Christmas Eve, 2011

 *Jeju*

“Umma!! Merry Christmas!! Umma!!”

Smiling, Yuri opened her arms when two-years old Juhjoong ran as fast as his chubby legs could do. Once he got into his mother’s warm hug, the boy put his chubby arms around her mother neck and sneaked his head on her shoulder.

“Tsk…tsk…. Show off.” 

Jongwoon shook his head toward his son while smiling when he saw him clutched at his mother like that.  He could understand why he did that, he would too after Juhjoong went to sleep. Yuri had been going under another intensive treatment after she fainted again about a month ago.

Since then she had been in and out of the hospital, and that’s too much for the little one as he used to be always with his Umma running their flower shop while Appa, now a cardiologist, often stayed late at the operating room.

She was just release few hours ago, although there was note that saying that she should limiting her activities and take more time to rest so she could recover sooner. Luckily, Taeyeon, Kyuhyun’s eldest sister-in-law, was always interested on the shop so she brought half of the share and told Yuri that she would help on the shop when she on recovered.

So no wonder that Juhjoong, having seen his Umma mostly few hours a day, was overwhelmed with the fact that he could see her before his bed time. Exhausted, the little boy slept on his Umma’s shoulder, his right thumb on his mouth while snoring softly.

Yuri chuckled while patting her boys back to calm his on his sleep.

Jongwoon pretended to feel offended, but Yuri knew that he was only teasing her, so she smiling.

“I still love you more than anything, Oppa.”

Jongwoon laughed softly and pulled out the hair on his wife’s head and leaned forward for a kiss. Their kiss became heated until Juhjoong stirred. They pulled out and laughed.

“Let's tuck him to bed.” Then Jongwoon whispered softly, “Then I’ll bring you to our bed.”

“Seoul”

“You’re back!”

Yoona opened the door and hugged the person who just knocked over it.

“I am.” Qian smiled back to her while pulling another person behind her. “I hope you can sneak in another seat.”

A tall man waved at Yoona. “Hi Yoong.”

“Ah, Zhou Mi Gege! You made it?”

“It’s good to be back.” Then she saw a glint on the side of Zhou Mi’s hand. “Uh, Unnie?”

“Yeah?”

“Can I have your hand?”

Giggling Qian showed her ring finger.

“You did! Congratulation!” Yoona hugged the older woman again.

“What to congratulate?” Changmin suddenly popped up on the kitchen door.

“This!” Yoona pulled Qian’s hand.

Changmin smiled and then pulled his cousin into a tight hug. “I am so happy for you, Noona.” And then he glanced at Zhou Mi who still leaned to the front door and playfully threatened the older guy. “To you too, Hyung. But with one conditi
