Joong and Dunk were amazed at what Mile and Apo could pull off. Dunk no longer need to walk into Blizzard Entertainments to do his voice recording as a voice actor. He could do it out of the mansion as it had a voice recording studio. It even had a well equipped computer station for his work for Morro robotics even though he was not as active in it as before he met Joong.
Though Dunk was no longer under JAA entertainments, he did do a few public appearance when Joong requested it. So Mile and Apo had aptly reminded Joong that Dunk isn't allow to do any public appearance while he is pregnant. Joong agreed. Dunk hadn't made any appearance since the last fan meet and that was before they found out he was pregnant.
The only reason for Dunk to step out of the mansion was to visit Phi Jimmy at his clinic to check the progress of the baby. They would usually wait until it was after his office hours so that there were less eyes on them. They didn't want the public to find out. Dew accompanied Joong and Dunk for those visits much to Joong's annoyance. He didn't know why Dew needed to accompany them but he didn't have the heart to complain since Dunk was happy. It seemed that Dew had people hidden in plain sight to protect Dunk as well.
Joong had forgotten all about Dew the moment he saw the screen of the ultrasound machine. He was in tears when Phi Jimmy explained that the whooping sound was their baby's heart beat. He went on to explain what they were seeing in detail. Everything seemed to be looking good. Phi Jimmy was happy with Dunk and the baby's progress. Dunk had asked for a copy of the ultrasound to which Joong asked for another. Dunk was fascinated by the scan that he didn't notice Dew pulling Phi Jimmy aside. Joong, who didn't want to miss out on anything about Dunk and the baby, had followed them to the corner of the room.
"Is there a way to put Dunk under when the baby comes?" Dew whispered. Both Phi Jimmy and Joong had looked at Dew in confusion.
"Dunk.. has erm.. childhood trauma when it comes to the operating theatre." Both Phi Jimmy and Joong's eyes widen at this piece of news.
"Did someone experimented on him?" Phi Jimmy couldn't help but ask as that sounded like what Dew implied and for Dunk to be able to get pregnant as he is currently, fitted the category.
"I don't know. He doesn't remember." Dew whispered exasperatedly. Joong knew that Dew was hiding something at this point but when he saw Dunk looking around, he had went over to him. He saw Phi Jimmy gestured as if to say he'll see what he can do.

Dunk had shared the ultrasound scan with Phuwin excitedly. Phuwin was as excited as he was when he finally got the first glimpse of his niece/nephew. Dunk in his excitement had forgotten to ask. Phuwin chuckled at his twin's response.
When Dunk went over to share it with Mile and Apo, Joong had grabbed Phuwin over to ask him about his and Dunk's shared past. He was disappointed when Phuwin said he didn't remember much as well. Before Joong could press in further, Dunk called him over. He had asked Phuwin to take a picture of them to remember the day that they had gotten a glimpse of their little bean. Joong couldn't help but look at how excited Dunk was. Phuwin had found a heart ornament and placed it in their shared hands so that Joong may post on social media if he so choose to. Only he would know the meaning of that moment as he took a close up shot of them. Joong couldn't help the smile that creeped up on his face as they took their first family photo.

Joong finally gathered the courage and took the plunge to ask Apo what he knew about the twins once Dunk was asleep. Apo gestured towards him to have a sit, while he opened a bottle of whisky. He poured some for him as he did for himself and Mile.
"I assume that you are serious about Dunk? That you plan spend the rest of your life with him?" Apo raised his eyebrows at the end of the question.
"Yes, of course. I do plan on marrying him. It's just with the danger that all of you are implying is making it really hard for me to plan." Joong was all about plans. He had contingency plans if the first or second didn't work out so he was out of his element here. But Joong did show them the ring that he had bought for Dunk.
"Dunk would love it." Mile commented to which Apo nodded his head. Joong put it back in his pocket. He had been keeping it in his pocket, waiting for the right moment to pop the question.
"I think it would be best if you propose before the baby comes. We really don't know what is lying ahead of us." Apo sighed.
"Phuwin and Dunk aren't my real nephews." Apo disclosed. Joong was ready for it as Dunk had hinted before that it was likely the case.
"I found them when Dunk was trying to steal my bread. It had been days since Phuwin, Dew and him had last ate. It seemed as though they had escape from some hospital with what they were wearing. The usual stripped pajamas looking hospital clothes but there was no hospital near where I found them. They don't remember anything, all they said were bad men were chasing after them. I took them in but Dew's family found him on the way home from school one day. So he had left with them. Phuwin and Dunk couldn't remember anything about the past so they stayed with me. That's all I know." Joong could sense the truth in Apo's words but it felt like he wasn't telling everything he knew. If this was all he could get, he would gladly take it. He thanked Apo for the information and left.
Apo downed the whiskey in his glass as Joong walked out the door.
"You don't plan to tell him everything?" Mile asked.
"You know we can't, Dunk is already in danger. If he goes looking for them, Dunk will never forgive us. Let's hope we can get rid of them before they get to Dunk." Mile squeezed Apo's shoulder to convey the comfort that he needs.
