upon hearing my phone ringing on my nightstand, i groaned and shifted to my side. without opening my eyes, i grabbed my phone and answered the phone call.
"yeobuseyo?" i said with a low voice.
"hana! your niece and nephew are here! just a few minutes ago!" i heard sung-han say.
i was confused for a few seconds. niece? nephew? few seconds ago?
"niece? nephew?" i mumbled as a question.
i heard sung-han laugh again before explaining, "hana! your eunnie just gave birth just now! the twins are born!" he said excitedly.
i gasped and squealed in happiness, "ah, jinjja!? mianhae-yo! i was blurry for a little while." i said.
"gwenchana. se-ri is okay too. she's sleeping right now. baby is also sleeping." sung-han said. i chuckled, "well, good luck, new father." i said and grinned.
he laughed, "gomawo. i already told papa and mama. they already know. you tell hansol and the kids later, okay?"
i chuckled, "nae." i replied.
"arraseo-yo. go back to sleep," he said.
i grinned, "nae. take care." i said to him.
"nae~," he simply replies and then we ended the call.
i look at my phone screen and it shows, 3:45 am. wow, seohyun-eunnie is really exhausted holding all the pain since yesterday morning. 24 hours of pain.
"babies are here?" i heard vernon's voice.
i chuckled and turn towards him, "mm. babies are here. mianhae, i woke you up." i said to him.
"gwenchana," he replies.
"alright, sleep back. i'm gonna go to the toilet first," i said to him.
"mm," he replies softly.
i chuckled and slowly get up from the bed. i place my phone back on the nightstand and went into the bathroom. of course, i was excited and happy that there will be two newborns in the house. also, lots of crying and worries.
after finishing my business in the bathroom, i went back to bed and i scoot near vernon until he lets my head on his upper arms.
"i can't wait to meet the babies," i muttered.
"i bet that they are small," he replies with a husky voice.
"i bet that they are really small," i added.
"really, really small."
i chuckled hearing his tired and soft voice.
"sleep," i said to him while i caressed his hair gently.
"don't stop do that," he whispered.
"mwo?" i asked him.
"playing with my hair," he replies.
"okay. now, sleep," i said to him. i played with his hair until i was assured that he has slept. and then, i went back to sleep. what a great way to start a day.

[ in the morning ]
"have you listed all that you're gonna buy for your classmates?" i asked the kids while they were having breakfast.
i made waffles for them. yesterday when we got out for dinner, i dropped by at the grocery and bought some more spread. chocolate spread at least for cho-reum because she loves chocolate. waffles and some fruits as their desserts. kiwi, cherries, and oranges. all that contain vitamin c.
"not yet," they replied.
"list it all out after breakfast. we're going out around 11:30 later. list it all out and then get ready to go out. we're having lunch outside later." i told them.
"aren't we going to visit the babies?" cho-reum asked. i chuckled.
"they are coming home tomorrow afternoon. plus, all of you are still under 12 years old. you cannot enter the ward. so, let's just wait for them to come home, okay? eomma will also not be going to the hospital. we wait for them to come home." i said. i know they are also excited to meet the babies.
"eomma, where is samchon?" shin-hye asked.
"oh, he's in the room. still showering. he had already taken his breakfast. after you take your breakfast, list out the gifts you want to find for your friends. you already saw all the gifts from the store that sunghan-oppa brought you to, right?" i asked them and they nodded.
"mm," i nodded. "list out everything and we'll buy them."
"anything? even though it's expensive?" cho-reum asked. i chuckled, "well – we still need to see if it's worth it." i replied before patting cho-reum's head. she nodded.
after they finished their breakfast, they went to the living room and jot down the gifts they want to buy for their classmates back in seoul. all of them are studying in a private school. private foreign school. they will be going home next week but i said it's better to buy your gifts earlier so we can pack it up and wrap it nicely in a gift box or gift wrappings.
"i'm done. i'm gonna shower now," dong-won said. i turned towards the living room and nodded, "just put the paper on the table." i said to him. "nae~," he replies as he closes the cap of his pen.
one by one they finish writing down their wish list to buy gifts for their friends. when vernon came into the house, he chuckled seeing the kids' writings.
"hye-joon really has neat writing," he commented as he picked up all four papers from the coffee table in the living room.
"he does," i nodded. i realized that too.
"i bet that he's a neat person," vernon said as he walks towards me.
"yeah, he keeps his room and dong-won clean every time," i told him. he nodded and smiled.
"you raise a good son," he said and i responded with a laugh.
"he developed it himself, i think. i seldom spend time with them lot." i said to him.
"aniyo," he replies, getting behind me and hugging me from behind.
i chuckled and nudge him, "the kids will see us." i said as i turn to look at him.
"they are upstairs, showering, remember?" he grins.
i chuckled and hit his arms lightly. he chuckled and suddenly kiss my cheeks. i laughed and pushed him away playfully. he grinned.
"go shower. i'll finish up this cleaning," he said to me.
"gwenchana. i'll finish this," i replied.
"go shower," he kisses my cheeks again, tickling me. "hajima~," i grinned.
"go," he tapped my arms while laughing.
"arraseo, arraseo," i nodded while washing my hands on the sink.
"you smell like maple syrup by the way," he said while i was drying my hand. i laughed, "is it because i ate waffles with maple syrup?" i asked while covering my mouth.
he laughed before pulling my hands down and kissing me.
i chuckled and gently tapped his chest for us to stop. he pulled away and i smiled at him.
"you really taste like maple syrup," he said with a grin. i chuckled, "that doesn't sound right but whatever." i said and he laughed.
"i'll shower first," i said to him. he smiled and nodded.
i pecked his lips and chuckle before walking away, leaving him in the kitchen to wash the remaining dishes.
