"Do you miss your family? Your parents? You know you can ask them to come over and stay," Jungkook says. Both of you lie on the bed facing each other.

"I do miss them obviously, but the change is fresh and I'm not lonely so it's okay," you say. You can't express how terribly you miss them. After living with them for so many years ever since you were born you are quite surprised how well you're living without them.

As much as you hated them while you lived with them under the same roof, you miss them a hundred times more. How your mother would nag you and your father would bicker with her over that.

Even if they doubted you at first whenever you rebelled to try something new, in the end they stood as your strongest supporters.
They just never expressed it explicitly. They were silent in their affections and support. And they failed to realise their words of motivation were more demotivating than they were motivating.

"First let halmoni visit us then we'll arrange for my parents to visit, maybe next month," you say.

"Alright," he says.

His hand slides down your back and before it can rest on your hip you shift back, away from him.

"I have to wake up early and cook and clean before halmoni arrives." He respectfully keeps his hand by his side but with a look of disappointment on his face.

You make several types of traditional dishes and side dishes to be served with each meal. You meal prep in advance and keep some snacks ready in the fridge. You don't know the old lady's eating habits or frequency or her digestion capabilities, you consider all that and keep things ready to avoid any resentment.

"Mom's kimchi is still there so you don't have to worry about that," Jungkook shows you another box of kimchi stored safely different from the one you two have been eating.

"And she's old so she doesn't eats much, you don't have to worry. She can get stubborn but you have to fight back," he tells you.

You look at him in disbelief, "Jungkook I can't fight my grandmother in law," you roll your eyes at him.

"Mom will come over day after tomorrow so you can go to work," he tells you. You sigh in relief.

"Halmoni is the oldest in our family. I know she should've checked in with us in advance before making any plans but we'll figure it out. I'll try to come home early," he caresses your cheeks and tucks your hair behind your ears.

"Please do, I'm really nervous about being alone with her once you leave," you hold onto him and he rubs your back trying to ease your worries.

"It'll be alright. If you're too worried, just call Hyewon. Nowadays she can take paid time off from work blaming the very troublesome first trimester. And halmoni loves Hyewon, she's never liked me or Ryuwon that much but Hyewon is the apple of her eye," Jungkook says.

"That brings me to when is Ryuwon coming to visit? She left in the middle of our wedding reception like some guest," you ask curious why he doesn't have good relations with his younger sister.

"I don't really know. She's not much of a family person. But once in a while she misses her dear brother and comes unannounced," he says. That worries you even more thinking if she'll show up someday when you're not in a position to offer hospitality.

He stands closer to you with your hip pressed to the counter. You smile as both of you inch closer for a kiss.

His tongue glides over yours, he bites gently on your lower lip. You keep your hand on his nape. Gently rub your fingertips on his scalp.

He tastes like coffee, you taste like toast. It's weird but still so heavenly to you.

He squeezes your breast from above your top then moves his hand downwards. He presses his palm between your thighs, cups your pussy with a finger stroking up and down your slit.
