She was always an early riser. It was indeed the best sleep she had in the past month. She stretched out her arms and twisted her body for a quick muscle relaxation. She pulled the blanket over her head taking another deep breath. She inhaled again. And again. And again. She quickly sniffed the blanket then she pressed the pillow against her nose. This smell…was pleasantly inviting to her. She inhaled once again and closed her eyes. She could fall asleep all over again. He was right. His handsome face saved her. She reached over for her phone that she threw somewhere on the bed last night.        Goodness. It was already close to 12 noon. She stood up and rushed to wash her face. Taeguk came to her mind. How was she? Was she awake already? She quickly finished and rushed out to find Taeguk. She wasn’t sleeping on the bed. No one was in the room.      “Taeguk!” she shrieked. She couldn’t lose her mind as soon as she woke up, could she?      “Kitchen, Auntie.” Youngni heard a faint voice.      As she approached the kitchen, she halted. Jungkook came to her mind. He must be in there with Taeguk. She breathed in and breathed out.      Why are you even hesitating? She scolded herself and gathered some courage to enter the kitchen.      “You’re up? Food’s ready.” Jungkook said as he took off the brown apron and sat down.      “Oh…ok.” Jungkook and Taeguk watched Youngni sat down across from Taeguk and diagonal from Jungkook.      Youngni looked at the half-sliced egg sandwich neatly stacked. There was also a cup of orange juice. Unconsciously, a smile crept to her lips. It was the proper breakfast she hadn’t have for a while.      “Uncle took a long time to make sandwich.” Taeguk stared at her breakfast. She didn’t understand why her Uncle spent longer making the same sandwich he usually prepared quickly.         “Let’s eat,” Jungkook diverged the conversation taking a bite into the sandwich he indeed spent more time than usual making.      Youngni volunteered to wash the dishes. Jungkook and Taeguk left to change out from their pajamas.        Taeguk ran calling Youngni as she dried her hand with a towel. She dropped the towel on the counter to pick Taeguk up. After giving her a kiss on the cheek, she stared at Taeguk’s hair neatly tied back into a high ponytail. She was dressed in a navy-blue jean jacket, jean with a black t-shirt, and a black with white strip old skool Vans. Youngni nodded her head in approval.      “Uncle.” Taeguk beamed at Jungkook walking into the kitchen.      Youngni eyes zeroed to his outfit then his face. He was wearing the same exact thing as Taeguk, family couple outfit? His hair was slightly parted showing bit of his forehead. He was dashing.      “You guys are going out?” Was she being left out?      “Auntie, do we look cute?” Taeguk smiled and jumped down and ran into Jungkook’s arm. He scooped her up and kissed her on the cheek.      “Very.” Youngni laughed. She couldn’t deny how fatherly Jungkook look with Taeguk. They both look very pleasing.      “Auntie. Let’s go see my other Uncles,” Taeguk wrapped her arms around Jungkook’s neck.      “Do you want to come along?” Jungkook timidly asked. A sense of excitement rushed though him.      “Sure. Just let me change.” Jungkook chuckled seeing how fast Youngni ran. He let out a breath. Luckily, she did not reject his offer. In no time, she was ready after throwing some comfortable clothes she found in Chaeyeon’s closet.        She trailed like a ghost behind Jungkook and Taeguk, keeping steps behind. They were playfully teasing each other, very family-like. Was he playing dumb? Was he tricking her? He is Taeguk’s father? Youngni stopped walking and stared at Jungkook with immense focus. Heat crawled to her face as she couldn’t find any other reasons to object the crazy thought, that somehow upset her.      “Auntie?” Taeguk pulled on Youngni’s hand.      “Yes?” Youngni looked down to Taeguk then up to Jungkook who was a few feet away from them.      “Uncles called that they cannot see me,” Taeguk pouted. She clearly didn’t sit well with the news.        Youngni searched for an answer from Jungkook. “Um…” he rubbed the back of his neck and smiled, “something came up. They can’t meet anymore.”      Well, she had no clue who in the world she was going to go meet anyways. So, it didn’t really matter. She even didn’t know the man in front of her. Let alone, she barely knew anything about the pouting kid below her. She was putting her life at risk. Big time risk.        Was it his idea? Pretending that he had to go meet someone and then…Youngni felt frightened. Her legs grew weak. Was he trying to kidnap her? Murder her?      “What are you thinking about?” Jungkook flicked her forehead. “You awfully think too much. Bad thoughts at most.”      She rubbed her forehead, he wasn’t wrong. She agreed in silence. No fighting back for this one.      “Auntie, what bad thoughts?” Taeguk pulled her hand again.      She scowled at Jungkook. He shouldn’t have spoken foully in front of a kid.      She picked Taeguk up. “No bad thoughts. Your…Uncle was just…he just wants to cause trouble.”      “Trouble?” Jungkook scoffed. He reached out in attempt to take Taeguk.      Youngni took a step back turning Taeguk away from Jungkook’s reach. “I don’t trust you.”      Jungkook burst out laughing. “I didn’t ask for you to trust me.” Sounded like he was mocking her.      His laughter drained the last ounce of patience in her. How dare he played with her? She was being serious. Jungkook watched as she glared at him before walking away.        “Uncle, hurry,” Taeguk signaled for Jungkook to follow them. Youngni picked up her pace and brought Taeguk’s hand down. Jungkook lifted an eyebrow. This was getting interesting. He stalled time and waited for her to get a little further away. If she believed she could escape from him, she may try all she wanted.      “Taeguk, don’t call him.”      “Why, Auntie?” Taeguk frowned, “Uncle is a good person. You can trust him.”      “How?” she stopped walking. Maybe, she did believe him. A little bit.      “Taeguk cover your ears,” Jungkook popped up behind them and smiled. Youngni glared at him when Taeguk did as requested.      “What were you thinking?” Jungkook grinned. “I’ll kidnap you? Murder you?”      “No!” she protested, and he let out another laugh. She sulked and handed Taeguk to Jungkook. How could he be so on point? Jungkook grabbed Taeguk and held her in his arms.      “Taeguk, your Auntie is mad.” Jungkook tried to hold in his laughter. He was on point.      Taeguk looked at her oddly behaved Uncle and then at her Auntie. Her Auntie was indeed mad. She had the face like her mom when she was mad. Her lips were formed in a straight line. Her eyebrows were slightly inward. Taeguk reached away from Jungkook and toward Youngni kissing her cheek.      “Auntie, don’t be mad.” Taeguk whispered afraid the trick she used on her mother wouldn’t work on her Auntie. Jungkook smiled controlling his laughter as Youngni took a deep breath.      “Uncle, kiss Auntie’s cheek too, so Auntie will not be mad anymore.” Taeguk haven’t seen this trick failed. It always worked when her Daddy kissed her Mommy.      “Is that it?” another grin appeared on his face before he looked at Youngni, who clearly showed fear.      Taeguk nodded, “Mommy doesn’t get mad if I kiss her cheek like that.”      Jungkook nodded in approval, “let me try.”      “Hurry, Uncle,” Taeguk urged, “come closer Auntie.”      “Come closer,” his voice was soft. It somehow did the trick. It was compelling. She was leaning inward toward them.        But then she stopped halfway realizing what she was doing. Damn that voice of his.      “Let me kiss those red cheeks,” he cooed leaning towards her.      “Stop messing around. You think I’ll fall for that.”      Jungkook burst out laughing again. “I think you did. Did you see your face?” He imitated her face. He slightly closed his eyes as if he was drugged with his mouth slightly opened as if he was drooling.      “I…I…I did not look like that,” Youngni stuttered. The right words to defend herself disappeared as if it wanted her to stay guilty.      “Of course, you didn’t,” Jungkook flashed a smile, “there needs to be heart flying out from your chest. That would be more accurate.”      “Yah…Jeon Jungkook.”      “Auntie,” Taeguk was astonished when Youngni raised her voice and hid her face in Jungkook’s neck. "Uncle, Auntie is still mad.”      “Uncle is about to make that go away,” Jungkook assured Taeguk and step forward.      “Don’t you dare,” Youngni pointed at him taking a step back.      “Hyung,” Jungkook looked passed her and waved into the distance. Youngni turned around seeing nothing behind her. When she turned back to face Jungkook, she was greeted with a flick on her forehead.      “Stop being a baby. Taeguk is getting scared.” Jungkook walked away. “Let’s go grab some food. My treat.”      “That hurts!” she yelled, stomping her feet like a child who didn’t get her way.      “Come, I’ll make it better,” she heard him chuckling in the distant. She held onto her chest in hope it would stop the pounding. She drew in many quick breaths before chasing after them.      “Where are you guys going?” There wasn’t many options for her. She couldn’t let Taeguk be alone with Jungkook. His identity was still a question.      “We are buying food,” Jungkook said before looking at Taeguk and they chorused, “then to the playground!”      Youngni was stunned at their unison. After purchasing a variety of snacks from the food stall they passed and at the convenience store, they approached a park not too far away from Chaeyeon’s home. They looked like they were completing a regular routine. Jungkook set down the bag of foods on the picnic table. It was luck, that they found one under the tree shade not too far from the playground.  Youngni was glad it was made of wood. She wasn’t fond of the steel version.      Only a few families were in the park. Which was even better. Youngni didn’t like to wait in line for her turn to play.        “Food time,” Taeguk clap
