Are You Ready?

Big Brother Kyungsan

"Kyungie, are you ready to meet your baby sister?" Taehyung asks the toddler as he literally leaps into his arms.

"I ready!"

"I'm going to wait out here. Congratulations." Taehyung's mom says before kissing his forehead.

"I miss my mommy." Kyungsan says cheerily.

"Mommy is just in here." Taehyung opens the door to the room and walks in with Kyungsan on his hip. "There he is!"

"Hey, baby!" Jungkook smiles from where he lays on the bed with Areum fussing on his chest as he softly burps her just in case. Taehyung walks over and sets Kyungsan on the bed next to his mother and softly pets his hair.

"Mommy, baby!" Kyungsan smiles as he softly placed his hand on her shoulder for just a minute before pulling it away with a giggle and places it on Jungkook's still swollen stomach. "Baby sissy."

"No, Kyungie." Jungkook laughs. "Baby sissy is no longer in my tummy. She's right here." He sits up a little and turns Areum over so she's cradled in his arms. "Meet your baby sister, Areum."

"Hi, Areum. I'm oppa!" He pats his chest. The baby doesn't show much for response other than a little hum.

"She likes you, baby." Taehyung says as he kisses the boy's head and rubs his little shoulders.

"I'm not baby, daddy. I'm a man now." He scolds.

"Sorry." He laughs. "Mommy told me you carried his bag for him. That's very good of you, Kyungie."

"I know. Thank you." He Huns and turns his attention back to the baby.

"Can you give her a kiss?" Jungkook ask Kyungsan as he points to Areum's chubby cheek.

"I wuv you." He says and kisses Areum's cheek. The baby hums and kicks her feet making her parents laugh and tears well up in Jungkook's eyes. Hormones, gotta love em. "Mommy, what wrong?" He reaches out to caress Jungkook's hair and face, his other little hand on Areum's foot.

"Nothings wrong, baby, mommy's just happy." He sniffles and rubs Kyungsan's back to assure him he's okay.

"Mommy just happy sissy's here?" He asks as he lets Jungkook nuzzle his face against his tiny hand.

"Yeah, and that my baby boy is growing into such a fine little gentleman." He leans forward and Kyungsan gives him a little, wet kiss.

"Kyungie, do you want to try holding her?" Taehyung asks getting the toddler's attention.

"Yeah."

"Lets go wash your hands, buddy." Taehyung picks up his son and brings him to the sink and helps him wash his arms and hands before bringing him back to the bed. Both parents help the boy hold her securely, but regardless Jungkook's hand holds up her hand since Kyungsan's arms aren't long enough.

"Mommy, look! I hold her!" He smiles happily, a cute boxy-grin.

"Good job, baby!" Jungkook smiles.

"I'm going to go get my parents and ask my mom to take pictures of us all." Taehyung leans over their two little creations to give Jungkook a quick kiss on the lips before hurrying out of the room.

A week later...

"So you no talk at all?" Kyungsan asks but Areum just grunts in response. "Mommy say you cry when you want some-ting...ya know if you wearn to talk you could just ask him or daddy." The toddler rests his chin in his hands as he waits for her to give some sort of response. She just continues to lay relatively still in her bouncy seat. "You're so cute!" He coos and tries to tickle her feet, but the baby whimpers and Kyungsan pulls away. "I sowwy! Don't cry! I no tickle you no more! It's okie, see? No more tickles!" Kyungsan puts his hands up but Areum continues to fuss and the toddler panics. He tries to gently bounce the seat like Jungkook taught him. It works for only a minute. "I sowwy, sissy. I'll go get daddy. He's right over there!" He softly kisses her head and runs over to the kitchen when Taehyung is washing rice in the sink. Kyungsan's eyes started to fill with tears, feeling bad for making his baby sister cry, not knowing Taehyung heard everything. "I sowwy, daddy, I made baby sissy cry!" He sobs into Taehyung's leg that he is clinging to. He was going to tease or test the boy but he changes his mind when he realizes how bad Kyungsan really feels.
