Kris opened the door of the house carefully. While he went in, dragging his suitcase, he walked pass the living room in silent. He arrived in his room with much difficulty to keep the noise of the suitcase wheel low. Once he opened the bed room, the first thing he saw was Nana’s back. She’s still sleeping, not aware with his presence.

Kris quickly placed his luggage in the corner of the room and moved to the bath room, cleaning himself. He’s just back from a business trip in New York for his latest project. He stayed for 3 weeks there, leaving Hong Kong for a while. Even though he didn’t like to be stay away from his wife, he couldn’t do anything as Nana also busy with her beauty shop here. Currently she owned 3 branches of the beauty shop, making her busier than ever. She’s not only working in Hong Kong, she’s also sometimes going to her other branches in Seoul and Tokyo, along with Fei.

After Kris done washing himself and changed from his business suit to a pants and loose shirt, he went straight to the bed. He turned off all of his communication devices, avoiding any unnecessary call that might follow him back home. Once he jumped on the bed, he carefully moved his body, afraid that Nana might be awake because of him. From what he heard from Amber, lately Nana seemed to be more like a heavy sleeper. She got sleepy easily, maybe due to her fatigue taking care of the business.

“Kris? Is that you?” Nana’s hoarse voice was heard as she awakened from her sleep, looking at Kris with squinted eyes as her vision was still blurry. She’s not fully awake yet.

Kris touched her cheeks softly, smiling. “Yes, it’s me. Did I awake you?” he asked.

“Slightly… I heard some noises. What time is it now?” she asked him back, rubbing her eyes.

“It’s two in the morning. Come on, let’s sleep…” he motioned her to sleep again, placing her head to the pile of pillows on the bed.

“Why you came so late?” she asked as she looked at him lying next to her.

“I took the earliest flight after my meeting done... Three weeks were just too long for me to handle” he replied, put his hand on the back of his head, lying to his left side so he could see her. “Sleep now?”

She let out a small smile, yawning a bit and then nodded, closed her eyes. Kris smiled back and closed his eyes. He was just about to fall asleep when he felt Nana’s head moved from the pillow to his chest and hugged his waist, eyes closed. He chuckled and planted a kiss in her forehead, only God knows how much he missed her; her laugh, her talks, her angry face, and even her fussiness about his habit on skipping lunch when he’s too busy with work.

“This feels better” she whispered as she tightened her hug on him.

Kris didn’t say anything, but he immediately placed his left arm on the back of her neck and caressed her hair. Tonight he must have been the best sleep ever in the past three weeks. And by that, Kris fell deeply on his sleep hoping that he could spend the next 12 hours to sleep… at least that’s what he wished for. His calm serene morning was totally bid a goodbye right when he heard a very loud scream on his face.

“DADDYYYYYYY!”

Kris felt something hit his chest softly, making him opened one of his eyes, looking around. There he found the most cute angelic face baby girl looking at him, grinning happily as she sat on his stomach. The baby girl smiled, looking happy when she saw Kris opened both o his eyes.

“Oh, look who we have hereeee…” Kris woke up fast and grabbed the baby, landed her on the bed next to him. Nana was not there, replaced by pillows. It was morning already, with the bright sun light coming inside their room. The baby girl giggled and laughed as Kris tickled her body.

“Dadda stop it!” she screamed as Kris kept tickling her stomach, laughing in the middle of it. Kris couldn’t stop it as he saw his only daughter laughed, he just enjoyed teasing her.

“Are you sure you want me to stop? Then why you screamed on your dad so early in the morning, huh?” Kris playfully punished her.

“Aunt Amber said that I should scream at you to wake you up in the morning” she replied.

Kris eyebrows frowned as he heard her explanation. Oh Amber surely will pay for this, he thought. He stopped tickled her little daughter and took her to his lap. She smiled upon seeing him.

“Good morning, Daddy” she said sweetly, making Kris beamed happily.

“Good morning, Princess Catherine” he replied as he kissed her on the cheek. Other than Nana, this one little person here was one of his sources of happiness. The toddler smiled when her father called her name. “Did you miss me?” she asked.

Kris nodded surely. “Of course! I miss my princess a lot! Do you miss me?”

Catherine shyly nodded. “I miss you” she said as she kissed his lips happily. Kris smiled and ruffled her long wavy hair. He knew she got that hair from his wife, which he loves.

“Where’s mommy?” Kris asked Catherine as they walked out from his bedroom, lifted her.

“Kitchen” the five years old replied as she played with the tip of his hair and hugging his neck tightly. When they entered the kitchen, Nana was found preparing their breakfast. Kris placed Catherine on the island in the middle of the kitchen, softly gripped her sides, not wanting her to fall from there. She changed her attention from his hair to his shirt, stretching it according to her will. He laughed as he saw her, making Nana looked at both of them.

“Oh see that father and daughter, enjoying their self together and forget the mother” Nana commented as she placed the toast on the table, playfully rolled her eyes. Kris smiled towards her when he saw her walked on his directions to put the orange juice back to the fridge.

“Here comes the jealous mother” he responded as he stopped Nana by holding her waist, kissed her on the lips lightly. Nana grew her eyes bigger as he left her lips, glared at him that their daughter might see them kissing. He smiled a victorious grin.

“I got her eyes covered” he whispered as their 5 years old suddenly desperate to look with Kris palm covered her eyes. “Daddy I can’t see!” she ranted, hitting his stomach.

“Sorry, Princess. Daddy mistakenly placed his hand” he said to her as he took her to the table, enjoying breakfast. Nana shook her head and laughed. He winked at her and started to feed Catherine with the toast.

Nana could only chuckle at Kris. Even when they’re already married for 6 years, he kept acting like they’re still a newlywed couple. He’s still playful as she ever knows him and she’s still fussy from what he remembered. And Catherine’s presence just perfectly completed their happiness.

She didn’t realized that she’s pregnant that time, because her body didn’t change for the first two months of pregnancy, until she realized that she started to gain weight and she haven’t had her period for the past three months. As both were a young couple back then, the baby made them excited and nervous in the same time. They’re just clueless about what to do with the baby, until both of their mothers came and taught them about baby 101. But that’s 5 years ago; Kris and Nana currently had learned hard enough to be good and decent parents.

“Mommy, where’s my Honey’s Star?” she asked as she nowhere found her favorite star-shaped cereal on the table.

“It’s toast for this morning, Baby. Promise you I’ll get the cereal tomorrow. Is that okay?” Nana replied as she handed her the milk glass. Catherine pouted but then nodded slowly. “Thanks for understanding, Princess” Nana added.

“So, my dear Princess Catherine, what have you been doing at home when Dad’s away from here?” Kris asked her as he ate his toast.

“I guard mommy with the kungfu steps that Uncle Tao taught me” she answered, making her parents laugh.

“Kungfu? Tao came here?” Kris asked Nana. She slowly nodded. “He didn’t mention it to me”

“Surprise visit. He came as he knew that you’re away in New York, Honey” she told him, handing him his coffee mug. “Oh and I introduced him to Amber, seemed like they quite connected with those kungfu movement and rap music thingy…”

“Amber taught Catherine something bad. She screamed at me when I’m still sleeping” he ate the toast with annoyed face.

“But you’re awake now, right? She did the right thing” Nana stuck her tongue out.

“Mommy I want to see Mickey. Can we go to Mickey’s house?” Catherine suddenly cut in.

“Disneyland?” Kris asked her as he knew that her daughter was a big fan of Mickey Mouse. At the mention of Disneyland, Catherine happily nodded and started to clap her hands. “Can we go thereee?”

“But you’ve been there several times, Honey. Next month, okay?” Nana answered as she wiped the chocolate paste on Catherine’s lips.

“Do you want to visit Mickey’s other house?” Kris asked his daughter. Catherine looked with a confused face. “Mickey has other house?” she grew her eyes bigger in excitement.

Kris nodded. “Sure. You can see Mickey’s house in Tokyo or Paris or even LA. Do you want to see his houses there?”

“Don’t spoil her, Kris…” Nana warned him. As much as she wanted to shower her only daughter with a lot of attention and care, she didn’t want her to be a spoiled child. There’s always two polices in the household: the bad cop and the good cop; it was just Kris easily stole the good cop’s position and leaving Nana as the one who need to be the bad cop.

Kris spoiled Catherine a lot, more than her. Most of the time, he bought any types of plushy and toys for her. Nana even needs to spare another room only for her playing area.

“We haven’t been in any overseas trip with Catherine ever since we went to LA last year, Baby” he calmly replied. “And that time, we’re not visiting Disneyland”

“Catherine, don’t spoil the milk, Baby” Nana took the milk from Catherine’s hand, placing it on the table. “Does my princess forget how to act in the table?” she pinched her cheeks lightly.

“Mommy can we go to Mickey’s house?” she pleaded once again with her big eyes, making Nana wanted to pinch her cheek more. Her daughter was just looked like a doll.

“Only if you behave well, okay?” she softly her hair, smiling.

“I love you, Mommy” she replied, jumped to her lap and kissed her.

“I love you too, Baby” Nana affectionately kissed her back.

“Ok, does anyone wanted to kiss me?” Kris said to both of them, acting like he’s crying.

Catherine grinned and left Nana’s lap, moving to Kris. “I love love love love you, Dadda” she said as she kissed his cheeks several time, leaving a chocolate stain there.

“I’ve just got a sweet kiss”

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Nana…” Kris called his wife, but no reply. He has been looking at her in the kitchen, the living room, the bed room, but still no clue on where she was. He was just back from the office and found that the house was just empty. Catherine was not seen either, making him looking for their presence.

Kris then opened Catherine’s playing room and found that the toddler was asleep in Nana’s lap on the couch. He leaned on the doorframe and smiled, looking lovingly to both of them, his two precious treasures. He kneeled in front of the couch and carefully took Catherine from Nana, moving her to her bedroom. She clings on him, as she rested her arms on his neck, sleep talking about Mickey and playing on Disneyland. They finally visited Disneyland again last week, but it seemed like that’s not enough for her.

He watched her sleeping soundless. Her chubby cheeks with pink blush on it looked so cute on her. He couldn’t thank God much for giving him such a beautiful daughter like her. Ever since he saw her for the first time in the hospital and she took a grab of his thumb, he knew that he connected to her in so many ways. Kris her hair, smiled lovingly to his one and only daughter. 

After Kris placed Catherine on the bed and covered her with the blanket, he kissed her forehead and the bedside lamp, leaving her peacefully to the dream land. He went back again to the playing room, now waking the mother. Kris noticed that Nana totally changed into a heavy sleeper lately, that’s why when he her cheek and she didn’t awake, he’s not surprised at all. He decided to lift her with both of his arms.

Nana awakened when Kris placed her on the bed. Her hands were still on his neck when she opened her eyes.

“Oh… Did I fell asleep again?” she asked him.

Kris sat next to her on the bed, silently nod. “Do you feel too tired lately?”

“Hmm, what do you mean by that?” she asked him back, took his hand and played with his fingers.

“I mean, you do the beauty shop and also take care of Catherine. You took her every time she’s back from school and you also cleaned the house. It’s either you need a maid to help you or you just need to quit the business, Baby. Leave it for a while…” Kris said softly, rubbed her cheek with his thumb.

“I enjoyed this, Kris… I’ll retire if I think I couldn’t handle it anymore, okay?”

“I don’t want you to tire yourself…” he touched the tip of her nose. “Thank you for being a good wife and a good mother, Darling”

She smiled and squeezed his hand lightly. She was about to say something but Kris cut in.

“Anyway, have you gained your weight? Why is it so hard to take you to the bedroom?” he said jokingly. Kris surely had no idea what waited him after he said that.

Nana glared at him and attacked Kris with punches. Kris laughed at her, asking her to stop, but she continued by tickled him hard. “Ok, Baby. Sorry…” he asked for a mercy.

“So you will leave me if I become fat?” she asked him, pouted.

“No”

“Lie”

“No, I love you a lot. I love you for you. And you’re changing your body shape because of me also right? Maybe if you’re not pregnant and gave a birth to baby, your body will stay the same. But I’m fine with that, Honey…” he said, winked at her.

She rolled her eyes. “You know what? You’re not helping at all… It’s just like you clearly saying that I’m changed now. I’m getting fatter and you’ll stop love me…”

Kris kissed her suddenly, making her stopped tickling him. He deepened the kiss when he knew she’s not moving again, waiting for her to kiss him back. She did, and he smiled over it.

“Do you want to go somewhere?” he asked when they’re done the kissing which mixed with a lot of ‘I love you’ whispers.

“Where?”

“I don’t know. Just somewhere, for a short holiday. Oh!” he remembered something. “Next month maybe I’ll be going to Paris for a conference. Maybe, we can take a day off. We can spend the weekend after the conference there. Hmm? What do you think?”

“Catherine?” she reminded him that they’re now having a daughter that needs to be taken care of.

“We can always drop her in Seoul to have a holiday with her halmoni dan harabeoji” Kris replied playfully.

She giggled and slapped his arms. “How cruel…”

“So what are you saying about Paris?”

She shrugged, making him looked confused. Nana never hesitated to go on a trip previously.

“I don’t know, maybe the doctor won’t let me go out if it’s next month?”

“Why it has to do with the doctor? Are you sick somewhere?” he looked at her with concerned. She looked fine, despite her fatigue look.

“You know, maybe I’ll need a maid soon…” she hung her words, looking for his reaction. “I’ll have to take care more persons here…” she paused for a while.

“What are you trying to say, Honey?” he’s totally confused now.

“Well, we’ll have a new family member…” she placed his hand on her stomach. Kris eyes grew bigger as he got what she said.

“So, it’s… another baby?” he asked.

“Baby number two” Nana replied, holding her laughter.

“Really? I mean…seriously? Ba-by?” he still couldn’t believe what he heard. “I’m going to have another baby?”

“Yes, Kris… Catherine will have a sibling now…” Nana confirmed his thought.

She placed another kiss on his lips. “Congratulation…” she said to him.

“I love you…” he said softly.

“You said too many I love you, Kris… But for sure, I love you too…” she replied as she kissed him and hugged him after that.

“I’m beyond happy, Love” he whispered when he placed his chin on her shoulder, tightly wrapped her on his arm. “When are you going to visit the doctor again?”

“Mmm…” she changed their sitting position, leaning on the pillow while taking Kris hand that wrapped her shoulder, rubbing it softly. “Tomorrow. Why?”

“I’ll have to go with you and make sure everything’s okay…” he squinted his eyes. Nana laughed at his expression.

“Uh, Doctor Wu seemed to coming back here again…” she said in woo.

When she first pregnant, Kris was awkward not being too careful with everything he even didn’t let her carry her own handbag which was really light. He acted more protective than the doctor. But she loved that, his enormous attention towards her.

“I couldn’t wait to see the baby bump” he commented, caressing her stomach.

“Why?” 

“You’re the iest when you’re pregnant, Honey. The baby bump, the glow of your skin…” he her arm, kissing it.

“Are you forgetting that my skin is being stretched during my pregnancy?” she commented, pulling his ear. “I’m going to be fat again, don’t forget that you’ll still have to love me…”

Kris giggled. “Haven’t you heard enough about me loving you all the time?”

Nana chuckled, letting out a smile towards him. She’s fine having her body weight gained during the pregnancy. She loves the baby and would do everything for the sake of it. Gaining weight, having a hard time to walk, and even almost fainting when she delivered Catherine, made her realized how precious it was to become a mother. And she couldn’t wait to experience it again.

“What do you think the baby will be? A boy or a girl?” she asked him, caressing the back of his hair as Kris suddenly put his head on her lap.

“Boy or girl is the same for me… As long as the baby healthy…” he replied as he looked at her. Looking her from her lap, Kris smiled happily as he found that she’s just going to born another child of him. He put his hands on her jawline, taking her down to him. She bites her lower lips, a bit hesitant before following his lead to kiss him. Kris moved up a bit, but before he could attach his lips to her…

“Mommyyyy” Catherine’s voice was heard around the house.

Again, they chuckled and laughed. Kids surely like to interfere their kissing session. “Urgh…” he sighed and just chuckled to their daughter’s sound.

“Baby’s calling…” Nana said as she left Kris on the bed. “See you again soon, Husband” she said, leaving a kiss on his cheek and opening the door. “I’m coming, Catherine…”

Kris leaned on the bed, looking at the ceiling. He smiled to himself.

Thank you God, for all the happiness you gave to me.
