Minji's Sitter | Taejin ✔️

Sixty-One

Jin allowed Minji to guide him to their blooming garden with all the flowers they had planted. He was in his eighth-month of being pregnant, with a scheduled due date in three weeks. Something he couldn't wait for it to happen.

During the beginning of his pregnancy, he was fine, except for his mood swings and morning sickness, but it all phased away when he got into his second trimester. He was fine in the third in the beginning, but as he got to the eighth month, he found himself to be a lot more tired than he usually was.

Minji was a sweetheart to him though, always helping him, even when he found it hard to put on his shoes, she was there to help him. She also helped him sort through his closet to find his daily wear, which now mainly consisted of him wearing Taehyung's shirts and sweatpants.

Every day, Minji made sure they walked around the yard, making sure Jin got his steps in, either they did it early in the mornings before she went to school, or in the evenings when she got home from school, depending on Jin's mood, and if he was not sleeping in the mornings.

On the weekends, they did it whenever with Taehyung joining them, which took a while for Minji to agree for him to join them as she was worried he would take over her time with her Jinnie. But Taehyung promised to walk behind them and not interrupt their moment.

Today, Minji told Jin she wanted them to relax in the garden together and that she had something she wanted to read to the baby while they rested there. Minji had been reading to Jin's stomach for a while now, saying she wanted to be a big sister who her little sister would look to for things, like how she had looked to Jin.

"Sit here," Minji told Jin, pointing to the chair Taehyung had specifically picked out for him, after not wanting him to sit on the hard benches they had around the garden.

Jin took a seat, smiling at Minji while looking at the folder she held in her hand, "What kind of book are you reading today?"

"A special one," Minji said with a smile, twirling the hem of her dress between her fingers.

Jin raised his eyebrows but didn't say anything, instead, he kept looking at Minji, waiting for her to begin her reading, he loved hearing her read and found it very cute. He knew for sure she was going to make an amazing sister.

Minji opened her folder and cleared her throat, looking up, her eyes connected with her father, who stood behind Jin, unbeknownst to him. Then she looked back at Jin and smiled, closing the folder, she brought it over to Jin.

"I think it's better if you read it, Appa."

Jin looked at her, confused, "are you sure?"

Minji shook her head and smile, "I am too nervous to read it."

"O-okay." Jin took the folder from her and opened it, tears falling down his face as he began reading it.

Minji had her hand on his stomach, drawing circles through his shirt as she looked at him, hopeful.

"D-does your father know this?"

Minji shook her head, smiling at Jin with a wide smile as her heart began racing.

Jin breathed out and wiped his eyes, pulling Minji into a hug. "Nothing would make me any happier than to have you as my daughter officially, of course, I will adopt you."

Minji pulled away with tears in her eyes, "really? does that mean I will be your first daughter, officially?"

"In my eyes, you have always been our first daughter, and that will never change, but it makes me happy to know you want me to be your Appa." Jin wipes Minji's tears and smiles at her, leaning down to kiss her forehead.

"Do you feel the same about being my husband too?" Taehyung surprises Jin by asking.

Jin turned in his chair to see Taehyung on one knee, holding a ring in his hand.

His tears intensified as he looked at Minji, then at Taehyung. "What's all this? Did you guys plan this?"

Minji nods her head smiling. "Come Appa, Daddy has something he wants to ask you." Minji helped a crying Jin up from his seat and walked him over towards Taehyung.

"Since you accepted her, can you take me too? Jin, our journey had been one of the craziest things I have ever experienced in my entire life. From hiring you as Minji's Sitter to us going to the farthest place, I think anyone could have gone to with not being able to tolerate each other, to us finding our way back. Something I didn't even think was possible when I started having feelings for you, I wanted to kick myself for it. Telling myself I was stupid, and trust me, I was, but not for liking you, I was crazy for messing things up in the beginning and not trying to understand the precious and delicate human that you.

Although delayed, I am happy I gave into my feelings, and I even more overjoyed that you gave into yours. Before you, I didn't know what it was like to actually grow with someone, but with you, I can say we have not only grown as a couple but as friends, parents, and as lovers. You make me happy, you make coming home worth it.

The undeniable love you have for Minji shows just how pure and unique your heart is. I know we have endured a lot together, some terrible days too, but now, we have been having a lot of better days. Days, I want us to continue having.

I also know it won't always be sunshine and rainbows, but I am okay with that, I think we are equipped to handle that as well. So, here I am hoping as you have accepted our Minji, can you accept me too, as your future husband, father of our kids, and lifetime friend, will you marry me Kim SeokJin?"

By the time Taehyung was finished talking, he too was in tears.

Jin was sniffling while looking from Minji to Taehyung, "Why are you both doing this to me? Of course, I will marry you-"

Before Jin could finish responding, Minji pulled his hand towards her dad. "Give him your hand so he can put the ring on."

Making Jin and Taehyung laugh.
