With You

Something Called Love...

The alarm went off as Jung Yunho quickly woke up to turn it off. He glanced beside him to see if his wife woke up from the loud sound. The pregnant mother was still peacefully sleeping, tucked under the warm covers. He smiled as he brushed her bangs away, staring at her peaceful face. Yunho kissed her forehead before slipping off the bed as quietly as he could.

After getting himself ready, he collected all the dirty clothes and went to do the laundry. Then, he went to wake up little Yuri who was sleeping by herself in the guest room. He helped her shower and dressed her in the best clothes he could find. Yunho smiled to himself, imagining that it was his own daughter he was dressing.

Jung Yunho was having the day off and he dedicated that day to serve and help his wife. He remembered he doctor's advice about taking care of his wife. She will easily get tired if she do a lot of housework. He figured that Ji Eun had done a lot of work when he was off on a business trip and this was his time to make up for her.

“Yuri!! Don’t run!” Yunho panted, running around the house, chasing the little hyperactive girl. “Aish, what did you eat last night?”

“Oppa, what’s going on?” Ji Eun who just got herself ready for the morning asked, seeing the house in a chaos.

“Omma~” Yuri came whining to her mother.

“Omo, honey what happened to you?” Ji Eun widened her eyes as she picked the girl up in her arms. The little girl’s hair was tied into weird knots and tangles.

“Appa did it~” she pouted, pointing to the male panting male in front of them.

“W-well… I was trying to tie her hair into ponytails. It’s hard…” Yunho smiled sheepishly, rubbing the back of his head.

The wife took the hairbands and comb from her husband and placed Yuri to sit on the kitchen counter. She untangled the knots Yunho made just now and slowly combed through the little girl’s hair. Expertly, she tied two ponytails at both sides of her head.

“Aigoo~ cutie pie,” Ji Eun smiled and pinched her cheeks.

Yunho on the other hand was frowning. “Indeed, it’s girls stuff,”

“It’s not that hard. But why are you grooming Yuri?”

“I was just trying to help you. I know how Yuri is quite a handful for you,” he reasoned, heading towards the stove to make breakfast.

“What about your work oppa?” the wife stared at her husband as he put an apron on and started to make breakfast.

Jung Yunho turned around with a bright smile on his face. “I’m having the day off! Which means I have lots of time to spend with my wife and little Yuri!”

“Yay!” Yuri jumped up and down happily while clapping her hands together.

“Huh?” Ji Eun blinked in confusion.

Yunho turned around as he approached his wife and circled his arms around her waist. “I want to make up for the time I left you…” he whispered with their foreheads pressed against each other.

If it wasn’t for Yuri staring at them, he would have kissed Ji Eun right then. He gently kissed her forehead before proceeding to finish up the breakfast. Ji Eun smiled to herself.

“You don’t have to do anything today. I’ll finish up the chores for you. Just sit back and rest, I don’t want you to get tired,” he spoke.

Ji Eun hugged her husband from behind, nuzzling her face in his broad back. Yunho almost droped the pancake he was tossing in the air at her action. He glanced behind his right shoulder and received a peck from his wife.

“Komawo Yunnie,”

Yunho was quite a good cook, but Ji Eun couldn’t help but to whine he made a mess in the kitchen. Everytime she tried to clean up the mess, he would stop her and cleaned it up before she could even react. He was forbidding Ji Eun from doing any kind of work at all. Just as she remembered to do the laundry, Yunho reminded her that he already did everything.

Indeed, the husband was very efficient with the chores that morning, impressing his wife. She propped her chin in her hands while dangling her feet, waiting for breakfast to be served as she stared at her husband’s back.

“Ouch!” Yunho suddenly yelped, catching her attention.

“Waeyo oppa?” Ji Eun ran to his side.

“Nothing I’m okay,” Yunho shrugged it off as he smiled assuringly at her.

“Let me see,” she took his hands as she carefully examined the wound.

Yunho accidentally burned his finger when he was about to lift the frying pan. Ji Eun pulled him to sit on the chair as she took out a first aid kit from the cabinet. Yunho winced when she dabbed the cream onto his injured finger.

"Baby, gently please..." “Aigoo~ such a big baby. Looks like I have to take care of two babies soon,” she playfully husband.

“W-what? W-who?” Yunho stuttered.

“Our baby and you Yunnie…” she giggled.

Instead of getting mad, Yunho just stared intently at his wife laughing. He missed hearing her laugh like that after being away for quite a while. Her soft and warm touch and how delicate she was when tending his wound made his heart skipped a beat. Her adorable yet serious expression also made him stare.

“If I knew you were this good, I’d get hurt everyday,” he mumbled to himself.

Ji Eun pinched his arm. “Oppa! This is not something to joke about. Besides, it’s not romantic at all,” she frowned.

“Are you saying this Jung Yunho is not romantic? I made you breakfast, do all the chores and yet you say that’s not romantic?” Yunho raised an eyebrow, proudly stating what he has done that day.

"You're being mushy rather than romantic," Ji Eun blinked innocently at him while shaking her head in response.

Yunho's shocked expression was immediately turned into a playful smirk. Ji Eun finished tending to his wound and placed the kit back in to the cabinet. When she turned around, she bumped into his chest as he was standing very close to her.

“So, Mrs. Jung…” Yunho whispered into her ear, brushing their cheeks against each other. “Say that I’m not romantic again,”

Ji Eun’s voice was stuck in . She knew that her teasing went too far with him. She tried to push him away from her, but he held both hands on the kitchen counter, trapping her. Before she could even react, Yunho captured her lips in his. She closed her eyes, drowned in his intoxicating kiss. He missed kissing her like that after being away for a week. He pulled her closer by the waist as he kissed her deeper. Ji Eun on the other could do nothing but to respond to his kisses. She had to admit she missed him too.

After some time, they pulled away gasping for air. Yunho pressed his forehead against hers. “Was that romantic enough for you?”

"All I know is, you'd blush no matter how many times I've kissed you," he teased.

Ji Eun looked down as she bit her lips in embarrassment and blushed. Then she gasped when she remembered something. “Yunnie! Yuri’s here!” she clasped her hands over , cheeks getting redder.

“Don’t worry she’s gone,” Yunho chuckled, brushing her bangs away.

The wife turn around to see if Yuri is there, but she was already out of site. "Where is she?"

"She's in the living room. Watching TV I guess," Yunho stole a peck from her. "Aigoo~ my shy wife,"

 

***

“Breakfast is ready!” Yunho hollered as he placed the perfectly made breakfast in front of the two females.

Ji Eun tasted the pancakes while Yunho was feeding Yuri. He was staring intently at his wife, hoping for a positive response from his cooking. After finishing half of the pancakes, she still didn’t utter a single word.

“Baby, what’s wrong you didn’t like it?” he asked, worried that she might have.

“It’s delicious,” she just gave a small smile.

Yunho finally figured out her silence after a few seconds. “You know, I heard a certain someone is craving for my cooking,” he mumbled while still feeding Yuri.

Ji Eun bit her lip, turning to Yunho with her puppy eyes. She took his hands and placed them on her stomach. “Our baby wants chicken porridge. Please Yunnie?”

“Baby, what did I tell you? You just have to ask, of course I will.” He nodded rubbing her stomach lovingly. He bent down and spoke to Ji Eun's stomach. “Appa will cook that for lunch okay?”


“Wah~” Ji Eun’s mouth was hanging wide open at the site in front of her. After breakfast, Yunho brought her to one of the biggest baby store in Seoul.

“Oppa, why did you bring me here?” she asked while dragging her husband with her inside the store.

“To shop for our baby,” he simply replied.

Ji Eun couldn’t hide her smile when she heard that. “But… don’t you think it’s too early?” she asked.

“It’s never too early. Besides, we have to make preparations from now,” he said, heading towards the girl’s section of the store. “This one looks nice,” he picked out a pretty pink dress.

“Yes, it’s cute,” Ji Eun smiled. “But I want a boy,” she mentioned, heading towards the boy’s section.

Yunho sighed as he followed his wife. “But Ji Eun-ah, a baby girl would be so much cuter,” he whined.

“Oppa, have you forgotten what I told you before? I would like our baby to be a boy,” she smiled to herself while patting her stomach.

“Yuri’s very cute right? I bet our baby girl would be cuter!” he insisted on his views, picking up Yuri in his arms.

“When your stomach is big enough let’s go and do the ultrasound. I can’t wait to know the gender,” he reminded.

“No!” Ji Eun suddenly snapped. “I want it to be a surprise…”

"But baby... I'm dying in curiosity!" Yunho frowned. Ji Eun ignored her husband who was whining by himself while she went to explore more sections of the store.

Before Yunho could even caught up wih her, his cellphone suddenly rang. "Yoboseyo, Jung Yunho here. I'm having the day off today," he immediately said once he picked up the phone.

"Really? Great then, we can hang out today," Soojin's excited voice was heard on the other line. "Where are you right now?"

"Soojin? I'm actually out with my wife right now. I thought you were in Japan?" Yunho widened his eyes at the realization.

"I have a photoshoot here for two days. Since I've just finished I thought we could hang out," she replied in a hopeful voice while gritting her teeth when Ji Eun was mentioned.

"I don't think I can. Sorry,"

"B-but... I!" Yunho already hung up before she could even finish. "Aish, wasn't my threat enough to scare the naive girl?" she grumbled.

"Maybe I should try showing her these..." she smirked to herself as she browsed through lots of pictures in her hands. "And with a little bit of my acting skills, I'm sure she'll believe me,"

"As for Yunho, I'm gonna have to make up a stronger plan and story for him..." she chuckled evilly while sealing an envelope securely.


"Thanks for the porridge Yunnie..." Ji Eun smiled as she finished the last spoonful of her husband's cooking.

Her husband just smiled proudly as he scooted closer to his wife. He bent down in level with her stomach as he spoke to it. "Your mother is eating a lot so grow up healthy my little angel,"

Ji Eun couldn't help but giggle at his actions. She stood up and headed to the sink to place the dirty dishes. Just as she was about to wash them, Yunho immediately stopped her actions.

"Ji Eun-ah, let me do it. Just rest, go watch TV or play with Yuri," he pushed her out the kitchen before she could even react.

Minutes later, he came to the living room with a tray of food in his hands. Ji Eun stared as he placed the tray on the coffee table in front of her. There were different kinds of fruits that were already peeled and a tall glass of milk.

"I found a can of pregnant mother's milk in the kitchen so I made some," he handed Ji Eun the milk.

"Thanks oppa, I almost forgot to drink this. Your omma bought them," she smiled as she took the milk and sipped some of them.

"Really? Well you better not forget to drink them. Our baby needs as much nutrients as possible. That's what the book says," Yunho mumbled the last sentence to himself.

"How come you knew a lot of things oppa?" Ji Eun asked as she ate the fruits prepared by him.

"I've been reading," he simply replied as he tried to take some of the fruits.

Ji Eun quickly pulled the plate of fruits away from him, turning her back against him. Yunho was shocked at her actions as he tried over and over again to get at least one piece of fruit.

"Anni! Yunnie, your stealing our baby's food!" Ji Eun yelped still trying to prevent her husband to get his hands on the fruits.

"Now you're using that against me?" Yunho could only sigh in defeat as he chuckled and shook his head.

***

The couple spent quality time with each other that night, talking about anything in particular. They were snuggled in each others embraced as they shared jokes and stories with each other.

"Omo, I can feel it!" the husband exclaimed as he softly caressed his wife's stomach.

She stared at him in confusion as she blushed. "I can feel the little baby bump! Sweetheart, appa can't wait to see you!" he spoke to her stomach in excitement.

The pregnant mother of course knew about the barely noticeable bump. She smiled as she held on to his hand that was on her stomach. "The important thing is for our baby to grow healthily. You're so excited oppa," she chuckled at her husband's reaction.

"Thank you Ji Eun-ah. Thank you for being the mother of our baby," Yunho gently kissed her forehead as he interlaced their fingers together.

A wave of emotions hit her when she heard those beautiful words from him. Tears were starting to pool in her eyes as she sobbed quietly. Yunho sighed at her unpredictable mood swings. He wiped the tears away and gently kissed her lips. After a while he pulled away and gently caressed her cheeks.

"Don't cry baby, it's bad for our baby," he soothed. "Think happy happy thoughts!" he cheered, trying to lift up the atmosphere.

Ji Eun chuckled at his actions. She scooted closer, snuggling in his warm embrace. Yunho was busy talking to himself, trying very hard to cheer his wife up. After a while, the husband noticed that his wife was silent. He glanced at her face that was buried in his embrace to find her already falling asleep. He checked the clock and smiled as he decided that it was time for bed.

"Sweet dreams my babies,"
