Yunho asked if they wanted anything. Suyun said she wanted ice cream. Minjoo and Minkyu agreed with that. So before Yunho took them home, he took them to an ice cream shop and bought what they wanted.

At home, the triplets immediately hunted and stormed into Mingi's room, hugging him tightly as if they hadn't seen each other in a thousand years.

Mingi didn't mind; he was actually happy, and his boredom from being at home all day was cured by the smiles of the kids, which felt like a healing injection. He was just nauseous again, his illness wouldn't be contagious. And these kids smelled like babies, so they wouldn't worsen his nausea.

Fortunately, the kids could be managed well. Minkyu and Suyun played chase inside this small house. Often, they bumped into tables or chairs because they were not used to the small space.

Seonghwa and Hongjoong had a spacious house; the kids could play freely. They even had a large garden behind their house. It was fortunate that these kids didn't get hurt playing in Yunho and Mingi's house.

Meanwhile, Minjoo helped Yunho prepare dinner, as she usually did at home to help Seonghwa. She was still an elementary school kid, not knowing how to cook. So she just helped Yunho fetch whatever he needed.

Dinner ready, the five of them ate devoutly after finishing their prayer, led by Minkyu, who had just been taught by Hongjoong how to pray before meals. Well, maybe a little interspersed with chatter because Minkyu and Suyun talked about the parts of the food they got.

Yunho and Mingi asked about what they did at school. And they responded well to their stories.

Every time they spent time with the kids when entrusted by their friends' children, their desire to have children grew deeper. This is how it feels. There is warmth in the house. Laughter. Joy. Noise. Very enjoyable.

So they couldn't wait to welcome Junghwan's arrival here.

In the evening, Seonghwa and Hongjoong came to pick them up. The triplets showed sad expressions because it felt too soon. They still missed their uncles. They still wanted to play with Yunho and Mingi, who could play with them more than their own parents.

Before parting, Minjoo opened her school bag, took something out, and handed it to Yunho.

"Minjoo's favorite teddy bear?" Yunho asked, confused. Minjoo always brought this teddy bear wherever she went, even to her school.

Minjoo nodded. "Because Minjoo really likes teddy bears, the baby sibling will surely like it too."

Yunho smiled genuinely. "But the baby sibling won't come for a while, Minjoo."

"In that case, the teddy bear will wait patiently."

Yunho felt touched. He could buy the teddy bear with his own money. But the sincerity of this child made Yunho feel that the object became very valuable and special. So, as Minjoo wished, Yunho would keep the teddy bear until Junghwan arrived.

The Kim family left in their car, Yunho continued to look at the teddy bear in his hand when standing on his porch.

"What are you doing, honey? Come in. It's very cold outside. The autumn night wind is really bad. If you're not careful, you could get sick and not be able to go to work tomorrow like me."

"I understand."

After placing the teddy bear in the closet, Yunho started peeling green mangoes for his husband's dessert.

"Is there anything else you want?" Yunho asked, so he could wash and peel other fruits at the same time.

"Kiwi and strawberries seem refreshing," Mingi replied.

"That's a very sour combination."

"And the sour taste is what can relieve my nausea."

They laughed together before Mingi joined in to peel the fruits he wanted.
