Sacrifice

OUR BIG MAMA

Mrs. Kim and Kyungsoo went out for some late grocery that night and the 11 had their secret meeting again, having the chance to talk about the girlfriend thing with their hyung. "Hyung, are you sure about this?" Jongin asked with a worried, guilty expression. "Do you think she's really the one?" Jongdae asked this time and Minseok just smiled, understanding his dongsaengs’ worries.

 

Actually, this is not the first time Minseok has fallen in love. He has fallen in love before and has got a girlfriend. But when he has decided to finally introduce his family to the said girl, the girl immediately lost interest in him by just seeing his brothers and ever since that day, the girl have always insisted on going to their house with the intention of seeing her new crush which is her boyfriend's brother.

Luhan knew about it when Minseok's ex-girlfriend confessed to him in the kitchen and knowing the cold 2nd born, he kicked the girl out of the house and dumped her in a blink of an eye. Minseok didn't believe his dongsaeng's reasons and kept on trusting the girl until the girl finally broke up with him. And since then, he had difficulties falling in love again and the brothers have been more cautious in the term 'love'.

 

"Guys, I know you're still worried about what happened 3 years ago but you have to trust me in this. Do you really think I'd be stupid enough to fall for a girl that will leave me for you guys?" The first born raised a brow at his brothers and he rest remained silent until Baekhyun blurted out a "Well Yeah." earning a smack on the nape from Luhan.

Kris sighed and looked at his happy older brother. He just couldn't resist his hyung and wants the best for him and his brothers. "I'm okay with it. I'll trust hyung and give this girl the benefit of doubt." He told. "I'm happy for you, hyung. I hope she really is the one." He added and Minseok tackled him with a hug. Our Benben will always be the best! The first born beamed.

The others ended up giving up with their brother's request and agreed to give the girl a warm welcome and a chance. But Baekhyun finished it with a threat. "But guys, really. If she's just like the last one then I'm tripping her foot." He told and Minseok just laughed, confident that it will never happen. Hope that it doesn’t happen, Baekhyunnie.

 

OUR BIG MAMA ~ OUR BIG MAMA ~ OUR BIG MAMA ~ OUR BIG MAMA ~

 

Days passed and D-day came fast. Everyone in the house was busy preparing for the said dinner with Mrs. Kim almost jumping in excitement as she prepare. The boys couldn't help but to smile and laugh on how their mother was taking this girlfriend introducing meeting and be happy for their hyung.

 

"Sehunnie, the banner is crooked. Fix it up for me please, baby Hunnie ~ " Mrs. Kim told and Sehun just sighed before doing what his mother wanted.  It was the 6th time she made him do that and the others were just like him as well. Yixing was tending the garden for the 4th time already and Chanyeol, Junmyeon, Jongdae, Jongin and Tao have washed all 3 cars, including the van, 3 times because their mom was not contented saying 'it doesn't sparkle enough'.

 

Mrs. Kim sat on the sofa and sighed as she, massaged her temples. "Aigoo, so much to do, I'm so excited, I don't know what to feel anymore." She said to herself and her sons just wanted to tell her that what they prepared was more than enough but they could not. No one blows up their mom's excitement, rule #98. So they just sighed inwardly and did their jobs.

 

When they have finished, Mrs. Kim and the brothers went to dress up for the meeting with Mrs. Kim wearing her best dress and the brothers with simple clothes. They told their hyung that they'll give his girlfriend a chance but they're not risking anything and they won't lose anything by being careful, right? They just wanted to look presentable but not presentable enough for their hyung's girlfriend to like them and dump their hyung for them.

 

They were all waiting with Mrs. Kim fixing Baekhyun's shirt collar when her phone rang, it was a message from Minseok saying that they'll be home in ten minutes making the mother squeal in delight and excitement. "Oh my gosh! Our Minmin's arriving with his date! O my god! O my god!" She jumped excitedly hugging Yixing who was a little bit startled at his mom's spasms. The 11 watched their mom fan girl over her new 'ship' with a smile and inwardly prayed that their hyung has indeed picked the right girl this time. Here goes nothing.

Just like what it said in the message, the bell rang at 11 minutes and 35 seconds, with Mrs. Kim counting. The mother greeted the both with the brightest smile and the biggest hug making the first born happy seeing how his mother welcomed his partner. "Welcome to our home! I'm Minseok's Mom, Hye Jung.  But you can call me omma." Hye Jung said followed by an excited applause making her look younger.

"A-annyeonghaseyo o-ommoni." She’s so young? I wonder what age she had when she got Minseok? The girl bowed shyly making Mrs. Kim smile widely. She's so cute! Good job Minmin! The mother praised her son's taste and continued her observation. "Jungmi inmida." The girl continued and gave them a shy smile. Just like her son described, Jungmi was nice, pretty and smart looking. Mrs. Kim giggled, flowers and rainbows almost visible in her happy surrounding. "I know." She happily blurted out surprising the girl and Minseok with the brothers mentally did a face palm at their mother's overly talkative mouth. 

 

Well, you can't blame Mrs. Kim for actually doing some research and going to her son's university just to see her son's girlfriend in advance. She was just too excited and since she told her son's that she won't be able to fall asleep if she doesn't get to see her son's girlfriend, the 11 just let her go. They didn't tell their hyung about this though since they all know Minseok won't allow their mom to do it.

 

The girl was silenced at the mother's words and the guys looked at their mom for making the moment awkward. Mrs. Kim then awkwardly chuckled and tried to cover for slip by saying "I mean, Minseok mentioned your name a lot." And Minseok just gave his mom a confuse look. I never told them her name! He was about to say something but his mom beat him out of it. "You must be tired for the journey, please come in." She told and led the girl in the house. Om my-- The girl finally noticed the brothers and greeted them with a bow and the boys all greeted back. GODs

"Oh, yeah." Mrs. Kim almost forgot to introduce her sons. "They are Minseok's brothers." She told. "I'll introduce them by age. Minmin is the eldest of the 12." She continued and the girl just couldn't hide her surprise. My boyfriend…is the ing eldest?! Oh well, Minseok's mom is really pretty. And he told me he has 12 brothers, I think. She couldn't believe him at first, but seeing them just made her speechless. Especially their mother, this young looking ahjumma gave birth and raised all these 12 fully grown men. Daeeebakk!

 

"The 2nd born is Luhan," Mrs. Kim told snapping the girl out from her thoughts as she looked for the said person. Luhan gave her a small bow with his usual, just for guests, poker face before intoducing himself. "I'm Luhan." He said coldly and the girl bowed. Cold. But hot.

"The 3rd is Kris." "Hey." The model greeted with a hospitable smile and the girl greeted back. He's the model. Omg! He's handsome! 

"Junmyeon" He's an angel.

"Yixing" Well, hello there Mr. Dimples.

"Baekhyun" Is he wearing eyeliner?

"Jongdae" I'm in love with his chuckle.

"Kyungsoo" He's so squishy I wanna hug him.

"Tao" Masculine.

"Jongin" He's younger?! He is y!

"And the maknae, Sehun." Wait isn't he and Luhan twins?

"Nice to meet you brother in laws, I'm Jungmi. Pleased to meet you." Calm down girl. She bowed again and the others returned it. Minseok's smile was bright as it can be as he was proud his girl hasn't shown any signs of infatuation towards his brother, yet.

"You must be starving, come! We prepared dinner!" The mother said excitedly and led the girl to the dining room with the brothers trailing behind the two females in the house.

 

During dinner, Mrs. Kim kept on chatting with the girl, giggling at smiling whenever she does something she likes thinking that she'll be the best for his son while the Kim brothers watched their mom and possibly sister in law talk. She’s getting along really well with mom. See? Minseok smiled widely at his brothers as his girlfriend have never spared them glances after the introduction and the brothers were a bit relieved by it. It means that no one has caught the girl's attention or she's not interested and the 11 couldn't get any happier. Thank God.

The dinner ended smoothly and Jungmi scored all 10 for Mrs. Kim and the brothers decided to lower a little their barrier and talked a little at their sister in law. Minseok drove the girl home afterwards and the brothers faced their mom's spasms, their mother's crushing hug, giggling fan girl screams and more but they just laughed at her, happy for their brother and mother's happiness. 

 

After that day, with Mrs. Kim's insisting, Minseok invited his girlfriend more often and by every visit, she got closer to her boyfriend's family especially to their mom which she was very happy about.

 

Jungmi's smile got wider when she saw her boyfriend's message saying that they'll eat again in the Kim's house. I’m seeing my boyfriend’s godly brothers again! She hurriedly prepared the best clothes she has with an excited grin and couldn't wait for Minseok to come and take her to their house, talk to her future mother in law and her future boyfriend, Kris.

 

Actually, Jungmi has her attention at the model, Kris as he was her ideal type. She just pretended to be concentrating with the mother sensing that they were all obviously observing her every move. All of the Kim brothers were stunning and she couldn't help but to admire Mrs. Kim's great genes since all of her sons could melt any girl's heart. But the one that really caught her attention was the 3rd eldest as he was the one who welcomed her with a smile, the smile who melted her inside immediately. In fact, just like Minseok's ex, she badly wanted to break up with her current boyfriend and try to go for the more handsome Kim. But for now, she decided to pretend to be a good girlfriend and showcase her good side to the Kims and maybe that way, Kris might fall for her. Hide your sons Mrs. Kim, gotta catch them all.

 

Minseok arrived and the two went to the Kim's residence. She’s so happy with me. Minseok could see the large excited grin on his girlfriend's face but thought it was just because she was happy to meet his mother again, but how wrong he was.

 

Days passed by and the monthly visit of Jungmi became weekly to daily. She even goes to the Kim's house even though Minseok was still at work making the brothers and Mrs. Kim suspicious of her. The Kim's decided to observe her silently and Mrs. Kim was the one who first saw the signs.

 

The Kims were having their family day in a soccer field Luhan and Kris rented. The boys were playing football while the girl's stayed as the cheerleaders. They were all playing, laughing and everything when Kris and Minseok did a wrong tackle making the two bumped hard at each other. Everyone went towards the two as well as Mrs. Kim and Jungmi. But what surprised them the most was to whom Jungmi checked on first. Uh, okaaaay.

 

"Kris! Are you okay?! Oh my god, you should be careful. Are you hurt?" Jungmi said in panic while the other's stared at her weirdly but ignored the situation first as they had to help Minseok too. Uh, your boyfriend’s over here? Baekhyun raised a brow at his sister in law but shrugged it as he was told to get some ice.

To their luck, no one got an injury and it was just a slip. Mrs. Kim stayed at her first born secretly stealing glances at Jungmi who was trying to chat with Kris. Kris wanted to get away from his brother's girl but he didn't want to seem rude especially when his hyung hasn't noticed his girlfriend's true intentions. Hyung, help?

 

OUR BIG MAMA ~ OUR BIG MAMA ~ OUR BIG MAMA ~ OUR BIG MAMA ~

 

Minseok was clueless as he thought that Jungmi was just trying to get along with his brothers and let her do what she wants whenever they with his family, not even noticing that his girl never spared him a glance whenever they are with his brothers. But he was the only one who didn't notice it as even Chanyeol caught up on what the girl was up to. She’s just being kind.

 

Mrs. Kim felt really sad about what happened and decided to just keep it a secret for Minseok for the time being. Maybe, I can talk her back to her senses. She thought and just as she turned around, she saw Jungmi sitting on the couch trying to talk to Jongin who was ignoring her flatly. The Kim brothers, including Kris were avoiding Jungmi throughout the day, even Mrs. Kim was a bit cold to her. But all that changed when Minseok arrived from work. They will start talking again with her and have a lively supper altogether. 

 

That night, the supper ended and Mrs. Kim and Tao went to the kitchen to wash the dishes but Jungmi volunteered to do it with the mother with the objectives of earning points. I’ll make her spill everything out. But she's didn't know what was waiting for her as Mrs. Kim was planning on confronting her today. They were washing the dishes in a warm atmosphere with Jungmi making all possible conversations with the ahjumma. But Mrs. Kim couldn't bring herself to smile warmly knowing the girl's motives. How should I do this?

 

Jungmi kept on blabbering things when Mrs. Kim suddenly Kim cut her off. "Please look only at my Minseok." she couldn't keep her thoughts to herself anymore. "He deserves someone who can only look at him and cherishes him more than anything." She continued. "He's a capable man and he is the most caring person in the world." What’s wrong with her? Jungmi looked at the ahjumma with a confused expression and tried not to cringe to the mother's ‘speech'. Why is she talking like that? Did she noticed my... oh darn it. The girl cursed on her head as she knows that the ahjumma has caught her intentions.

 

Jungmi put down the plate she was soaping and looked at Mrs. Kim with an unimpressed look. "So, you finally found out, huh?" She smirked and Mrs. Kim was taken aback by the girl's courage to behave like that in her own home. Huh? Mrs. Kim was about to say something but the girl beat her up by taking first. "Look ahjumma. I know you obviously know that I'm not here for Minseok anymore and that I'm crushing one of your sons." Jungmi told straight to the point and the ahjumma was speechless. "But here's a deal, since I don't want Minseok to be sad, I'll still pretend to be his girlfriend but only if you stay quiet and be a good mother in law." She bargained. "I know you don't want Minseok to be sad, right?" She added with a smirk and Mrs. Kim thought about the offer. She knows Jungmi was right. Minseok will get depress if she broke up with him. And with that, the mother agreed with a nod. For Minmin’s happiness.

"Good." Jungmi smiled and rinsed her hands. "Now, wash all this and prepare some snacks. I'm bringing it up to Kris' room." She told and left Mrs. Kim alone as she went to the living room to try to flirt with Junmyeon who was reading a book.

 

OUR BIG MAMA ~ OUR BIG MAMA ~ OUR BIG MAMA ~ OUR BIG MAMA ~

 

Days gone by and Jungmi continued with the blackmailing. She would act y and even swore at the ahjumma secretly when things doesn't go her way and Mrs. Kim just put up with her son's girlfriend's tantrums. Jungmi would also ask her for money and acts moody with Minseok whenever the mother failed to give her money.

Everyone seemed to have noticed their mother's down behavior and everyone knew it was because of the girl. When Luhan and the others decided to tell their brother about it, Mrs. Kim pleaded to not to tell with the reason 'I just don't want to see your Hyung sad.' and with that they tried to put up with it. But when Kyungsoo caught his mother giving Jungmi some branded clothes the girl told her to buy, the last straw was taken and the brothers decided to talk sense to their hyung. No one treats our mom like this.

 

Minseok just reached home from his date with Jungmi that ended up with a fight. He doesn't really get his girlfriend's behavior these days. She suddenly became bratty and always talks about his brothers with Kris in particular. He was starting to get the thought that his girlfriend is crushing on his brothers but he quickly shook the thought off. She's just trying to get closer to them, Minseok. Trust your girl a little more, will yah. He scolded himself and heaved a tired sigh before entering the house.

He was greeted with a quiet atmosphere in the house and saw his brothers quietly watching a movie. "Hey." He greeted and the others spared him some space with an awkward greeting which meant only one thing, the silent movie will start and he and his brothers will be talking about serious stuff. 

Minseok mentally prepared himself and sat between Yixing and Sehun. "Where's mom?" He first asked. "Taking a bath." Sehun answered and he just nodded. "So what's up?" He then asked. A part of him knew what the topic is going to be all about but he just doesn't know how to accept it.

 

Tao muted the TV and the talk finally began. "Hyung, I caught mom buying branded clothes for Jungmi." Kyungsoo immediately said when he found a chance. Minseok turned at his dongsaeng and saw his serious expression that clearly showed that it was not their mother's will to buy it. But he just raised a brow, No it can’t be like that. "Oh, really? Then mom must like my girlfriend a lot. Don't you think?" He told and Chanyeol just couldn't stop putting his palm on his face. He's pretending to be dumb.

"Hyung, I don't think you get what Kyungsoo was saying." He said. "Didn't you notice how mom stiffens whenever your girlfriend comes here?" He added and the brothers agreed on Chanyeol's observation except Minseok. She does?

"I don't think hyung does." Sehun then said. "It's not like he's here when Jungmi comes here anyways." He added with a shrug and Minseok looked at the maknae with a frown. "Jungmi?" Minseok repeated Sehun's address to his girlfriend with a hint of annoyance in his tone. "She's older than you Sehun, call her noona." He scolded and Sehun just sighed. This is going to be difficult. "But that's not the point here hyung. We just found out that your girlfriend is making our mom buy things for her and you're more concern on how Sehun calls her?" Baekhyun told with a scoff. He’s impossible!

 

Baekhyun's words hit the first born like a punch but instead of returning an apology, he replied with a frown. He was about to lash out to his brothers but he did his best to calm himself and sighed for the nth time that day. He was too tired to deal with this. "Look, I don't know what you guys are talking about. But from what I see, mom just likes Jungmi a lot and she bought her clothes." I think. He told and the others were just speechless on how stupid their brother was being. "I'll talk about mom about it, okay?" He told before getting up.

"You do know that mom will obviously not tell you anything if she knows you'll get sad, right?" Luhan finally talked. This is getting nowhere. "We don't really know what happened but we already talked to her and mom won't say anything. But from the looks of it, omma's definitely hiding something.  If she's not getting blackmailed, then something's holding her up." He added and Minseok let out a shaky breath before speaking. "Are you saying my girlfriend is blackmailing our mom?" He asked in disbelief. How could they thought about Jungmi like this? I thought they have finally accepted her. 

"Bingo!" Jongdae responded. But got silence by his Minseok hyung's piercing glare. "Do you have any proof to say these things just like that?" He tried to defend himself and his girl. He heard his dongsaeng scoff. "Really, hyung? We just told you that mom might be getting blackmailed and all you can think about is us showing evidence of it? Like really?!" Baekhyun glared back at his hyung, not liking the response they're getting. “What if mom was bitten by an insect? Do we have to show you the freaking insect so you can believe that she was bitten and not offering herself to it?”

"So now you're saying I don't care about omma? HUH?!" Minseok couldn't take it anymore and pushed Baekhyun roughly making the younger sit back and the others separated their hyung from the other. "Hyung! It's not like that, please calm down." Junmyeon tried to talk some senses to his hyung but Minseok just pushed him aside.

"NO! I'm really disappointed that you guys think of me like that. Why? Is it because I finally have a girlfriend and you're all jealous? HUH?!" His tone was getting higher and higher. "No, hyung! It's not like that!" Tao then said already sobbing. "Well, I'm just going to say that I'm really disappointed in you, for thinking that we'll just assume things because we're jealous of you and that girlfriend of yours that's obviously crushing on us." Jongin blurted out with a cold tone as he stood up with an unimpressed expression.

Chapter 62: Chapter 61: What a happy family. This story is so heartwarming. I love their relationship with their mother. I also like their relationship with their significant other (Minseok, Jungmyeon, Yixing, Baekhyun). I love all the chapters though the pace of the last few chapters are a bit fast (in my opinion). But I really like the story and I'm hoping for more. Hyejung Eomeoni is an awesome mother and her sons are the best! The story is wonderful and I really enjoy reading this story. Thank you for writing and sharing the story. ^^
