", he mumbled. "Aera said her freshman year was so fun, what if mine isn't?", he questioned, his eyes only becoming glossier. Mani's heart broke into two at that, only bringing the boy closer into her arms.

Only comfort and reassurance spilled from her mouth, saying sweet nothings that made Elijah feel an ounce better.

"How about this, you stay home with me tomorrow and we could bake cookies or watch some movies. How does that sound?".

"Would Appa be okay with it?".

"Oh he won't mind, one day won't hurt", she replied, placing a kiss on his head as he laughed softly.

"You and your sister mean so much to me, I just want you two to be happy and enjoy school better than I did growing up", she spoke, rubbing his cheek with her thumb.

"I'll try mama, for you", he grinned.

"That's my boy, now get ready for bed okay?".

"Okay, I love you mama", hearing those words from her babies still stunned her at times. It made her realize that she was a very lucky mama.

"I love you too, bub", she smiled sweetly, blowing him a little kiss before closing his door.

She sighed with relief as she got ready for bed, throwing on nothing but one of Jimin's t-shirts. She went and laid down next to him, seeing he was waiting for her with open arms.

The married couple loved when the end of the day come around, when the sun was down and night had reached its peak. Being in each other's arms, wrapped and tangled in love and comfort.

They couldn't ask for anything better than that.

"Love? Do...Do you think the kids will ever wanna do what you do? Like joining the mafia and all", Armani asked as they watched a random movie in front of them.

The question surprised Jimin a bit, but he wasn't unprepared for it.

"Well", he sighed, rubbing his wife's waist under the covers. "If that time did come that they wanted to, I would teach and protect them with my life. I don't care how old they get or how independent they think they are. My father left me on my own to figure out the world, and I'm not letting that happen to my kids".

Armani felt relief hit her at his words, not doubting them for a second.

"That's what I love most about you, you would fight for them, fight for us", she replied, looking him in the eyes. They shared a loving kiss, a meaningful kiss just like any other time.

God, was Armani the luckiest woman.

"Have a good day, love!", Armani beamed.

"Be careful for us, drive safe!", Jimin exclaimed as Aera drove away in her new car. She had recently went and toke her drivers test, successfully passing on the first try. So now, she would drive herself to school. Yesterday she just wanted to be with her brother for the first day.

Elijah was sitting at the table, scarfing down a bowl of strawberry oatmeal.

"Slow down baby, you might get a stomach ache", Armani chuckled.
"Aish, you're addicted to strawberries like your uncle Tae Tae", Jimin joined in, laughing at the boy and his obsession with anything strawberry. Taehyung got him hooked at a very young age, and now he loved them with everything.

"Have a good day for me bub, I think your uncles and aunt JJ are gonna come see you later on. I thought maybe they could cheer you up", Elijah perked up at that, he loved seeing his uncles and aunt.

"You didn't have to ask them to come over, Appa", Elijah mumbled, his cheeks pink from embarrassment.

"Ah, they don't mind. Besides, you don't wanna see your uncle Tae Tae and Kookie? And surely aunt JJ would be very upset that you didn't want her over", Jimin teased.

Elijah quickly shook his head, not wanting to sound mean. It made the couple laugh and chuckle at the boy, reassuring him they were only teasing.

After Jimin left for work, that left the two to do whatever the younger boy pleased.

The first thing on their list was video games. They laid in Armani and Jimin's bed, battling against each other in Mortal Combat. It surprised Mani how good Elijah was, she would tickle him like crazy everytime she posed against him.

"How the hell are you so good at this?", Armani chuckled, her fingers moving fast along the game controller. For a second she was afraid they might cramp.

"Learned from Appa", he replied with a big smile as he had beat his mama once again.

"Now that is a lie, your Appa is terrible at Moral Combat", they both laughed at her words, nothing but big smiles being shared as they laid there comfortably.

The perfect mama and son moment.
