"Oh my—" Jeongin placed a hand on her forehead. "No way Lord makes men like this anymore." She scoffed. "You've never been with a girl— well, a girl, boy— you've never been with anyone, have you?" The girl asked, leaning her back against the bookshelf.

"Sam is so cool," Chan said proudly, and Yongbok glared, not really accepting it. "Look how fast he gets the answers. He's so smart and a genius, and he's so cool."
"No, no," Yongbok shook her head, puffing her cheeks out. "Channie is the best."
Yongbok threw a fierce glare toward Sam, while the boy smiled awkwardly, not really understanding why the girl was glaring at him.

Summary
"What happened, princess? Why did you hurt him?" Hyunjin asks. Yongbok blinked a few times and looked at Chan as the boy stepped forward.
"He was teasing Bokkie; he was mean to us," Chan answered, a protective hand linked with his sister's tensed one. "He took Yongbokkie's coloring set; I just tried to get it back, and he twisted my arm."
"See?" Minhee snapped. "My child did nothing wrong. This boy tried to steal her things, even hurt my boy, and I think that's exactly how we deal with bullies."
The teacher sighed as Yongbok turned to her. "Told him to leave Channie and Bokkie alone. He hurt Bokkie's brother. Made Bokkie mad. No one hurts Bokkie's family."
"That's my girl," said Minhee proudly, earning a kick on her feet under the table from Hyunjin.

"Yes, he is." Chan's face lit up as he nodded. "Falling in love is not a decision; it's destiny."

"What happened?" Asked Chan, who partly accepted his fate, frowning at Yongbok's sad face.
"Oh no!" Yongbok covered her mouth with both of her palms, the microphone falling on her lap with a soft thud.
"What happened? Are you alright? Are you hurt? Does your stomach hurt, Bokkie? Are you in pain? What—"
"Bokkie forgot!" The girl gasped. "Bokkie don't know the song anymore. Bokkie forgot the lines." She said, and Chan blinked, lost. Then the realization came in, and he let out a sigh of relief.
Maybe the Gods are on his side tonight.

"Argh... shut up!"
"Move... let me take a closer look," Seungmin said, ignoring the woman's whines and trying to step ahead, only to get pulled back by Hyunjin.
Hyunjin groaned. "Keep it low. Argh... you're no help." She whined and hid her face with her palm, then turned fully to face her brother-in-law, freezing upon seeing Jisung across the hall.
She smiled awkwardly and tapped Seungmin on the shoulder, her eyes dancing to point at her husband.
Or,
The dinner went well; now the kids are planning their future, teens are in love and the adults are playing Sherlock Holmes.

Summary
"Uncle Han!" Yongbok happily called, coming forward to hug his legs and then she looked up, tugging at his pants, asking to be lifted up.
Jisung reached down and lifted her up, the girl wrapping her tiny arms around the man's neck to hug him. "Welcome home uncle Han."
It would be a lie if I say Jisung hadn't melted at the girl's voice.
"Look who it is..." Jisung cooed. "My favorite princess." He says and Yongbok narrowed her eyes, the adults finding it cute.
"Uncle lie," said Yongbok. "Bokkie knows Auntie Honey is uncle's favorite princess." Jisung blinked, and slowly a soft smile made its way across his lips, Yongbok giggling happily.
Or,
Yongbok's parents leave her in the care of Hyunjin and Jisung, going out of town to attend a friend's wedding. Needless to say, Jisung's desire to be a girl dad is very much alive.

"I'm so stupid. So careless." Whined Minhee, gripping onto her hair. "How could I be so careless Min... I- I promised I'll keep it forever."
Seungmin sat beside her and lifted her face up, looking into her eyes. "It's alright Lina... it's okay to- it's natural to lose things. It's okay..." he assured, but nothing reached the woman.
"It was with me while we danced, while we were back in here..." she tried to remember. "Min it's important to me."
"You're more important to me. You know that right?" Seungmin sighed, taking the woman's hand into his, while Minhee forced herself to hum and nod. "I can't just sit back and watch you panic over losing something I gave you."
Or,
On their way back from the wedding, Minhee realizes she lost the pendant Seungmin gifted her on their first date. This causes her to panic, and Seungmin is not a husband who will sit back and watch his wife be consumed by guilt.

"Why papa?" Asked the girl, tugging at Seungmin's shirt. "Why get a tattoo?"
Seungmin took in a breath. "Well... they hold memories." He began, pinching the tip of his nose. "To express themselves, to remember something dear to them.... mostly to make them look cool."
Yongbok's eyes went wide at that. She blinked, mouth parting open.
Cool. Cool. Cool.
So tattoos are one easy way to make one look cool.

“Binnie…” The girl calls, stomping on the floor. “When one says welcome home, you have to say thank you.”
Changbin blinked. “Well… yeah… ahm… thank you for inviting us to your ahm…” Changbin looked around the little girl’s playroom, the one he’s familiar with since Yongbok started walking, and cleared his throat. “to your house.”
“You think we’ll fit in?” Jeongin asks and scratched her head. “It’s kind of small for the four of us.” She doubts since she hasn’t seen the insides.
“No.” Yongbok shook her head. “Bokkie’s house is big. Come in, Auntie Innie.” Yongbok assures with a sunny smile and waved her hand, once, as a gesture of asking them to get inside.
Or,

Jisung cleared his throat. "You just started painting. Go on and don't worry about it; enjoy your time. Let me handle this."
"Handle what, Sung?"
"I—ahm..." Jisung wasn't a strong man. He glanced down and gulped, feeling bad for keeping everything a secret.
"Is everything okay, Sung?" Hyunjin asked again. "You're not hiding something from me... right?"
"No—no, honey..." Jisung tried to smile genuinely. "Have I ever kept a secret from you?" He asked back, and Hyunjin shook her head, still not convinced. "I'm just meeting him, and he asked for help with some work. It's business stuff; you'll be bored."
"I'll stay with Lina—"
"She's out of town!"
"Really?"
"Yup."

"I promise you, Hyunjin, it's you, and it'll always be you. I'll do anything in my power and beyond to bring you all the happiness in this world." His eyes were slightly red, but he was smiling.
"So... my honey, are you willing to be mine forever? To spend the rest of your life with this loser in love?"
Hyunjin laughed, then smiled wide, her face red all over. "Yes. Yes, I do." She repeated what she said ten years ago.

"No wonder why men of our family are head over heels for their wives. We're that irresistible."
"Agree... Agreed," Hyunjin hummed, a long one, while dreamingly staring at her husband. Minhee squeaked, letting go of the woman to launch herself on her husband.
"You heard that, Min? You... and you-" she pointed a finger towards Jisung, who looks amused. "-you both go make merits... light up some candles and thank all the powers above 'cause- 'cause these ten out of ten women are yours."
Jisung chuckled at his sister-in-law's words while Hyunjin circled her arm around her husband.

"Channie... be princess Bokkie's knight." Said the girl excitedly and Chan pouts.
"But I wanna be a prince." Chan said and Yongbok thought as she held the boy's hand.
"Be Bokkie's knight. Want Channie." Yongbok tried again while Chan tried to break free. She never said the word 'please', but her eyes did the work.
"Why?" asked Chan with a hint of sadness. He pouted, whining. "I wanna be a royal too. Why are you making me your knight?"
"Because Bokkie trust Channie," said the girl, looking at him hopefully. "Papa said knight must be someone you trust the most. Bokkie knows Channie will prote- protect her. Bokkie trusts Channie so much."
Oh!
Or,
While Jisung and Hyunjin left for their second honeymoon, Chan and Changbin stayed at their uncle's place.

"I should've been a little more careful. I'm such a bad partner."
"It's not your fault, Sung," said Hyunjin. "I'm alright. I'm fine."
Jisung sniffled, shaking his head. "Yeah, yeah you're alright but I left you—unintentionally, accidental—but—but I left you alone in an unfamiliar place—God I'm such a—"

"You two enjoy your time, I don't wanna be a third wheel," Seonghwa teased, smiling wide. "I hope we get to meet again."
I hope not. Jisung wanted to say, but he kept his mouth shut because Hyunjin was having so much fun talking to him.
Jealousy wasn't something Jisung thought he would have to deal with in his fifteen years of relationship with Hyunjin. He was cool with anything and everything... but Seonghwa, it didn't sit well with the man.
"Let's go, honey?" Jisung's hand around the woman tightened to pull her closer, and Hyunjin couldn't help but snicker internally.
