Three Years Later

To say everything went haywire after Namjoon was sent to prison was an understatement. Due to media and press Bangtan was forced to break up. I still keep in contact with all of the member's and they're all doing well. Jungkook and Taehyung are married and own a record shop downtown, Hoseok is now a dance teacher, Jin has his own cooking show, Yoongi is a solo artist releasing mixtapes and albums and Jimin is a primary school teacher.

I no longer live in an apartment, but a small townhouse in Seoul. Career-wise I'm no longer involved in dance however I join Hoseok's classes from time to time to help him out. Now I'm an interior designer, I get to work from home which is ideal for the little one.

The first few months of being pregnant were good, I was visiting Namjoon everyday during visiting hours. That's until the jail took away those rights and I haven't been able to talk to him since.

9 months in I gave birth to a beautiful baby girl named Kim Nari. Nari is now three, walking and talking and the best child anyone could ask for. Motherhood has been a struggle but very worth it. I'm lucky I have the support of the boys whenever I need them to look after or help with her. Nari has this beautiful long black hair and the prettiest deep brown eyes like her father, the same cheeks to go with it. She is the perfect mix of me and Namjoon, which makes my heart warm and sad at the same time. I've had to experience all the joys of Nari without him. He doesn't know whether he has a son or daughter, what their name is at all. What breaks my heart is that Nari loves her dad so much even though she has never met him. Next to her bed is a photo of him. She points at it smiling saying "Appa, Appa*" her face bright with joy. She calls the boys all uncle, especially Taehyung. Taehyung occasionally comes around asking to take Nari out, whether it be to the park, or to get ice-cream and she loves it. I don't know why him and Kookie haven't adopted yet, they love Nari like she's their own daughter. Life without Namjoon is so hard. I try and soldier on and be strong but some nights it's just too much. I either lock myself in my room in tears, or drunk calling Yoongi and being a mess. But I try my best to keep it together around my little girl and my clients.

Nari is sitting in her chair at the table eating her cereal while I'm updating my blog on my laptop across from her. She looks up at my smiling wide.

"What hunny?" I ask her.

"I love you muma" she giggles.

"And I love you too princess" I tell her. Nari is so precious, within seconds she can make my mood so bright and happy.

There's a knock on the door which frightens me a little, causing me to jump in my seat. Nari laughs as I get up to open the door. I lazily swing it open, meeting eyes with the person on the other side.

A tired yet happy and fresh looking Namjoon is standing right in front of me, a bouquet of flowers in his hands, accompanied by a wide smile.

I throw my arms around his shoulders embracing him. Tears roll down my face as I hug him tight, scared he might not be real. I pull away as he releases from the hug.

"Is it actually you?" I ask.

"Mace, come on" He laughs embracing me once again, his hands around my waist. He places his lips on mine hesitantly, the plumpness of them molding against mine. After the kiss I welcome him in the door.

"There's someone you have to meet".
