"Baby, you're up early?" Dara saw her youngest walking towards at the beach but suddenly return his gazed when he saw his mom.
"Neh, eomma" Mashi hug his mom.
"Did you sleep well?" Dara put her arm around Mashiho's shoulder while they both walk towards the beach.
"Neh eomma, very well..." he smile from ear to ear.
"You seem so happy and enthusiast today my hamster, why?" Dara teasing her son.
"Eommmaaa..." Mashi whine, he still not used to his Mom pet name for him.
"Hahahahaha, tell me what makes you happy this early morning?" Dara can't contain her happiness seeing her son whine in annoyance.
"Hmmm nothing eomma, I'm just excited about the beach.. You know how much I love the beach" he said.
"Ohhh, I thought someone made you happy" Dara said looking at the emerald water.
"so-someone?" he said sounding innocent.
"Yeah, someone... A girlfriend perhaps?" Dara said smiling teasingly.
"A..aniyo... It's just the beach eomma" he said.
"hmmm arasso... Haru said she would like to play with you" Dara said. They both took a sit in a nearby cottage, enjoying the view.
"Why? I mean why me?" he said
"Well, I think she likes you as her Oppa. I think she sees your appa in you." Dara said looking at her son lovingly.
"hmmm ok eomma... I'll play with her later" Mashi stood up and went unto the water and soak his feet while Dara went on the other side of the beach and took some selfies.
"Shiho-yah!!" Jiyong called up his son who was busy running here and there.
"Oh appa, good morning!" Mashi stop from what he's doing and face his father.
"Good morning son, have you seen your Mom?" GD ask
"Yes Appa, she was there at the cottage" Mashi pointed the cottage where he left his Mom.
"Okay son, gomawo. Hey wait your uncle Taeyang was looking for you, he was at the pool side with Haru" GD told his son. Mashi was about to ask why but GD already left him.
He went to the pool side and there he saw Taeyang watching Haru who was taking a dip in the pool.
"Good morning uncle, Dad told me you were looking for me?" he greeted Taeyang whose face lighten up as soon as he saw Mashi.
"Yeah, can I ask you a favor?" Taeyang said glancing at Haru who did not notice Mashiho's presence.
"Of course uncle, what is it?" Mashiho smilingly answered.
"Could you watch Haru for a bit? Your aunt Hyorin message me, she is having a headache, I need to check her, please?" Taeyang begging look makes Mashi agree with no hesitation.
"sure uncle, no problem. Take your time" Mashiho said
"Gomawo Shiho-yah, Haru-yah play with your Mashiho Oppa okay? I'll go check your Mom okay?" Taeyang didn't wait for Haru's response. He run off to their room to check.on Hyorin.
"Oppa, you wanna swim with me?" Haru smiled innocently.
"Ani, I'll just watch you Haru-yah" he smiled to the lil' girl.
'coz if I do Haru-yah, then Kyu will accidentally saw us then he'd be jealous to death' Mashiho told himself and smile like an idiot.
"please oppa...?" Haru beg and pouted in disappointment.
"Hmmm arasso... I'll swim with you, how can I resist those cute pouts of yours?" he jokingly pinch Haru's cheek.
He took off his shirt and joined Haru at the pool.
'Good thing Kyu is still sleeping. And good thing I was able to put some sunblock before coming to the beach' he told himself.
The two enjoyed playing at the pool, they even laughed out loud. They were the only people swimming at the pool that early.
Meanwhile, Kyu in his room can't go back to sleep thinking of what have happened last night and earlier this morning.
He look at his phone and saw it was just 8:30 in the morning. He did everything to fall asleep but to his dismay his eyes wont cooperate.
He decided to go out for a walk, he tried to walk normally enduring the pain he got earlier good thing it doesn't sore that much now.
He heared a voice coming from the pool area. It was a familiar voice, he thought it was only Mashi on the pool so he decided to take a look but he was not able to continue his steps when he heared another voice, it was a girl.
'Is Mashi flirting with a girl? Is he cheating on me? But... How can he cheat on me when, for the fact, he did not said we are in a relatioship? Are we? Do I have the rights to get jealous? But we'd sex, is it enough to tell that we are in a relatioship? But whatever it is, I am mad at him. His fooling me, his playing my feelings.' he told himself clinching his fist.
He went out from where he was hiding and face Mashiho who was at first shocked of his presence. He was about to confront him when he suddenly notice the girl at Mashiho's back, it was a girl, a literal girl, not a lady but a little girl named, Haru.
'Aisht, what I was thinking about earlier? I've got jealous again with this kid? Stupid me thinking bad about my Mashi' he scolded himself and smile happily thinking thta he was just being paranoid.
"Hey why are you smiling like that?" Mashiho coldly said.
"Why the sudden coldness?" Junkyu reprimanded
"Don't you forget what we talked earlier about acting normal in front of others?" Mashiho whispered, Kyu then realized their plan.
"Haru-yah, where is your brother?" Kyu turned his attention to the lil girl.
"Doyoung oppa is still asleep, Junkyu oppa" Haru innocently answered. She didn't notice the two boys argument.
"oh okay, how long have you been swimming?" Kyu trying to get Haru's full attention so that the girl would forget that she was with Mashi.
"Long enough oppa" Haru said
"Okay, let's go. Your Mom was looking for you, enough swimming for now okay?" Kyu said grabbing Haru out of the pool.
The poor girl just obeyed to what Junkyu said, they both went back to Haru's room leaving Mashiho shaking his head while smiling in disbelief.
"This is how you get jealous Kyu? Hahaha you're really cute" Mashiho mumbles.
