"Come on Irene-ah.. let's go"
"Okay !"
"Omo shhh don't talk too loud you'll wake mommy"
Tiffany woke up to the muffled conversations, footsteps and rustling sounds outside the bedroom door. She lifted the comforters to jump out off the bed but she immediately curled herself under it when the cold air stung her sleepy bare body. She stayed still and closed her eyes for awhile before peeking out to the digital clock on the nightstand. 08:30. Then, a bright pink note that was placed on the nightstand caught her attention. Her right hand reached out to grab the small piece of paper and brought it closer for her to read. Bright smile crept into her face right after she read the first sentence.
'I cooked for you and I didn't burn the whole house down :D It's in the kitchen. I hope you'll wake up soon before it gets cold. I'm out with Irene to the supermarket.. To get some apples. Be back soon. I love you 3 – Taetae'
"Ready ? Let's go now. Kajjaaa"
"Kajjaaaa"
She smiled after she heard the muffled cheerful voices. Tiffany felt happy for Taeyeon who got to spend some time with their daughter and was also happy for her daughter who finally able to spend time with Taeyeon. Moreover, she was happy for herself because it meant she can have another hour of rest. Tiffany reached her hands behind her and blindly roam her hand around the bed. When she found what she wanted, she pulled it and hugged it close to her chest. Taeyeon's lingering scent that invaded her nose made her smile once again. Then she curled her body even more under the warm comforter while hugging Taeyeon's pillow. Slowly and dreamily, she went back to her dreamland.

"What took them so long ?! Almost 2 hours in the supermarket ?!"
Tiffany had already ate the breakfast Taeyeon made for her and by then she had cleaned the all of the house's parts that she could think of. She couldn't stay still from being home alone without any job to do. She huffed once again and slumped on their bed before she suddenly heard a familiar sound of the door's creak, followed by muffled conversations and footsteps. And not long after that, the father and daughter pair came to sight, walking into the room suspiciously
"Hi mommy !", "Hi mommy !" The pair said cheerfully in the same time, with similar smiles on their faces
"I hope you guys didn't bought the whole supermarket and just go 'hi mommy' me" Tiffany scolded jokingly with a frown
"Of course we didn't ! We just did a little shopping ! Right, Irene ?" Irene nodded furiously and still couldn't wipe the smile on her face
"Do you want to see the present we got for you, mommy ?" The frown on Tiffany's face was replaced by a smile as she nodded
"Close your eyes.." And Tiffany did. Taeyeon quickly tiptoed outside and brought back a small pink basket. She gently put the basket down
"Open your eyes, Fany-ah"
Silence filled their room after Tiffany saw what were inside the basket. Worries started to crept into the pair's face as the woman who was sitting on the bed kept a straight face
"Seriously, Tae ? Apples ?"
Their gazes locked to the pink basket that was put in the floor between them. Inside, one white maltese and one black poodle, were confusedly and cutely looking at their new surroundings
