A/N: Wasn't able to give you some updates yesterday coz I was out for enrollment. Less than a month and I'll go back to school. /cries/

“So how was it?” Jonghyun and Yeojin were on their way home after he picked her up from her mother's house. She was so excited to know about what happened in the mini reunion.

“Well...” Jonghyun smiled and took a glance on her. “It was chaotic. We were as noisy as before. Like really, I thought nothing changed. It made me go back to my teenage years.” He said still amused at how all of them suddenly met and gathered together in an instant. “Though it's obvious that we grew up, still we're the same stupid kids back then.” He chuckled.

“Looks like you had lots of fun! Tell me more about it!” Yeojin happily tilted her whole body to have a better look of Jonghyun. She seemed very eager to have Jonghyun share the event to her.

“Originally, Taemin was a bit irritated coz Jinki called for a gathering on a wrong time. He was making some moves on his new prospect who was one of the choreographers he met on some event before.” Taemin was asking her out when he called – and yes, he was not able to take her out that night – because Jinki told him he has something more important to do.

Yeojin giggled. “Taemin really likes to hang out with girls, huh?”

“Nah. Taemin likes to play with girls.” He corrected and laughed a bit louder. “Kibummie. He said he'll participate in Seoul Fashion Week as a design contributor next month. He saw Minho and asked if he can ramp for him. Minho didn't agree, as always.”

“Oh yeah. Minho is goodlooking. He can really be a model. No wonder Kibum wants him to be a model. He's tall, too and...” She stopped when Jonghyun glared at her.

“Tall... right. You like tall people.” Jonghyun said and made a disappointing sound. Yeojin was amused and chuckled at her husband who suddenly started sulking while driving. “Tsk Tsk” He shook his head.

“Aigoo~ My hubby's getting jealous over his friend.” She said and pinched his cheek.

“Yahhh~” Jonghyun whined like a little kid but Yeojin just giggled harder.

“You are so cute. I love you~” Upon hearing those words from Yeojin, Jonghyun couldn't help but break a smile. He easily gives up when he starts hearing these words from her. Yeojin chuckled – she was satisfied enough.

“Hmm. How about Minho ssi?” She asked after a while.

“His son is so cute.” Jonghyun smiled even wider upon remembering Yoogeun. “So Eun said Yoogeun likes to listen to Onew's songs... and you know some of his favorites? Those songs that I made for Onew.” He said proudly towards his wife.

“Really? Wow! The kid has some sense!”

Jonghyun nodded excitedly, “Yes. And he also wants to play piano, guitar and drums! Minho always buys him toy instruments. I guess that child will follow his uncle's footsteps.”

“He needs to follow his father's footsteps, Jonghyunnie~” Yeojin said cutely and poked his arm while getting all fascinated about Jonghyun's reaction.

“Well, definitely.” Jonghyun nodded, “But just in case he's not interested into soccer, then I'm willing to give him my throne.” He laughed – as if proud of everything that he's got right now.

“You seemed so fond of him all of a sudden.”

“That's because I've always love kids.” Jonghyun said and suddenly, the atmosphere became a bit awkward and uncomfortable. He sighed and took another glance over Yeojin. “I don't mean anything with what I said, okay?” He asked and Yeojin just nodded.

“I'm sorry I can't still give you a child. I mean... I still want to work.” She explained and rubbed his thighs to console him. “But once I'm ready for it, I promise to be a full time mother to your child. I'll give him all the attention and if he wants to follow his appa's footsteps, I'll surely support him.”

Jonghyun smiled again and gave up. He has always been like this. Whatever Yeojin says, it will just surely melt his heart. He nodded and took one hand over Yeojin's hand that was on his thighs. “I'll take note of that, okay?”

They smiled, and chatted about the rest of the happenings until they reach the house.

“Okay. Clean yourself up and go upstairs so we could rest.” Soeun patted Yoogeun's lightly and the child immediately followed what his mother said. Meanwhile, Minho and Soeun were left there in the living area together.

“Minho-yah, I think you should go now. It's getting late.”

“What are your plans? You can't stay away from everyone right at this moment.” Minho said and it was obvious that he was heavily concerned and worried.

Soeun only shook her head and tried her best to look better. “As long as Jonghyun won't know Yoogeun's his son, then I'm fine with that.”

“Are you going to keep up with the idea that they thought we're married? They're not strangers, they are our friends. It's impossible to hide the truth from them for so long.” Minho explained emphasizing the fact that the time when the members realize they were not married will surely come fast. “Eventually, they will learn that Yoogeun is not really my son. What are you going to tell them then if they ask?”

“I don't know.” So Eun replied shortly. “I knew it would happen, but I have never really thought of what I should do. All I know is that, I don't want to make other people's lives complicated.”

“It's not making other people's lives complicated, it's doing the right thing.” Minho told her and she thought he had the point.

“Maybe it's too late to do the right thing.” Soeun shrugged her shoulders and tried to smile. “Don't worry. Yoogeun and I will be fine together.”

“I told you before that I'm willing to be Yoogeun's father so he won't have to seek for anyone else, but Soeun... if you ask me about what's right, then it's about time you should tell Jonghyun about him.”

“No.” Soeun insisted. “Please. No. I beg you, Minho. Don't ever tell Jonghyun about this.”

“I promise.” Minho said. “But I don't know for how long. I'm willing to do everything for you and Yoogeun, and I know somehow, telling the truth to Jonghyun is better, and besides, I know him. He's my friend. I know he will take it positively and hopefully make his wife understand. Doing this will make everyone of us move on, and I also think...” Minho paused for a while and looked into her eyes. “That once you have the chance to finally talk to him and tell the truth, then it will set you free... and I'm hoping, that once everything falls out into proper pieces, then you can start opening your heart again... for me.”

Minho pulled Soeun for a hug, then he rubbed her back gently implying that he'll always be there for her no matter what happened. “Kay. I'm going.” He said after getting away from her. She nodded and he walked out of the door leaving.

As Soeun went to their room and checked on Yoogeun, she saw her son in the bed, but he wasn't sleeping. He was busy playing with his guitar toy. “Umma. Can I really ask Uncle Jonghyun to teach me?” He asked with eyes sparkling in excitement.

Soeun sighed and instead of answering, she went to the bed and sat beside his son. “Before that, I want you to talk to umma about what happened in school a while ago.”

Remembering what he did, Yoogeun's expression became a bit heavy. He put down his toy and looked at his fingers with a sullen face. “He told me I don't have an appa, and my real appa left us because he doesn't love me.” Yoogeun looked up at his mother with his tears about to fall from his face. “Omma, if Minho appa is not my real appa, then who is?” He asked.

She didn't know what to say and couldn't say a word. This is one of the hardest things to explain to her son. “Did he really leave us because he didn't want me?” Hearing that from Yoogeun made Soeun's heart broken. Upon all the things she never wanted to see, it's to have her one and only son feel sad and sorrowful. She rubbed his back and consoled him.

“Can I still be able to see my real appa? When?”

“Isn't umma enough?” Soeun asked. “I ran away from your appa, because I only want you for myself.” She didn't know if that was a good reason, or it could only make Yoogeun hate her. She was just really out of explanations, and so she ended up saying that.

Yoogeun then suddenly wrapped his arms around his mother and hugged her tightly. “Omma, we need my real appa because he needs to protect us. Don't worry. Once he comes back, Yoogeun will make sure that omma will never get jealous.” He said like a young man who loves his mother very much. “Please let me see my appa.” He said.
