Yunho lifted his face from his hands and joined the children in waiting for her answer. “Do I have a boyfriend?” Sooyoung repeated the question, pausing for a while before she shook her head and grinned. “No, I don’t have one… I never had one. Why?”

The dark haired man grimaced, hoping the children wouldn’t use the opportunity to again when Kwangsoo answered the question. “Noona, can you wait until I grow up? I want to marry you.”

    Sooyoung laughed at the honest, innocent confession and Yunho found himself scowling, straightening up when he caught the pointed look Boa shot him. Yunho sighed as more and more questions were thrown at Sooyoung, not knowing if he could ever get to ask his own. Reasoning that it wouldn’t be proper to ask them in front of the children, Yunho did his best to facilitate the session until Hyoyeon declared it was time for a break; the children dashing for the donuts that Sooyoung had brought.

    Yunho had practically dashed for the playground at the back of the orphanage, sighing in relief when he found it surprisingly empty. It looked just like the way it did when he, himself, lived as an orphan in the shelter. Sure, everything was a newer version of what the orphanage had all those years ago but everything was still in the right place. Yunho ran a hand down his face; a small smile gracing his lips as he sat on one end of the seesaw; laughter soon bubbling out of his mouth as the other end rose up and he realized how dumb he must look.

“This is pretty much like the first time I ever spoke to you.”
