NO ONE'S POV

"Gosh," Taehyung cradled the baby boy in his arms, his eyes sparkling. "He's so..."

"Red," Yoongi finished flatly. "That kid is red,"

The younger boy slowly moved his head to give Yoongi a stony stare, before moving his attention back to his newborn brother.

"Cute. He's so cute,"

Li-na sat in the corner, watching how gently and carefully Taehyung handled the baby.

It was as though he was afraid to break it.

"Taehyungie, stop hogging your brother and let Yoongi and Li-na hold him," Jenna said, weakly smiling at them from where she lay in bed. Yeji was sat next to her, getting up occasionally to bring her water or cake.

Taemu and Yoonseok were in the other room, deciding to let the kids and womenfolk talk.

Taehyung passed the boy to Yoongi, who stared at it blankly, before passing him to Li-na.

"Wow," she grinned excitedly, "Aunty, he looks so much like you,"

"Really?" She laughed. "When Tae was a baby, everyone said that too, but now he's literally a copy of his father,"

"I hope this one looks like you, Aunt,"

"Me too,"

"So, what's his name?" Yeji asked. "Weren't you thinking Min-tae?"

"We were going to call him that, but changed to Jeon Gyu at last minute,"

"Kim Jeon Gyu," Li-na said. "It suits him,"

"Right?"

A few minutes passed, until Jenna whispered something to Yeji and closed her eyes.

"Alright, kids, you've held Gyu for long enough," Yeji said, clapping her hands. "Go in the other room now. Jenna's going to get some rest,"

The children nodded, Li-na handing Jeon Gyu back to Taehyung, who put him in his cradle.

They exited the room and went into the lounge, Yoongi and Taehyung sitting opposite each other and plunging into a conversation about some sort of business.

Li-na slumped into a single chair next to Yoongi, looking around boredly.

She stared at a vast picture adorning the wall, picking up titbits of the exchange between her brother and his best friend.

"Contracted, I made sure of it..."

"Think there'll be a company dinner, soon-"

"I'm thinking of hiring a new department manager for Unit 4..."

The conversation became more and more interesting and soon, she was focusing her whole attention on it.

"I told him if he couldn't, there'd be a gun at his throat. I guess he didn't believe me," Taehyung chuckled darkly, brushing back his thick, wavy hair.

"Serves him right. Did his wife run away?"

"Nope," he popped the 'p', smirking with the most unholy look on his face. "She tried seducing me,"

Yoongi rolled his eyes, fiddling with the chain of a thin silver bracelet that hung from his wrist. "What the fuck?"

"Exactly. Who'd think she would drop to her knees as soon as her husband died? At that, to his killer? If my future wife did that, I'd stab her to death in her next life,"

"Hmm," Yoongi agreed. Silence fell in the room as both boys glanced at Li-na, who pretended to play a game on her phone.

Seriously, she thought while they watched her. Go back to talking-
