Sehun-So you are telling me your sisters are not just noble people?

Hayoung shook her head, grinning mischievously

Sehun-Okay. So what does Chorong do?
Hayoung-She has 3rd degree black belt in hapkido. She won three gold medals in National competition. She broke one of her opponent's leg during a fight
Sehun-Ouch! Next

Hayoung-Bomi is good at almost everything. She plays baseball and archery. Basically she has strong arms. Oh, she also has 3rd degree black belt in taekwondo
Sehun-Okay. Eunji?

Hayoung-She can do boxing
Sehun-Wow. I wonder how strong she can punch someone
Hayoung-Wanna try?
Sehun-No thanks

Hayoung-Well, you can see Namjoo is in charge in the kitchen. It is because she is familiar with blades. She can handle swords
Sehun-Interesting. What about you?
Hayoung-Me? I play Must Thai
Sehun-Oh dear, you serious?
Hayoung-I am
Sehun-I don't just fall for a girl

Hayoung laughed

Sehun-Oh, we forgot about Naeun
Hayoung-Well, Naeun. I can say that among us, she has the most secrets. I grew up with the rest. But Naeun, we found her at our doorsteps, hurt and bleeding with a baby in her womb
Sehun-So you saved them?

Hayoung nodded

Sehun-Where is her husband?
Hayoung-She never told
Sehun-Oh...

Sehun nodded, understood

Bomi-Hayoung, can you help me for a bit?!

Bomi shouted from inside

Hayoung-Oh, that's the call
Sehun-Go on. I might want to stay outside a little bit more
Hayoung-Of course. I'll call you when dinner is ready
Sehun-Alright

Hayoung strolled into the cottage, leaving Sehun who remained on the swing. His eyes clenched close as he inhaled deep breath and sighed

"Mama"

Sehun opened his eyes when he heard distant mumbles. He saw Lily walking barefoot in the yard. He called before she could go further

Sehun-Lily, where are you going?

Lily turned around, pouting

Lily-I want mama
Sehun-Your mama is not home. She went out with aunty Eunji. Come over here

Lily toddled towards Sehun. She spread her arms and he lifted Lily up onto his lap

Sehun-Mama will come home later okay?
Lily-Okay

Lily leant on Sehun's broad chest. She didn't have problem to get along with Sehun although he was a stranger

Lily-Mama. Papa

She sniffled

Sehun-Papa? Do you know where is your Papa Lily?

Lily slowly nodded. She lifted her small hand, pointing at the sky

Lily-There
Sehun-Oh, your papa lives in the cloud?

For a moment, Sehun thought Lily meant her father had passed away. But Lily shook her head

Lily-He lives in another realm
Sehun-Which one?
Lily-Hmm...

Sehun looked down at the little girl and she already had her eyes closed. He carried Lily inside and brought her to the bedroom. Sehun slowly placed Lily in her crib

Naeun-Sehun?
Sehun-Oh, hi Naeun
Naeun-Aigoo, why is she sleeping now when everyone is about to have dinner

Sehun chuckled

Sehun-The way you talk reminds me of my mom. Late mom, actually
Naeun-I'm sorry about that
Sehun-No, don't be

Naeun marched towards Lily. She covered her in a blanket, covering her exposed wrist

Sehun-I already saw that. The tattoo

Naeun was clearly flustered

Naeun-You did?

Sehun nodded

Sehun-Are you from Ingrith?
Naeun-No. I am a human, you can see. I'm from earth
Sehun-Then how could your daughter has the tattoo on her wrist? The tattoo that only Ingrith people have
Naeun-Her father.. is from Ingrith

Naeun looked away from Sehun. She walked to the window, looking out to the sky and sighed

Sehun-I'm sorry you have to go through all this. Because of the misunderstanding between my brother and a human, the Bifrost is closed to outsiders. And now Lily has to grow up without her biological father
Naeun-Misunderstanding?

Sehun nodded

Sehun-Four years ago, someone stole Ingrith's Lily, our sacred flower. Since then my brother had stopped trusting in human. But I always believe it was only misunderstanding, and I will clear it up. I promise, Lily will meet her father again
Naeun-Sehun, actually...

Knock! Knock!

Hayoung-Naeun, Sehun, the dinner is ready
Sehun-Oh, it's faster then I expected. I'm really hungry

Sehun walked up to Hayoung. She circled her hand around Sehun's arm

Hayoung-Aren't you coming Naeun?
Naeun-Yeah, after you

Tbc...
