Gangster mom (#세븐틴Seventeen fanfic♡)

#35

I pressed the password into the system and opened the door, "Come in. Welcome to my house~" "Oh Eunseo ah, you're ba- who are you?" A very very familar voice rang from the kitchen. I whipped my head around and my eyes widened, "Oh my gosh! Mom! When did you come back?!"

I gasped in excitement and rushed into my Mom's arms that were held out wide open, giving her a tight bear hug. She patted my head and back, ruffling my hair,"I came back about an hour ago, I cooked lunch!" I let go of her and smiled happily. It feels so good to have my Mom back...

"Erm...hmm" Wonwoo oppa cleared his throat from behind me. I turned around and saw him standing all by himself awkwardly. I felt so bad for leaving him alone and giggled a little when I saw his awkward face. He looked so out of place in that situation.

Mom tapped my shoulder,"Your friend?" I nodded,"Yeah. You saw him that time when I went to see you off. He fetched me there. His name is Jeon Wonwoo." Wonwoo oppa smiled and bowed,"Nice to meet you, Mrs Kim." Mom patted his shoulder,"Auntie will do. By any chance, is your mother Jiyeon?" Wonwoo oppa nodded, "Yes, auntie."

"Your mother is my very good friend. And you look exactly like your mother, just the handsome version." Mom smiled,"Go sit down. I'll get you guys lunch." "Oh auntie, there's no need for me." Wonwoo oppa waved both of his hands. Mom frowned,"I don't accept rejections. Sit down." Wonwoo oppa nodded with no other choice.

I giggled at the sight of Wonwoo oppa and my Mom. He came over to me and sat next to me,"Is your Mom a gangster too?" I nodded,"Yup." He nodded to himself,"No wonder her behaviour." 'What about your Mom?" I asked. He shook his head,"She's not in the gang, she just married the gangster leader's son, who's the gangster leader now."

"And she was my classmate for 10 years in Primary and Secondary schools." Mom suddenly interrupted and set the plates down in front of us. "Wow! Mom, you haven't cooked this in forever!" I gasped in happiness as I grabbed my utensils. Wonwoo oppa grinned too,"I love this! 김치볶음밥! Kimchi Fried Rice!" Mom smiled a motherly smile,"That's great to hear."

In about 10 minutes, Wonwoo oppa and I gulped down our lunch. After that, I brought the dishes to the sink and started washing them. Mom immediately started a conversation with Wonwoo oppa. They seemed close already. They were laughing and smiling while chatting. I furrowed my eyebrows while trying to eavesdrop to what they were discussing, to no avail.

What are they talking about?

Wonwoo's P.O.V

"So, Jiyeon is your mother, right?" Auntie immediately started a conversation with me once Eunseo entered the kitchen. I nodded politely. She waved it off,"Nah, no need to be so polite, we're all the same, if you get what I mean." She wiggled her eyebrows at me. I laughed a little as I nodded my head,"Yup, I know exactly what you mean, Auntie." She means...our gangster background.

She continued,"You...must protect and cheer your mother up well okay? She's really sad and down nowadays. She barely laughed or smiled on our little trip. I'm very worried for her." I asked worriedly,"Why? What's wrong with her?" Auntie just shook her head,"She's just worried. Since your father is very very busy, and most of the time he doesn't have enough time to be with her. Especially when he has special missions, his position is stressing enough." She shook her head.

I nodded slowly,"So...Mom feels...neglected? That's impossible! I'm pretty sure that Auntie knows about the proposal Dad gave Mom. He spent 10 years of his life crushing on Mom." "But, according to her silly thoughts and stupid conclusions, he thinks that your father is cheating on her."Auntie sighed.

I frowned,"Isn't that horrible? I mean, he loves her so much, and she actually thinks he's cheating on her? Dad only spends so much time at work because he wants to protect Mom, especially as she doesn't understand or know anything about the gangster world. She'll get hurt easily, maybe even killed by the other gang!"

Auntie patted my back,"Chill, tell that to your mother, not me. And, I'm pretty sure I understand your father perfectly too. Don't blame your mother too much, she's just paranoid. Let's just say she doesn't have as much guts as me." Both of us burst out laughing.

Auntie smiled a warm smile at me,"I really like you, Wonwoo. You're a very good boy." My heart suddenly became warmer at her words. She stood up and was about to enter what seemed like her bedroom when turned around and whispered just enough so that I could hear.

"Good luck winning my daughter's heart, dear future-son-in-law~" My face turned red and I stood up, rubbing my sweaty hands on the back of my pants. Auntie winked at me,"Call it...woman instincts." She said finally in her normal voice as Eunseo came out of the kitchen, "Go do what you guys have to do. You can close the door, I'm very cool about it~" She sang as she closed the door to her room, leaving Eunseo and I with beetroot red faces.
