chapter 6

"I missed him. He's still annoying but i missed him. So so much." Byul frustratingly said while driving home.

Jin called his friends and told them that they were able to talk it out. He mentioned that he had confirmed it, Min-joo is his son. It really upsets him that the only thing he knew is his son's name and age. He was asking what kind of father is he if that's the only detail he knows.

Jimin, Jungkook and Taehyung comforted him and said that he just knew about his son today and that what he's feeling is valid. If he was able to know then he'd be the happiest, he'll be involved in everything.

They knew Jin, but they also let him understand that Byul worries about his son especially Jin is big in the industry. They try to see the situation and not only side on Jin.

They suggested telling this to his manager but Jin disagreed. He wanted to focus on being a father to his son and he can think of a way or a plan after. He has a lot of time since he's still on vacation.

His friends congratulated him and mentioned that they'll be supporting Jin with this one. They also said that if Jin is ready and settled they'll be visiting him.

The next day, Byul invited Solar and Hyejin for lunch, Min-joo is playing in the living room while waiting. She told them that he and Jin met up yesterday.

Both were shocked and were looking at Byul. She mentioned how Jin wants to be involved and that he wants Min-joo to know that he's the father.

She mentioned how she provoked him but he's tough. She's paranoid because he's not just some actor, he's famous. Byul can't help but think that his fans might have different reactions, especially Jin's company. Jin might get pressured and back out of being the father after criticism.

Solar on the other hand comforted her friend and says that she knows Jin. She saw how Jin loved Byul and how he took care of her before. How Jin is firm with every decision he'll make.

Hyejin just said that whatever Byul thinks that will be good for Min-joo then she'll be supporting her no matter what.

"And if ever you'll decide to let him get involved then be it. If he backs out along the way, you're not the one to blame. That's his." Solar added giving her friend a hug and hyejin joined as well.

They ate lunch together and enjoyed taking care and playing with Min-joo all afternoon.

Jaejoong, Byul's friend and the son of the mayor in town texted her.

Jaejoong can't help but feel butterflies in his stomach after byul agreed to go out.

They headed out and had a fun time with Min-joo. He's currently Min-joo's favorite uncle because he spoils him and treats him with nice meals and ice cream.

They enjoyed today especially watching Min-joo enjoy. It's like they're a family and that a local mentioned that they're cute together.

"Bye for a little while, buddy!" Jaejoong mentioned in a tweet.

Byul replied "have fun in sg, jaejoong! Min-joo will miss you for sure."

Hyejin replied "have fun in sg, hopefully you can gain confidence in admitting your feelings once you're back." To which Jaejoong replied with a silly emoji. 🤪

She was happy. Jaejoong also was happy knowing Byul will miss him too.

Byul is very thankful to have such great friends who love his son the same way she does. She's lucky to have them by her side while Min-joo's growing up. Both of them are inside the room and byul is looking at his son with so much adoration. She couldn't believe that she was able to bring someone into life, it was hard for her but it was worth it.

Min-joo's a smart kid. He's a fast learner and could understand certain situations that kid's his age don't.

However, byul doesn't think that it would be right to keep him away from his father just because he would understand his absence. That would be unfair.

"Min-joo.." byul called him and he hummed in response.

"Would you like to," she shut her eyes closed, nervous. "Would you like to meet your dad?" She asked, voice shaking.

Min-joo's eyes widened in surprise upon hearing that question. He stood up and jumped around.
"Really, mom? I'll see daddy?" He asked jumping from happiness.

Byul can't help it but let out a small smile, her eyes slowly tearing up seeing how his son looks genuinely happy and excited with the mere mention of meeting his father.

"Yes, min-joo. Really." Byul held his son's hands tight. "When do you want to see daddy?" She asked trying to hold her tears.

Min-joo longs for Jin's presence, she knows that.
"Tomorrow, I want to meet him tomorrow!" He said excited and hugs byul.

"That soon?" Byul laughed and Min-joo continued hugging her tight. "Yes, mommy! I'm excited to meet daddy!"

"Okay, i'll tell dad that you want to meet him soon. After that i'll tell you when he's here and ready to meet you. Okay?" Her son clapped happily.

"Son, your dad has another house, okay? He won't stay here so you might go to his house from time to time. Will that be okay?" She asked. Letting Min-joo understand.

"Okay." He nods, "and that's because you're not like aunt solar and uncle changsub?" His lips forming a small pout.

"Yes, son. It's because we're not like them."

"And it's also because uncle jaejoong is your uncle changsub?" Byul rolled her eyes and pinched his son's cheeks.

"No, uncle jaejoong is my friend. He's not my uncle changsub." His son just shrugged his shoulders and ran into his bed. Humming.

He's happy, Byul really hopes that everything will go well. For Min-joo.

Once Min-joo fell asleep, he called Jin's number. He immediately picked it up and byul mentioned that his son is ready to meet his father. When Jin was about to speak, she ended the call already.

Jin cried and was excited and extremely happy to be able to meet his son.

The next day, Jin went out to the mall to buy his son a lot of toys. He's very cautious with his surroundings but it's for his son's happiness. He doesn't care anymore if he gets caught buying toys.

Many fans tweeted and he was trending, fans were looking for him since there's a tiktok video of him and photos that he's in the mall buying toys. Some of them thought he's currently in a different country. Most fans wanted the video and photo deleted or taken down. Many fans want to respect his privacy and that they wanted him to enjoy his vacation and rest.

Jin went home and puts the toys inside his room. Some were in the sofa so that his son would be comforted since this is a new house for him.

His house has five bedrooms and he's planning to have the room next to him renovated to be his son's room and the other one will be the playroom and study room for his sweet Min-joo.

He's a mess! He's surely excited with what's next to come. He's nervous and happy to be able to meet his son.
