A few hours away from my family is already torture, what more weeks of not being with them. I don’t know, but after my retirement from the entertainment world and the two months that I became a “house husband”, I’m not used to not seeing my family anymore. Honestly, this separation is really a challenge for me and I’ve just proven to myself that my life revolves to my children and wife now and work is just a second priority.

It’s been a month and I’m still here in Korea with the boys, while our families are in New York. Well, things are pretty intense here and we’ve decided to extend our promotions for the last album. Of course, we just don’t want to leave our fans with just a short promotion and a three day concert. YG hyung proposed a new plan to us wherein our promotion will be extended for a week and our concert will be moved the week after that. The members and I have deliberated so well about this and we have agreed to go with YG hyung’s proposal since this is our last shot already.

Actually, when our wives learned about these sudden changes, they went nuts for they are not expecting this at all. Railey has undergone surgery already and according to them, she’s already recuperating and everything went well. TOP hyung was able to breathe normally now for he’s been really nervous for his wife since she left for America. Truth is, he’s dying to follow her in America but Railey told him not to bother anymore and just focus with work. I can’t say anything more, that girl is really a tough one and she’s stronger than what we thought she is. I salute her for she handled cancer so well and now, all we’re waiting for positive news that says, she’s already good and out of sickness already. Daryl on the other hand is a bit funny because she promised Youngbae that she and Yuan will just stay in the States for three weeks but she’s the one who asked for an extension which made my buddy crazy. Now, we’re all worried for her because she’s already in her last month of pregnancy and she can give birth anytime. My wife is totally a different story, she’s taking things coolly but we’re missing each other so much already that there’s no day that we don’t talk to each other.

“mmmm”

“Hyung! Wake up now! We’re already running late!” I can hear Seungri and I don’t even know if I’m dreaming or not.

“HYUNG! We have to go now! Our performance will be a few hours from now and you’re still in bed!” he continued while I still figure out if he’s real or not.

“Aigoo hyung….I went here to wake you up….please wake up now…TOP hyung woke up earlier  than you and it’s really a miracle” he said, sounding so hopeless.

“AISH!” I said and almost hit his face with my elbow.

“Yah! Why do you have to be so loud? Huh?” I asked in annoyance and covered my face with the duvet.

Everybody knows that I’m not a morning person and the only human being that can wake me in the morning without ruining my mood is __________. Now that she’s not here, I’m back to being a morning monster again and the members, along with our managers are back to being human alarm clocks once again and in all fairness to me, I’m easier to wake up now than before.

“Hyung…we really need to move fast…we still have to go to the salon to get our hairs done” he speaks like a wife who is pressuring her husband to move faster like her life depends on me.

“Did my phone ring?” I peeked out the door to ask for I think I’ve heard my phone ring.

“Ani hyung….it’s mine” he said and showed his phone to me.

“Yah! Why do you have to have the same tone as mine?” I asked and he just chuckled.

Seungri is still Seungri. He still follows whatever I do and tries whatever I try. I don’t know, but maknae is taking care of me so well ever since __________ left. He’s the one accompanying me at home when I feel lonely and alone, and he even cleans the house if he feels like it.

And when I’m already set for work, Seungri and I drive to the salon already to get our day started. As usual, the members are all taking a nap while our professional team works wonders on their faces.

“Have you talked with _________ last night Jiyong-ah?” TOP hyung asked when I sit across him on the lounge area.

“Neh hyung….she told me that Railey is allowed to walk already…she’s recovering real fast” I told him and he sighed.

“I feel really bad because I cannot even take care of my own wife….your Omma needs to do things for her and Jiyong….I’m really thankful for her” he said and I smiled at him.

“Don’t worry about that hyung…Omma is so willing to take care of Railey….she’s like her daughter as well” I said.

Omma, who is supposed to come home last week has extended her stay in the States as well to take care of the girls. She told me that she’s enjoying every second of being with Railey, Daryl and __________ for they are so fun to be with. I can assure that for those girls can really make your day colorful in just a swish.

“Aigoo” TOP hyung said while looking at this phone.

“What is it hyung?” I asked curiously.

“Look at this” he showed me his phone with his three kids on the screen.

“Tabitha sent it….waaa…I miss them so much already” he said and it’s a bit weird hearing those words from TOP hyung coz he’s not that expressive before.

I don’t know why, but my kids are not even sending me their pictures at all. Sure, they call me every day and message’s me almost every five hours but they never sent a single picture to me yet. My children are really one of a kind for they always tell me that they’re all cool without me at home and it’s a bit saddening although I know that they are just playing around with me.

“OH!” I said when my phone vibrated.

“OMO!” I said with a huge smile on my face.

“I’ll bet my whole life in this Daesung hyung” I heard Seungri say in a soft voice “Jiyong hyung received a sweet message from __________ that’s why he’s smiling from ear to ear” he continued, making me look at him.

“Yah! Mind your own business!” I said and they laughed.

It seems like my children have read my mind and next thing I know it, I’m already staring at their pictures like what TOP hyung is doing beside me. What’s cute is, they even have captions in every picture and even included a picture of their mum’s belly.

“I’m doing my homework every day dad, so no need to worry about my grades. Love you dad! – Isabella”

“Borrowed your specs dad, coz it fits well with my outfit. I miss you so much already – Gabby”

“Dad, Aunt Dami bought me a doll two days ago. Isn’t it cute? I’m
