Chaeyoung : "I love your mother"

Aiden : "My best friend to loves me, he says I'm like a brother to him. Mom and you are best friends. Right?"

Chaeyoung : "Actually, I love your mother--"

Chaeyoung was interrupted by Mina.

Mina : "We love each other, like a father and mother"

For the first time he lift his head and looked at Mina and chaeyoung.

Aiden : "NO!"

Mina : "Aiden baby listen"

Aiden : "No, she is not my father. Only my father can love my mom"

Mina : "Ed, baby. Your father don't love your mother. She loves me more than anything. Trust me"

Aiden : "No, I will not! I don't want you to love her. And I don't want you to love her"

Chaeyoung : "Aiden, try to listen to us, please"

Aiden : "No! And I hate you. I hate you for loving my mother and making her love you. You are not my father, I will never accept you as one"

He threw his ice cream and started to run towards their resort until he bumped to a particular person after few steps.

Aiden : "Aunt"

Nayeon hugged the small frame and patted his back, making him calm. The boy is indeed in pain, confusion, and everything else a little boy can feel.

Nayeon : "Aiden... Do you want to eat chocolate?"

He shook his head.

Nayeon : "How about a pizza?"

He again shook his head.

Nayeon : "How about watching cartoon"

He wiped his tears and nodded, without smile.

Nayeon : "Aeri, take your friend to your mom"

She hold the older boy's hand and started running towards the resort while pulling him.

Mina and Chaeyoung who was standing just few steps away from Nayeon watched everything.

Nayeon : "You told him?"

She started coming close to Mina and chaeyoung.

Nayeon was here to stroll with her oldest child a little. But there she found Aiden running and bumping into her.

Mina : "He has the right"

Nayeon pressed her lips and smiled.

Chaeyoung : "We took the right step. Right?"

Nayeon : "You did. But Mina, Chaeyoung, he is a kid. Just a seven years old kid. You should have tried talking with him a little later. Yes it is a right decision to tell him, but yes again cause it wasn't the right time to tell him"

Mina : "What should we do now?"

Nayeon : "Give him time. Mina, set things like it's possible to have two mothers in his head. He is spending his time with his friends whose parents are of opposite gender. Because of that his thinking is only those people will be happy who have a dad and a mom."

Chaeyoung : "As soon as he will approve our relation we will move to another country. Where he couldn't be bullied for this thing"

Nayeon : "That's the best decision Chaeyoung. That's why we decided our kids to be homeschooled, that's why Tzuyu and Sana decided to have their kids homeschooled. Just take care of that little fragile soul."

Chaeyoung : "We will"

Nayeon smiled and nodded.

Nayeon : "Mina, you can take Aiden to your room"

With an okay Mina and chaeyoung started to leave towards the resort but Nayeon called chaeyoung back.

Nayeon : "Chaeyoung, I need to tell you something"

Chaeyoung looked at Mina, and with a smile Mina started moving forward.

Chaeyoung : "Ney?"

Nayeon : "If you want to have a safe relation, then first, name the relation"

Chaeyoung : "I really want to unnie. But everything happened within blink of an eye today only."

Nayeon : "Its fine. But tomorrow, we all are going to tracking. The scenery from the top of the hill is amazing, romantic, especially the sunset. If you want you can try your luck there"

Chaeyoung smiled but soon her smile converted into a frowning one.

Chaeyoung : "I want a ring at least"

Nayeon : "We will be leaving for tracking around five in the evening, we will have a whole day. Let's find a beautiful ring for your to be girlfriend."

For the first time Chaeyoung blushed and nodded.

Chaeyoung : "But... what about Aiden"

Nayeon : "Don't worry, he is a kid and everything will be fine soon"

Chaeyoung entered the room, finding Mina and Aiden laying beside each other, Mina gently tapping his chest while his eyes are wide awake and open.

Chaeyoung slide her body beside Mina making Mina sleep in middle of Aiden and her.

Aiden : "Go away"
