The next day, while Chanyeol was preparing to sleep, he decided to call Chunji. It may be about time that the kids will be going to 

school and they'd be at the flower shop soon. He got up to the drawer beside his bed and dialed Chunji's number.

"Yeobeoseyo?"

"Yeobeoseyo?"

"Chunji, what time is it there?"

"9 am. The kids just left for school."

"Oh. Geurae?"

"What's wrong? You sound really down."

"I'm.. It's not about me. It's about your family."

"Is it about Ellie calling you appa? It doesn't have to be like that if you're awkward with it."

"No, it's totally fine. I called because of Ljoe."

"Did you talk to him?"

"I saw him. I SEE him everyday, Chunji."

"How is he? Is he eating well? Is he fine?" instead

"Oh, he is FINE. In fact he's doing really well that he seems to have forgotten his family waiting for him there in Korea!"

"Chanyeol, will you please calm down? What are you talking about?"

"Ljoe is with Victoria and her little girl Ella."

"So? I dont think that's something to be worried about. Maybe he's just seeking for new company, Chanyeol."

"Well, I dont think so. From what I see, Chunji, he's been treating Victoria the way he treated you before you were married with 

him. He takes her to lunch, he buys gifts for Ella, and the kid even calls him APPA! I saw them in a classy restaurant and it was only 

the two of them. It'd be forgivable if the kid was there but it was just the two of them. Victoria and Ljoe. They were pouring wine 

and smiling at each other."

"Maybe it was just a company thing that they needed to discuss at that restaurant. He's being a gentleman, Chanyeol."

"If that was a 'company thing' I would've known. I know all of Ljoe's schedules inside and outside of the office."

"Look, Ellie calls you appa right now. So why make a fuss about it? I understand that he's really busy right now especially about that 

concert for a cause that your company is preparing.

"Chunji. Please!! You cannot just simply take these matters lightly. He's a married man and he has a child!"

"I am not! What do you expect me to say?! HOW DARE HE?! ASK HIM WHY THE HE'S NOT CALLING US ANYMORE? IS HE 

ENJOYING THAT NEW COMPANY HE HAS?! DID HE FIND A PERFECT FAMILY FOR HIM THERE WITH VICTORIA?!! JUMP INTO A 

CONCLUSION AND SAY HE'S CHEATING ON ME??!! You know I couldn't do that. I couldn't. Sure as hell, I am ing worried about 

him but I cannot break down and cry in front of Ellie. If he's doing something that makes him happy, even if it's something that may 

make me sad, just let him ing do it. If he continues to do that flirting he has that's ongoing with him and Victoria, I will not let 

him see his child ever again." 

Chanyeol could hear Chunji crying on the other line but he couldn't help getting shocked at him. This was the first time ever that he  

heard  Chunji break down and scream or even just this angry.

"Chanyeol, tell me, did he look happy?"

"I don't know, Chunji. I don't know if he's really happy or just smiling to relieve the stress. What are you gonna do?"

"I don't know what I can do to Victoria and Ljoe. But one thing's for sure, I'm not giving him up. If he's the bastard who got swayed 

easily and forgot us, I'm gonna be the dumb one who holds on even if it hurts." 

"After the concert, we'll be heading back to Korea. You can discuss things with him by then. It'll be a month away."

"No, I cant wait for that."

"What do you mean?"

"I'll tell you later. Just go and rest and I'll have this planned with Baekhyun. We have costumers coming in the shop already. Bye."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
After their conversation in the cafe, Baekhyun and Chunji went in the store. They had a busy day and there were more costumers 

than usual because of birthdays, anniversaries, and parties. But even though Chunji was receiving such a beating because of work 

and Baekhyun was already beat up and tired, he continued to work like there was no tomorrow. He didn't feel tired, all he had in 

mind was how he wanted to solve the problem his family had, to bring back Ljoe to his rightful place as Ellie's father. As he was 

tying the ribbon on one boquet.

"Yah, it was you who told me that flowers are delicate things and they should be handled with care. That's the reason why there 

are no machines made to arrange flowers right?"

"I know."

"You know and yet you keep doing what you're doing now? You look like a robot!"

Chunji placed down the rose he was about to put in another boquet that he was about to start making. He took a seat at the table 

and looked at Baekhyun.

"I'm bothered. Do you remember what we talked about in the cafe before we went here?"

"Of course. I dont have short-term memory loss. But you know best that Ljoe could never do that to you and Ellie."

"Yeah, BUT you know best that Chanyeol would never lie to anyone."

"He wasn't really saying that Ljoe was cheating. I guess he was just trying to tell you to contact Ljoe first. He's always busy these 

days so maybe you need to reach out to him and relieve even just a little of that stress he's getting because of that concert."

"Reach out?"

"Uhuh. I mean you cant literally do that. He's in Canada and you're here so it's geographically impossible but you can call on him 

and check out on his day. Like how Chanyeol and I usually do these days."

"It's geographically impossible for now Baekhyun. But all we have to do is ride a plane and it wont be impossible anymore."

"What are you planning to do?"

"We're going to Canada."

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

"Seonsaengnim, we personally came here to deliver this excuse letter. Ellie and Hyeonchan are going to Canada with us to meet 

their fathers." Chunji said as he placed two letters on the principal's table, each with the label "LEE ELLIE" and "PARK HYEONCHAN".

"We're so sorry to do this all suddenly. It's just that something urgent came up and we need to fly to Canada by the next day."

"Gwaenchanhayo. But we have to inform Hyeonchan and Ellie's new moderator. She just came in to replace Miss Yunji."

"Oh, Miss Yunji was pregnant right?"Baekhyun asked.

"Yes. She needed to leave teaching because her pregnancy was very dangerous for her and the baby. She needed to stay at 

home so we hired a new teacher."

"We heard a little about the new teacher from the kids and I guess the kids' reaction to the sudden change was good."Baekhyun 

replied.

"We weren't able to join the recent Parent-Teacher Conference so this will be the first time we'll meet her." Chunji added.

"There are two teachers you need to talk to, though."

"Why is that? I thought they only had one moderator."

"This time we have two for each class, a moderator and a co-moderator. This way the kids will be more behaved and will listen to 

the instructions well. And it was a real jackpot since the two new teachers applied together. They look comfortable with working 

together. One of them was an idol before, and now he just writes songs. The other one was a trainee at Shine Entertainment but she 

stopped. Baekhyun-ssi was also an idol right? So I guess you'll get to have a good conversation with them both. "

"Shine Entertainment? That's Ljoe's Company."Baekhyun said and looked at Chunji who was looking down as soon as he heard the 

company name.

"Well, you probably would recognize them, too, Mr. Lee." The principal said. Chunji nodded in reply.

"That's pretty cool. They ended up being teachers instead of being bums." Baekhyun said.

"Anyway, would you be pulling the kids out of class today?"

"Yes ma'am. We still need to prepare our things and travel to Busan to say our farewell to their grandparents."

"If that's the case we have to go now. They'll be in the classroom having their homeroom period."

They walked towards Ellie and Hyeonchan's classroom. The other classrooms were quiet but their classroomwas oozing out of the 

kids singing a song. Familiar voices were leading the children sing and when the principal opened the door, Baekhyun and Chunji 

were totally shocked. It was Luna and L. Both were as shocked as they were and they stopped singing but the kids continued to. The 

song ended and L snapped out of it. 

"Very good! We will have the song presentation next meeting okay?" he said and the kids replied a short yes to him.

" Miss Principal is here along with visitors. What do we do when we meet visitors?" Luna added.

"2nd grade class A!" Hyeonchan was the class representative so she stood up and lead the class. 

"Annyeonghaseyo!" the whole class responded while sitting down and they bowed. Hyeonchan sat back down when everyone 

finished greeting. 

"Ne, annyeong~!" Baekhyun greeted back and winked at his baby girl who smiled back sweetly at him.

"Children, Ms. Luna and Mr. L needs to see the visitors. Class representative please take charge of the class." The principal instructed 

and Hyeonchan once again stood up and bowed to acknowledge her words.

"This way please." The principal said and she lead all the four of them down the corridor away from the kids' classroom.

"Miss Luna and Mr.L, These is Mr.Lee Chanhee and Mr. Byun Baekhyun. They are the parents of Lee Ellie and Park Hyeonchan." 

Ms.Principal started off with introducing them to each other as parents and teachers.

"Chunji-ah! You never told me Ellie was your kid!"

"You never told me that you were my Ellie's teacher! Have the two of you been well?" Chunji said excitedly. But Baekhyun 

somehow felt like there was something wrong. He felt great to meet the two again but something was off about the meeting so he 

wasnt able to greet them the way Chunji did.

"Ne. We've finished college about a year ago. And we opened our little music school." Luna said shyly. Although the Luna that 

talked to Chunji this time was a very different Luna that he met in the flower shop years ago, he didnt mind. 

"It's been so long. Why didnt you even call me right after you announced that you were en
