"What is that?", Jisung asks.
"Uh nothing.", Felix takes the ring from his son's hand.

"Is that why you asked how we're doing? Minho was...he was going to propose?"

"I mean...well not now."
"And why do you have it?"

Before Felix answers the front door opens and Minho comes in. He was about to ask Felix for the ring but saw Jisung there too. Then Hyunjin comes in and there was silence.

"Sigh. Felix can I have the ring back?"
"So it is yours?", asks Jisung.

"It is."
"Are you asking?"
"I was planning to."

Jisung looks at the three of them.
"I need a minute.", he walks past and heads to the guest room.

He paces the floor back and forth with thoughts filling his mind. He stops when Felix enters the room alone.

"What do I do? I honestly don't know what to say. I can't say yes or no.", he lays on the bed face down.

"It's ok if you need time to think."
"I might take too long."
"How about you both wait and then go from there."

"Can you tell me what Hyunjin did?"
"Sure.", lies next to him and they face each other.

Felix told the story of the proposal from the beginning.
(Hyunlix's new relationship chapter from the first series)

"That is very special."
"I didn't even see it coming."
"How did you feel?"

"Happy and a bit nervous somehow. Just after that I found out I was pregnant. So my feelings were focused on that."

"How was that?"
"Terrifying. I had Hyunjin and his friends taking care of me and I was resistant."

"You are a difficult person to handle."
"Yah. I'm trying to comfort you."

"Just saying. If we were married I don't think I could've handled you like Hyunjin does."

"He really doesn't. He's always being himself and I come to my senses and start to feel bad then apologize."

"As you should."
"Yeah. It's what love is. Do you love Minho?"

"I do."
"Then things will happen naturally and it'll be alright.", he rests his hand on his cheek.

The older looks at the ring in Felix's hand.

In the living room.

"They've been in there for a while.", Minho points out.
"So? They're just talking."

"About breaking up with me again."
"Huh. You don't seem like the type to overthink."

"I'm not."
"Then take a seat and play with my son."

As soon as Minho sits down on the couch Jinhyun makes his way to him. He sits on his lap and giggles.

"Wow. You are a baby magnet."
"Shut up. I don't like kids."
"They sure like you. You should be a teacher for a daycare."

"Absolutely not. The worst idea you've ever had."
"Wasting your true potential."

"Shut up."
"Hmm. You have the degree so why not?"

Minho looks at him with shock. "How did you know about that?"
"I have ways."
"You looked through my files?!"

"Maybe."
"How dare you? You just snoop around other people's things?"

"It was a background check when you first started working with me."
"Bull-", he stops and covers the little one's ears. "Bullshit."

"I'm still the boss of you."
"No you're not. We work together. Painfully."

"If you can be a teacher I will be sure that Jinhyun is in your class."
"Yeah no."

"Why did you get the degree in the first place? Obviously it was your goal."

"You know nothing."

"Please? As my friend? I trust you full heartedly if you'd be his teacher. And he already loves you."

"No he doesn't."
"Yes he does. He's falling asleep on your lap."

"It means nothing. You just want to have the office all by yourself."
"Not just that. You can teach Lily too."

"Mmm nope."
"What do I have to do? Before you answer nothing stupid, disgusting, embarrassing or humiliating."

"Ask me with genuine like you mean it."
Hyunjin kneeled down and takes hold of his hand before pleading.

"Please, Minho? I need you and my children do too. I trust no one else but you. What do you say?"

The older looks at him and can tell he meant every word.
"Ugh. Fine. Whatever."

"Really?!"
"Uhh what's going on here?", Felix asked when he and Jisung entered the room.

Hyunjin lets go of the older's hand quick and stood up.
"Uh Nothing."

Later that night after dinner and when the kids are asleep, Hyunjin and Felix do the dishes as they talk.

"So what was that earlier? It looked like you were proposing to Minho."

"I was. He has a teaching degree and I asking..well literally begging him to teach Jinhyun when he goes to daycare."

"Wait. He has a teaching degree? From when?"
"Several years ago. He wanted to be a teacher but he says he doesn't like kids."

"But he was never a teacher?"

"No but Jinhyun loves him and I trust him more than a stranger so I propose that he becomes a teacher and teach the kids."

"And he agreed?"
"Yup. If he didn't already changed his mind."

"That's...very surprising. I don't wanna force him if he doesn't want to do it.

"He does. A hundred percent. When Lily is older they can both go. Or we go ahead and send Jinhyun first."

"Let's talk with Minho more about it."
