Chapter 101: From Just Us to All of Us

Start from the beginning
                                        

Then came Jiwon.

Tall, solid, soft-eyed-and Tae flew into his arms like he'd waited his whole life to do it.

"You're free, you idiot," Jiwon grinned.

Tae beamed like the sun itself had kissed him.

Jiwon hugged everyone like he meant it, then turned to me and Kookie.

"He talks about you nonstop," he said. "He's been through hell. But now, with you guys? He's healing."

His voice cracked for just a moment. "Thank you for loving him like that"

And just like that-I was crying before dinner.

His parents arrived right after.

Tae ran to them-shouted "Eomma! Appa!"-and suddenly he was six again

His mom looked at him like the world had righted itself. Then she looked at us.

"I've been waiting to meet the men who make my son smile like that."

I tried to speak, but my throat tightened.
"He makes us smile like that," I managed.

She laughed. Hugged us. Left warmth in her wake. His dad nodded silently, but his eyes said everything.

Then came Minji-Jiwon's soulmate, and Tae's longtime friend.

"I finally meet the soulmates," she smirked, offering a salute. "And don't worry, I'm saving the embarrassing stories till dessert."

"She's not bluffing," Jiwon added, adoring her with his whole body.

The faces kept coming. Each one layered with connection, stories, warmth.

Yeona and Ryota felt like a couple straight out of a fantasy novel. Yeona took my hand the second she saw me.

"You're safe here," she said, firm.

"Thank you," I blinked.

"I mean it. Y/N loves you both. So do we."

Ryota ruffled Kook's hair like he was family already. "Been watching your games, man. You're unreal."

Kookie lit up. "Tae hyung said you're unbeatable at Overwatch."

Ryota laughed. "He's dramatic. I'm good. You're a legend."

Jae blew in like glitter in human form. "You two? You're giving everything. I live."
