Flashback!

Seo Dae Young has been on a mission for a few days. Myeong Joo doesn't know when he'll come back. But she hoped he'll come soon. It's her day off. Waking up in the morning her first though was if Dae Young would have been here, she'd spend the free day with him. But he's not here. So she slowly started her morning. Waking up the girls, bathing them, feeding them, playing with them for a bit, she entered the bathroom to have a shower.

On the other side, Dae Young returned today from his mission. He reached home hastily, entered the pin number in the apartment door lock and tiptoeing entered in their apartment. The girls were playing in the living room. Seeing him they both happily scrammed and started running towards him. He easily grabbed them both and took them in his lap, kissing them both all over their heads.

Myeong Joo's shower came close to the end and she heard the girls screaming happily and giggling, hearing that she hurriedly turned off the shower and grabbed one towel to wrap around her head before grabbing the other to pat herself dry. Surely this was normal, she reminded herself. Still she wrapped the towel snugly around herself and patted her chest wondering what could make the girls screaming happily like that.

As she stepped out of the bath and shivered because it's winter, looking around for her girls, she saw Dae Young standing there smiling at her, "Dae Young?" she cried and ran towards him.

He had barely found his footing after placing the girls on the floor when he heard her call him out and suddenly she was running towards him, clad in nothing but a towel around her torso and one twirled on her head like a strange headdress. His eyes soaked in the sight of Myeong Joo dashing towards him, the towel wrapped around her head fell off, exposing her silky hair that he loved so much. She came closer and directly crashed onto him and flung her arms around his neck, her hair damp and sweet fragrant. And before he knew, he wrapped his arms around her and picked her up, releasing a blissful sigh as she buried her face in his chest.

She was wet and clad in just a towel and triggered the crazy want- but more than that, it was the realisation that she had been waiting for him, worried about him to run into his arms. He choked back a sob at the thought. He slowly lifts her face with both of his hands and placed his lips on her forehead. She closed her eyes at the feeling of his lips touching her. But she's not happy. She looked at his deep eyes,"Can't you properly kiss me? Why do you just kiss on my forehead?" 

Dae Young smiled so softly and his mouth came closer to her ears and he whispered, "The girls are watching." And brushed aside a lock of hair to tuck it behind her ear.

Suddenly Myeong Joo being aware of the girls watching them and giggling so much. Sunshine is 4 years old and Jina is only 1 and a half years old. Still they understands a lot, they are quite clever girls. Myeong Joo made a rule not to kiss in front of them. Cause they can't help their kiss getting deeper. So she told Dae Young not to kiss in front of the girls. 

Now realizing her current state in front of him and the girls, she was flushed red and clutching the towel at her chest. He took off his jacket and wrapped it around her shoulder, and again, on instinct cupped her face and tilted it up to observe her better. Her wet hair was soft and dripped on her shoulder, a tinge of red covered the tip of her nose made her look even cuter.

He ran the pad of his thumbs across her cheeks."Why do you look so flushed? Are you shy?"

She closed her eyes, placed her palm over his and chuckled before releasing a sigh. "You're back," she exhaled as if convincing herself before opening her eyes to meet his gaze. "I was worried I might be dreaming."

He swallowed thickly,"I'm back. You are not imagining." Here she is. He simply wanted to soak in every minute, every gesture and every fragrance. Finally, he came back to the reason of him to come back alive after a mission.

"Go change, you'll fall sick." he managed thickly, pulling his hand away.

She nodded once and turned, he grabbed her to him again and whispered in a very low voice, "I'll kiss you properly later."

She smiled a shy smile and went to change.
