Chapter 63 - Ryujin's birthday (2019)

| Time Lapse | 4 days later

POV | Yeji
Today was Ryujin's birthday. I felt horrible for how I acted the other day.. I really was a slut and I should have never took the ring off. I have so much regret for that. But today was her special day. This had been her second birthday since we've been together. I kissed Ryujin, "Morning mommy.." Ryujin grumbled, pulling the blanket over her face, "Let me sleep.." I whispered in her ear, "But it's your special day.." Ryujin gasped, getting up, "Its my birthday?!" I showed her my phone. "April 17th.. right?" Ryujin showed her whisker dimples. I kissed her cheeks, "Happy birthday Ryujin." Kwan and Jihoon came in hugging her. "Happy birthday mommy!" Ryujin hugged us all, "Thank you guys.. I love you so much." She gave them kisses on their cheeks and then gave me a kiss on the lips. I smiled, looking at the kids since they wanted to do something. They handed Ryujin a card. Ryujin grinned, "Aww.. you shouldn't have.." Kwan hovered over the card, "Reasons why we love you. 1, you give the best hugs sorry Mama.. 2, you have the cutest dimples in the world.. 3, you're fun and cooler than mama-" I fake cried, Ryujin chuckled, rubbing my shoulder. I pouted, letting Kwan continue. "4, you have the best style. 5, you have the best hair. 6, you have are the best dancer. 7, you are the nicest to us." I looked down, pouting again. "Aye be nice to Mama.." Ryujin scratched my chin like a cat. I nuzzled my chin against her hand, "Thank you babe." Kwan said, "I told you not to put that in Jihoon.." That little brat. He only cares about Ryujin. I huffed, backhugging Ryujin. "Alright.. thank you guys but be nicer to her okay?" They nodded, getting up. I started to fake cry again. Ryujin chuckled, "Hah! They only care about me!" I had the biggest pout. "But I only care about you." She placed kisses all over me. I hugged her, "I made you breakfast.. come with me.." Ryujin bit her lip. "What?" I looked at her up and down. "Well you're not really good at cooking so.." I scoffed, "You all are just rude to me today.." Ryujin kissed my cheek, "I'm just kidding baby." I smacked her ass, walking out with her to the kitchen. "So last time you made pancakes it didn't go so well so I made them for you.." I placed a plate of heart shaped chocolate chip pancakes that had syrup on them that spelled out, "I love you." Ryujin was shocked. "Come here.." She held out her arms. I wrapped my arms around her neck, "I love you.." We started to kiss passionately. "Ewwww.." I heard Jihoon's voice. Ryujin opened her eyes, chuckling a bit. "I love you too baby." I smiled, sitting next to her. Chaeryeong, Yuna, and Lia came in. "Ryujin! I told you to wash the dishes! It's your turn!" Lia yelled, coming in. "Lia! Do you not know what today is?!" Ryujin held my hand on her lap. "I do! It's another shitty Wednesday!" I stood up, "It is my fiancée's birthday Lia." I heard Kwan mumble to Jihoon. "A fiancée is what they call each other we they're engaged.. so before they're married." Jihoon scoffed, "I'm not dumb Kwan." I yelled, "Do not talk to your sister that way!" Lia licked her lips, "Fine. Yuna you do it." Yuna pouted, "But I just did the dishes last week for Ryeji." Ryujin huffed, "Yuna, wash the fucking dishes. Yeji, quit yelling at people and sit your ass down. Lia, drop the fucking attitude. Chaeryeong, stop staring at me... it's making me feel weird. Kwan, just be quiet. Jihoon, don't act like that. Now all of you be quiet and let me enjoy my day. This is the only day I get for myself. I have to take care of everyone here because someone is too stubborn to do it." She pointed to me. I grumbled. "Huh.. what'd she say?" Chaeryeong shook real fast. We all glared at her. "Staring." She scratched her head, "Sorry.." Ryujin took a bite of her pancakes, "I don't wanna hear any complaining or anything. Yeji." She looked at me. "What did I do now? Am I bothering YOUR special day?" Ryujin growled, "I just wanted you to get me a fork idiot." Lia said, "I wouldn't call your fiancée an idiot. She's about to blow." I stomped, "I am not!" Ryujin chuckled, "She's just jealous the kids like me better than her." I slung the fork across the counter, "Here's your fucking fork." I walked off, going into the bathroom to cool down. I can't believe she thinks she can get everything on her birthday. She's the fucking idiot.

I sighed, eating the pancakes. Chaeryeong was staring at the table. She scares me. Like why the fuck does she zone out every second? I mean I used to but man.. I wonder what's going on in her mind. "Take an easy on the cuss words.." Kwan said. "Don't make her mad." Chaeryeong finally said something. "Lia.. what are you doing?" Yuna asked Lia. "I'm doing something." Lia was looking everywhere in the cabinets. "What are you looking for?" Lia sighed, "It's nothing Yuna.. stay out of it." Yuna scoffed, putting the last dish away. "So she only made breakfast for you?" Yeji yelled from the bathroom, "There's more pancakes on the counter by the fridge!" They all rushed to the plate, grabbing their own, and ate them as fast as they could. I made a disgusted face, "You're gonna choke." Chaeryeong ate the pancakes, "Damn I've never been so hungry before.." Yeji came out of the bathroom, still wiping her hands, and froze when saw the empty plates. "So you didn't leave any for me?" I gave her my last pancake, "Here honey." Yeji declined, "No.. I made you that.. I-I'll just.. I'll-" I split it in half, feeding it to her, "No honey you deserve to eat something.." Yeji sat next to me once again. "Here have the whole thing.." I gave her my plate. She wrapped her arm around my thigh, "Thanks.." Jihoon threw his plate, "I'm still hungryyyyyyy." I shook my head, "Shin Jihoon! You clean that up right now!" He huffed, grabbing the crumbs off the floor. "And you are not getting any more. You got 3. And the person who made them got 1." I heard Yeji's stomach growl. She was hungry. Poor thing. I rubbed her waist, whispering into her ear, "I left some chocolate under the bed.." Yeji raised her eyebrows, "From the other day?" I nodded, winking, "I thought the kids would eat it so I saved some for you." Yeji kissed my cheek, going to the bedroom. "Now you're gonna apologize to her alright?" I stood up, putting my plate in sink. "Yah! I just did the dishes.." Yuna was mad. "Just shut up I'll do them tomorrow." Jihoon grumbled, "I'm not apologizing to anyone." Chaeryeong licked her lips, "I watch where you're going there kid.." I took a deep breath, "You are apologizing. You just made me her feel really bad about not being the best mom and now you ate all of the pancakes she spent all morning making. She literally got up at 5. Go apologize right now." Jihoon stood up, "I don't need to." I twitched my eye, "Shin Jihoon. I am this close to-" I was holding up a pinch and froze when the door opened. "Ah good morning Ryujin! Happy birthday!" JYP PD came inside. I blinked, putting my hands down, and standing up straight. "Thank you sir." Chaeryeong stood behind the kids, I could hear her say, "Go up to your rooms." JYP PD looked at the kids, "You're cousins are still here.. what a nice surprise.. hi I'm your cousin's boss!" He held out his hand. Kwan shook it, "H-hello.." Jihoon walked off without saying anything. So rude. "I'm sorry for him.." JYP PD shook his head, "It's okay Ryujin.. we're inviting you down to a birthday party, will you be able to go?" I nodded, "Yes sir. Is this being filmed?" He nodded, "Yes it will be filmed. Wear something appropriate." JYP PD walked out. "That brat!" I ran up to their room. Jihoon was on his iPad. "Shin Jihoon! That was rude you-" He threw one of his toys at my face. Yeji gasped, coming in, "That is enough! You do not hurt mommy!" She picked up the toy, "Timeout!" Jihoon groaned, going to the closet. "Honey are you okay?" Yeji held my arm. "He didn't take JYP PD's hand or say anything." She gasped, "That disrespectful brat." I held the place the toy hit me. "Damn that hurt.." Yeji nuzzled her head against mine, "Aww.." I sighed, looking over at the closet door, "What do you think is bothering him?" Yeji thought for a second, "Well they're on spring break.. I just don't know.." I looked at her lips. She had chocolate all over them, I cleaned them up with my tongue. "W-what?" Yeji looked at me. "Chocolate." She nodded, looking down at the ground, "Do we.. ask him what's going on?" I took another deep breath, "I-I guess.." I took her into the closet with me. Jihoon was sitting down. "Bub.. what's going on?" Jihoon stood up, "Is my timeout over?" Yeji shook her head, "Not until you tell us why you threw a toy at mommy, why you didn't shake JYP PD's hand, and why you didn't want to apologize to me.." Jihoon huffed, "I'm not telling you that." I scoffed, "Do you just want her to leave and you say it to me?" He shook his head, "You'll tell her. You always tell her everything." I bent down, "Because when you're in a relationship, trust is key.. you can't lie to your lover. I've already done it too many times when our relationship was still beginning." Yeji rubbed my back, and bent down with me. "Just tell us Jihoon.. I mean we won't hurt you or anything.." Jihoon looked down, "I saw your boss abusing Kwan." Our mouths were wide, we looked straight at each other. I quickly picked her up, running out of the room and to Kwan. "Honey.. oh god.. what happened? Tell us everything.." Yeji got off of me. Kwan bursted into tears, holding us tight. "Oh my girl.." Yeji played with her hair while I rubbed her shoulders. "What happened?" Lia came out of the kitchen. "Hello?!" Yuna said as she walked past Lia. I shook my head, putting a slice in my neck, and mouthed, "I'll tell you later." Yeji mumbled, "That motherfucking-" I covered her mouth, continuing to rub Kwan's shoulders. "H-he hit me.." Kwan finally said something. "Why honey?" I held my cool. "Because.. he.. found out that you adopted us.. but only found out that mama adopted us not you.." Yeji sighed in relief, "He didn't touch you anywhere?" Kwan shook her head. "Thank the lord.. I would've killed him with my bare hands if he tried to touch my child." I looked at her, "But now he knows.. and I'm confused why he even hit you.. that dumb piece of shit hit my child.. I'm gonna-" Yeji interrupted, "Go up to your room." Kwan nodded, running upstairs. I flew into the kitchen, slamming shit around, "Damnit!" Yeji held my waist, "No Ryujin.. we can't say anything about this.. we can't.. we're gonna have to go with the cousin thing and maybe say that your uhm uncle died so we had to take care of them.." I grumbled, "But he only found out you adopted them Yeji, I'm supposed to be their fucking cousin! He could find out that we're engaged Yeji!"
