A piercing scream reaches my ear as soon as I enter the living room, my eyes scanning the entire place for the sight of Elsa. She must have woke up to my absence and became inconsolable. Whenever she threw tantrums like this, it reminded me of her father.

I see Sofia kneeling in front of her at the far edge of the living room with a pack of chocolate stretched at Elsa who shakes her head and folds her arms around her bosom with a pout. Then she looks up and our eyes meet.

"Mommy?" She runs past Sofia over to me. I open my arms out for her as she runs in, sobbing softly.

"Sorry, my darling. Mommy is home now okay?" I smile, patting her back softly to soothe her back to sleep like I always do. Instead of remaining calm and allowing me to do my job, she disengages from the hug.

"Did you go to the meeting with my new big friend?" Confusion slates my expression for a while untill it hits me. Is she talking about Jungkook?

"No, darling. We are in Australia and your new friend is in Seoul."

"Oh!" Realisation dawns on her. The realisation that she must have thrown a tantrum all for nothing.

"When are we going back to Seoul?" The sudden question makes me raise a brow in question.

"Why?

"I want to see him. I made a promise..." The doorbell interrupts her from going further, making me rise up despite my curiosity to know what she is talking about. But my curiosity to know who is visiting this late overshadowed the curiosity of what she is insinuating. Sofia stands up to go get the door but I signal her to stay.

Having to deal with Elsa's tantrum should be enough for a night. She needs to retire for the night immediately. Something holds me back and I turn to see Elsa holding my hand before jumping forward so we can go to the door together.

Shaking my head at her silliness, I walk towards the door with our fingers entwined. The doorbell rings again and I pull the door open to see the last person i expect on my doorstep. Jungkook standing with a big bouquet of flowers sitting calmly in his hands.
