"Three days"

"Don't come to meet me until I call you."

Minho settled into his routine at home, attempting to distract himself from the constant anticipation of Jisung's call. He poured over documents and papers, but his mind kept drifting back to the three-day wait. Three days was all it took, he reminded himself, trying to stay positive.

As he sat at the table, he occasionally glanced at his phone, his eyes scanning the screen for any sign of a call or message. Sooyoung, his wife, caught him staring at his phone and raised an eyebrow, but she didn't say anything.

Later, as Minho was getting ready to head out, Sooyoung spoke up, "You got a missed call." Minho's heart skipped a beat as he quickly grabbed his phone and checked the caller ID. But his excitement was short-lived, as he saw that it wasn't Jisung on the other end. He felt a pang of disappointment and sighed deeply, knowing that Jisung wouldn't be calling him anytime soon.

Minho put his phone away and thanked Sooyoung with a gentle smile before heading out. Sooyoung watched him go, a look of concern on her face. She then turned her attention to their daughter, Sooin, and smiled. "Hey baby, wanna go out again today?" she asked, and in a few minutes, they were ready to head out for a stroll, just the two of them.

As they strolled hand in hand, the warm sunlight casting a gentle glow on their faces, Sooyoung smiled down at her little daughter, Sooin "Soo-inie, do you think Papa Min will be waiting for us?" she asked, her voice light and playful. Sooin's bright eyes sparkled with excitement as she looked up at her mother.

Sooyoung's heart swelled with love and affection for her little family. She hadn't seen him for a while, and she knew that Sooin missed him dearly. "I haven't seen him for a while, I think we both miss him now," she said, her voice tinged with a hint of wistfulness.

As they walked, the sound of birds chirping and leaves rustling in the breeze filled the air. Sooyoung felt a sense of peace wash over her, grateful for this special time with her daughter. She squeezed Sooin's hand gently, and Sooin looked up at her with a smile, her eyes shining with happiness.

The two of them continued their stroll, lost in their own little world of mother-daughter love and connection. The warmth of the sun, the beauty of nature, and the joy of each other's company filled their hearts with delight, making the world seem like a brighter, more loving place.

As they turned the corner, a cheerful voice called out to them, "Hi, my girls!" Sooyoung's face lit up with a warm smile as she turned to greet the speaker, and Sooin's eyes sparkled with excitement. She released her mother's hand and ran towards the man, a joyful smile on her face.

As Minhyun saw Sooin running towards him, he crouched down, opening his arms wide to receive her. Sooin threw herself into his arms, and Minhyun wrapped her in a tight hug, lifting her off the ground. Sooyoung followed close behind, a smile still plastered on her face. As she reached Minhyun, she wrapped her arms around him and Sooin, joining in the warm hug.

As they hugged, Minhyun said, "We miss you," Sooyoung replied, her voice filled with affection. "I miss my princesses too," Minhyun chuckled, hugging them back tightly.

As they pulled back, Minhyun looked at Sooyoung with interest, asking, "Well, how did you get to meet me today?" Sooyoung smiled mischievously. "Minho was leaving somewhere, and I had nothing to do at home either, so I called to meet you," she explained.

Minhyun's face lit up with a grin. "That's great. Where are we going now, then?" he asked, looking at Sooyoung and Sooin with excitement. Sooyoung's eyes sparkled with suggestions. "Anywhere, it's fine. How about taking Sooin to that baby café?" she asked, her voice filled with enthusiasm.
