How We Met

63

"I'm sorry, ma'am. Have we met?"

Roseanne asks, still smiling.

"We have" Mason speaks up. "When you were born"

"I don't understand..."

"It's okay" Clare says. "Maybe we can talk about it now"

"So, you gave me away?"

Roseanne asks as she holds tightly to Lili's arm.

"I'm sorry" Clare says with a hint of regret. "When Chaeyoung and you were born, dad and I had a serious financial issue. He had been thrown away from his work and I wasn't working so we knew we can't raise three kids at the moment. So, your current parents, my friends - they decided to take you in as their baby and in return, they'll give dad a new job. And ..."

"We tried to look for you.  But most of the people I met said you were already in America with your new parents. And we are very sorry Roseanne"

"Bubs" Lili kisses her cheek. "Are you okay?"

"I am" Roseanne mumbles before turning her head to face her birth parents again. "I mean, I'm not mad. Not at all I think? My parents told me about this long time ago and I don't think it matters to me if I wasn't born from them; especially my mom. Because I knew I came from their hearts, so yes. I'm alright"

"I'm so proud of you" Lili says as she kisses her wife.

"Wait a damn minute" Jennie frowns.

"So, this means I have another baby sister than Chaeyoung?"

"I think yeah?" Roseanne smiles. "You're my big sister?"

"FUCK, THIS IS NICE. AT LEAST I DON'T HAVE TO PUT UP WITH CHAEYOUNG'S BORING ASS ALL MY LIFE"

"Jennie" Chaeyoung glares. "Shut up!"

"Can I laugh?" Jisoo asks after a moment, looking confused like always.

"Why?"

Lisa asks.

"I mean, you guys practically marry each other's twins. Lisa and Chaeyoung while Lili stuck with her Roseanne. No offense, I wonder how can Park girls handle Manoban's asses?"

"It's a lot of work" Chaeyoung and Roseanne say at the same moment before both turn their heads to look in amazement.

"Oh, my! The twins' connection!"

"I know right? Omo, Chae this is so cool!"

"Hey, add Rosie inside our sister's group!"

"You guys have sister's group?" Lili says in disgust.

"Of course, Jennie rolls her eyes. "We are Park sisters"

"Ugh, I feel like puking"

A year later

Lisa whines as she throws a small pillow at her little sister. But Lili ignores her as she continues to plant kisses all over Bella's face.

"Where my little bunny?"

She coos as the baby laughs adorably, driving Lili more to the wall.

"Fuck, how can a tiny human like this makes me so happy?"

"Lili, you've been playing with her for some time now!"

Lisa points out. "Let me hold her!"

"Can't you see we are enjoying each other's company here, you stupid head?"

"Hey" Jisoo emerges from nowhere. "No cursing in front of my child"

The Korean comes closer as she snatches the baby away, sticking her tongue out at both of the attorneys.

"It's all your fault!"

Lisa folds her arms, pouting. "Why me? It's all your fault!"

"Not mine!"

"Yours!"

"Hey" Mason mumbles. "You guys okay?"

"Kind of" Lisa groans. "Anyway, do you see Chaeyoung, dad?"

"I think she's still in the garden with mom, Jennie and Rosie"

"Really?"

"Yeah"

"Oh, girls. Good luck" Mason smirks.

"For what?"

"Being moms. It'd not be easy, I swear but it'll all worth it"

Both Lisa and Lili nod. They know the man says the right thing. And they couldn't be more proud of their wives. Roseanne and Chaeyoung are currently pregnant and both the lawyers couldn't believe it at first, that their wives got pregnant at the same time.

"Yeah, dad. Thank you" Lili says. Before Lisa can say the same thing, Jennie runs inside, looking anxious.

"WHAT THE FUCK YOU GUYS ARE DOING HERE?"

She yells. Lisa and Lili look at her confusedly.

"Why?"

"For fuck's sake, your wives are about to give birth!"

"HOLY SHIT!"

Both of them screamed before frozen on the couch.

"I mean" Lisa says. "What do we do now?"

"I don't know" Lili says in panic. "What the heck?"

"MANOBAN!"

Clare walks in with a furious face. "COME COLLECT YOUR WIVES. THEY ARE ABOUT TO POP OUT MY GRANDDAUGHTERS!"

"SHIT!"

Lisa looks at her sister. "We can do this right?"

"I don't know? I'm scared"

"I mean, anxious. Hell, I don't know what I'm talking about"

"LISA!"

"LILI!"

Both sisters run to get their angry wives.

"It hurts" Chaeyoung cries as Lisa lifts her up. "YOU DID THIS TO ME"

"You weren't complaining back then"

"SHUT UP AND BRING ME TO THE HOSPITAL NOW!"

"Hey, Bubs" Lili consoles her wife. "I'm here, don't cry okay?"

"NEXT TIME YOU'RE GONNA BE THE ONE TO POp out THE KID!"

"Basic science, Bubs, I've a dick"

"SHUT UP DRIVE ME NOW, LILI OR I'M GONNA GIVE BIRTH TO YOUR GIRL IN THIS GARDEN!"

Lili and Lisa carry their wives to the car where Jennie has been waiting.

"For fuck's sake" she says. "I'll drive"

Fin.
