Chapter Text
“Choi Seungcheol who's that?” Jeonghan asked as he whispered into his omega ears. “Who… that's my friend Wonwoo.” Seungcheol answered with same low voice. Eyes not leaving Wonwoo figure who played with Chan at the playground. Joshua went to accompany Hansol to the toilet.
Jeonghan huffed and looked at Wonwoo with a glare. Seungcheol chuckled and remembered how does they met Wonwoo.

“Thank you mom for taking care of them.” Seungcheol said as he pick up Chan bag. “It's fine but pick up my call next time. I thought something happens to you.” Madam Choi sighed. Seungcheol smiled and walked to the front door where Chan latches to Jeonghan and Hansol asking Joshua to teach him guitar.
“I know it's not my business to ask but does Hansol parents–”
“We don't know his father and his mother left him. That's all I could tell you.” Seungcheol cut off his mother question and looked at her. “We will be fine. I will give him a happy life.” Seungcheol said confidently.
Madam rolled her eyes and smiled. “you sure do.”
“Cheol, we need to leave now.” Joshua said as he walked closer and took Chan bag from his husband's hand. “We will leave mother, thank you for hospitality and taking care of our kids.” Joshua said gently as he lower his head. Madam Choi chuckled and ruffles Joshua head. “I'm glad to help but next time text me if you need privacy with each other.” Madam Choi teased and Joshua ears went red.
“Y-yes.” Joshua stuttered and walked to the front door. Seungcheol smiled and kissed his mother cheeks. “Bye mom.”
“Bye, cheol.”

“Let's go to convenience store for a bit, I want ice cream.” Jeonghan said as he turned the wheel. Chan cheered happily while Hansol nodded as sat quietly on Seungcheol lap.
Jeonghan parked the car and turned off the engine while his husbands helped kids to get off from the car.
Joshua holding Chan hand and looked at Hansol expectantly but the boy ignored him and stay by Seungcheol legs. The omega noticed this and gestured Joshua to go into convenience store first.
Jeonghan locked the car door and looped his arms around Seungcheol’s. He looked down and saw Hansol silently gripped on Seungcheol trouser while frowning.
The alpha looked at his omega, the latter just shrugged and make the same gesture he make to Joshua. Jeonghan dramatically gasped as if betrayed but he went inside the convenience store.
Seungcheol squats on the ground and looked to Hansol eyes. “what’s wrong baby?”
“I thought you won't come back.” Hansol uttered, his eyebrows furrowed as he looked at the ground.
Seungcheol paused for a moment. He face shifted to concerned one. “Why I wouldn't come back?”
“You promise to play with us with grandma and grandpa after a week but you never came.” Hansol grunted. Seungcheol bite his lower lips as he recalled what happened less than 72 hours ago. His back still throbbed because of their activities.
How would he explain to a 8 years old about secondary gender?
“Your Appa and Dada was sick so I need to care for them. I'm sorry for not keeping my promises.” Seungcheol uttered as he clasped his hand with Hansol.
The boy frowned. “Appa and Dada was sick?”
Seungcheol nodded. “Yes,”
Hansol pouted. “I forgive you for now but promise should not be broken.” Seungcheol smiled, as he patted Hansol hair. “Yes, I won't break my promise.”
“You won't leave me right?”
Seungcheol heart dropped, he pulled Hansol into his embrace. “I won't and will never leave you. We are family now.” Seungcheol said as he rubbed Hansol back.
After a few moments, Seungcheol stood up and held Hansol hand. “Let's buy some ice cream.” Hansol nodded and smiled.
**********
“He thought we will leave him.” Seungcheol uttered in hushed tone as Jeonghan, Chan and Hansol choose their ice cream. Joshua and Seungcheol just watched them.
“Hansol?”
Seungcheol nodded. “It is scary to know no one wants you.” Joshua glanced at Seungcheol, his hand intertwined with Seungcheol one. “It is but he won't feel like that anymore. He has us now. You have us now.”
Seungcheol turned to Joshua with glistened eyes as the alpha squeezed his hand.
“Dada, you want chocolate or strawberry?” Chan asked. Joshua smiled at his son, he moved Seungcheol to be behind him so Chan won't see Seungcheol face right now
“I like vanilla.” He replied, Chan nodded as he looked at Seungcheol. “Why Eomma hiding?”
“He's a bit sleepy,” Joshua replied quickly.
“Eomma wants what flavor?” Chan asked eyes looking at Seungcheol figure.
“Chocolate is okay.” Joshua answered.
Chan looked at Joshua suspiciously before trotted back to Jeonghan.
Joshua feel his back get smacked. “This your fault to say those words and make me emotional.” Seungcheol mumbled.
Joshua chuckled. “I love you too.”

They walked out from the convenience store with few foods in hand, Hansol holding Joshua hand while Jeonghan holding Chan hand. Seungcheol followed them from behind with a grin.
“Seungcheol?”
The omega turned and his face lighted up. “Wonwoo?
