Three Way Split - k.nj + k.sj + j.hs

Heeyoung took another sip of coffee from her cup. She seemed to enjoy the flavor, which is one that Jin also likes, so I make it all the time. I'm glad she liked it, even though I thought it was weird for my son to drink lemon-honey flavored caffeine as well..

"So you're basically telling me that Bogyeong is the assistant of the Kim Sungmin? You're kidding me.. There's no way." My jaw dropped when Heeyoung told me her husband works for Kim Sungmin, a musician that this generation ignores.. But come on, he's so talented and handsome! ... Okay, scratch off the last part since he's like 50 years old, but still, I still think he's pretty cute~

"Nope! I have proof if you want some~" I could hear the hint of brag in her voice, but I didn't mind too much.

"Oh no, that's alright. I believe you.." I mentally sighed and went back to sipping my normal black roast. After I set down my cup, she continued talking.

"Even though Bogyeong sees him almost every single day of his life, I only got to talk to him once.. And it was awkward I tell you, I have absolutely nothing to talk about. Ninety percent of the time was just silence." She sighed disappointingly and hung her head, but immediately sprung her head back up to talk about something else about the beloved Kim Sungmin.

"Oh yeah, can I tell you something but promise not to tell anyone else?" She slightly whispered, even though we were the only ones in my house.

"Yeah?" I was eager to hear what she was about to say.

"Sungmin is making a new album.. And it's coming out in less than two weeks! But it's a secret though, because no one else knows besides his coworkers and such." I gasped.

"Seriously!?! Oh my gosh, it's been over 15 years!!" I tried to contain my excitement as best as I could. Luckily I set my cup down, other wise I would've spilled it all over Heeyoung and I.

"Yeah.. I'm excited too!" Heeyoung sipped her coffee yet again, but I could tell that something was a bit off about her.

"Heeyoung are you alright?"

There was a fiddle at the front door handle.

Heeyoung set her cup down next to mine.

"Yeah, why are you asking?"

The door opened..

"I'm home mom!" Jin walked in the door.. With Namjoon. Gosh, when is he not over at my home.. I can't argue, Jin is an adult and can do whatever he wants I guess..

"Oh, you just seem.. A bit off, by what I've noticed." I didn't want to get too personal with Heeyoung, I mean, we just met like less than 12 hours ago.

"Yeah, you're right, I haven't been my usual self lately.." Heeyoung made eye contact with Jin and Namjoon for about a second then looked away back at me. I tugged a smile on my lips and waved to greet my son and his boyfriend.

"What makes you say that?" I question again, as both the boys run upstairs to Jin's room. She was silent for a few seconds before she answered me.

"Sooyun, you promise you won't.. judge me?" She mumbled, I can tell she still sort of acts like a child. I slightly smiled and set a hand on her knee.

"Of course not." I responded softly, "Tell me anything you want, I'll listen." I let go of her when she made eye contact with me. She exhaled and began to speak.

"M.. my family consists of me, my husband my one child, which is my son, so not a big one. Like I said, Bogyeong is the assistant of Sungmin, so he spends time in his office for.. for more than 130 hours. That means that.. That I rarely get to see him.. And the my son.. He's.. he's an adult. He moved out of my home two years ago, and I never get any messages from him.. He's a.. A fashion designer and a.. Photography model.." Heeyoung made a "hic" sound, her eyes forming tears.
