Mina usually spent her afternoons doing nothing. She was simply scrolling through instagram when she got a sudden DM from someone she didn't know.
"We're still meeting at ******* Right? At 6?" The person typed.
"Uh- who are you?" Mina replied back.
...
Two days after Mina's big reveal, life had taken on a peaceful rhythm for the family. Chaeyoung and Mina fell into a pattern of parenting their four daughters, balancing love, laughter, and a little bit of chaos. The bond between the two women had only grown stronger since Reya's birth, and their home was filled with warmth and joy that neither had experienced in a long time.
Chaeyoung stood in the kitchen on a lazy Saturday morning, making breakfast. The scent of pancakes and eggs filled the air as the sound of laughter from the living room floated through the house. Heejin and Ryujin were playing together, while Yuna toddled around, occasionally stopping to admire her older sisters. Mina sat on the couch, Reya had recently started showing interest in crawling. Mina supported her, making sure she wouldn't fall, while humming 'Super Shy' to the girl.

Chaeyoung peeked into the living room, smiling as she saw Mina's radiant expression. Despite everything they'd gone through, they had found their peace. "How's our little princess this morning?" Chaeyoung asked, bringing over a plate of pancakes for Mina.
"She's doing just fine," Mina said softly, looking down at Reya. "And so are we."
The day was slow and peaceful, with no grand events or press conferences to attend, just the normalcy they'd longed for. The girls played in the backyard later, Ryujin and Heejin chasing each other while Yuna picked flowers. Mina sat outside, watching them, while Chaeyoung took care of Reya's crazy blowout of a diaper.
As evening approached, and the girls were tucked into bed, Chaeyoung and Mina found themselves on the couch, enjoying the quiet moments together. Chaeyoung wrapped her arm around Mina, pulling her close. "Can you believe how far we've come?" she whispered, her voice filled with awe.
Mina smiled and leaned into her, her head resting against Chaeyoung's chest. "I can," she said. "Because we never stopped fighting. For our family, for each other."
Chaeyoung kissed the top of Mina's head, feeling overwhelmed by the love that surrounded them. "You know, I still think about that first night after Reya was born. The way she looked at you... I knew she was going to look just like you."
Mina chuckled softly, her eyes twinkling. "She's definitely got my feisty side. But she's also got your heart, Chae."
"She's got the best of both of us," Chaeyoung said, smiling as she thought of their daughters. "All four of them do." Despite Ryujin and Yuna not biologically being theirs, they still had every mannerism of the two women.
Mina's gaze softened, and she looked up at Chaeyoung, her heart full of love and gratitude. "I love you, Chaeyoung. More than words can say."
Chaeyoung tilted Mina's chin up gently, kissing her softly. "I love you too, Mina. Forever and always."
As they sat there, wrapped in each other's arms, the house quiet except for the faint sounds of their children sleeping, Mina and Chaeyoung knew that they had finally found their home. It wasn't just the place they lived; it was the love they shared, the family they had built, and the future they were creating together.
Who knows what would have happened if Chaeyoung hadn't mistakenly messaged Mina? It sure seemed to be the best Mistake she's ever done.
