- Sungjong POV -

Last night I discovered a different side of minsoo, a side where no one in his family knows off, which is in a way depressing because he has a really good talent and he shouldn't keep it a secret from his father and his brother. I'm sure if myungsoo-ssi found out about it he will be even more proud of minsoo and sungjunnie would be really amaze on how cool his hyung is. I could actually see junnie mouth open and eyes wide open also while watching and listening to his hyung play the guitar. It's really sad that minsoo doesn't want to show and tell this to his family or let alone his baby brother. 

Anyway when we got back it was almost 11 pm and well since no one knew that minsoo left I was the first one to come inside the house and make sure that no one was around and made him wait outside. Once I was sure that no one was around at the living room and the kitchen, I went out and told minsoo that it was safe to come inside now and no need to sneak his was inside. Actually after we talk at the cab he hasn't spoken a single word again but it doesn't seem like he was upset with what I said that time.

When we got inside the house safely he didn't speak any words and just went straight upstairs and I couldn't help but sigh, I then went to the kitchen, since I didn't got to eat anything the only thing I had was coffee which isn't really a good and enough, but I am not in the mood to eat something heavy so I guess a sandwich would do. I made a warm tea first then grab some cabbage and ham in the fridge when I turn around I see minsoo standing right by the kitchen door, he has fully change his clothes now and wearing a comfortable clothes and it doesn't look like he was even outside.

Are you hungry also?

Minsoo- ...

I'm making ham sandwich would you want one also?

Minsoo- yes please

Okay then I'll just cook the ham real quick

He then sat down on the kitchen stool I then grab a pan and fry the hams and after a few minutes I put it on the bread and put some cabbage, cheese and tomatoes in it. I put it on a plate and made some hot chocolate for minsoo and handed it to him, I took a sit beside him and eat our sandwich silently and I couldn't help but be happy despite us not talking he is somehow warming up to me, it a good improvement really. When he was done eating he said thank you and good night and seriously I was smiling like a creep because I'm really happy that minsoo is now somehow talking to me.

Anyway it's the 24th of December and I still haven't bought any Christmas gift for my friends and my baby sungjunnie aigoo I was too busy that I didn't have anytime to go shopping for Christmas gift. So because of that I decided that I will be going for a Christmas rush shopping, I plan to go to the mall today and with that in mind I woke up early and made some coffee for myungsoo-ssi like I have promise and then grab a quick breakfast and excuse myself and took a bath and get ready. I plan to leave early and start early because one thing for sure I would have a hard time shopping for the right gifts of all the people on my list.

Once I'm fully set to go for my Christmas shopping spree I grab my bag then put on my coat, I went down the stairs and when I past by the living room I then hear my baby junnie calling my name and after a minute I feel someone was clinging on my legs and when I look down I see sungjunnie clinging on my legs and seriously he is clinging on me real tightly and after a few seconds he finally looks up at me and I could see tears b in his eyes. OHMYGOD WHY IS MY BABY SUNSHINE CRYING?

Hey, hey baby why are you crying?

Sungjun- um...umma sob... don...don't leave junnie sob...

Aigoo baby shhh, uljima I'm just going out for a bit to go shopping. Who said I'm leaving?

Sungjun- jun...junnie thought umma will leave junnie

Aigoo baby I won't come on stop crying I'll be back in a few hours

Sungjun- junnie wants to come, umma can junnie come?

Minsoo- yah, sungjun stop being a whiny baby he said he'll be back stop crying! tsk

Minsoo please don't speak like that to you brother. Baby I'll just go to the mall and buy some things I promise I'll be back

Sungjun- junnie wants to come umma please

He looks like he really is desperate to come with me and I could see in his eyes that he really hopes that I could say yes and he is using the eyes on me! THE EYES! Oh god, I couldn't help but release a deep sigh and I pulled sungjun away from my leg first and crouch down for us to be in the same level, I wipe my baby junnie's cheek and smiled at him. He just come closer to me and wrap his tiny arms around my neck and I rub his back, I was about to answer him when I hear myungsoo-ssi's voice. Ugh I forgot that he is still here

Myungsoo- what is going on here? Sungjun why are you crying so early in the morning? What did I told you about crying?

Myungsoo-ssi then comes into view he was already wearing his usual working suit and has his hair styled up like usual also, sign's that he is ready to go to work. I hear sungjun whimpering when he heard his appa's strict and firm voice and I feel him hold on to my neck tighter. He is afraid of his appa, sigh I pat sungjunnie's back and calm him down for a few minutes before standing up and putting sungjun behind my back and looking straight to myungsoo-ssi's handsome face... ack I mean strict face.

Sorry about that myungsoo-ssi but nothing to be worried about. Sungjun just misunderstood something but its fine now. And uhm... I will be going out for a bit and I'm wondering if sungjun could come along? I'll make sure that we'll be back early and he won't get lost or ...

Myungsoo- sungjong calm down. I know that my son would be safe with you, I trust you but will it be alright with you bringing sungjun? He could be a handful

Uh... Ne it will be fine.

Myungsoo- okay then but please let sungyeol come along with you and use the family car also.

B...but

Myungsoo- I think it would be much comfortable for sungjun if you will use the family car and I would be even more relieve if sungyeol come along with you.

Sigh, arasseo

Myungsoo- alright then and here sungjong-ssi please use this card if sungjun asked something

he said as he pulled out his wallet and handed me a black credit card, I just look at it dumbly for a few minutes before looking back at myungsoo-ssi and lifting my eyebrow at him. I then shake my head at him telling him that I am not taking it. Myungsoo-ssi just look at me questionably as he stare at me while I refuse to take the credit card he is holding out for us.

It's okay myungsoo-ssi, I couldn't take that card.

Myungsoo- but I couldn't let you handle sungjun's expenses.

It will be okay myungsoo-ssi I hear him release a deep sigh and then a second later I hear him call sungyeol hyung and a minute later sungyeol hyung comes

Myungsoo- sungyeol get sungjun ready, sungjun and you will be coming along with sungjong, and take this card and pay for everything arasseo?

Sungyeol- ah... ne sir.

Myungsoo- and take the family car.

Sungyeol- ne sir.

Myungsoo- sungjun don't be hard headed and behave arasseo?

Sungjun- ne appa

Myungsoo- listen to sungjong-ssi and sungyeol arasseo? No crying or whining, I don't want to hear from sungyeol that you disobeyed him and sungjong-ssi

Sungjun- ne appa, junnie will be a good boy.

Myungsoo- good, minsoo do you want to come along with them?

Sungjun- hyungie should come along also please hyungie please

Minsoo- aisht fine 

Sungjun- yay!!! Hyungie will come also

Myungsoo- okay, remember to behave you two. I don't want to hear any complains about your behavior arasseo?

Kids- ne appa.

Myungsoo- okay go get change now, wouldn't want to make sungjong-ssi wait for too long.

Minsoo then head towards the stairs while sungjun let go of me and I thought he will be following his hyung but I see him walk towards his appa and hugging his appa and bidding his father goodbye and telling him "I love you" I see myungsoo-ssi rub sungjun's head and then sungjun together with sungyeol hyung head upstairs. I was left standing in the hallway alone with myungsoo-ssi and I hear him cough I guess he could feel the sudden awkward atmosphere. I then gaze back to him and see him fixing his coat.

Myungsoo- so I will be going then, be careful on the way sungjong

Uh... ne, you too myungsoo-ssi. Please be careful on the road and please be warm. I will make sure your son will be fine so don't worry.

Myungsoo- thank you, I'm sorry that you couldn't even go out without sungjun making a a fuss.

It's okay, Sungjun is a well behave boy anyway I'm sure he wouldn't be too much to handle

Myungsoo- I hope so, anyway I will be going then

Ne myungsoo-ssi please be careful and have a nice day

I bow to him and he nods his head as he head out of the house and once he was finally gone I release a deep sigh, oh god why did sending him off sounded like I was his partner or wife oh god I could feel my cheeks heating up as the thought pass my mind. I fan my face with my hand and calm my beating heart and went to the living room as I wait for the boys to be done getting ready and dress up. The first one to go down was minsoo and he is wearing a white long sleeve polo shirt under the gray wool sweater and a black winter coat and black jeans. He really looks handsome for a 13 year old boy.

He took a sit on the far end of the couch as he play with his phone and as we wait for sungjunnie, 5 minutes later sungjunnie then come down the stairs together with sungyeol hyung, sungjun is wearing a blank pants and a blue long sleeve under a gray sweater vest, I see sungyeol hyung holding a blue winter coat for sungjun, sungyeol hyung said he will just grab his own set of winter coat and we will be leaving then. Sungjun sat beside me as sungyeol hyung left to grab his coat, I smiled at my baby junnie and caress his head.

Do you have something in mind to buy baby?

Sungjun- hmm ani, junnie just want to be with umma

Aigoo, I told you I won't leave you especially when tomorrow is Christmas! Anyway is there anything that my baby would want to receive from me? 

Sungjun- hmm ani, junnie is already happy with umma being here.

Aigoo, my baby junnie is so sweet.

Sungjun- junnie loves jjongie umma

And I love you too baby. Are you excited for Christmas baby?

Sungjun- ne umma!! I wanna see what Santa will give! I wish to Santa to give me a puppy!

Ehh? you wish for a puppy?

Sungjun- mhm, junnie wants a puppy

Minsoo- dad doesn't like pets so that wouldn't happen sungjun-ah

Aigoo, minsoo-ah please don't be like that Santa might really give him one and I'm sure if the puppy is already here your appa can't do anything anymore.

Minsoo- Santa isn't even real!

Sungjun- Santa is real! Umma tell hyungie Santa is real

Ne, minsoo please don't tease your brother like this please.

Minsoo- tsk whatever

Sungyeol- okay let's go?

Sungjun- yay! Let's go umma! Hyungie!

Sigh I could already feel the migraine forming up, Minsoo is on his tease sungjun mode again. Aigoo where did the sweet minsoo yesterday who played and spend time with his brother go? Aigoo I hope he wouldn't go overboard though I don't want sungjunnie crying in the mall because minsoo too much. I just overall don't want to see sungjun cry today I think he cried enough for today and like I said before I really don't like seeing him cry. Anyway I stand up and sungjun went and grab my hand as we walk out of the door and head towards the car that was waiting for us outside.

Before fully going out of the house I made sure that sungjun is warm and wearing his winter coat and has it zipped up and has a scarf to make him even more warm I don't want him getting sick. Once I was sure I hold out his hand again and head to the car, sungyeol hyung sat at the passenger seat while I and the two kids sat at the back seat. The ride to the mall was quick and silent 15 minute drive well minus a few conversation with junnie. When we arrive at the mall we were greeted by the warm air

And I couldn't be anymore thankful for that but once I look around I see that the mall is packed with people trying to do some last minute shopping like I am. I really don't think going around with sungjun with me would be a good idea, he might get lost and seeing from the volume of people he could get squished and hurt and I don't want that, I look at sungyeol hyung and see that he is also worried because of the number of people here in the mall, I grab tighten my hold on sungjun because I really don't want to run off and the possibilities of losing him is really high.

Hyung I don't think its a good idea that you guys come along with me while I go shop, why don't you just go to the arcade or watch a movie while I shop?

Sungyeol- yeah I don't think it's a good idea also to go with you, sungjun might get hurt and pushed around.

I'll just call you and ask you where you are if I'm done shopping and be with you then

Sungyeol- okay but we'll probably be in the arcade or the movie like you said or we could also be in the book store.

Okay, but I'll still call you ne?

Sungyeol- okay be careful okay?

Ne hyung. Junnie go with sungyeol hyung okay? I will meet you again later once I'm done with my shopping ne?

Sungjun- but umma, junnie wants to come with you

I know baby but look there's a lot of people today and I don't want you to get pushed around and you might get lost

Sungjun- but junnie wants to go with umma not with yeollie hyung

I know baby I know but only a few hours, promise I will be with you after I'm done buying the things in my list I don't want you to get hurt and get lost if you get lost I will be sad, I would be worried and umma will cry do you want that junnie? Do you want me to be sad
