...Flashback...

...Min-Jeong's Point of View...

A couple of months went by after we got married, when we were invited by a group of Jin's schoolmates for dinner since they couldn't make it to our secret wedding. Most of them got married years before us so some of them already had kids.

"So glad we got to see them before Bam Bam and his family fly back to Canada", I said as I was changing into pajamas.

Jin gave me a small smile and went into shower.

"Can you imagine, in just few years, we will be like them?" Jin stopped and looked at me, "What do you mean?"

"With kids", I responded as I playfully rolled my eyes.

"Probably, but not anytime soon. After today, with all the craziness, don't think I'd want to have kids anytime soon… or ever",Jin said in a matter of fact tone.

I was taken aback by his answer, but I just shrugged it off because I thought he was just tired from entertaining his friends' kids.

...End of flashback...

It was 10.00PM, and I was fiddling with my phone. Still hoping that Jin would somehow talk to me, but his status was just online. I decided to ask Yoongi if he could see me. I wanted Jungkook to tag along, but he's too much of a baby to handle this conversation. He'd just freak out, and we'd end up calming him down.

...Yoongi's Point of View...

I was about to go to sleep when I received a text from Min-Jeong, asking to meet up somewhere nearby her place.

When I was about to leave the next day, Jin asked where I was going but because I was still pissed at home he treated Min-Jeong, I just ignored his question.

"They asked about their father today", she calmly said while looking at the sky. I dropped my jaw when I heard what she said.

"What did you answer?"

"I did what any mother would.... I lied my ass off", she joked. She laughed at it but I could sense she was hurting.

"Min-Jeong, look at me", I said to make her pay attention to me.

"You have to tell him, Jeongi. As much as I hate what he is doing to you but he needs to know and Min-Ji and Mi-Suk deserve to have a father." Her eyes softened, her old nickname given to her by me slipped out of my lips

She took a long and deepko breath, "Even when their father didn't want them?" Min-Jeong stared into the distance for a few seconds before telling me the truth.

Ever since the dinner, Min-Jeong tried to bring up the topic of having kids in the future, but Jin never agreed to it. He'd always have new excuses each time. The time when she found out about her pregnancy, she cried for days before finally deciding not tell anyone else and ran off to South Carolina.

I was fuming with anger when I heard the story because I never heard such thing from Jin and I guess he never figured out that Min-Jeong left him for this among other things. He always thought it was solely because she couldn't handle how busy he got after debut.

I let Min-Jeong cried it out that night, she needed to give herself the chance to breathe after everything she unpacked about the past...
