Sewoo's POV

"You got it!" I heard the director's voice which made me go back to the reality. The room were filled of cheers and clapping.

"E-eh? Me? I... I got it?" Junkyu asked in confusion. The director told him that his acting was the best among the auditionees and they liked how he was able go give such a powerful adlib.

They were all congratulating him while I just took this as a chance to go out of the room and calm myself down.

"Ah! Mommy!" I saw Seojun and Seoyun running towards me and they hugged bith of my knees.

"Mommy! Lead Role? Who?" Seoyun asked as I picked up the both of them. Their face showed concern as soon as they noticed my dried tears.

They were about to cry so I immediately explained that I had to act but they're just not buying it.

The two of them started to cry and I looked around to search for my mom but I can't see her anywhere.

"Seoyun, Seojun! Mommy needed to cry earlier, okay? I didn't cry because someone hurt me..."

I tried to sway my body to calm them down but they're just too emotional.

"Oh! Why are you two crying?" I sighed in relief as I heard Asahi's voice. I was just about to give Seoyun to him but Junkyu suddenly arrived and took her from me.

"Seoyun-ah! I got the role!!!" She raised her up high and hugged her tight. Seoyun started to giggle which made Seojun try to go down and hug Junkyu's knees.

Junkyu noticed Seojun so he also picked him up and swayed his body, making the twins laugh.

"Hot choco!" Seoyu and Seojun exclaimed at the same time.

"Uh... Seojun, Seoyun... We're going to have lunch with Nana and Sahi right? Let's go!"

I tried to get the two of them but they clung onto Junkyu.

"Hot choco!!!" The twins exclaimed which made me sigh.

"Mommy will buy you some, okay? So come one, let's go..." They frantically shook their heads which made Junkyu smile.

"Do you want me to join you for lunch?" Junkyu asked the twins and they nodded. Junkyu looked at me as if he's asking for my permission but I just looked at Asahi.

"Well, that sounds good." Asahi said as he placed his arm over my shoulder.

"Ah! Seowoo!" I heard my mom's voice and I immediately saw her speed walking towards us.

She noticed Junkyu and was surprised. She suddenly pulled me away from the group and began to whisper.

"I don't think I'll be able to join you for lunch."

"What? Why?"

"I told you that I'm going to work at a hospital soon, right? They want me to go and familiarize myself on the hospital's facilities."

"O-okay..." She glanced at Junkyu again and smiled.

"Why does the twins look so happy with Junkyu?" I also looked at their direction and it seemed like Junkyu is telling stories to the twins.

"I know right... They're so comfortable with him... Its like they already know that he's their dad..."

"They're bound to know the truth sooner or later, Seowoo." She told me as she patted my back.

"I know... Go on mom. I can handle lunch with the twins and Sahi."

"And Junkyu?" She chuckled as I pouted. She hugged me tight and caressed the back of my head.

"I know that you missed him." I tried to stop my tears as I remembered all of the time that I wanted him to suddenly appear by my side or just tell him the truth.⁵

My mom pulled out of the hug and held my cheeks with both of her hands. Her phone suddenly rang and she looked sad.

"I'll be fine. I can handle this so go on." I gently pushed her away so she'll leave.

"See you later, okay? Just ask Asahi to bring you home." I nodded at her and watched her go out of the building.

"What about Mrs. Kang?" Asahi asked me when I arrived. I told him about where mom would go and he just nodded. Junkyu was also listening while playing with the twins.

"So where are we going to eat?" Junkyu asked as he gave Seojun a piggy back. Asahi is carrying Seoyun because she's asleep.

"Asahi hyung! Here you are!" Jeongwoo shouted which made Asahi glare at him. Jeongwoo noticed sleeping Seoyun so he whispered sorry.

"The CEO is calling for us."

"I have lunch with Seowoo and the twins."

"Really? Then Junkyu hyung should go with her instead of you." Asahi's eyebrows furrowed as he asked why.

"The CEO said that Junkyu hyung can skip today's meeting. She thought that he might be a little bit tired for the audition. Right, hyung?"

Junkyu immediately nodded while smiling.

"Can't you see how big his smile is? He's obviously not tired." Asahi sneered as he gently handed Seoyun onto my arms.

"Will you be alright?" I nodded at Asahi and gave him a thumbs up. He waved goodbye to Seojun and he left with Jeongwoo.

I glanced at Junkyu and he's smiling widely. I suddenly felt Seoyun moving and noticed that she woke up.

"Mo-Mommy... Zaza..." Seoyun whined.

"Zaza is at home, Baby..."

"I want Zaza!" Seoyun started to scream and cry.

"Do you want to go home already? You don't want to eat lunch at your favourite restaurant?"

Seoyun nodded and wiped her tears with her tiny hands. I looked at Seojun to ask if he want to go home too and he nodded.

"Junkyu, You can give him to me." I was about to get Seojun from him but he avoided me.

"I'll take you guys home! I have a van with me! Asahi was supposed to bring you home, right?"

"I can ride a taxi, Junkyu."

"I insist. I want to take you home."
