Paris, France - Part 1

 

“Imo, are you okay?,” Hani asked while looking at Yoona who was quietly eating her food since then. They were in a middle of having dinner after they finished with the check-in process at the hotel. Yuri suggested that they just have their dinner at the restaurant in the hotel since he’s still not feeling well.

 

“I’m okay, sweetie. Finish your food, okay?,” Yoona said as she smiled. But then she glared at Yuri who was blowing his hot chicken soup to cool it down, and acting nonchalant like nothing happened. She’s still salty about ‘stealing kiss’ scene at the airport earlier.

 

“Okay,” Hani obediently replied while eating her food. She then glancing at her father who was slowly eating his chicken soup.

 

“Daddy okay?,” Hani asked. Tonight she’s become more concern on both adults as they were not talking to each other since from the airport.

 

“Daddy’s okay, baby. Is your food okay?,” he replied.

 

“The food is okay, daddy,” Hani said. “Daddy want some?,” she offered her food to Yuri. Yuri just shook his head.

 

“It’s okay, sweetie. Just finish your food, arasso?,” he said. Hani then started giggling while looking at Yuri and Yoona, back and forth. Yuri and Yoona raised their brows in sync while looking at Hani weirdly.

 

“What’s wrong, baby? Why are you giggling?,” Yuri asked.

 

“Because imo and daddy want Hani to finish the food. Imo and daddy said the same thing. Imo and daddy are funny,” Hani replied with a giggle. Yuri and Yoona couldn’t help but to smile on her words. Indeed, they have showed the same concern when it comes to the little girl.

 

“We are not funny, baby. That means, we have the same concern towards you. We both love you, right, Yoona imo?,” Yuri earnestly said while glancing at Yoona and giving her his most genuine smile.

 

“Ermm.. y-yeah,” Yoona stuttered as she was caught off guard.

 

“Chincha? Imo loves Hani too?,” Hani innocently asked. Yoona just nodded and smiled. She have to admit, the more she spent her time with Hani, the more she grew to love her. Although Hani is just a six year old kid, sometimes the way of her thinking was just like a mature girl, and she could become a reliable friend to her. Probably because she grew up without a mother’s love has made her become more independent compared to other kids who were the same age as hers. But, when she was with Yuri, she's just being herself, adorable, childish and dork, just like her father. Those were her charms that she couldn’t resist. Kwon Hani indeed is a special friend to her.

 

“Thank you, imo,” Hani thanked her. She then scooped some mashed potatoes and brought the spoon to Yoona’s mouth. “Imo eat this,” she said. Yoona gladly opened and eat the mashed potatoes. Hani grinned happily.

 

“How about daddy? Daddy loves you too,” Yuri teasingly said while pointing at his mouth, wanting Hani to do the same.

 

“Daddy told Hani just now daddy don’t want Hani’s food,” she replied, causing Yoona chuckled on her words.

 

“Aiguu.. This brat!,” he mumbled while squinted his eye at his daughter. Hani just nonchalantly continued eating her mashed potatoes.

“I’m sorry,” Yuri apologized. He was carrying Hani into his arms as the little girl felt sleepy after having her dinner just now. They were standing in front of the elevator.

 

“I will forgive if you don't have any intention on it,” Yoona straightforwardly replied. Yuri just gulped nervously on her answer. He's indeed did that with intention, but he knew the consequences already. Yoona is not an easy girl to please. Besides, she just had broke up with Xiao, and that caused her to be more careful towards guys.

 

“Should I just try my luck?,” he thought. Not long after, the elevator’s door opened, and they waited for the people inside to get out first before they entered. After the door closed, the two turned into silence.

 

“Alright, Kwon Yuri. Just say it!,” he thought again. He cleared his throat, and that caused Hani startled, but then Yuri patted her back and the little girl fell into a sleep.

 

“Can you.. C-can you give me a chance?,” he stuttered as he felt nervous. He didn’t look at Yoona at all. Yoona furrowed her brows, not getting on what Yuri was saying.

 

“A chance for what?,” she asked.

 

“A chance to love you?,” he quickly said it. He could feel his chest was about to burst due to nervous feeling. Yoona looked at him in disbelief.

 

“Are you out of your mind?,” she snapped, causing Hani startled once again. Yuri quickly patted on his daughter’s back.

 

“Just give me a chance. I promise I will treat you better than Xiao,” he said in a slow tone.

 

“Urghh.. just.. don’t mention that brat’s name here. I feel like puking,” she groaned in anger.

 

“I’m sorry,” he quickly apologized. The elevator then stopped at the floor where their rooms were located. Yoona pressed the opened button and she let Yuri and Hani to get out first.

 

“Thanks,” he thanked her, but the latter didn’t respond any and just kept silent. They then heading to their respective rooms, and it happened that their rooms were just next to each other. Yoona touched her room key card against the lock, and when the door was clicked opened, she just entered inside without saying anything. Yuri just staring at the door and sighed. He then touched the room key card against the lock, and as the door opened, he carefully entered inside the room.

“Good morning, imo!,” Hani greeted Yoona cheerfully right after she opened the room’s door. Earlier, he heard someone pressed the doorbell, and when she looked through the peephole, she couldn’t see anyone. She carefully opened the door and she immediately smiled when she saw little Kwon Hani was standing in front of the door, greeting her.

 

“Good morning, sweetie. Ready to go for breakfast?,” Yoona asked.

 

“Ne, imo. Hani is ready!,” the little girl replied. But, then she felt curious when she saw Yuri was not around, only his daughter.

 

“Where’s your daddy, sweetie?,” she asked.

 

“Daddy said he can’t join us today. He just want to have a rest at the room,” Hani replied. Yoona furrowed her brows curiously.

 

“Did he still having a fever?,” she asked. The little girl nodded like a parrot.

 

“When daddy hug Hani to sleep last night, his body warm. Hani put hand on daddy’s forehead, and it’s still warm,” she said.

 

“Kids don’t lie, right?,” she thought. She then took Hani’s hand and holding it firmly. She closed the door and walking hand-in-hand with the little girl towards the elevator.

 

“I will check on him later,” she thought.

 

Yoona was about to take a sip on her coffee when suddenly she heard an incoming text message. She took her phone from the table, and immediately slide the phone screen, and opened the text message.

 

From: Kwon Yuri

 

Hi there! Sorry for troubling you again. Can you please take Hani with you? If she wants to buy anything just use the money which I put inside her sling bag. I still not feeling well and decided just to have a rest at the room. About last night, I want to apologize once again. Just forget of what I have said. I won’t ask you again.

 

Thanks!

 

“What? You have already gave up? Tchh.. Coward Kwon Yuri!,” she said while reading the text message. Hani who was busy eating her food suddenly turned to look at Yoona.

 

“What happen, imo?,” she asked.

 

“Oh! Ermm.. nothing, Hani ah. Eat your food slowly, arasso?,” she replied as she smiled.

 

“Dae,” the little girl said and continued eating her food. Yoona sighed and put her phone on the table.

 

Last night, she kept on thinking of what Yuri had said to her. She couldn’t sleep well as she kept tossed and her bed. She then lying flat and put her arm on her forehead.

 

“What should I do?,” she mumbled and sighed. Deep inside her heart, she wanted to give herself and Yuri a chance, but the scars left from her previous relationship has made her heart became afraid and unsure.

 

“I can’t tell Sunny about this. She will make fun of me,” she mumbled again. She stared at the ceiling of her room like there’ s something interesting on it. “Appa, eomma, what should I do? Should I give Yuri a chance? Appa, you used to tell me that he likes me when we were small back then. Does that mean he’s still likes me?,” she thought. She sighed once again, and while she was deep in her thought, she slowly felt sleepy and soon after, she drifted off to sleep.

 

“Imo!,” she startled when she felt her lap being patted many times. She looked at Hani, and the little girl looked at her in concern.

 

“W-wae, Hani ah?,” she asked.

 

“Hani called imo many times, but imo looks like a statue, not moving at all. Imo okay?” Hani said.

 

“Oh, mianhae, Hani ah. Imo was thinking of something,” she replied. The little girl giving her a confused look, but then she just shrugged as the food in front of her is more interesting than anything else.

 

“Hani ah,” Yoona called her. Hani immediately turned to look at the latter.

 

“Dae?,” she replied with still munching the food. Yoona smiled on her cuteness.

 

“Have you ever met your mother after she divorced?,” she asked. Hani just shook her head while continue munching her food. She swallowed the food before she answered.

 

“Daddy said mommy was busy. She didn’t have time to visit Hani,” the little girl just replied casually. Yoona was surprised with her answer. Her curiosity slowly kills.

 

“You don’t miss her?,” she asked. Hani paused for a while, but then she just shook her head.

 

“No. But, I miss Krystal mommy,” she replied with a faint smile. Yoona knew about it from Sunny, and she just caressing the little girl’s hair.

 

“Hani ah. Krystal mommy is your imo too. Don’t be sad, okay? You will meet her someday,” she said.

 

“Chincha, imo?,” the little girl asked. Yoona nodded and smiled.

 

“I’m sure she wants to meet you too. But right now she’s probably busy. Just be patience, okay sweetie?,” she replied.

 

“Okay, imo,” Hani obediently said, and continue eating her food.

 

“I wonder how will she react if me and Yuri will be together,” she thought. “Aigoo.. Are you out of your mind, Im Yoona?,” she thought again. She then teared a piece of garlic bread and dipped it into the mushroom soup before she eat it.

Hani and Yoona were enjoying their time visiting around the tourists hotspots in Paris. While they were enjoying their time, the little girl couldn't help but to miss her father.

 

“Your daddy will join us once he gets better, okay?,” Yoona said to Hani while they were sitting at the bench, enjoying eating ice cream.

 

“Hmm.. poor daddy,” the little said as she sighed. Yoona smiled after hearing it, and patted on the little girl’s head.

 

“It’s okay, sweetie. There will be another time you can spend a holiday with your daddy,” she said.

 

“Daddy always busy,” she replied while the ice cream.

 

“Your daddy is busy because he have to work, sweetie. He need to pay for your school fees, your food, your clothes, your allowance, and buying toys for you. In order to prepare all your needs, he have to work to get some money. Do you understand that?,” Yoona said as she explains.

 

“Dae, imo. Hani understand. Halmeoni and haraboji said the same thing before,” she casually replied. Yoona just giggled on her words.

 

“She must have been getting used to it. Poor Hani,” she thought. She then leaned closer and side hugging the little girl.

 

“Alright. Hani can tell imo what Hani want to do after this. Today is Hani’s day,” Yoona said.

 

“Chincha, imo?,” the little girl asked while looking at Yoona. She just nodded and smiled. Hani fell into silent, and put her index finger on her temple while thinking of something. Yoona just giggled silently on her cute act.

 

“Can we go at that tall tower with daddy tonight? Daddy said he want to go there,” Hani said while pointing at the Eiffel Tower which can be seen from their seats.

 

“Your daddy is still not feeling well, sweetie. We can go there after he get well enough, arasso?,” Yoona replied.

 

“Arasso,” Hani said slowly, feeling a bit disappointed. Yoona just patted on the little girl’s shoulder while continue eating her ice cream.

 

Meanwhile..

 

“Yes. For three person. Can you please put some fresh roses on the table? No, no. Just sparkling juices because my six years old daughter will be joining us for dinner. Yes, put the bills under my name. Thank you,” Yuri said as he ended the call. He was planning to bring Yoona and Hani for dinner at the restaurant in Eiffel Tower, and he just made a reservation for tonight. He felt a little better after taking the medicine, and after having enough sleep and rest. He immediately texted Yoona right after he made the reservation so that she and Hani will not going other places to have their dinner.

 

“You don’t give me a chance to love you, but you didn’t say that I can’t court you, right? Just wait, Im Yoona. This Kwon Yuri will do something to melt your stubborn heart,” Yuri mumbled while looking himself in front of the mirror inside the bathroom. He was checking on his face, and his facial hair started to grow since the day he fell sick. He then took the shaver and started to shave his facial hair, and taking a shower after that.

“Hani ya, your daddy said he will going to bring us for dinner at the restaurant in Eiffel Tower tonight,” Yoona delivered the good news to the little girl.

 

“Chincha, imo?,” Hani’s eyes lit up the moment she heard about it.

 

“Yes, sweetie. So, don’t be sad, okay? Your daddy has already getting better, and he’s ready to spend his time with you,” Yoona said.

 

“Yeayy! Hani can go to Eiffel Tower!,” the little girl cheered happily. Yoona smiled and ruffles Hani’s hair.

 

“Alright. Let’s get inside the museum,” she said as she holds the little girl's hand and they started walking to the main entrance of the museum’s building.

 

Meanwhile..

 

Yuri was planning to shop for a new clothes for the dinner tonight. He wanted to impress Yoona, so he decided to wear clothes that she likes. From where did he get the tips? Of course, no other than her best friend, Sunny!

 

“Yoong likes a man who dressed well, especially a man who wears a plain white shirt, and a pants with dark colors. I suggests you wear a black pants. I know it will looks good on you,Yul. You have a well-proportioned body and any clothes matches you well,” Sunny said through the phone call he made right after he finished taking a shower.

 

“Welcome, Sir!,” a man greeted him right after he entered, which he believes the owner of the men’s boutique shop.

 

“Thank you,” he thanked him.

 

“What can I do for you, Sir?,” the man asked.

 

“Ermm.. I’m looking for a long sleeves white shirt and black pants. I have a dinner with ermm..,” Yuri paused and scratched his not-so-itchy head as he was too embarrassed to tell the man. The man nodded understandingly and smiled.

 

“With a woman you like, isn’t it? It’s okay, don’t be shy, Sir. Come, let me help you to choose the suitable shirt and pants for your dinner,” the man said as he lead Yuri to the shirt section which contains various of design and colors to choose. After spending some time in choosing the suitable clothes and shoes, and after getting the suggestions from the boutique owner, he finally got a set of white shirt, black pants and shoes he desired.

 

“Believe me, Sir, your woman will immediately fall in love with you right after he saw you with this attire. You looked extremely handsome when you wear them,” the boutique owner said.

 

“Really?,” Yuri replied. The boutique owner nodded.

 

“Our products are made from the best quality of materials, Sir, I assure you that. If your woman doesn’t fall in love with you, you can return them to us, and we will return your money back. You can have my words, Sir,” the man said.

 

“Nah, it’s okay. If she doesn’t fall in love with me later, it’s not because of the clothes. Don’t worry, I still can wear it for work. Besides, it’s so comfortable and I like it,” Yuri replied as he smiled.

 

“Ah, thank you, Sir. Glad that you like it. Please do come again next time,” the man said.

 

“Sure do. Thank you,” Yuri replied as he heading out of the boutique shop.

That night

 

“Where’s your daddy, Hani ya? He said he will arrived in twenty minutes. Now it’s already an hour,” Yoona said. She couldn’t help but to feel pissed and worry at the same time.

 

“Maybe because of traffic jam, imo,” Hani replied.

 

“Yeah, maybe,” Yoona said as she nodded in agreement. The two were waiting at the bench near the main entrance of the Eiffel Tower area, and while they were busy chatting, they were surprised to see a handsome tall man who wearing a white shirt, black pants and a dark brown leather shoes suddenly approaching them.

 

“Sorry, girls I’m late. Got trapped in a traffic jam,” he said.

 

“Daddyy!,” Hani excitedly said while rushed towards him and hugged him. Yuri laughed and lifted Hani to carry her into his arms. Hani circled her tiny arms around Yuri’s neck and kissed his cheek.

 

“Hey, baby. Having fun with Yoona imo so far?,” he said as he kissed on his daughter’s cheek.

 

“Dae, daddy. Imo bring Hani to many interesting places to visit and we eat ice cream together,” she cheerfully said. She then scanned Yuri’s face and looked at his hair while furrowing her brows.

 

“Daddy shave and have a hair cut?,” she asked. After he had done with clothes shopping, he went to the hair salon to get a haircut.

 

“Yes, baby. Daddy’s face looked a bit messy and the facial hair started to grow. Daddy want to look good, so daddy shave it, and get a haircut,” Yuri replied. He could see from the corner of his eyes, Yoona was staring at him.

 

“Are you just come back from a job interview or something?,” she suddenly asked. Yuri and Hani immediately turned to look at her.

 

“No. Why?,” he replied while slowly walking towards Yoona with Hani in his arms.

 

“Ermm.. no-nothing,” she stuttered and quickly shifted her eyes to look elsewhere. Yuri have to stifle his giggle and pretended wearing a serious look.

 

“Let’s go. I have made a reservation,” he said nonchalant while waiting for Yoona to get up from her seat.

 

“Yeayy! Eat! Eat!,” Hani suddenly cheered, causing Yoona and Yuri chuckled on her cute antics.

 

“Welcome Sir, Maam!,” the waitress of the restaurant welcomed them.

 

“Thank you,” Yuri thanked him. “I’m Kwon Yuri and I have made a reservation for three persons,” he said.

 

“Ah, Mr. Kwon! Please follow me,” the waitress replied and lead them to the reserved table. He could see they put the fresh roses inside the crystal clear vase at the centre of the table. Yuri smiled as he satisfied with the small decoration like he wanted. He then put Hani to sit next to him, while Yoona sit opposite him. Her eyes couldn’t left from staring at the fresh roses on the table.

 

“She likes fresh roses, especially mixed pink, red and white roses,” he still remembered on what Sunny has told him. The waiter then laid the menu on the table.

 

“What do you want to eat, baby?,” Yuri asked Hani while showing her the menu. Hani flipped through the pages of the menu one by one. She then stopped at the page which shows the food pictures of variety kind of pasta.

 

“Can Hani eat this, daddy? It looks delicious,” she pointed at the cheese macaroni topped with button mushroom, broccoli and pepperoni.

 

“Sure, sweetie. Just order whatever you want tonight, okay?,” he said.

 

“Chinca? Can Hani order ice cream too?,” she excitedly asked. Yuri just nodded with a smile.

 

“Yeayy!, Daddy jjang!” Hani cheered while clapping her hands happily.

 

“What do you want to order, Young Princess?,” the waitress asked.

 

“I want this, and..,” she flipped through the dessert section page and pointed at the ice cream picture she wishes to have. “This,” she said and closed the menu.

 

“Alright. It will be served in twenty minutes, sweetie. How about you, Sir?,” the waiter asked.

 

“I would like to have Creamy Truffle Mushroom Pasta, and vanilla ice cream for dessert,” he said. Yoona furrowed her brows at Yuri’s order.

 

“Are you well enough to eat ice cream?,” she asked. Yuri just nodded and smiled instead. She then shrugged her shoulder and continue flipping the pages of the menu.

 

“How about you, Mrs. Kwon?,” the waitress asked her, and it made her stopped flipping the pages and her eyes widened in surprise. She could hear Yuri and Hani were chuckling.

 

“Ermm.. Sh-shrimp Scampi with Linguini, and S-Swiss Hazelnut Cake for dessert, thank you,” she stuttered and quickly closed the menu.

 

“You’re welcome, Mrs. Kwon. Alright. I will serve the drinks in a minute,” the waitress said as she collected back the menu and excused herself to the kitchen.

 

“Mrs. Kwon, your face is turning red,” Yuri teasingly said, causing Hani giggled and Yoona quickly glaring at him.

 

“Yeah, make fun of me tonight. I just let it slide because of Hani here,” she replied in annoyed tone.

 

“What if I say I seriously want you to be Mrs. Kwon?,” he said in serious tone.

 

“What?,” Yoona exclaimed.

 

“Daddy want to marry Yoona imo?,” Hani innocently asked Yuri.

 

“Whaaattt?,”
