"Daddy!" Little Hae cries out when she sees her father in the morning. She runs to him. "You came early today."
"I stayed in your uncle's room." Si An picks her up in his arms and gives her a kiss on her cheek. She does the same to him. The two share a smile before he asks, "Little Hae, want to skip school today?"
"I want to see Hyun." She shakes her head. "I can't go to his house to play because you wouldn't let me."
"But you see him every day." He chuckles. "You told me that you won't like him more than me."
"I also see you every day, Daddy." Little Hae pouts.
"She likes seeing Hyun more," Kyuri grumbles as she comes out. Her hair is a tangled mess. By now, Kang Si An is used to see her like this. He wonders if she got up before him and fixed her appearance in the original timeline to avoid being seen like this by him. He grins to himself. He prefers it like this. "You are quite cool about it, Kang Si An."
"Wu Yixing is a good guy." He climbs down the stairs. "Can we stop them if we oppose? Accepting it is the only way."
Little Hae is clueless about Wu Yixing. She doesn't think much about it. She only wants to go to school and see her friend, Hyun.
"Right, Li Jun was close to Wu Yixing," Kyuri mutters with dissatisfaction. "Friend will advocate his friend."
"General Yu also wants the same. Don't be the evil mother who separates the pair." She hears him laugh and say. She rolls her eyes and stretches her arms. She is still sleepy. Lazily, she prepares breakfast as Kang Si An takes Little Hae to get freshen up.
Kyuri's parents come down and watch them preparing Little Hae for school. It's a familiar scene for them ever since Kyuri accepted Kang Si An in their lives. Seeing how Kang Si An and Kyuri speak more with their eyes and bodies than mouths, they can't help but smile.
"They are in sync with each other." Kyuri's mother says to Kyuri's father, "They don't even need to talk to each other."
Kyuri packs the lunch box and puts it down on the table. Kang Si An is feeding the breakfast to Little Hae.
"Go to sleep," Kang Si An tells her when he sees her yawning non-stop. "I will take Little Hae to school."
"Mn." Kyuri kisses Little Hae's head before saying, "Be good at school."
"Okay, Mommy." Little Hae promises without a second thought. She's always good.
Kyuri walks back to her room and drops to her bed. It doesn't take her seconds to fall deeper into sleep.
"Si An, did you have breakfast?" Kyuri's mother asks him. There was a time when she didn't like Kang Si An because he's the reason why Kyuri left. It's not the same now. The family is pretty used to seeing Kang Si An. He's pretty much integrated in their family.
Kang Si An manages to make Little Hae finish the milk. "Yes, I did. Kyuri made breakfast for me and Little Hae."
"She doesn't make any for me." Kyuri's father sighs. "My daughter likes pretty things more."
Slightly blushing because of Kyuri's father's words, Kang Si An just smiles and says nothing.
"I also like pretty things." Little Hae comments.
"You wake up later than she does." Kyuri's mother scowls at him. "She has to send Little Hae to school. You don't help at all."
"There's already someone else to help. Where I am needed? You don't wake up early either." Kyuri's father turns on the television. "Si An, I saw your latest drama. It wasn't bad."
"Thank you, Father." He takes Little Hae and her school bag. "I am leaving. It's almost time for her school."
Kang Si An rushes out with Little Hae and hurries to her school.
"Sometimes, I wonder if Kang Si An is the mother and Kyuri is the father." Kyuri's mother chuckles. In less than a year, their roles have switched."
"The boy is sly." Kyuri's father comments and sighs. "Our daughter isn't any less cunning."
"I liked Young Hwa though." Kyuri's mother puts down the food in front of them. "But seeing Kang Si An with Kyuri now, I feel as if there's no one better than him. I see him moving around Little Hae and Kyuri as they are his sun. Young Hwa is also happy with Yeon Seo."
Young Hwa visits them sometimes with Yeon Seo who is also expecting a child soon. The relationship between them is harmonious and yet strange.
"That's because they are his world." Kyuri's father changes the channel to the one where Kang Si An's new drama is airing. "I want to see how long they are going to act like this."
Kyuri's mother sighs. They can only wait and see.
