9)Decisions Won't Change

[6:00am]

My hands worked skillfully as I flipped the pancakes in the pan.

It has been a few hours since I woke up for some reason, no matter how hard I tried sleep never came to me.

Here and there I would have a few seconds of dazing off but it was never deep enough for me to stop tossing lightly in Suho's arm. Sometimes I wonder how he can deal and continue sleeping with my continuos wiggling.

Until I felt a hand slip around my waist making me jolt slightly.

"Did anyone tell you it's rude to leave the bed after you spent the night together?" He joked pressing a kiss on my cheeks.

I blushed at his comment but decided to keep quiet.

"Baby, why are you up so early? You should be spent."

I turned swiftly, shushing his mouth incase Ms.Lee hears us.

"Can you not!"

Breakfast was quiet and relaxing. No calls from managers, no sudden plan changes and other business related things.

"Let's go on a date?"

I looked up in shocked...did he just say date?

"But..."

"Baby, it fine."

Honestly I felt nervous and excited at the same time. Although we were together we never went anywhere public together.

"Where are we going?" I asked for the 10th time although it's pretty clear he isn't going to tell me.

His eyes fixed on the road in front of us as we continued to drive to the destination.

"Patients. It's a surprise."

I huffed looking out the window, noticing we were further and further away from the city and more towards the country side.

Soon I began to recognize this place.

"Suho? Why are we here?" I asked getting nervous, growing anxious.

This was where I grew up and where my family lives. It's been years since I last contacted or even heard from them and Suho knew that. As a teen my parents disapproved my dream of becoming a barista that led to arguments and finally my decision of leaving.

He parked the car in the driveway of my childhood home, which still looks exactly the same as how I remembered it to look.

"Please Oppa, let's leave" I asked, gripping his arm before he could unbuckle his seat belt.

"Let's face them together...hmm?" With that he gently pushed my hands away and getting off the car to help me open my side of door.

I sat and refused as he came around my side. My emotions slowly flooding in, making me face the other way until I felt his hands laying on my knees.

"They really want to see you." He encouraged.

Before I knew, my body wash pulled to the doorway, nervously clinging onto his arm as we await the door to open.

"Coming" The door opened revealing the face of my mother. She hasn't changed much except for a few visible strands of grey hair.

"Eomma..." I whispered.

She stood frozen looking at the two of us. Until she slowly came back to reality.

"Mina? It's Mina!" She turned yelling for my father to come to the door.

"Appa..." I mumbled not wanting to face the two.

"Where have you been hmm..?" She asked coming closer to touch my face, tears start swelling up in her eyes.

"Well come in..." My father greeted, not showing much emotion just the way I remembered.

The four of us sat around the living room in silence not knowing what to say to each other.

"Eomma...Appa.." I whispered, getting the courage to break the silence.

"Did it work out? My father suddenly asked "Coffee shop?"

I nodded lightly not knowing what to say.

"Baby girl... Please move back. Eomma really missed you."

I took a shaky breathe. "Sorry Eomma...I'm here to tell you guys, I'm moving to Paris."

Suho turned to me giving me the look before excusing the two of us.

I followed behind him as he dragged the two of us back outside.

"Jagiya."

"What...I'm telling them the truth."

He opened his mouth but no words came out.

"Unlike you I didn't lie."

"Let's not argue again..." He replied taking in a breathe to control himself.

"I'm not arguing I'm just-"

The front door opened, my Appa stood. "Mina, I want to apologize for what I said to you. Appa just wanted the best for you...and thanks to Suho I finally had the chance to make it clear to you."

I was speechless, completely out of words.

"Mina, let's give our family another chance. Please stay."

A tear rolled down my eyes "Appa, I don't want to disappoint you but my decision isn't changing just like how my decision didn't change before."

I turned making my way back to the car, no longer able to hold my self together.

"Please I want to go home" I begged as I looked at Suho.
