“So Jung ah, come here,” Jung Su laid on the white carpet. He raised the toy in his right hand to attract So Jung’s attention.

So Jung sat on the floor and had her eyes on the toy her father is holding. She stood up and slowly walked towards Jung Su who then carried her up high. She laughed as Jung Su played with her.

“Oppa, stop playing with So Jung, dinner is ready,” So Ra came out from the kitchen and took off her apron.

“So Jung, let’s feed our stomach, okay?” Jung Su told So Jung as he let her sits on the baby chair.

So Jung is almost three years old. She resembles So Ra, both looks and personalities. She would only be playful when she is with her parents, Hyo Lyn, Hee Chul, Han Geng and Young Woon. She would be quiet and look afraid when she is with strangers.

“Oppa, I’m going to Taiwan next month,” So Ra told Jung Su when they are on the bed.

“For how long?” Jung Su asked her.

“Depends,” So Ra replied. “Hopefully the things over there will be settled in a week time.”

“Araso. I’ll take care of So Jung. Don’t worry,” Jung Su kissed on her forehead.

“I’m never worried,” So Ra smiled at him.

It isn’t the first time So Ra leaves Jung Su and So Jung and flies to Taiwan. Jung Su is no doubt a great husband and father. He took great care of these two most important women in his life. After sending So Ra off at the airport, Jung Su dropped So Jung off at a kindergarten not far away from his café.

“So Jung didn’t come here today?” Hee Chul walked into Jung Su’s office and looked for So Jung.

“She’s at the kindergarten,” Jung Su replied.

“What time are you picking her up?” Hee Chul asked.

“Around three. Why?” Jung Su asked.

“There is a new buffet restaurant at Hongdae. Young Woon asked us to go there for tonight’s dinner,” Hee Chul answered.

“You can tell me about it on the phone,” Jung Su responded.

“Cause I thought my little niece will be here,” Hee Chul’s intention is clear. He came to look for his niece, not the father.

“Araso. I’ll meet you all there tonight,” Jung Su said.

Jung Su went to pick So Jung when the clock struck three in the afternoon. They went home to get changed before heading to the dinner venue. When they walked into the restaurant, Hee Chul spotted them and ran towards them.

“Aigoo, wuli So Jung ah,” Hee Chul carried So Jung and walked towards the seat Han Geng and Young Woon are at.

“So Jung ah, did you miss samchon?” Young Woon asked So Jung.

“Aniyo,” So Jung shook her head.

“Aigoo, my heart breaks into pieces,” Young Woon pretended to be heart broken, causing So Jung to laugh.

Jung Su picked So Jung’s favourite food and placed them on a plate so that she could learn to eat by her own. Hee Chul and Han Geng would make sure that So Jung eats well while Jung Su chatted with Young Woon. The five of them even visited a café before going to a separate way back to home.

So Ra listened as her manager in Taiwan’s outlet did her reporting. When the manager walked away, So Ra noticed the calendar on her desk. Something crossed her mind the moment she looked at the date. As soon as she finished her work in Taiwan, she took a flight back to Seoul.

“So Jung ah, see who’s back?” Jung Su walked towards the door when the doorbell rang.

“Umma!” So Jung stopped playing with her toy and ran towards So Ra.

“So Jung ah, umma miss you so much,” So Ra put down her bag and hugged So Jung.

“I miss umma too,” So Jung said.

“So Jung ah, do you want to have a dongsaeng?” So Ra asked So Jung as she led her to the sofa

“So Ra, you’re pregnant?” Jung Su heard the conversation between his wife and his daughter, walking towards both of them who are sitting on the sofa.

“Ne, oppa,” So Ra turned around and smiled at Jung Su. “I did a check-up at Taiwan. I’m pregnant for two months.”

“I’m going to be a father again,” Jung Su kissed So Ra.

“Oppa,” So Ra slightly pushed Jung Su away. “So Jung is here.”

“Umma, So Jung is going to be noona?” So Jung asked her mother.

“How do you know you’re going to be noona instead of unnie?” Jung Su chuckled.

So Jung is right about being a noona. They found out about the baby’s gender when So Ra had her check-up. So Jung was so happy, knowing that she will be having a baby brother soon. From the experience gained during So Ra’s first pregnancy, the couple decided to stay in the hospital when So Ra’s delivery date is close.

“Congratulation. It’s a baby boy. Your wife will be sent to the mother’s ward in a while,” A nurse came out from the delivery room, carrying the new member of this family in her arms.

“Park So Won, annyong,” Jung Su greeted his new-born son. “I’m your appa.”

So Ra is discharged from the hospital after three days. When the three of them reached home, So Jung jumped off the sofa and ran towards them. Hee Chul laughed at So Jung’s desperation to meet her brother.

“Umma, this is So Won?” So Jung looked at So Won, who is sleeping in So Ra’s arms.

“Ne,” So Ra replied.

“So Won, I’m your noona,” So Jung said to So Won.

“I shall leave the house to you guys,” Hee Chul said to the couple. He has been here for the past three days, taking care of So Jung who kept pleading him to bring her to the hospital but he told her not to.

“Thanks for taking care of So Jung,” Jung Su said to Hee Chul.

The couple sent off Hee Chul. So Ra placed So Won on the bed and laid down beside him. Jung Su stopped So Jung from entering the room as So Ra needs rest. So Jung listened to her father and played with her toys quietly.
