Maya's POV.
"Let me hear you scream LA!" I yell into the microphone. The crowd screams louder. "It was a real honor preforming for you here tonight, thank you! I love you all, have a good night!" I wave. The crowd roars.
"We love you Maya!" I hear from offstage. I turn to see Jungkook, Hobi, and Laura smiling and giving me a thumbs up. I nod and head offstage.
"You're so talented." Hobi hugs me.
"Aww you're sweet." I smile.
"Come here, gorgeous. I love you and you killed it." Jungkook kisses me briefly. I walk over to Laura.
"You were wonderful, honey." Laura hugs me.
"Was it worth leaving Mina at home for the first time for?" I ask.
"Totally....but I want to get back to your house to see her." Laura smiles and then her face falls slightly.
"Same." Hobi nods at us.
"Pfffttt, you two are such helicopter parents." I whine as we walk.
"Hey she's only nine months old." Laura points out.
"Hey, my mom has had two kids. She can be left alone with a baby for a few hours." I argue.
"Yeah we trust your mom." Laura nods.
"But you don't trust me with her." I sigh.
"Maya...last time we all left you home alone without a babysitter we found you dangling from the ceiling fan with the kitchen covered in flour." Jungkook laughs.
"That was one time." I grumble.
"And one sturdy ceiling fan." Hobi points out.
"Eh fuck all of you." I huff.
"Language." Laura warns.
"Yes mom." I say sarcastically as security guards us outside. We get in an SUV and the driver takes us back to Jungkook and I's new house. We bought the a couple months ago and just now finished moving in. It's a modest house with two floors and four bedrooms. It was built in the 90's so it's modern but not sleek modern. I love it. When we get back to the house we creep in quietly as it is late at night and Mina is probably asleep upstairs in the first guest bedroom where Laura and Hobi have been staying the past couple of weeks. I moved my mom and dad into the third guest bedroom after Dad threw his back out while moving stuff in the garage. He couldn't work for weeks and they weren't going to be able to keep their old house for much longer. Mom cooks and helps keep the house clean. It works.
"Hola (hello)." Mom whispers from the living room.
"Hi Mama, how is Mina?" I ask.
"I put her down hours ago and she just woke up. She won't go back to bed." Mama laughs. We approach the living room and see Mama in her pajamas, robe, and slippers, standing up and swaying with a wide awake Mina in her arms.
"Hey Mi Mi." I say in a baby once and take her from my mom's arms. Mina makes a cute squeak noise.
"Who's Mom now?" Laura jokes.
"Shhhh..." I hush as I sway Mina. She yawns lightly and snuggles up in my arms. Her eyes slowly close and she begins to do a cute little snore.
"Oh my God, Maya is the baby whisperer." Laura jokes. Laura and I head upstairs with Mina and I place her in the pop up crib. She sleeps soundly.
"She looks just like her mama." I smile at Laura.
"You know Maya...you've been an amazing Aunt to Mina." Laura glows.
"Thanks!" I nod.

-a vlog camera adjusts its unfocused lens and zooms in a bit on Maya, she's sitting at a dinner table in the dining room, Laura and Hobi can be seen in the kitchen behind her-
"Hello all and welcome back to my channel. So I decided today would be a wonderful opportunity to vlog. Today we are-" Maya starts but is interrupted by a sound of breaking plates in the background.
"REALLY?!" Laura yells as Maya cringes.
-camera goes black....picture is restored with Maya sitting on the couch looking frustrated-
"Well that was a wonderful introduction to the hell known as my life." Maya huffs.
"You shouldn't complain, you've got a boyfriend half the world covets." Laura adds, from the safety of the kitchen.
"So today we are supposed to go to the mall because the boys need suits for some gala and they don't want to use wardrobe because they're a bunch of spoiled-" Maya gets cut off.
"Are you dissing me?" Jungkook comes up from behind the couch.
"No, darling." Maya says sarcastically. They both burst into laughter.
"I hate you." Jungkook walks away.
"Love you too." Maya cringes.
-camera fades out to common vlogger intro-

"What about this one?" Laura turns to me with more pink baby clothes.
"Cute." I say as I lean my head on my hand. I'm leaning on a nearby display.
"You seem uninterested." Laura narrows her eyes at me.
"I'm sorry I just feel uninspired today." I shrug and stand up straighter.
"Why?" Laura asks, placing the clothes in the basket. I pick up the baby carrier with Mina in it, off the ground.
"Well I just can't think of what to post on my channel. I feel...unaristic? Is that a word?" We move throughout the store, towards the check out.
"You'll find your mojo again." Laura shrugs as she goes to pay for the clothes. Something in the store across the mall catches my eye. I wander off to another store front. There's a poster of me from two concerts ago in a music store next to a BTS poster. I started preforming live not long ago and there were already posters of me. I put the baby carrier down for a second but Mina started fussing. I crouched down in front of her, unstrapped the buckles, and picked her up.
"Look Mina. It's Aunt Maya." I smile and point her to the poster. "And over here is your daddy and Uncle JK." I say in a baby voice. She squeaks an makes babbling noises. She begins to toy with my blue hair. "You love the color too? My girl." I kiss her cheek and she giggles. She tries to put a lock of blue hair into her mouth. "Ahhah...no no." I take the piece away with my free arm. The other one is holding her on my hip.
"You're so good with her." A voice says behind me. I turn to see a middle aged woman, staring at a display and then turning towards me.
"I try. It can be a struggle." I laugh lightly.
"How old is she?" The woman asks.
"She's nine months old." I smile and bounce Mina slightly to get a rise out of her.
"You're such a great mom." The woman smiles. Before I can say something else Jungkook comes over to me.
"I need your help I can't pick which suit." He sighs.
"Okay, I'll come." I nod.
"Is This your husband? You have a gorgeous daughter and wife too!" The woman smiles.
"Oh..." Jungkook stutters. I save him.
"Thank you! He's a lucky man." I nod with a smile. The woman walks off.
"Why'd you-" He starts.
"You were fumbling. It's easier to just say she's ours and move on." I shrug.
