Balancing a relationship with university classes and part-time jobs was not easy but they managed, Soojin graduated first and after a lot of talking they decided to live together, after a lot of searching they found a more spacious apartment that had more mobility for Soojin , despite them complaining the Seo ended up buying the furniture adapted for their daughter, both the Yeh and the Seo´s supported their relationship, at first both families thought they were very young and would not last but 4 years later they were still together.

It was on a shopping trip with her co-workers that Shuhua ended up buying a ring for Soojin, they had been together for 7 years and she knew that she would never love someone like she loves Soojin, she and her colleagues went to a jeweler to choose the ring and after several several rings Shuhua saw a simple rose golden band with three smal diamonds on the top, Soojin had never liked fancy jewelry and that ring would be perfect. Buying the ring was the easiest part of the proposal, the hard part was decide how to propose to Soojin, Shuhua asked her friends, watched videos on Youtube but nothing seemed right. What Shuhua didn´t knew is that Soojin had noticed that she was acting strange and very nervous, she was always using her cell phone and having strange conversations on the phone, the last straw was when Shuhua rummaged through the house looking for something and when Soojin offered to to help her she started to sweat and stutter, Shuhua ended up hiding in their room leaving a confused and upset Soojin

-Are you cheating on me?

Shuhua looks up to see Soojin and she jumps so hard that she drops something that was in her hand

-What why?

-What is happening Shuhua? Who is she?

Shuhua is startled by her girlfriend's questions, she can see that Soojin's eyes were full of tears

-Jin ah, I'm not cheating on you

Shuhua responds as she picks up something from the ground and approaches Soojin.

-You've been acting so strange lately...

-I would never, ever cheat on you Jin ah

-So, what is happening?Why have you been acting so weird?

Shuhua then kneels in front of her and shows the ring to Soojin who brings her hand to .

-That's not how I planned to propose to you but well, we were never a normal couple right Jin ah? For the last seven years you have made me the happiest woman in the world, I love you and I would do anything for you, you are my soulmate, my other half, my best friend, my lover and I want to live the rest of my life with you by my side Jin ah. Will you marry me?

Both were crying and the only response Soojin gave was to nod her head while sticking her left hand out so that Shuhua put the ring on her finger, once the ring is in place Shuhua kisses her hand

-I love you Jin ah

-I love you too baobei and I can't wait to marry you

Shuhua was checking her appearance in the bathroom when someone knocked on the door.

-Baobei, we are going to be late

-I'm ready

Shuhua adjusted her skirt and took a deep breath as she looked in the mirror, they had an interview at the adoption center, they had been married for a few years, they had steady jobs and had decided to adopt a child, Minnie, Miyeon's wife was a lawyer and had helped them with the legal part and now they were finally going to go through the interview. Shuhua tried to be optimistic because Soojin had her doubts they would be accepted as prospective parents, she was afraid that their uality or her disability was going to stop them from adopting, Shuhua had fears too but around Soojin she tried to be more optimistic.

When they entered the office they met the social worker, Choi Hyuna, the social worker had a serious expression but Soojin didn't see malice in her gaze, Ms Choi explained the procedures, analyzed the paperwork issued by Minnie and made questions about their financial status, domestic situation

-Can I ask about your work hours?

-I am a veterinarian in a clinic and I have pretty much a regular work schedule, sometimes I have some emergency surgeries but this is very unusual

-What about you, Mrs Seo?

-Well, I'm a financial analyst at Jelly Corp and I also have a regular work schedule

Ms Choi wrote the information down.

-Can I ask about your disability?

-Sure, I was in a car accident with my parents when I was 12

-And what were the physical consequences?

-I can´t walk but I have regained the use of some muscles and I´m pretty much independent

-And do you think your paralysis can get in the way of caring for a child?

Shuhua and Soojin looked at each other

-Shuhua's sister has a two-year-old son and we take care of him whenever possible

Ms Choi kept taking notes

-And you're not afraid to drop him? How much assistance do you require to do domestic activities?

Soojin looked at her indignantly a
