later in the afternoon the couple finally woke up realizing their youngest son was no longer with them but to their surprise the whole house was empty

"okay, okay don't freak taeyong i'm sure theres an explanation somewhere" yua frantically said

"me freak out! you're the one thats making me freak out where is our children" taeyong exclaimed

yes the two parents were freaking out, everyone was literally gone! the kids has vacation from school, their little adults had work then a little ding came from their phones

"i didn't even think to check my phone" yua sighs in relief looking at her recent messages

"they're at the cafe with the boys, seonghwa is giving them actual jobs" she chuckles, taeyong nods also sighing of relief

the two were relaxed and back cuddled up in bed but bored out of their minds without the constant screaming, fighting and petty pouts

"lets go on a date" taeyong suggests yua smiled it they haven't gone on a proper date in a while

"okay lets! but i have no clothes to wear" she pouts taeyong pinches her puffed cheeks "don't worry babe you can wear mine"

"okay! i'm going to take a shower, pick out the clothes for me please" taeyong nodded heading to his closet while yua went to the bathroom

when the two got done they left notes on the door for when the children got home but only if they knew what chaos was going on at the cafe

seonghwa had put the kids to shadow his workers however that was a disaster

chenle was being a perfect little manager with seonghwa and hongjoong even helping to count the money which they found cute but when chenle was being an angel the couldn't even say the same about his brothers

jaemin for some reason kept suggesting putting 16 shots of espresso in the drink

"this an extreme health concern buddy" yunho was absolutely baffled when jaemin convinced him to drink it

jaemin cutely smiles "it'll give you energy uncle, you can't blame me for that" yunho melts at it "i can never blame you for anything" pinching his cheek

next thing you hear it, you can hear donghyuck yelling out "uncle! uncle!" while tugging on san's apron

"uncle we can't sell the watermelon juice!" san gave him a confused expression "are we out of watermelon buddy?"

donghyuck shook his head "our watermelon is fine" putting san further to his confusion

"minhyung isn't fine! he looks weird" dragging him to minhyung who was just intensely staring into the steam machine

san laughed at the sight then patted donghyuck's head "don't worry buddy minhyung is just fasinated we can sell watermelon juice!"

now that their little circus was recapped the parents was playing around in the arcade

"dude fucking help me i can't hit that one clown!" yua whined, she had hit all the other ones except one of course it was in the corner

taeyong was laughing at her suffering he found it cute how competitive she was but he realized she's been trying for awhile and their game play was almost up

he picks up a play sightly aiming at their last goal
ding's were heard the next moment

"babe! we did it you did it! i love you!" yua jumps pecking taeyong lips, taeyong couldn't help but blush

they rarely had kisses where it didn't land on their cheeks so it was a special occasion for them

their hands were connected as they were searching around for their last game before redeeming the tickets that was in the card

"oh babe! lets play this" taeyong excitedly pulled her over landing them in front of a mock beer pong set up

they swiped their cards then the lights lit up, "ou we can versus each other" yua's voice perks up

taeyong's competitive nature was now showing "you're so on", "be ready love i'm a boss at this"

starting off they were head to head if yua got one in taeyong would to yua was tired of their tied score so she started to play dirty pushing him out of the way

"you're in my personal bubble yong" now she was winning since taeyong just stood their in belief

"i don't think so yua, we share the same bubble" he giggles scooting closer knocking her on her butt

"okay that was a little harsh" she said dusting herself off, "oh yua you're losing" he sang taunting her

yua gasps rapidly throwing the ping pongs in, results? taeyong had won but yua's score was only one behind taeyong

"are you serious! you're fucking serious right now? one point?!" yua yelled "what i did say i was good" taeyong smiles flipping his hair

"okay stop your pouting babe lets go get some prizes" he kissed her cheek then took her hand

shortly after giving the arcade attendant the hardest time ever they walked out with various prizes getting some for the kids of course

they finished their night by watching twilight or yua reciting every scene however in the middle of the movie the door had open revealing the tired kids

the parents propped up as fast as lighting excited to see their kids, "how was work today?" yua asked

"it was cool! i saw cold milk become hot milk without a microwave!" minhyung smiles

"they did a really good job today fast learners but chenle is my favorite mini manager" jaehyun chuckles ruffling the little one's hair

"wow my little boys will work with me more!" that is what made the boys all excited for their next shift

"uncle mingi said that i can make latte's with him next time!" jeno said, "make sure they're hot"

"what did you and daddy do when we were gone?" shotaro asked curiously

"oh thats right! we went to go play games but wait here we have a surprise for you" taeyong got up from his spot getting the bags filled with candy

"since you guys did so good at your job we have candy as a reward!" taeyong announced

"remember only two pieces then brush your teeth because?" the boys finished the reason why

"to have strong teeth!", after that the family washed up and were now wrapped up in the living room watching encanto

and of course everyone was singing along.
