Chapter 42

“Excuse me…..” Jaejoong asked as opened the front door keys in hand, he felt slightly better today but still Yunho had made an appointment for him to see the doctor. Yunho held out his hand for the key thought Jaejoong still held onto them.

 “Taeyeon parents will be stopping by today.’ Yunho explained. “They want to see Karam.” Jaejoong nodded his head he wasn’t sure what Yunho meant when he told him this morning, until Yunho held him hands. “I want you to be there. I want them to know about you.” Yunho told him.

“Are you sure… I know it not?’ Jaejoong just wanted to be sure, he was just gland Yunho hadn’t asked him to stay away.

“I’ve done so much wrong to you I want to put everything right first, first off them then everyone else,” he kissed Jaejoong temple ‘Come on let get to your appointment.” Jaejoong looked almost horrified at the thought.

“But I feel so much better today….

“but you look green…. And after what happen on are honeymoon and how long it took you to recover from it. You need to go, seriously your worse than a small child… no wonder you didn’t go to the hospital when your appendix burst. Guess I’ll just have to force you….” Yunho laughed as he took the keys from Jaejoong.  “Come on love it’s only a doctor…. By the time they returned home Jaejoong still appeared green, Yunho had stayed with him. How Jaejoong survived his life he didn’t know. He was placed on antibiotic to give his immune system a boost. Jaejoong was looking to the bag of medication. Before turning to Yunho…. should we get something in for Karam grandparents. I’m not sure what they’ll like but I could make something make the feel welcome then again, I probably shouldn’t though food. Jaejoong couldn’t help but be nervous as hell. Would they approve of him and Yunho, he just wanted to make the best impression he could?

“Didn’t the doctor tell you to rest up….” Yunho remarked.

“Like I could… there coming over it’s like my in-law in a way.’ He thought about it, did that make sense, He was sort of Karam Umma now. Who was he kidding he was one of Karam Umma. Would they want him looking after their grandson? It was probably the same feeling he had when he met Yunho parent when they finally confirm everyone suspicion that they were dating. They accepted him into the family he just wondered would they. He couldn’t help being stressed about it, “They’ll be there around four.” Yunho told him as he dropped Jaejoong home, before heading to the office. His hand on Jaejoong knee before he got out of the car. “Jae rest until I get home okay….

“But….

“For once do what your told….’ Yunho Kissed his temple. Jaejoong waved him off before stepping inside the house he was greet by Yunho mother. “Well what did the doctor say….

“Nothing to be to be concerned about just that my immune system is a bit too weak at the moment, he gave me some medication to improve it, he said it doesn’t seem to be fighting off what Karam brought home.’ Jaejoong place the bag on the tablet removing the both taking out what he needed to take, taking a glass of water to swallow them down. “These should help…

‘Well that’s good.’ She told him. ‘I’m sure it won’t be the first time he brings something home. We better get us to it.’ Jaejoong laughed.

****

 When Yunho returned home later that afternoon the smell of freshly baked good reached his nose, he shook his head ‘God dammit Jaejoong I told you to rest,’ Yunho muttered as he closed the door behind him his son. He made his way to the kitchen looking for his wife, he came to find his mother and father sitting at the table. “Welcome Home YUnho….

“Where Jaejoong….

“He went upstairs he said he thinks the medication made him feel drowsy…

“Sure it wasn’t something else.’ Yunho looked at the counter top, along with was in front of his parent. ‘Karam look Jae made you a snack.’ Yunh lift the plate and place it at the table next to his mother and Karam hopped into the chair. While he went ustairs to check on Jaejoong he found himself sitting on the side of the bed looking over Jaejoong as he slept peacefully You should rest for a while.’ He couldn’t help but softly graced the side of his face only  for the movement   had stirred the other.

‘Yunho…’ Jaejoog mumbled half asleep, ‘what time is it?

“Little after four go back to sleep,’ Yunho replied quietly brushing a stray strand of hair from his face. Jaejoong turned to face Yunho.

“I should get up….

“There not here yet take your time… ‘ Yunho told him as Jaejoong sat up. Jaejoong blinked the sleep from his eyes, his gaze meeting Yunho. “Didn’t I tell you to rest…..’ Yunho mouthed knowing Jaejoong had no intention to listen to anything Yunho was going to say. ‘Why do you never listen…?’ Jaejoong looked at him leaning forward giving him a hasted kiss on the lips before smiling sweetly. “I probably shouldn’t kiss you but I don’t think you can catch what I have again. Yunho embraced Jaejoong, ‘Don’t ignore my question?’

‘I’m not…

‘You so are….’ Before Yunho continued the doorbell rang. Yunho tuned to the sound.

‘Go I’ll be down in a minute….’ Jaejoong told him.

****

It was somewhat of a weird feeling down stair, Though Yunho and his parents were very welcome at least for the time been they were chatting away while watching their grandson as he played with his toys. Jaejoong still hadn’t come down but he was about too. Yunho was on the ground with his son coking’s him over, Jaejoong was just trying to build the courage to meet them, so many though ran through his mind, would the except him.  When Jaejoong came down he watch from the hallway, they hadn’t seen him but Jaejoong couldn’t help but feel intimidated. Yunho spotted him, He hinted for Jaejoong to come I but Jaejoong stood frozen on the spot. Yunho got up and went to him as Jaejoong hid behind the corner of the door out of sight.

‘You’ll be alright….,’ Yunho told him as he held onto Jaejoong hand. But it wasn’t until they made it in the door, Did Karam scream with pure delight, “UMMA……’ He ran to Jaejoong who let go of Yunho hand to pick the little one up as he demanded it. Everyone turned, Yunho parent didn’t bat an eyelid. Jaejoong stood still trying his best not to drawn to much attention to himself. But he felt everyone eyes on them,  Yunho looked at them, ‘ I should introduce you,’ Yunho spoke softly place his hand on Jaejoong back.

“Ah you’re the person I met last time, Jaejoong right…..,” The woman known as Karam grandmother spoke to him. Jaejoong nodded his head.

‘It’s nice to meet you again.’ Jaejoong bowed his head to her, as she was the first to speak. She couldn’t help but notice Yunho gazed on him. She was unsure what to think but she held a friendly expression.

 “Who exactly is this?”  Jaejoong couldn’t help but gulp at the man beside her asked. Jaejoong looked toward the man he was wearing a dark blue business suit that fit well certainly made by a high-class designer.

“Didn’t I tell you dear… this is the person Yunho said helps with are grandson. The phase hit them all, Jaejoong looked at Karam anywhere would have done as long as he didn’t meet their gaze. Yunho parent picked up on it but it wasn’t their place to say.

“Actually….Jaejoong is my wife.’ Yunho informed them. “Karam lover him just as much as I so…

“Wife you got married.’ The two looked to one another.

‘hmm… Jaejoong is my wife, also Karam mother.”  Jaejoong had placed Karam back down when Yunho fitted his finger between Jaejoong, making the statement calmly, as though meeting his former wifes parents was no big deal.

“I…see,” Taeyeon father seemed slightly perturbed, but he was not one to waste time on surprises,

“Jaejoong is a wonder to us all, really helped him bring the family closer together.’ Yunho mother comment hoping to ease the tension she felt. She didn’t many would except two-male marriage unlike her and the family. Jaejoong as an asset to the family, opening Yunho back up to life she was thankful for him.’ Yunho led Jaejoong into the living room sitting beside him and his mother. Karam couldn’t help but cling to Jaejoong demanding to sit next to Jaejoong pushing his father leg so there was room for him to sit. Jaejoong wanted to laugh but he was scared.

“As you can see Karam can’t get enough on him.’ Yunho mother commented. ‘isn’t that right Karam… you didn’t get to spend much time with Jaejoong this morning as he wasn’t feeling to well.’ Yunho mother explain. ‘Karam brought a bug home from school… we all got really sick. ‘How did you meet…

“Funny story…… ‘ Yunho commented. ‘We met through work, we sort of keep running into one another. He put me in my place a few times…

“A few….

‘Okay more than a few.’ Yunho told him. ‘I don’tknow why he deals with me sometime. I’ve made a lot of mistake.

‘That’s a question I ask every day.’ A comment came from behind, All turned to look at Changmin, munching away on Jaejoong cooking, ‘Seriously Jae Hyung…. Why did you have to marry an oat like my brother. This is so good.’ He nibbled away. The room felt silent no one knowing what to say.

‘I didn’t know your draughter, but I hope you’ll except me.’ Jaejoong looked to Yunho for support. ‘I love Yunho and I love Karam so much I only want was best for them. I’ll hope you except me.’ They obviously loved each other no one could denied that.

“Jaejoong is a wonderful mother figure to Karam he adores him, and as you can he the felling is mutcheal for Karam. He’s a wonderful son in law.” Yunho mother spoke gently before turning her attention to taeyeon parents. “he out live our expectations and take great care of Yunho and Karam. I still belive his Jaejoong hadn’t come to us, Yunho would still be a walking shell. I think Taeyeon would have approve of Jaejoong.”

‘Really……?’ Everyone could see the annoyed look in his eyes “O…Oh, I understand losing my daughter wasn’t enough but my grandson and ….” He looked to Jaejoong before looking towards Yunho. ‘My daughter hasn’t been dead that long and you moved on she never mattered to you.’’

‘No, she was wonderful but Jaejoong is another in the same if it wasn’t for him….I probably wouldn’t be  the father I am to Karam.’ Yunho tried to reassure Jaejoong telling him he was okay with a scowling he was going to get approval from them Jaejoong was one of the best in the world, that Taeyeon would have approved. ‘Jae helped me own my eye when I was dewelling him Taeyeon death. I couldn’t even look at Karam, I became a stranger to him. I’d dump him on anyone who’d have him. Everyone told me to act up, be responsible, but I was stuck in a grove of self-pity and I couldn’t shake it. Not until Jaejoong came into my life he opens my eye to what I wasn’t seeing. Taeyeon would have wanted me to be happy us to be happy.

“Not like we can ask now is it.

Dear stop…..’ the woman stood up, ‘ You have to forgive him were still dealing with her loss,’ he looked to the elderly man before turning back to  Yunho and Jaejoong silent tears were evident in Jaejoong eyes. He excepted this, she walked over to him taking his hands in her own. “I think maybe.’ She thought for a moment closing her eyes. ‘She would have like you…… I can see that….’ She stood back. ‘I hope you will allow us to see Karam again. It was Jaejoong who spoke.

‘Please come anytime you will be always welcome….’ Jaejoong told them holding Karam hand. ‘Karam would love to hear stories about his mother. I won’t replace her…as Karam Umma I mean, we want Karam to know about his mother.’

‘And he will when we take him from you….

‘Dear…what are you saying? she asked

Jaejoong held a look so sadness and guilt, something in his chest seemed to shatter like a fragile piece of glass as  that was said. They couldn’t could they take Yunho son away from them. No he wouldn’t allow it Taeyeon wouldn’t have wanted that. Jaejoony shook himself  he need to get it together, His vision blurred as he almost out. "Please……." The word slurred from his lips. The world tilted around him but he forced himself to his feet and staggered, Pain flared in his chest as he forced himself to say what he felt needed to be said, ‘Please down karam is everything to Yunho he’s a great father. ‘They walked out without a word Jaejoong followed wanting to explain but Yunho held him back turning him around so Jaejoong was facing him. Tears welling up but Jaejoong forced them back… as he clung to Yunho shirt ‘I need to explain….

‘They are grieving Jaejoong…. They need more time…

‘But….

‘It okay….. deep down they know the truth.’

‘This is my fault all my fault…. ' Jaejoong tried to turn but Yunho stoppped him holding  him close.

‘No it’s not….,’ Yunho held jaejoong as he almost fell to the ground.
