The next day, was a big day for Tzuyu and also a big day for Nayeon, Jeongyeon and Momo.  

 

 

 

It was still early in the morning, the sun was not yet completely risen up. Sana was stirring in bed because she felt cold. Even though the thick blanket was comfortable wrapping herself, but the warmth that she always received wasn't there. Sana opened up her eyes and looked at the clock through her phone. It was 7 in the morning.  

 

 

 

"Tzuyu" she called her husband  

 

 

 

No respond. She turned and looked on the other side of the bed, it was empty. She straightened her back and looked around the room. Outside was still slightly dark. But then she heard the sound of basketball bouncing at the backyard. She got off the bed and went to the balcony. She peeked through the curtains. Then she saw her one and only Tzuyu playing basketball by himself. She smiled and quickly put on her robe. Sana made her way downstairs and exited the house through the back door. 

 

 

 

"He shoot, and he scores" she heard Tzuyu talking by himself 

 

 

 

"What are you doing?" Sana chuckled as she watched him from afar 

 

 

 

Tzuyu turned to look at her. Then he quickly smiled. 

 

 

 

"Oops did I wake you up?"  

 

 

 

"I was cold" she crossed her arms 

 

 

 

"Hehe sorry. I can't sleep" he bounced the orange ball 

 

 

 

"Nervous?" she asked 

 

 

 

"For now, a little bit" he spun the orange ball on his index finger 

 

 

 

"You'll be fine. I trust you, you can do it" Sana gave him the assurance smile 

 

 

 

Tzuyu smiled back. Then he signalled his wife to come to him, "Come here. Show me what you've got" 

 

 

 

Then Sana walked towards him. She stole the ball from him and threw it into the hoop. 

 

 

 

"2 points" she giggled 

 

 

"Not bad, for a shorty" he said 

 

 

 

"You calling me shorty?" she glared 

 

 

 

Then Tzuyu made an innocent face by looking at the sky while whistling. 

 

 

 

"I'm not a shorty! I'll prove it to you. Uhh. I can reach this hoop" she pointed the hoop which was hanging very high on top of her head 

 

 

 

"Are you sure, Sana?" Tzuyu asked with sarcasm 

 

 

 

Sana turned around and looked at the high hanging hoop. She raised her right arm upwards and tried very hard to reach it. Tzuyu just looked at her and chuckled. Looking at his pitiful wife, he decided to lift her up by hugging her waist. Then Sana reached the hoop with the tip of her fingers without realizing she was actually being lifted up. 

 

 

 

"Hah! I told you I can reach-" she looked down quickly because she can't feel the floor 

 

 

 

"Yeah you can reach it alright" Tzuyu laughed still lifting his wife up 

 

 

 

Then Sana felt Tzuyu tickling her waist. 

 

 

 

"Yah! Seobang! It tickles! Stop it! Haha!" Sana laughed 

 

 

 

Tzuyu slowly put her down and earned a gentle slap on his arm. He then held both sides of her waist and let the latter to wrap her arms around his neck. They both closed the gap between their faces and shared a passionate kiss. After the kiss, they glued their forehead together and looked into each other's eyes. 

 

 

 

"I love you" Tzuyu caressed Sana's cheek 

 

She smiled and replied, "I love you too" 

   

************** 

 

 

Later, after having their breakfast, Sana and Yoong got ready for Nayeon's graduation while Tzuyu got ready for his championship. However, Yoong couldn't stop whining because the little boy wanted to go watch his father play. 

 

 

 

"Umma, please! Yoong want to go watch appa play!" Yoong pouted 

 

 

 

"Yoong, appa already said that Yoong have to follow umma" Sana looked at her son who is now crossing his little arms 

 

Then Tzuyu came downstairs with his jersey and sweater on. He hung his bag over his shoulder.        "Hey what's wrong?" he asked as he set the bag on the floor.        "Yoong doesn't wanna follow me, seobang" Sana sighed        "Appa! Yoong want to follow appa!!" Yoong sat down on the floor with his crossed arms        "Yoong you can't follow appa because nobody can take care of you if you follow me. Appa will stay at the court the whole time and Yoong will be sitting alone at the bench then" Tzuyu squatted down to meet the his son's eye level        "But Yoong don't wanna follow umma! Yoong want to follow appa!" the little boy began tearing        "Hey hey, don't cry. Appa said don't cry" Tzuyu cupped Yoong's face    Then Yoong showed his teary puppy eyes. Tzuyu looked at him and slowly fall for it.        "Tzuyu" Sana interrupted        Tzuyu shrugged it off and ignored the cute teary puppy eyes.        "Yoong, listen to appa please?" he asked        Yoong just looked at his father. The little boy was still crying.        "Tears don't exist in man's eyes"         After hearing those words, Sana instantly smiled.        "No tears?" Yoong asked        "No. So Yoong cannot cry because you're my little man" said Tzuyu        Then the little boy wiped his tears away and just sniffed.         "So Yoong, appa know that you're a good boy. And a good boy will listen to what his parents say. Yoong follow umma okay?" Tzuyu carried his son into his arms        "Okay" Yoong nodded        "That's my good boy! Can appa get a kiss?" Tzuyu puckered his lips and the little boy kissed it.    "For some reason, I felt melted after hearing the words you said to him" Sana came and hugged him        "So you'll be fine later?" Tzuyu asked as he returned the hug. He was still carrying Yoong.        "We'll be fine. Will you be fine?" Sana looked at him        "I'll be great" he kissed her lips        "Please try and make it before Nayeon's turn"         "I will. I promise"        "Appa hwaiting!"         "Hwaiting!"       ***************      Meanwhile at Michaeng's house,         "Weeeeuuuuu wiouuuuu"         Chaeyoung was giving his little daughter, Seohyun, an aeroplane fly. He carried Seohyun above his head and ran around the house.      "Daddy faster faster!"         "Okay" he speed up         "Chaeyoung! I need to clip her hair!" Mina tried to chase them         "Hehe!" Seo
