Loving You the Second Time Around

CHAPTER 21

If two past lovers can remain friends, either they never were in love or they still are.

EUNJI'S POV

***

Morning came and I think I only slept for a few hours, and my head was spinning. Curse you, hangover!

Curse you, hangover!

"Gooood moooorning mommy! It's Christmas morning! Wake up, wake up, waaaakkeee uuuuuup!" Myeonji said while jumping up and down on my bed.

(I need to stick with story's timeline. Lol, so it's still Christmas.)

I was groaning because I was dizzy because of the motion and when I opened my eyes, it was a bit painful because of last night's crying.

Yeah I admit— I cried the moment I entered my room.

But I did the right thing... right? I don't want to complicate things for everyone.

"Mommy! Mommy! Wake up! We still got visitors downstairs. Come on!!" Myeonji continued.

"Alright, alright. Just please stop jumping up and down. Mom feels a little dizzy. Baby, calm down. Why are you so hyper— did you eat the chocolate cake?" I asked her with my strict tone.

She nodded and smiled at me, still jumping.

I sigh.

" I told you not to eat chocolate, especially if you still didn't eat breakfast." I slightly raised my voice.

"But mom I alread—"

" Enough, no more reasoning, baby." I acted like I am getting mad at her.

She stopped jumping and looked at me while pouting.

" Oh no, kiddo, stop pouting. That won't work out. You disobeyed Mommy's rules." I told her and stood up and bun my hair.

"Hey mommy— Myeonji already ate breakfast, you don't have to scold her."

I was startled when I heard a man's voice from behind. "Oh my gosh!"

With eyes widen, I saw three men peeking through the door of my room. I panicked and covered my face with my hands, leaving my eyes uncovered.

Unfortunately, I usually look bad when I wake up. My face is puffed up, and I still have dried saliva on my left cheek.

I heard Myeonji giggled with my reaction.

"Why are you guys still here?!" I shouted and pointed at them. They just laughed at me and went inside my room.

"Yaaah yaaah get out of my room!" 

But these men do not know what 'privacy' means and 'this is a woman's bedroom'.

"Don't worry mommy. We're just going to get Myeonji away from you. I'm afraid you didn't sleep well. You look so moody.." Kris oppa said.

I rolled my eyes at him. He took Myeonji and brought her up.

"Myeonji, get down first, all right?" Go to your other appas. Got it?"

"Oh, shut up Kris. I do not have a giant-annoying gummy guy as a son. Stop calling me mommy!" I responded but he only teased me with his smirk.

Myeonji only nodded and went down from Kris' arms and ran outside the room.

"Baby? Forgotten something? Hmm?" I tried to reach for Myeonji.

Her eyes widen and her lips formed into a big O, and clasped her hand as if she had figured something out. (Kids look so cute when they do these kinds of reactions. I really wanna punch them because of their cuteness. Lol sorry)
