IM with YOO

"You can do it. Break their bones and knock them out just in one punch." Seung Ho said patting JeongYeon's shoulder. JeongYeon nodded and looked at her parents.

"I want you to be safe. Don't get hurt." Her mother said caressing her cheek.

"I won't. But I can't guarantee that." JeongYeon said smiling awkwardly.

"You better be safe and come home without breaking your bone or I'll kick you out from the house."

"Okay dad. Noted. Now, can I go?"

"Good luck." Her mother said pinching her cheek. JeongYeon nodded and hugged her parents before leaving.

"I could have dropped her there." Seung Ho said fixing his tie.

"You have work too." His father said and they walked toward the living room.

"Dad, will you really make her work if she loses?" He asked doubting his intention.

"She needs to do something for her living. Boxing won't help her always." His father said sitting on the couch.

"Yeah, when she'll get married and will have children, she will have to leave boxing." His mother said looking at them.

"Marry? JeongYeon?" They both chuckled making her frown.

"Why? Can't she marry?"

"You think JeongYeon will marry anyone? Don't you remember what she said last time?" Her husband asked.

"I don't like anyone to interfere in my life and that's why I won't marry anyone." Seung Ho said mimicking JeongYeon and his father laughed again.

"People change." His mother said.

"I hope she'll find someone soon and will get married." His mother said looking down.

"I wonder who will be her partner." Seung Ho said looking at his father.

"A guy?" He asked.

"No dad. It should be a girl. JeongYeon is comfortable around them." Seung Ho said remembering how JeongYeon always got crushed by any beautiful girl.

"Well, I'll allow her then if she wants that." He said nodding.

"Mom, my captain." Siwon said showing his toy to NaYeon. NaYeon took it and put it in the box.

"Anything else?" She asked checking the boxes.

"Where is princess?" Siwon asked checking inside the box.

"Princess is in the kitchen." His granny said. Siwon ran toward the kitchen.

"Mom, is anything else left?" NaYeon asked.

"Did you see my favourite vase?" Her father asked cleaning his glasses.

"Yes, dad. I put it safely in that box." NaYeon said putting the clothes in the suitcase.

After an hour of packing, they were all set to leave the place. The men started putting the boxes inside the truck. NaYeon and her family looked at their house for a last time as it had the best memories of them.

"I'll come to this place one day." Siwon said holding NaYeon's finger.

"Why?" NaYeon asked looking at him.

"I'll buy this place because this is where I was born, right?" He said smiling.

"You're too young to do that." His granny said ruffling his hair.

"Then I'll grow up fast and will buy this place." Siwon said.

"Let's go." Mr Im said coming inside. They nodded and went out with him.

The truck driver discussed something with Mr Im while NaYeon settled inside the car with her mother and son. Her father was back after the discussion. He looked at their house for the last time and they waved to their house before he drove off to their new house.

It took only forty minutes to arrive at their new house. The car was stopped and NaYeon stepped out of the car with her family. Siwon ran toward their new house feeling excited and eager to go inside.

"Wait Siwon. Let me open it." His grandfather said and searched for the keys in his pocket.

"Here." He said fishing out the key and handed it to Siwon.

"Open it." NaYeon said making him jump in excitement.

Siwon opened the door and they entered inside. NaYeon switched on the lights of the living room. They heard the horn of the truck indicating that their things had arrived. Mr Im led the men to put the things inside the house while NaYeon went to check the rooms with her mother.

"Siwon, come here." NaYeon called him.

"Mom, we have a backyard too." Siwon said happily.

"But it's too small. I wanted to play football there." He said pouting.

"You can play in the front yard." His granny said.

"Mom, I saw an aunty in our neighbourhood. She was smiling at me." Siwon said checking the bathroom.

"Don't go close to any stranger." NaYeon said.

"I know, mom." He said and looked at her.

"So, which room is yours?" His granny asked.

"I'll sleep with mom." He said smirking.

"But I thought you're grown up now." NaYeon said smirking back.

"There are three bedrooms." Mr Im said.

"One is ours. One is for NaYeon but Siwon wants to sleep with her." Mrs Im said.

"Wait, I need space for my toys too. So...umm, I think I'll change my mind." Siwon said rubbing his chin. They crossed their arms and waited for his decision.

"So, I have decided that...I'll sleep in my room, alone with my friends." Siwon said and sighed.

"You can come to my room anytime." NaYeon said ruffling his hair.

"I need anyone's permission?" He asked smirking.

"He's really a version of NaYeon." Mr Im said chuckling.

"Let's finish unboxing now." Mrs Im said.

"Come on Siwon, help us." NaYeon said before walking out of the room.
