Chapter Text

Hello, dear friend.

 

I hope this letter reaches you well. First of all, I'm sorry if some of you have to read it with Jihoon. It's not that I like him more than you, but he's at the convenient place and I suspect will gather you guys just to read this boring letter. And I suspect he'll be screaming "Fuck you, Jeon!" at this moment.

 

(If I get that right, please call me, I made a bet with Soonie about it)

 

First thing first, we're both healthy, don't worry. I know you guys have heard his latest condition, but he's okay now. I have to admit he didn't have the smoothest pregnancy and taking care of a child is, honestly, quite a pain in the ass, but you know him. He's strong. And our son is an adorable little bundle of joy who hates making his mother suffer.

 

As I said in our previous letter years ago, the city where we lived when we were in college didn't get affected by Soonyoung's mood at all. The first time we arrived there, our Soonie cried a whole night in joy. He chanted how he was glad he could be normal, which was stupid, if I dare say, he's always normal. Weird, but normal.

 

Yes, you were also stupid for saying that he was not, Jihoonie, but since you were a hormonal, disturbed teenager back then, I assumed it was a slip of tongue. Soonie's forgotten about it tho, don't worry.

 

Anyway, yeah, we lived as a boring couple who struggled for money there and, well, basically just to be alive, like all of you. But then, listen to me here, you'll be surprised. Then, we got married, right? Most of you guys were all there, right?

 

That's okay, Mingyu. We understand you had a modeling job overseas at that time. You can stop sending us wine every month as an apology, it's been two years since the wedding. Just take care of Hao, okay? I heard he's having a delicate baby, so make sure he isn't overworked.

 

So, after we got married, I got a duty to fill in this current town's local hospital, that’s why we moved, right? Then, short after, our baby was born. That baby boy was born in this current town.

 

And guess what?

 

He controls this town's weather.

 

Yeap, you read that right. Gentlemen, we have Soonie 2.0 in much tinier, cuter, handsome form of him. Of course, I contributed to his genes after all. There is no way Soonie's and mine could mess up in creating the most superior baby both in brain and looks.

 

Yeah, roll your eyes as many as you want, I am stating facts only.

 

But anyway.

 

People in this town haven't had their suspicion yet. It's just something we figured out by ourselves, as rain pours as our Joonwoo is crying or the sun becomes so bright when he's laughing. We know what we're dealing with and it's a ticking clock until the people here realize. We don't know if we ever get so lucky to have people like you guys, who have been supporting Soonyoung for what his ability is, here. We don't know if our son will be accepted or bullied here.

 

But we have time. And by time, we can develop the townspeople to embrace it as a new normality. After all, this child was born here. He's this town's baby, just like Soonie is with yours. However, if things turn sour, we can always pack our bags and come back. Because we know, that town will always welcome us in tight embrace, no matter how far we both go.

 

That said, we're planning to come back next weekend. Our mothers have been whining for several weeks already, saying that they miss their grandson. Also, I feel the need to come and kiss Soonie's mother's feet as I, now, realize how hard it is to raise a child with weather controlling ability. It's like walking on a lake covered with thin ice every day. It can get really tiring, if not for Soonyoung's help.

 

He's been a very good mother and a very good husband. Every morning when I wake up and see his sleepy eyes as he whispers me a good morning, I've gone to Heaven and back again. No matter how often I am thankful for the deity up there and to you guys, it's never sufficient enough. So, let me say this again.

 

Thank you.

 

Thank you for always taking care of him. Thank you for trusting me to take care of him in his present and future. Please know that I always pray for your happiness, y'all, because I owe you ours.

 

Thank you.

 

We will see you next weekend and we've been dying to know your updates so do fill us, okay? We heard many things but we want proof. See you guys very soon.

 

Oh, and, Jihoon, Shua, we'll come to your wedding. Sorry we haven't sent back the attendance confirmation. I think we throw it away by mistake. Really sorry, man. But please know that we will come. Three attendees, with our little Joonwoo in tuxedo (I know Shua's gonna squeal in joy seeing him).

 

So that's that.

 

See you guys soon!

 

Regards,

The Jeons

Notes:

That's all, folks! The initial idea was that Wonwoo knows he's chosen by the deity, but upon meeting Soonyoung, he wishes he's in charge of someone else more..manageable. But anw, this clueless, open minded Wonwoo is more like it.

Thank you for reading!
