SERENDIPITY

CHAPTER 36

OFFICIAL MOTHER

The weather here in Malabar is hot, but okay. We went to Periyar National Park, but the next day I fell very sick, so we had to cancel. Jim was busy with his work, but he was making sure to spend his time with me. On June 13, when Jim left for his meeting, I felt weird, as I didn't want him to leave, but he had to go, as that was supposed to be our last day in India. I missed Korea. Around 1 p.m., I felt that my water had broken. Jim was at lunch with his partners, and no one expected me to give birth in my eighth month. Panic rose inside me. The fear of losing my children was so powerful with that unbearable pain. While I was trying to pick up my phone, someone rang the doorbell for room service. He opened the door using the master key after hearing my screams. He called the ambulance, and I called Jimin. And an ambulance came. I don't recall much, but what I recall is that Jimin was there by my side; he himself was panicking and was trying to calm me down. He was recalling every strategy our instructors, Mihyun and Tae, gave us. I was scared, as my doctor was also not there to assist me. Darkness engulfed me. I opened my eyes after around two hours. I found Jim singing a melodious song for our children. I can't believe they are finally out. When Jimin noticed that I had gained consciousness, he ran towards me and hugged me, saying that he was scared for me, that I was so brave, and that he was proud of me. He gave me our babies, and we both ended up crying. They felt so soft, so Gentel. He informed everyone that I gave birth to kids, and soon we received face time. I felt that instead of talking to me, they were talking to babies. I told Mih to bring our stuff, as for the next 2 months we are stuck here. With the help of Tae, we named our little girl Bora, which means I love you till the end, as purple is the last colour of the rainbow, and Yoongi named our son Beom-seok, which means like a rock. I was feeding them, and it was so fucking difficult as to how I could feed both of them at the same time. Jimin went outside because he had to attend some phone calls because he left that meeting in the middle. Someone entered the room, and I was scared but found Jungkook's father-in-law; he was a bit earlier than others. I greeted him, but he was in a hurry to meet the kids, so first he went to the washroom and washed his hands, then held them one by one. For the first time, I saw him crying. He turned towards me and thanked me. He said, "My kids are trying to maintain distance from me; I don't have anyone Y/N. I feel alone every time. My wife died nineteen years ago, and it was really tough managing both of them and the company together. When Namjoon married a boy that broke my heart, you know, without my presence, they married, and I couldn't have some grandchildren. Jin said he didn't want to marry now, my Jimin. I tried to protect my boys from everything this world has to offer, especially my Jimin, who is an angel, but I'm glad you are with him. This is the last time you will see me cry. Okay, forgive it and stop crying.'' He hugged me, and Jim entered and joined us. It was my life's biggest achievement .After some hours, everyone came and our stuff too. I teased Jungkook that I had made his lovely father-in-law cry; they were not believing me. Hanuel was so fascinated to see someone smaller than him. With a lot of scolding from Mih, he held Bora, and he was not letting her go. Jungkook joked that when they grow up, we will make them marry, and Hnauel said, "I will kiss her every morning and give her my favourite toys. All four of us will play princesses and will make castel, and she will be my princess. I will not make her cry every night on Sunday like Daddy makes Momma." First of all, we were shocked, but Jimin decoded it, and Mih and Tae were dying of embarrassment. Jim whispers in my ears, "Don't worry, love, we will make our room soundproof." But now I feel like a cow whose main motive in life is to give milk. They only come to me when they are hungry, as most of the time they are with Jungkook's father-in-law. My body feels so bad, but Jimin and Eomma are trying to help me with everything. But I have to say that Jimin is so supportive with everything. I'm so lucky to have a person like him; he is so patient and wonderful with three of us .

If Bora would read her school books with this dedication, she would be in first place, not second, at her school, but it seems that place was reserved for her brother. pink colour flashed on her cheeks, and she was feeling them a bit warm. Was Hanuel so clingy since her birth? And her uncles and parents had been shipping them since the day she was born? She was busy thinking about the time when Haneul was there to support her, but her chain of thoughts broke due to a phone call. Why Haneul was calling her at 2 a.m.
Hanuel: Hey, my lady, why are you not sleeping? Is something bothering you? Do you want me to come over?
Bora: Why are you not sleeping, Mr. Kim? Do you want me to sing a lullaby for you like a little baby?
Haneul: That would be best, but I have the right to take care of you. Were you reading a book again?
Bora: Hmm, but I was just going to sleep anyway.
Haneul: Great, have a wonderful night, and you know I am always there for you, okay? Dream about me, Ms. Park.
Bora: Hey, why would I?
And with that, the phone call ended. Bora noticed it's too late and tomorrow she has to go to work, so she slept but didn't dream about Haneul.
