Being a single mother was not in Soojin's plans, until 5 years ago her life was perfect with a caring husband and a newborn daughter, but fate had played a trick on her and Hui had died of cancer, it had been a very difficult time for her but she managed to get back on her feet with the support of her family and friends, especially Yeh Shuhua, her neighbor next door, Shuhua had moved with her young son to the apartment next door to Soojin a few months after Hui's death and they bonded as single mothers, Shuhua understood how difficult it was to raise a baby alone and soon they became great friends just like their children

- Have a nice day Yuna, Lian obey Soojin alright?

-Of course mommy

Soojin and the kids were about to reach the elevator when

-JIN AH

Soojin looked back and saw Shuhua running with a bento lunch box

-You forgot your lunch Jin ah

-You didn't have to prepare my lunch Shu, I know you have a deadline to deliver your book

-It wasn't any bother, I would prepare the children's lunch anyway

Soojin smiled at her

- But tomorrow it's my turn, seaweed soup?

Shuhua did a happy dance

-I love this soup

-I know that's why I'll do it

-Thank you Jin ah

They were quiet looking at each other for a while

-Eomma?

Soojin looked at the children who watched them curiously

-Right, we have to go, see you later Shu

-I'll see you for dinner?

-Sure, but I will cook this time

-But Jin ah..

-No buts, you have a chapter to finish

-Very well. I'll see you tonight

Soojin and the kids left and Shuhua went back to her apartment, Soojin's smile on her mind

-Fried pork, egg fried rice, steamed buns and fried pork dumplings, the wife prepared your lunch?

Soyeon was trying to catch one of Soojin's dumplings who hit her hand

-She is not my wife, but yeah Shu made the lunch today

-But you would like her to be, right?

-What are you talking about Soy, Shuhua and I are just friends

-You two are practically a family Soojin

- She understands me, that's all, it's not easy being a single mom, we ended up getting closer because of it

-I understand, but tell me, wouldn't you like to know what it's like to kiss Shuhua?

As soon as Soyeon asked Soojin turned extremely red, she had already thought about kissing Shuhua a few times, especially when they were alone watching movies after the kids slept or when they cooked together or when Shuhua woke up like a puppy with her face all scrunched up

-Soojin are you there?

Soojin noticed that she was lost in her thoughts.

-I'm sorry Soy

-Soojin

-Yes?

-Just ask her out already

-Little monsters

Yuna and Lian had opened Shuhua's apartment door and found her cousin
