Hyoyeon was pacing around the house since getting ready in the morning , today is the day. The first round of interview with the social workers and honestly, she has absolutely no idea what they would ask from her. She hope her foot in mouth disease will not act up today, today is an important day for her , for Nicole , for their daughter Mina. Yes , Mina is already her daughter. Not lawfully ,but for Hyoyeon and Nicole , Mina is their daughter.
Nicole herself was freaking out , her palm is sweaty and she felt the temperature in the house has risen tremendously. Hyoeyon walked towards her and put her arms around her shoulder and pulling her into a hug , she felt how quick her girlfriend's heart is beating. "Baby , don't worry. We can do this."
"What if we screw this up?"
"Then I will have my mummy to get things done for us..." Nicole said confidently , her mother is an assemblywoman in Korea and a very influential one. But the thing is , she has not confided in her mother about her decision to adopt Mina. She sighed , it will be a long talk with her mother after this. Hyoyeon kept taking deep breaths , Nicole was afraid her girlfriend would have a heart attack at this rate. "Calm down. We have this. No matter what happens , we will not give up. We will have Mina with us." Hyoeyon breathed out and followed her girlfriend's instructions, "We will be okay.. we will be fine." She whispered to herself while sitting back on the couch.
Suddenly the door bell rang, Hyoyeon jumped up and rushed to open the door. Infront of her is the interviewer , a woman in her late 50s , with short curly hair and a meanncing gaze. "You Kim Hyoyeon?" Hyoyeon nod her head and gestured the woman to enter the house , the woman introduced her self as Mrs Moon. She walked around the house and look around, "This house belongs to the both of you?"
"No.This house belongs to our friend Kwon Yuri and her wife Jung Jessica." Hyoyeon answered and watched as the woman gave a distasteful look.
"What are you doing here then? You don't do well in your job that you need to live in your friend's house?" That question irked Nicole up , she walked towards the both of them.
"Hello. Nicole Jung. Her girlfriend. I am a fashion designer and owner of a few boutique stores in Korea and a few in the States and Europe. I can assure you our financial is stable. Very stable that we can adopt a child."
"Her girlfriend?" The woman asked. Nicole and Hyoyeon nod their heads.
"Hmph... let's sit down and talk." They entered the dining room and the interviewer saw the playroom. "Are there more kids here?"
"There is. Our friend Yuri has three daughters with her wife , while another one has a baby girl." Nicole filled her in.
"Are all of you lesbians?" Hyoyeon was struck with the question.
"We are. We know each other since middle school and we supported each other through our own ups and downs." Nicole answered.
"Why are you guys here then if you both are so financially stable as you two mentioned?" She said coldly.
"We are here because our friend Kim Taeyeon and her wife gave birth around 9 months ago , and Taeyeon's mother was on a cruise holiday while she was in labor , so Yuri and her wife offered to help them with the baby while Taeyeon recovers. We are very close to each other , so we moved in too , to try and help each other out." Hyoyeon explained.
"Why do you want kids?"
"I think , any human once they have settled down , they would like to have a family and that is what Hyo and I are doing."
"What about stability ? Family normalcy? Can you give the little girl the stability she needs and the normalcy she deserves? From what I can see , all of you are leading a not so good lifestyle." That statemtn snapped the both of them. Hyoyeon sat straight in her seat and stared at the woman.
