After breakfast everyone decided to head outside.

"I think it would be better to start from the outside and work our way inside," said Ye Jun as everyone made their way onto the porch.

"So where should we start?" questioned Soo Min as he looked around.

"Well since not everyone knows the house very well I guess it will become a tour for everyone else as well," said Ye Jun

"Okay so over there to your left is the Garden. But I guess must of you already knew that. In front is the large guitar shaped pool. It was built a few years ago. Um over to your right is the horse stables that are being built. Mi Na and Sarah insisted of having horses so their wishs are being granted. Over there past the garden is the forest. Um for those who don't know Lombaxs, which are Soo Min's creations, roam around freely. They rarely ever come out of there. If you follow that path further down, they you end up in a clearing totally created by Mi Na. There is a lot more to see on he grounds but it's a long walk. So we have golf carts and atvs. Past the pool are the Tennis courts, and the basketball court," explained Ye Eun

"Wait who's Sarah?" asked Myung Dae

"She's our cousin," I said

"Oh," nodded Myung Dae

"She lives in New Zealand," added Mi Hoon

"New Zealand? Daebak," he said amazed

"So where do you guys want to start?" asked Soo Min

"Lets start in the Garden!" chimed Tao

"NO!" shouted everyone who knew about the garden

Tao flinched and went behind Suho who was laughing really hard that he was actually tearing up.

"W-Waeyo?" asked Tao in a small voice behind Suho

"Because of the legend. It's true. We all can't go through the garden. We can go around but JUST.NOT.THROUGH.IT.," emphasized Ye Eun

"Alright,"

We all made our way towards the outside of the garden.

"So what makes the garden so special?" asked Myung Dae

"Good question. The legends goes that who ever walks the correct path of the maze with someone else, of there opposite gender, are destined to marry. So no one goes into the garden unless they are serious. Mi Na and Baekhyun walked the correct path and look were they are now," warmly smiled Ye Eun

"Wait you guys walked the maze?" asked Kris surprised

"Ah ne. It was on accident," I said

"Alright so as you can see their is the pool more up close and the tennis courts as well as the basketball court. Over there is the path leading towards the Clearing in the forest," said Ye Jun

"The clearing?" questioned Key

"Ne. It's my own little bubble of freedom," I said

"I want to see it!" chimed Jonghyun

"Alright follow me!" I said leading the way towards the path.

We walked the rather large path towards the clearing. We heard some rustles here and there.

"What's that?" asked Myung Dae as he walked closer to me

"Lombaxes," I simply said

"Are they nice?" he asked

"OF COURSE! We would never bite someone!" said Lisa with her high pitched voice.

Myung Dae looked taken back. "It talked! What are they!?" he asked

"Excuse me. We're lomboxes you moron. And of course we talk. We were created to talk," said Lisa kind of offended.

"Woah you guys are cute though!" said Myung Dae picked up a really young one.

"I wouldn't do that," I warned

"Waeyo?" asked Myung Dae as he cruddled the youngster.

"Youngster's get attached to those who they see the most. Or who give them the most attention. It happened to me and Mi Na. Which happen to be Larry and Lisa. Lisa being close to me and Larry closer to Mi Na," said Soo Min

"I don't consider it a bad thing. Once we become adults we learn the ways of the forest. But growing up we always wanted to be with them," said Larry as he made his way towards me.

"We still do though. But since they're busy we understand. By youngsters don't understand that and always find a way to be with their chosen human, well vampire, counterpart," said Lisa

Myung Dae nodded. He gently placed the youngster down and the youngster quickly ran to his mother.

"So Larry lead the way," I said

"Alright," he said. He turned around and lead the way down the path that was always kept nice and clean by the lombaxes.

We made it through and found our way towards the entrance of the clearing. There was a nicely painted sign that read "Welcome to the Clearing. A bubble of freedom"

We entered the invisible barrier surrounding the clearing. The barrier was created to allow certain vampires and lombaxes in. No one else unless other wise permitted.

Once every made it through we were that the farthest end of it. At the other end stood the tree house. The stream cutting throught the middle of the clearing. The waterfall was at the far left of it which feed the stream. The stream in turn feed the fountain on the other end of the clearing.

The ones who hadn't been there before were breath taken.

"Woah... this is wonderful!" Myung Dae said as he looked around. 

I could see his eyes sparkling. It was a clear day so the sun was out. A wonderful day to explore.

Myung Dae, despite his age, acted like one of the lombax youngsters. Ready to explore everything no matter what.

"Calm down," I said

"Ne," He said pouting. I couldn't help but to smile

"Go ahead and explore," I said sounding so much like a mother now.

He looked at me and ran off.

"Kids," said Soo Young next to me

"Tell me about it," I sighed

"I think that now that Myung Dae is in your life, you've matured a lot," 

"Really? You think so?" I asked bewildered.

"Yeah. Look at you. Sounding so much like a mother hen," she said smirking

"Whatever Unni," 

"I'm only saying the truth," she shrugged

"But have you tlaked to your kids?" I asked

"Aniyo. Who knows when that'll be," she said sounding so sad. I felt so bad for her because her only two kids left her. Never coming back.

I wanted to help her but I didn't know how.

I look towards Myung Dae and see him playing the stream like a little kid.

"Aish this boy," said Baekhyun

"You're not even his father yet you act like you are," blurting out what I was thinking. My eyes grew wide and looked away blushing

"It's okay yeobo. I understand. I guess it's because his your son and I'm married to you so I guess that makes him my son too. Even if I'm not his biological father. I still want to feel like I have a son," he said

I thought I was tearing up. Turns out I was crying.

"Why are you crying?" he said wiping the tears away

"I don't know," I said breaking into a smile

"Aish... yeobo~~" he sang out causing me to laugh

Luhan's POV

Seeing how Baekhyun and Mi Na were acting proved that they grew closer. I actually really jealous. I looked over to Myung Dae, Mi Na's son from a previous marriage. Now they were a happy little family until little Baekhyun came along. But soon I would get my turn. 

But when will that be? I can't just wait forever

The some of the guys had gone into the treehouse to play some video games. While the others were playing around with the fish in the stream. Kai and Taemin were watching over some baby lombaxes. Baekhyun and Mi Na had made their way to the stream as well to dip their feet in it.

Which made me a little bit more jealous. I just couldn't help it.

"HYUNG! Came over here!" yelled Tao to me.

"Alright," I said making my way over to the stream

"Isn't this awesome!" said Tao 

"Yeah," I said as I watched Baekhyun and Mi Na talk. While Myung Dae was just to busy watching the fish swim.

Ugh... I wish I had a son.

Can't you wait?

Hearing Mi Na's voice in my head surprised me but then I relaxed. I totally forgot she can mind speak with me.

How long do I have to wait?

I looked over to her and she was laughing at something Baekhyun either did or said.

I don't know. Depending on how possessive Baekhyun is. I mean he is open to me marrying you but I need to wait a few years first.

Alright.

I looked away and watched everyone have fun while I thought about so many things.

I just wanted to marry Mi Na and have a happy ending like she is having with Baekhyun. But I guess wishes don't always come true.

Myung Dae's POV

He was a really fun watching the fish swim and splashing everyone else as they played in the water.

He had always wondered what it would feel like to have a family and now he has one.

He always believed that wishes came true as long as you worked hard towards it.

He could have never imagined that he would meet his family after his father's death.

Now he was glad that his grandmothe found him and brought him here. He had wonderd how he was going to adapt to Japan and the house that his father left.

How he longed for father but the memories with his father weren't always happy ones. Many times his father would leave and wouldn't came back two or weeks later. Leaving him alone with the maids.

Other times his father would be the father that many wanted. His father would take him out to watch movies, play baseball or basketball with him. Or even help him on homework.

Yet his father never truely taught the ways of a vampire. His father said it would be safer if he learned the ways of a human.

But now he was with his mother and he couldn't be anymore happier. He could finally be taught the ways of a vampire. How much he longed for this day.

The best part is that he has a very understanding step-father. And he hopes that Baekhyun teachs him well.

He looked around the clearing and was really glad that his mother has taken him there. It's such a beautiful place.

He wanted to see the rest of the mansion as well. So he stood up from the stream and walked over to his mother.

"Umma. Can you show me the rest of the mansion grounds?" he asked as he looked down on his mother. 

The way that the sun was shining down made her eyes look really clear. Her face seemed to glow. Her smile was her best facial.

His mother was truely beautiful. He couldn't believe that his own father married her. She seems to high up the society for someone like his father to have ever gotten a chance with her.

"Alright," she said as she got up with the help of Baekhyun.

Baekhyun had gone to round up the rest of the guys.
