Home is where the heart lies

May, 2023

“So he has two different colored eyes?”

It’s a beautifully sunny, May day and Lisa and Jennie are throwing a barbecue in their backyard with the usual gang. The twins is chasing Kuma around the yard. Jungkook is sitting in the kiddy pool playing with Julie  (Jennie was right, Julie has her father wrapped around her tiny two year old finger.) Seokjin and Jennie are grilling the food, having their much needed ‘Jinnie’ moment as Jungkook would say.

Lisa is sitting with Tzuyu, Jisoo, and Rosé on the porch as they all observe the five month old’s different colored eyes. She nods, answering the previous question asked by Rosé.

“It’s kinda sick!” Rosé cheers with a smile, “Little man looks so cool.” The group laughs at Rosé as she passes the baby

“Yeah you and Jennie have the most gorgeous eyes known to man and this little trouble maker gets one of each. I’m rioting…” Tzuyu adds.

“Superior genes I guess.” Lisa chuckles with a shrug. She looks out into the yard and smiles at the site. All her favorite people running around, playing, having a grand old time… it just makes her heart happy. She looks to the kiddy pool, where all the girls are climbing over Jungkook, laughing wildly with large smiles. She eye’s Jaehyun, Eunwoo, Bogum, and the boys, watching them sprint around the backyard, avoiding the spray of water, while Kuma is jumping into it. She then looks down at Seokjin and Jennie. Seokjin has his head thrown back in a booming laugh, while Jennie chuckles with a wide smile. It’s perfect really.

“Lisa, was the Heterochromia caused because of his premature birth?” Irene asks, making Lisa look away from the yard.

“No,” Lisa shakes her head. “When it happens at birth it’s either because of disease of the uterus or genetics. We assume it’s genetic since I do not in fact have any diseases. From whose genetics he got it, we don’t know.” Lisa finishes with a shrug.

“Hey, when’s that art event you’re planning?” Tzuyu asks from her laid back position in the deck chair.

“I’m scheduling it for October, since that’s National Arts and Humanities Month. I think I’m going to make it interactive, let people around town get involved in the arts for a night, and have separate sections that feature artists in the area.” The blonde answers.

“That sounds amazing, Lisa.” Irene states, adjusting Leo in her arms.

“Mommy!” Lisa turns to see Luca and Louis sprinting up the deck stairs. She doesn’t have time to react before her soaking wet sons throw themselves into her lap, effectively making her wet. She groans playfully at her now wet clothes and the boys laugh.

“You trouble makers are gonna get it!” She yells as she wraps her arms around them, stopping them from running away. “Jennie! Bring me a bucket of water!” Lisa calls down to her wife.

Jennie walks into the yard so she can look up onto the deck. She laughs when she sees her slightly damp wife, holding her cackling, dripping wet twins as they try to escape from their moms grip. She moves to the shed and pulls out a bucket, then fills it quickly with the water from hose.

The whole time she can hear the twins laughing in protest as they try to free themselves from their Mommy’s grip. Jennie runs the bucket of water up the steps, and when she reaches the top Lisa releases the twins and the two corner them.

“No mama!” They scream in protest, but they go unheard as Jennie hands the bucket to her wife and watches as she shows no mercy, and dumps the water over her kids. Everyone is watching with amusement when the boys get totally drenched with water. They scream as the cold water hits them, their floppy hair sticking to their foreheads.
