"Okay, smile a bit. Yes, like that... Perfect! "

Jiyong couldn't help but grin widely as he kept talking glances at Dara who was in the middle of a photoshoot. He was holding a file, actually, his schedule for the week but he was just pretending to be reading it for he could not take away his eyes from his wife. The triplets on the other hand were having their snack and the staffs were all gushing over them, completely in awe of the brothers. 

"Okay, Sandara-shi... One more shot. And... Okay! Done! Perfect! Gosh, you're amazing! Let's check out your photos, please," the photographer said, and as if it was a signal, Jiyong immediately snapped his folder close and handed it to his assistant.

"It's that natural 'look-at-me' aura that gives you the difference. After all these years, you still look so young. Who would have thought you're a mother to three healthy boys? "

"Aigoo... I'm naturally skinny and petite..."

"I'm not just talking about your figure. You haven't changed at all. I'm pretty sure your fans and even non fans will go crazy over this issue. I'm very happy to be able to work with you.  Look at this one," the director of the shoot said and the photographer and staff couldn't agree more. Dara was about to check out more of the photos but she was suddenly reminded by Jiyong and their sons. 

"Please excuse me for a while," she excused herself but when she turned around, she was surprised to see Jiyong carrying the triplets and dashing their way to her.

"Aisht, stop carrying them altogether! You're going to break your bones! " she scolded but Jiyong just walked past her and to the monitors.

"Eherrrm... Maybe we can take a peep of the outcome too," Jiyong smirked at her making her drop . 

"Jiyong..." Dara whined but Jiyong just wriggled his eyebrows.

"Eomma, yeoppo!" Yongse chuckled as he clapped his hands.

"Yeoppo!!!" Yong il and Yongdu seconded and Dara couldn't help but kiss her sons one by one.

She was not expecting though,  that the oldest dragon would be so sneaky and desperate for a kiss too and it made her eyes went round when Jiyong pouted just before she could kiss Yongse.

"Ayyyeee! Appa eomma po-po!!! Yong il said giddily while hugging Yongdu.

"Stop it, boys," Jiyong was chuckling as he lowered the triplets down. "Look, eomma is already red. So cute, right?

"Kkk. Cute!!!" Yongse pointed at his mother while Yongdu hugged him and gave him a peck on his lips too and the soon the three went on running around chasing kisses and hugs making everyone love them even more. 

*SLAP!*

"Ouch!!!" Jiyong nursed his arm when Dara suddenly slapped it. "Why?"

"I am so not going to take you with me next time I'll have a shoot." Dara scowled at him before turning around to check out her photos but she has not taken more than a step away when she felt Jiyong hug her from behind.

"You can try~"

"Yah, Jiyong!"

"Let's check the photos out together. " he whispered and soon he was latched behind her, hugging her tight as he rested his chin on her shoulders. Dara rolled her eyes when they reached the monitors with him still behind her.

"G-Dragon huh? I think you should be G-Gecko... G-Koala? Tsch. How clingy," Dara could just chuckle at his husband.

"Whatever... As long as I get hugs and kisses from you. " he whispered before suddenly pointing at the screen. 

"That's a nice shot! No... That one. Yes, yes! That! Damn. She's a pro, isn't she?" he proudly said and while everyone was nodding in agreement, Dara was shaking her head and containing her laughter at her unbelievable husband.

"Oh, damn. What are you doing here? Tsk. Anyway... I heard you caused a scene in her photoshoot," Yang Hyun Suk barged into Jiyong's recording studio the next day, throwing a bunch of files on his desk. "That was very unprofessional, Jiyong."

"Unprofessional what? We were there to support their mother. We were there as her fans." Jiyong said, throwing his head phone somewhere as he picked up the folders on his desk.

"Wow, Jiyong. Just... Oh Jesus..."

"Hey hyung, what's wrong with that? Aren't we allowed to be there as Blackjacks? Uhm... Daralings to be exact?"

Hyun Suk could just roll his eyes as he grabbed on a chair and sat down across Jiyong.

"Daralings my . Tsch. You are just a creepy sasaeng fan tagging your sons along." Hyun Suk shook his head in disbelief. He then pointed at the files he brought. 

"Take a look. Those are the permits needed for your little dragons."

Jiyong flipped the pages and perused through it. "I'm quite amazed, hyung. How in the world were you able to accomplish all of these in just one day?"

"Two days, to be exact. It's not an easy task. I had to use my connections to get that."

"Thank you very much," Jiyong dramatically bowed. "You were waiting for me to say that,  weren't you? " Jiyong grinned at Hyun Suk but the latter remained unamused.

"But I'm not going to mean it. Hyung, remember. It was you who signed me up for this."

"One day you will thank me for making you do this."

"You can wait." Jiyong flapped his hand. "Oh... By the way when will the filming start?" he asked, going back to reading the permits handed down to him making Hyun Suk tilt his head as he wondered. Something was kind of off here, he thought. 

"Kwon Jiyong..."

"Hmm?"

"Hey Blackjack..." Hyun Suk called him but Jiyong kept reading while biting off his nails.

"Yah Daraling!!!"

"Oh yeah, hyung! What!" he snapped and Hyun Suk could just run his palm down his face. 

"I told you to read your schedule, didn't I?"

"Yes. Why?"

"Did you read it?" Hyun Suk asked but Jiyong just looked at him with a blank expression.

"Actually... I... Did not,"

"I knew it! Aisht!" Hyun Suk slapped his forehead and stood up,  so done with Jiyong pissing him off. "Somehow,  I knew this was gonna happen!"

"Can you just go straight to the point, hyung?"

"Aisht!!!"  Hyun Suk grabbed his slippers and it took him all his remaining patience not to throw it at Jiyong's face. He took a deep breath and tried to contain his anger.

"Yah... Daraling, it's only 9am. I suggest you go back home."

"W-w-hy hyung? I just arrived?"

"The official filming date will be five days from now..."

"Okay..."

"But the family interview will be held today."

Jiyong did not waste time. As soon as he realized his mistake, he quickly made a call to Dara to check what's going on inside their household. He found out that his wife was about to call him up too to ask him why the staff and crew were already there and waiting for him. Jiyong told Dara to just make the crew wait for him outside and do not let anyone in while he wasn't home yet but it seemed he was too late. 

There is no way a good lady of the household would allow their guests to stay outside.

Mortified, he arrived with the cameras already positioned to greet him welcome home and when he went out of his car, he saw through the glass walls of their house that they have been invaded. He shut his eyes and raked his hair in frustration.

"Good morning, Jiyong-ssi," the producer bowed before him only to earn him a cold shoulder.

"Stop filming. Excuse me." he pointed at the cameramen and walked past them and into their house.

He was so mad at himself for being so stupid. He was thinking how shocked Dara and the kids must have been. His kids! Jiyong slapped his forehead and tried to find his sons. Everything, he knew all of these, he knew his sons were not familiar to them and they might have felt scared to see strangers roaming inside their house. It added up more to the nagging feeling in him.

"Where are they?" Jiyong asked one of their household helpers as he handed her his jacket but he was distracted when he saw his Yong il running towards him. 

"APPAAAA!!!" Yong il was giggling excitedly but he it was not too long before he realized the boy was not there t
