APRIL 2022
True Lovers are really two halves of the same person. It says that people wander around searching for their other half, and when they found the right person, that would be the time that they are finally whole and perfect... kind of.
Yongsun knew that this is exactly what happened to them. They found each other, they lost each other, now, all they have to do is find their way back to the other. That's what she did. This is her life story and their love story.
Yong spent her days gaining Wheein's trust back. She spent her days making Wheein laugh. But it wasn't all sunshine and rainbows, they fought, they misunderstood each other a few times, but Yong learned her lesson. She never leaves Wheein's side whatever happens, whatever it takes, she's always by her side.
It took both of them years to learn how to redo everything that went wrong. But once they did, they knew how to do everything right.
Yongsun learned how to talk to her.
Yongsun learned how to hold her.
Yongsun learned how to kiss her.
"Baby, please, sit still will you? You told me, you love me, it's in your vows, why aren't you listening to me?"
"I kinda sorta exaggerated when I asked you to marry me..." Wheein said with a cocky smirk. Yong shot a glare on Wheein's face, she raised an eyebrow and shakes her head.
"WHAT?! You're impossible! You exaggerated in your vow?"
"I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one, am I?"
"YES!"
"I'm sure everyone else did it too!" Wheein laughed, she loves teasing Yongsun like this. "Come on!"
"Shut the fuck up, babe! I have something to tell you!" Yongsun whines as she kept Wheein to sit still. If you can see both of them now, comparing to what they are like before, it so different, because Yongsun and Wheein learned how to exist without fear, they both learned how to exist without doubt. It took them years to finally do that. Its a process, a process that they both enjoy overcoming together.
"Ugh, then what do you want from me?" Wheein asked looking at Yong, directly into her eyes. Yongsun can't help but smile, she loves Wheein so much.
"Did you know that all I want is to marry you, have a family with you and grow old with you..." Yongsun said and Wheein smiled.
"We're already old, babe. Well, you are-" Wheein said and Yongsun immediately slaps her arms. "Ouch!"
"Shut up..."
"Well... I want to grow older with you." Wheein took back what she said earlier.
"How old?"
"Grey hair old..." Wheein said leaving Yongsun blushing and giggling like an idiot.
"Are you still gonna love me? If we reached that point, Whee? What do you think?" Wheein reached for Yong's hands and kissed her fingers.
"Yong... I fell inlove with YOU, not on the color of your hair..."
"God, I'm so inlove with you, and I'm also so sorry that I hurt you, but I just couldn't simply exist without you..."
"It's all in the past, Yong. I still believe that up unto this day, that you and I are destined to be together, not everyone has the chance to redo things, to make past mistakes rights, maybe we are one of the lucky ones that really made it, and I'm so thankful for that." Wheein said and Yongsun smiled at her, already tearing up, I swear she almost forgot that she has something to say to her wife.
Sometimes you meet someone and even though you never liked tattoos, you learn to love its shapes and colors and you wouldn't want them any other way.
Sometimes you met someone whose strangest addiction became beautiful.
Sometimes you met someone who's addiction became your own, like a favorite TV show or love for cooking... or love for music.
Sometimes you meet someone who'll skip their favorite TV show just to spend time with you.
And if you're lucky enough to find that person... Marry them.
Yongsun and Wheein been through all of those shit, and maybe they really deserve this love... and more.
"Why are you keep staring at me? You're making me scared-"
"Shhh shhh okay, keep it down. Listen."
Wheein immediately stopped talking and looked at Yong, hoping to hear some silly news Yong decided to share with her today. "What? Have you discover new cake flavor again?"
"You're going to be a mom, Wheein..." Yongsun said in her soft voice and Wheein's face just turned blank. "I said we did it, it worked! I am pregnant, babe!" Yongsun said and Wheein's face turned immediately from blank to confused, to shock, and to the excitement, as she brings her knees to her chest and covered her face with her hands.
"Please please, don't joke about that!"
"I am not joking! Look!" Yongsun said giving Wheein a brown envelop and letting Wheein read her result.
Wheein snatched the papers out of her hands as she tries her hardest not to ripped any page open, "This is the second time I'm holding a paper like this-"
"DON'T YOU DARE EVEN-" Yongsun warned as she tries to forget that awful day, ugh, still makes her gag until today.
"Oh my god! Baby!" Wheein shouted as she sets the envelope down to the floor. "Thank you so much-"
"Why are you thanking-"
"Thank you, thank you, thank you, I love you." Wheein said and Yongsun just leaned closer to her wife and wraps Wheein in a tight hug.
"I love you too and thank you so much for being patient with me." Yongsun said and Wheein just hugged her wife even tighter.
Wheein breaks the hug and "Shhhh... I don't care how the heck we got at this point, all that matters to me now is that-" Wheein stopped. "Oh my god! I'm gonna be a mom, Yong!!!!"
"Well... me too, but sure babe-" Yongsun stopped when Wheein pulled her into a tight hug. "Happy birthday baby..."
"What the hell is that?"
"It's a ribbon! Read it!" Yongsun said and Wheein took it from her.
"Jung Wheein, would you like to be the mom of my baby?" Wheein laughs as she reads the text. "You're such an idiot, Yong! Of course! I want to! I want to so much!" Wheein said as she excitedly waves the congratulatory ribbon in the air.
"Ahhh!!! This is so embarrassing! Why are you filming me!" Wheein asked and she just rolled to the floor because she can't keep the excitement to herself. "I hate you! Stop filming me, Yongsun!"
"Why? You looks so cute! Don't cover your face, Jung Wheein! Let me see you blushed!" Yongsun shouted and they were staying at Jeonju for Wheein's birthday so, her mom and dad came rushing into their bedroom because they hear loud shouting.
"Honey what is happening-"
"MOM! DAD!" Wheein stood up, jumping up and down. "Yong is pregnant! It worked! We are having a baby!" Wheein shouted and the Jungs jaw dropped as they slowly looked at Yongsun's direction. "Oh my gosh! I'm gonna be a mom!"
"Yongsun, honey, is that true?" Yong stood up as she nodded and Wheein's mom threw herself at Yong and hugged her so tight.
"Mom! Be careful! You're squeezing my kid!" Wheein said as she breaks the hug between Yong and her mom, but then she does the same thing and envelops Yong in a tight hug. "I love you so much, Kim Yongsun!"
"I know!"
"Wait... How are we gonna show up to award shows?" Wheein asked because, after the concert, they're booked with events from left and right.
"It's not gonna show yet, we'll be fine. We're announcing it once we know the gender." Yongsun said and Wheein nods happily.
"God! I can't wait! Wooo!"

HUGE TIME JUMP
JANUARY 2029
(Mom = Wheein ; Mommy = Yongsun)
Yongsun and Wheein were in a rush for Yohan's school recital. At the age of six, he became an overachiever like his Mom, Wheein is just so proud that Yohan took her love for music. Maybe because when Yong's still pregnant with him, Wheein always sings to him. Maybe he likes it so much that he started playing musical instruments at a very young age. Yohan's day didn't go as planned, thank god Byul and Hyejin always got their backs and brought Yohan early to his school to participate in the final rehearsals because Yong and Wheein face some hellish situation at home... the twins.
"Baby-can you-ugh-" Wheein said as she struggled to zip her dress. Yongsun approached her wife immediately and help her fix her dress. "Thank you... love you," Wheein said placing a kiss on her wife's cheeks and Yongsun smiled, these little moments in between are what they treasured the most.
"Can you?" It's Yong's turn to ask for help as she turns around and Wheein immediately returned the favor. "Thanks.." Yongsun faces the mirror inside their bedroom and looked at herself and smiled. That never really goes away, Wheein giggled looking at her wife checking herself out.
"See? You still look really beautiful over the years..." Wheein said as she hugged Yong from the back and kiss her cheeks.
"You too..." Yongsun said as she kissed Wheein's cheek that is currently resting comfortably on her shoulders. "They grew up so fast..."
"Yohan's six, what are you talking about? He just finished his first grade." Wheein said smiling as she looks in the mirror, watching how she and Yong maintained a relationship and actually raised three kids in their home, she never imagined being a capable parent before, not gonna lie, but she actually shocked herself this time.
"I don't know, he had his first crush!" Yongsun said as tears start forming around her gorgeous eyes.
Wheein turned Yong around and caressed her face. "And? It's fine. I had crushes before, you do too right? I had a huge crush on you, it's normal." Wheein said placing a light kiss on Yongsun's lips.
"Aww, you had a crush on me?" Yongsun said and she started blushing.
"We're married, Yong."
"STILL!" Yongsun said as she pouts that made Wheein shake her head.
"Ugh, I love you so much."
"I love-"
They were interrupted when the Jung twins came into the room, Yoonah, and Yoonhee, running like little madmen that they are.
"Mommy… Yoonah stole my crown!" Yoonhee shouted as she came rushing in and immediately tugging Yongsun's dress. "Make her give it back!" Yong turned around and kneeled to face her pouting daughter and she couldn't help but roll her eyes.
Yongsun smiles every time she sees the twins because, one, both of them look so much like Wheein when she was still a little girl and their donor this time has got some nice height making the twins taller than most kids their age, they're three. Yoonah and Yoonhee are one of the tallest kids on their daycare, as much as Hyejin and Byul want to babysit the kids, having the twins is just too much for them. Yongsun and Wheein decided to have them on a daycare during their workdays. It's Sunday, so the people who take care of the twins are on a day off and they have to deal with the twins by themselves as Byul and Hyejin lookout for Yohan who's in school already.
"No, Mom! It's mine!" Yoonah cries as she approaches Wheein with the said crown in her hand. "You bought this for me, Mom! right?" Wheein took a deep breath and Yongsun just watch Wheein deal with the twins, Wheein improved so much on the parenting department not gonna lie, maybe the twins pushed her inner mom out.
"Look, Yoonah, sweetie, Mommy, and I bought so many accessories and bows and clips for the two of you already." Wheein reached out her arms inviting for the other twin to approach her. Yoonhee removed her hand from tugging Yong's dress and walk closer to Wheein. "Why don't you use the other color crown, Yoonhee?"
"Beeeee-CAUSE!!!" Yoonhee said as she stomped her foot. "That one is MINE! I'm wearing my pink dress, I need the pink crown!" Yoonhee pouted shooting daggers on her little sister, Yoonah, wearing a similar dress but in blue color.
Yongsun felt like it's time to step into the commotion as she placed a hand on her wife's shoulders. "Both of you own that crown, sweetie… just like all the other ones are, you share things..." Wheein tap Yong's hand that is resting on her shoulder as a silent thank you for saving her.
"But Mommy... That's-" Yoonhee was about to say something.
"Sweetie, no..." Yongsun said as she calmed the minute older twin, Yoonhee.
"Mom?" Yoonhee tries to bargain one more time but Wheein just smiled at her.
"Yoonhee, sweetie, go, you get one from your things, let Yoonah wear this one okay?" Wheein said as she places a kiss on her daughter's cheeks. Yoonhee exits the bedroom marching to get a new crown as she stomps her feet.
Yoonah with the pink crown in her hands approaches Yong and the actress carried the girl in her arms, she helps her be seated on the bed and fix the crown to her head. Yoonah started smiling and giggling as Yongsun fix the crown to her head. "Yoonah... That is not nice, if you took the crown just to hurt your sister's feelings then that is mean, and I don't like that, Mommy doesn't like that-" Yongsun pointed at Wheein. "Mom, don't like that either." Wheein nodded. "Mommy and Mom will get mad at you, do you want that?"
"I'm sorry, mommy. No. Yoonah doesn't like Mom and Mommy mad." Yongsun nodded and smiled. Wheein gave the youngest a smile before she stood up and make her way to the door.
"I'll go check the other one," Wheein said as she exits the room and found the little one going through their shared stuff. Wheein helped the little girl choose a pretty color and fix it to her, and it actually doesn't match her pink dress. Wheein smiled at Yoonhee and pinches her red cheeks.
"I know you think this is the end of the world baby but I promise you, it'll be fine… look how pretty this looks on you... C'mon give Mom a smile..." Wheein said as she comforts her daughter.
"Fine," Yoonhee said and she straightened Yoonhee's dress.
"You look like my pretty little princess," Wheein said encouraging the older twin to cheer up. "I'll buy you something later to make up for it, deal?"
"Okay... deal..." Yoonhee answered sadly, then Yong came with Yoonah in her arms smiling. Yong let Yoonah approach her older sister and she hugged her.
"I'm sorry, Yoonhee." Yoonah hugged her sister and Yoonhee looked at Wheein first and when Wheein smiled and nodded her head, she returned the hug and muttered something in a soft voice.
"It's okay... you can have it." Yoonhee said and Yongsun smiled and looked at Wheein's direction who's already looking at her.
"You didn't just bribe her, did you?" Yongsun said and Wheein's smile gave it away. Yup, they are going shopping again later.
"I'm sorry, I tried, babe." Wheein said and Yongsun giggled. "As much as my parenting skill, all I can offer our kids are bribes."
No, she laughed. Yongsun laughs.
She loved the fact that even after all these years Wheein can still make her laugh with literally doing nothing, she's so happy that she created this family with Wheein.
And there was nothing better than that… she had never once regretted her decisions to marry and start a family with the woman of her dreams and looking back now she wondered why she was ever worried to begin with, why she is so scared before.
This was their happy ending.
And she wanted to always hold on to this feeling.
All four of them rushed to Yohan's school. Yongsun is carrying Yoonah, as Wheein and Yoonhee walking hand in hand in front of them. But that didn't last long, Yoonah wriggled herself out of Yong's arms at Yoonhee let go of Wheein's hands as soon as they saw Hyejin and Byul waiting for them at the main door of the auditorium.
"Mama Byul!!!" Yoonhee rushed to Byul and Byul immediately carried the girl and threw her lightly to the air that made Yongsun drop her jaw and ready to punch Byul, but she stopped when she felt her wife tugged her dress and shakes her head, then she heard Yoonhee laughing as Byul threw her repeatedly up in the air.
"Byulyi I swear to god-"
"Babe, it's fine." Wheein said as she wraps her arms around Yong's waist.
Yoonah slowly made her way to Hyejin and Hyejin shuffles to her bag and gives a big ass lollipop to the girl. "To my little princess..." Hyejin said as she drags the girl inside and let her seat on one of the couch in the lobby helped her open the lollipop.
"Mama Hyegiiiiiii! Thank you, Mom and Mommy refuse to by us candies." Yoonah said and Hyejin winked at the little girl.
"Yes, because they both sucked. But don't tell them that." Hyejin said placing a soft kiss on the girl's head.
"Oh my god-" Yongsun started and Wheein just laughing watching everything happen at the same time. "Are you seeing this-" Yongsun stopped when she looked at Wheein and saw her laughing. "Are you kidding me?!"
"What? Let them, it's not every day that they are spoiling the kids-"
"Yes, and thank God for that. You are the one spoiling them when Byul and Hyejin are not around. The three of you, what are you all doing to my kids?!" Yongsun said as she hurried inside following Byul and Yoonhee who's still laughing together.
"Hey, they are my kids too!" Wheein said running after Yongsun, "Aren't we going to look for Yohan?" Wheein asked and Yongsun took a paused and let a deep sight.
"Right..." Yongsun said and everyone looked at their direction when they entered the room. Some give them smiles, some were subtly taking pictures, they got used to it. "Hey, you two," Yongsun called Hyejin and Byul irritably. "Bring the twins, we'll check for Yohan backstage," Yongsun said as she started walking her way to the backstage as Byul, Wheein and Hyejin keep up behind her.
Byul carrying Yoonhee, Hyejin carrying Yoonah and Wheein carrying Byul and Hyejin's bag and purse.
"Since when she started treating us like literal slaves?" Byul asked as the kids enjoy being carried as ByulWheeSa half walking half running.
"KYS? Kim Yongsun Squad? Looks like Kim Yongsun Slave to me." Hyejin said and shakes her head.
"Exactly! I'm her literal boss!" Byul said and Wheein just smiles apologetically to her friends.
"She's so stressed this morning and she's getting some stage nerves because of Yohan's performance later. I apologize for Yong being Yong." Wheein said as she gave her kids a smile as they listen to how the adults talking about their Mommy.
Yongsun entered the room where participants are being pampered by their parents, all eyes went to their direction.
"Mommy!!!" A now 6 years old Yohan came running at Yong's direction. "You came so late! Where is Mom and the twins-" Yohan didn't even finish his words when she saw Byul and Hyejin with the twins and Wheein entered the room moments later. "Mom!" Yohan runs to Wheein's direction and hugged her. He raised his violin showing it to her mom and Wheein nodded. "Kiss it, you kiss this for goodluck," Yohan said and Wheein just sweats and smiled at her son. Wheein kissed the violin and then kissed Yohan's forehead.
They heard collective awww from people inside the green room. "You're going to be amazing out there, honey, I know it, for sure. Good luck, bud." Wheein said and Yohan hugged her.
"I love you, Mom." Yohan hugged Wheein and it felt like the little boy got a new source of confidence under Wheein's presence.
"Hey... what about Mommy?" Yongsun said and Yohan tiptoed as Yong leaned down and her son kissed her cheeks.
"I love you too, Mommy!" Yohan smiled shyly.
"I love you more, sweetie," Yongsun said giving her son a little pampering as she straightened his hair. "Let me take a picture of you. You go sit there-" Yongsun said and she looked at her slaves. "Get the twins sitting there too, please?"
"Yes, ma'am." Byul said sarcastically as she and Hyejin let the twins sit on the floor and Yohan posing with them.
"Okay, babies, smile for mommy." Yongsun leaning as she takes a picture, while ByulWheeSa stands behind her.
"Oh my god, they're so cute! I want one!" Byul said,
"I want to buy one as well-" Hyejin agreed
"They're human beings, not puppies you can buy when you want to-" Wheein said but stopped when Yong shushed them up.
"Wheein? How? How can you live with that monster?" Byul asked.
"I can hear you, Byul." Yongsun said as she approaches and kneels in front of her kids. Fixing their poses.
"She's a good mom... and the best wife," Wheein said smiling as she stares lovingly at her family. "What do you mean? Of course, I can live with her for so long. Because I wanted too." Wheein said as she fell in love with Yong deeper every single day.
"Okay, gross," Hyejin said and that made Byul and Wheein laugh. Yohan stood up from the chair and kissed the twins and Yong goodbye, he also hugs her Mama Byul and Mamam Hyejin before giving her mentor and her mom a nice little smile.
"You're gonna be amazing out there, little bud," Wheein said and Yohan beamed at her. "You make your mommy cry with pride, okay? She's a little stressed out this morning."
"I know mom, and I will." Yohan smiled and held tighter on his violin. "I'll make you all proud,"
"Believe me, honey, I already am," Wheein said and she pinned a musical note pin on his suit. "Happy Birthday, little bud."
"Thank you, Mom. You could've given this later at the party."
"Yeah, I could, but this will help boost your confidence later. Good luck." Wheein said and they finally made their way to their seats inside the auditorium. The twins were sitting on Byul and Hyejin's lap.
Yongsun finally relaxed when Wheein heard a long sigh from her wife. "Babe? Are you okay?"
Yongsun nodded and smiled. "I'm just nervous, that's all. This is his first-ever major recital, I just-I want it to go perfectly. He trained so hard-" Wheein squeezed Yongsun's hands as she caressed the back of Yong's hand with her thumb.
"Have faith in him, there's a Kim gene in his body, and for all I can remember, her mommy has been serving nothing but excellent work as an actress, I believe her son would be too. Don't you think, Ms. Kim?" Wheein said and Yongsun immediately blushed.
"Okay, that's reassuring," Yongsun said grabbing Wheein's hands and giving it a kiss. "How come you always say the right words? at the right time?"
"Because I'm with the right person who needs to be treated right, that's why," Wheein said and Yong squeezes her wife's hands a little too tightly.
"You're such a smooth talker, I hate it." Yonsgun said and she finally looks ahead to watch her son give a show.
"To open our show, let me welcome on stage, our first-grader violinist and his debut solo performance at this recital, so please join me in welcoming Jung Yo-han on stage! Please let's give him a big round of applause!" Everyone shouted and cheered, applause filled the room but none louder than his parents.
ALL of them.
From her Mama Byul and Mama Hyejin up to the most important girls in his life his moms and his sisters.
Wheein and Yongsun held at each other tight as they both try to fight back the tears, the kids grew up so fast and seeing them do something they're good at and excel is something a parent like Yong and Wheein will always be thankful for. The pride Wheein had for Yong on her first-ever Daesang award, the pride Yongsun had for Wheein on her first-ever solo concert...
The same memories filled Yong and Wheein's head.
The same sense of pride.
Yongsun looked over at Wheein and saw Wheein at her already looking back, the smile at each other. When Yongsun saw that amazing beaming smile she once again felt home. All Wheein needs to do is to smile, to put her in trance. The power of that cute smile though, ugh, nothing beats her wife's smile. Four pairs of eyes swelled as they watch Yohan play his violin on stage as two smaller pairs of eyes lit up seeing their brother on stage. Yohan, Kim Yongsun and Jung Wheein's Pride and Joy.
"We did that..." Wheein said as they listen for Yohan's performance to be over.
"Yes, we did."
"Do you still have regrets?" Wheein asked.
"None... The important thing is, we got here." Yongsun said and they shared a kiss as Yohan end his performance. The whole place erupted in cheer, as flashes of the camera started to go off as Yohan bowed at the center of the stage, too big for a small boy like him. "I'm still not allowing the kids to be involved in our world," Yongsun said as she keeps turning down TV stations asking to feature South Korea's Royalty kids.
"Same..." which Wheein agreed. Nope. Maybe not at this early age, but when the kids told them they want to, they will let them.
"Wow!" The MC came in as he wipes his sweat from watching on the side of the stage. "Can I also recognize Yohan's parents in the audience, have a lovely day to Mrs. Kim Yongsun and Mrs. Jung Wheein." the MC smiled ay Yohan and the boy smiled back. "Any words? For you parents who accompanied you today?"
There's a static sound from the mic when Yohand holds the microphone in his hands. "Well... Uhm...Mom Wheein and Mommy Yong, thank you, I don't know how I got this brain and these talents, all I know is that you have supported me even though I have failed several times before I got here, but it doesn't really matter and hopefully one day when we're so far removed from this time we can look back and remember that there were good times, small moments that we got to experience somewhere in between. All of the bad days and the good days it doesn't matter, as long as you got where you wanted to be. Small moments in between are important too because it's where we actually learn. Mom, thank you for being my mentor and my trainer, I learned to love and appreciate music because of you. To my mommy, I can't express how happy I am to be your son and I hope I make you proud, thank you for the love. I'll keep playing for the two of you. Thank you." Yohan ended his speech with a bow and they all clapped their hands as they watch him with pride. They all stood up to greet Yohan backstage and to actually celebrate his sixth birthday today.
Yongsun is now carrying Yoonhee while Yoonah walks with Wheein. Wheein felt a tug on her hands and she immediately looks down at her daughter.
"Yes, honey?"
"Mom... can we have ice cream later?" Yoonah asked enough for Yoonhee and Wheein and Hyejin to hear. Why her family is so damn crazy about ice creams?! Four adorable pairs of eyes looked at Yongsun's direction.
"Okay okay... after Yohan got all of his stuff we are leaving." Yoonhee, the one Yong is carrying wrapped her arms around her Mommy's neck and kissed her.
"Can this family get any cuter? Who can beat this?!" Byul asked and Hyejin smiled.
"Who knows? Like after all the shit that has gone down no one ever thought of this to be happening." Hyejin said as she gives a small talk with Byul.
"Well, I did, I kept the ring. Remember?" Byul said feeling like a smug as she loves to bring that up once in a while.
"Good for you, so your wife hasn't really open to... you know, have a family?" Hyejin asked and Byul kind of felt shocked about it.
"Dahee wants to have kids, but she doesn't like the idea of getting pregnant."
"What about you?"
"I haven't thought about that far off, but we may go for adoption. I mean, it's not bad, right?" Byul asked and Hyejin nods. "What about you? Is he going to propose or what?"
"You know, I really don't like the idea of marriage, I mean yes, I want it for Yong and Wheein, for you and Dahee, but for me? I really don't know?" Hyejin said and Byul looked at her.
"You're the straight one here and you don't want marriage?"
"It's not like I hate it? I just don't believe it? And I just want a partner and a carefree life, I have so many obligations already, which I love, okay? But having like a family and all that? I mean... It's not for me."
"Have you... talked to him about this?"
"Sure, we have a conversation here and there. He's traveling and he really doesn't have plans on settling down so I guess, for now, we are on the same page."
"But... what if you change your mind halfway through? and he didn't? or vice versa? What would happen?"
"Then let me worry about that when the time comes, as for now, all I want is some company and that's it. Being at work is kind of sad sometimes, especially you don't have someone to share some intimate moments with, but now, we are good, we are constantly talking."
"Fine-"
"Hey! We have some party to do! Hurry up! Chop chop!" Yongsun shouted as she slid off the van and Hyejin came in with them, Byul separated from the group as she needs to drive the car she brought with Hyejin earlier.
When they reached Wheein and Yong's house they saw two cars already parked outside. It's Wheein's parents and Yonghee's family. As soon as they went in, they greeted Yohan with gifts as they took care of the kids so that Wheein and Yong can start preparing something.
"Mommy! Where are you going? Where is the ice cream?" Yoonah asked and Yoonhee nodded as she pouts.
"Sweetie, we have to wait for Yohan. He needs to be the one to taste the ice cream first-" Yongsun said to her youngest.
"But Mommy-" Yoonhee is excited for the ice cream too.
"Yoonhee... Mommy said we have to wait for Yohan..." Wheein repeated what Yong just said to the other twin. Yohan came running to their direction from where he was playing with her cousin, Yonghee's daughter.
"Mom, it's okay, they can eat the ice cream. I won't get one unless I already ate something, the twins want it, let them have it." Yohan said as he smiled at the twins. This made Wheein and Yong smile and they nodded.
"Okay we are getting ice creams for the twins," Yong said and they started walking to the ice cream man they hired at the side of the garden. "Just two scoops-"
"Mommy, can I have more ice cream? Please? I'll brush my teeth! I promise!" Yoonah pleaded and Wheein just signals Yong to let the kids have it their way.
"Okay... okay..." Yongsun said and you can hear the exhaustion in her voice.
"Let me do it." Wheein grabs the cone from Yong's hands as she waited for the second one so she can give it to the twins at the same time.
"Maybe I want one too, it looks delicious!" Yohan said as he tiptoed on the ice cream cart. Wheein waited for the third cone as Yongsun just watch the kids all waiting for Wheein. Wheein kneeled and gave each kid the cone.
"Eat the ice cream first before you start playing, okay?" Wheein said and all three Jungs were now eating their ice cream as all five of them standing at the side of the garden.
"Thank you.." Yongsun said softly at Wheein and the singer just smiled at her.
"I love you so much you know..." Yongsun wants to get used to this but until now, Wheein's simple I love yous can always make her smile and blush like a teen.
"Why so sudden huh?" Yongsun asked as she studied Wheein's face.
"Dammit Babe... just say you love me too," Wheein whined as she pretends to stomp her feet, yes, this is where the twins get their attitude. Their whinny mom.
"Okay? I love you so much too baby... More than you'll ever know..." Yongsun said as she wraps her arms around Wheein's waist and rests her head on her wife's shoulders.
"I love you, mommy, I love you, mom... I love you both..." Yohan said, Yongsun and Wheein looked at him beaming with ice cream oh his hands.
"We love you kids.. All of you... so much." Yongsun said and Wheein squeezed her shoulders.
"I love you more!" Yoonah said and beamed a smile and Yoonhee looked at her.
"I love you more-er!!" Yoonhee shouted and this made Yohan laugh.
"Yoonhee its most... I love you most." Yohan corrected her little sister that made Yong and Wheein giggled as they watch the kids.
"I love you most!!!" Yoonhee shouted at the top of her lungs after Yohan corrected her, she shouted those words confidently.
"I love you MOSTEST!!!" Yoonah shouted as Yong and Wheein together with Yohan end up laughing at the twins. Yohan's standing in between the twins as he giggled while shaking his head.
"No! I do!" Yoonhee said.
"No! I do more!" Yoonah replied
"I do most!!!" Yoonhee said and the fight goes on and on.
"These kids will be the death of me..." Wheein said as she giggled with Yong just watching the kids fight.
"Then we will die happy..." Yongsun said and Wheein nodded, Yongsun finally stood up straight and faces Wheein. "Shall we go inside and take the foods out in the oven?"
"We shall." Wheein smiled and as soon as they left, their family members immediately took one of the twins as Yohan played with his cousin.
Yongsun and Wheein were preparing in the kitchen, well, mainly Yongsun as Wheein lend a hand and just let Yong do her thing in the kitchen.
"How come you're so good at everything?" Wheein asked as she stares at Yong concentrating on Yohan's cake.
"I was born like this, I have no idea, babe," Yongsun said and Wheein shakes her head.
"Right... What exactly are you doing? That's taking up so much time." Wheein said and she peeks on the cake, "That looks good to me already."
"Just some tiny detail... and... I'm done! Yes!"
"Oh wow! That looks so good, baby! He's gonna like it!" Wheein said as she stares at the cake in awe. "Wait let me get our present-"
"And the candles! It's in his room!" Yongsun said as she and Wheein excitedly made their way inside his room and saw how neat Yohan is, he got that from Yong, a hundred percent.
"Wait... What is-" Wheein pulled the card and three polaroids slide out of the card.
Yongsun crept behind Wheein and peek over her shoulders, "There's something written at the back-" Wheein flipped her polaroid and there are things written in the back. "Read it-"
"Mom... Oh god-" Wheein stopped this is gonna make her emotional. Yongsun sits on the carpeted bedroom floor as she snatched the polaroid from Wheein's hands.
"Mom, I always say proudly at my classmates who are my parents, because I am so proud of you and Mommy as much as how proud of you are to me. I asked Mama Hyejin to print this out for me and I want to give this to you on valentine's-"
"Shit, it's just January-"
"We'll pretend we haven't read it yet, shhh!" Yongsun said as she continued reading. "Thank you for introducing me with music, mom, you know I got sad when the twins came because I wasn't the baby anymore, but playing violin helps me get even closer to you, that's why I like it so much, I love you so much, Mom and thank you for taking care of Mommy." and then a heart with ink smudged written at the end.
"He's such a sweet kid," Wheein said as she wipes her tears, she picked up Yong's photo and flipped it. "Mommy..." Wheein started and Yong scoots closer to Wheein so her head is resting on Wheein's shoulders as her wife reads the message. "Mommy, I hope you don't like it sometimes when I hang out with mom more-wait... you don't?" Yongsun just shrugged and Wheein rolled her eyes as she continues. "But you know, Mom and I always talk things about you a looooot of stuff about you, maybe because both of us loves you so much-" Wheein felt Yong removed her head from her shoulders so she stopped.
"What is he talking about?"
"Maybe if you let me finish, you'll know, how's that sound, Ms. Kim?" Wheein asked and Yong just slaps her arms and leaned to Wheein's shoulders again. "-maybe because we both of us loves you so much we can't stop talking about you. Mom told me that I am the only little prince in this house so I don't need to get jealous of the twins, but I told her I don't want to be a little prince, I want to be a knight, and Mom told me she's a knight too, because she's protecting the Queen, maybe we are two knights now, we will protect you, mommy, because mom told me we will get hungry if we don't protect you. I love you so much, Mommy and you cook good food, that's why I love you more!" Wheein stopped as she giggled and Yong is ugly sobbing on her side. "Why are you crying then? Don't you like it?"
"Why are you talking to him like that behind my back?"
"Because I know you'll cry if you know!" Wheein said as she envelops her wife in a hug. "You've done so much for us, Yong. We can see that, all of us." Wheein said and Yong just wipes the tears in her eyes as she looked at Wheein, they are still sitting down on Yohan's bedroom floor. "I love you so much, Yong, never a day passed by that I never continuously fall in love with you. I love you more today than yesterday, and I'm pretty sure I'll love you more tomorrow."
"You sound stupid."
"If you’re not willing to sound stupid, you’re not worthy of falling in love," Wheein said and Yongsun smiled at her. "Love doesn't make things nice, it ruins everything. It breaks your heart. It makes things a mess. We aren't here to make things perfect. The snowflakes are perfect. The stars are perfect. Not us. We are here to ruin ourselves and to break our hearts and love the wrong people and die. The storybooks are bullshit. That's what I thought when I lost you, I blame myself every day that I did I let go so easily, but I found my way back into loving you and I believe that storybooks are true, because this?" Wheein said as she motioned between her and Yong. "If someone told this story to me I wouldn't have believe it, because it's impossible, it just can't, but it happened to me, it happened to you, it happened to us, yes, none of us are perfect, but we complete each other and that's what matters."
"Wheein, baby-"
"I dont want you to worry so much, about how you can make a perfect family, I've seen how stressed you are, I'm gonna tell you now, Yong, no, you are not gonna be like your parents, if that's the thing that scares you, the things that happened to you is not going to happen to the kids, because you're the best wife that I could ever ask for and the best mommy our kids needed, you've done so much, Yong, please? Enjoy this life with us, stop worrying about things that are not gonna happen. Can you do that for me and our kids?" Yong nodded, she didn't know that Wheein noticed that she's trying hard, so hard, maybe Wheein's right... Of course, she is right.
"...maybe you're not such a pain in the ass anymore huh?"
"Even a pain in the ass needs someone to take care of them, thank you for doing that. We'll do this together from now on okay? Stop worrying so much."
"Okay..." Yongsun said and Wheein leaned closer to her as they share a kiss.
"I love you, Yong." Wheein said and Yongsun nods.
"I love you too, Jung Wheein..." Yongsun replied and when Wheein was about to stand up Yong stopped her.
"Babe, we are not reading the letter for the twins-"
"No, I didn't mean about that," Yongsun said and Wheein helps her stand up.
"Then what is it?"
"After everything... Do you regret anything that happened? You asked me earlier, I wanted to ask you the same thing," Yongsun said and Wheein smiled at her and caressed her cheeks.
"No, if those things didn't happen our story would've been boring. I like this more, we are tested by fate but brought back by destiny together. Isn't that more exciting?" Wheein asked and Yongsun just nods. "Can we continue this story now?"
"Yes, okay."
"Let's start with going out there and celebrate our son's birthday."
"Good idea," Yongsun said as she grabs Wheein's hands and walk with her back to the kitchen and surprise their son with the presents he deserves.
They celebrated the birthday with closest friends and relatives at during the afternoon but continued hanging out with Byul and Hyejin after the kid's party. Yes, having an after-party is a Kim Yongsun Squad/Slaves tradition.
They drink all night as they recall how much everyone is a vital part of this friendship, they can't just simply exist without the other. Though this story is about Yong and Wheein, Byul and Hyejin became such a big part of their lives as well, without Byul, do you think Yong and Wheein would've met? without Hyejin, do you think Wheein and Yong will set themselves up for a second chance?
A friend is someone who understands your past, believes in your future, and accepts you just the way you are. Can you literally do nothing with the other person? Can you enjoy those moments of life that are utterly simple? They give color to your lives, treasure them, as they treasure you back. You don't know when you might need them in the future, we may all take different paths in life, but no matter where we go, we take a little of each other everywhere. When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief or heartbreak, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares.
This story might be about love between Kim Yongsun and Jung Wheein, but this is also a story about the friendship between Moon Byulyi and Kim Yongsun, Ahn Hyejin and Jung Wheein, and how Byul started to care for Wheein, and how Hyejin saves Yongsun a lot of times. Remember their love, and remember their friendship.
-THE END-
AN: That was something huh? Can you at least read this note for me? Thank you.
First of all, I enjoyed writing this more than I imagined when I started writing this. Secondly, I've been through a heartbreak as I write this, you can say I may have used this as an outlet of words I can not express in real life, this helps me too. Lastly, I have met amazing people through this fic I'm so thankful I could talk to you all. Thank you.
So... I have a new multi-chapter fic getting ready (I'm plotting everything before I start writing so, please be patient) but as some of you will be waiting for it, I made a one-shot compilation book(?) where I will be uploading one-shots until I start my new fic. So, I'll see you there next week as I upload my first one-shot. Thank you all so much for the support! I hope to see you all back for that next fic! Bye, everyone!
