"What?" My teeth showed up when I saw how wide her eyes were opened right now.

"What?" I asked back. And as if on cue, the traffic lights went green again.

The car kept rolling smoothly as she kept silent, still overwhelmed by my sudden revelation. Well, I couldn't blame her. Even I would be surprised if I were her.

"Didn't you have lots of questions earlier?" She asked, breaking the deafening silence surrounding us.

"Why didn't you told me about our son?" I asked right away.

I made a point that I was really stressing the word our since I was upset that he was already a year old but it was my first time knowing that he exists.

I've always wanted to see her with her baby bump, be with her while she's in labor, wince in pain as her grip tightens on my hands and more.

There are lots of things that I wanted to do, but she left.

"As I've said, I wanted you to move on." She replied without taking her sight off the window.

I sighed. "But you know how much I loved you. Leaving me would do nothing."

Next thing I knew, she was already choking. So I decided to pull over to pat and give her a bottled water, which was thankfully available inside my car.

"Thanks." She said as she recovered.

"Why did you have to choke right now?" I teased.

And as expected, her face turned red, which was one of the many things that I missed when she was gone. I missed the Rosé who always get flushed whenever I told her that I love her.

"I missed you." I uttered, which made her choke for the second time.

This time, instead of giving her another pat, I took her in my arms and hugged her so tight.

Damn, this feels so right. Having her in my arms again, without thinking of anything else.

"I missed you too."

I stopped breathing. I didn't expected her to reply. "You freezed, mr. Park." She teased back, which sent me back to reality.

I let go, then held her face next. Slowly, I went closer, and closer, until we were only an inch away from each other's lips.

"I missed this so much." I said in a seductive tone which wasn't actually planned. Damn, did I actually missed her this much?

She smiled, then slowly went nearer, until we heard a baby's cry.

I groaned and glared at Seon who was still crying. Chaeyoung, on the other hand, just patted me on my shoulder and went backseat to soothe him.

When she was settled, I started to drive again. I think I'll just talk to her when we get there.

"Give me Seon, go on and talk." I heard Jennie whisper to Chae who was hesitant at first but gave her our son anyway.

When we were both free, I immediately stood up and offered my hand to help her up but to my surprise, she just smiled at me and stood up by herself.
