"Next week is Haneul's third birthday", she told Joon while doing her work at home.
"Jinjja? I didn't know he's an autumn baby too!"
"Yeah, the same date as yours."
Namjoon got excited upon hearing it! "Wow! That's so cool. So, how do you want to celebrate it?"
"Uhm.. nothing big. Maybe I'll just bring him to the theme park? Or we'll just have dinner. I don't know."
"Okay. I'll take care of it since it's my birthday too."
🍂🍂🍂🍂
On Haneul's birthday, Namjoon invited the members and Lily's best friends Eun Min and Mo Hyun. He brought them all to the theme park which he had closed for their closest friends. He sent Hoseok an electronic invite too but wasn't able to come.
Namjoon carried Haneul on his shoulders while watching the fireworks. Lily looked at them and closed her eyes. She prayed for more days to witness more of Haneul's smiles and laughter.
The fireworks has ended and she opened her eyes. Namjoon is holding a bouquet of tulips and gave it to her.
"Oh thank you!"
"I've been thinking a lot these past few days and weighing on a lot of decisions I'll be making. But I knew in my heart that I'll be damned if I won't ever try to make you mine in this lifetime."
"What's this? What are you saying?"
"I want to take care of you. I want to be the first person you see every morning and the last one every night. I want to be the reason for your smiles. I want to be your other half. I want to officially be Haneul's dad. Please let me be."
Haneul took something in his pocket and showed a small box to his mom. "Eomma, look!"
Namjoon got on his knee and took the ring, "Will you be Mrs. Kim Namjoon?"
"Oh my god!" She cried. Although she knew how much he wanted her ever since, she never thought he would actually propose to her, especially this time.
"Eomma jebal? (Please mom?)" Haneul grabbed Lily's leg and hugged her.
Lily is so surprised. "Yes!"
Their friends cheered for them!

They didn't want to wait longer and had their wedding the week after. It was a small private gathering. The three of them went to Tokyo for their honeymoon because it's Namjoon's favorite city.
Days and months passed and Lily felt weaker and weaker. The cancer in her stomach is spreading a lot faster than expected. The doctors advised not to pursue with the operation since it will just put her and the baby in her tummy into a more dangerous state.
He never showed weakness in front of his wife but deep inside, seeing her very weak is killing him. He wanted to take all the pain away but can't do anything. Lily is 7 and a half months pregnant to her second child and they're all excited to see the baby.
"Yeobo, if you will have to choose between me and the baby, please save our child. I already had so much love from you and now it's time for the little one to receive it."
"Yeobo, don't say that. The doctors will do their best to save you and our baby. Please don't say that."
"I love you."
"I love you. I love you more than anything in this world."
He held her hands tightly and kissed them.
Beeeeeeeeep.....
The monitor beeped loud and Namjoon rushed to call the doctors. They performed an immediate aid and brought her inside the operating room.
He broke down in tears.

It was a bright sunny morning when Namjoon got a call from Bang Si Hyuk, BTS' former manager. He told them to check on his email cause they've all been invited for an idols' reunion show. He called the other members too and agreed to come to the show.
That day, he went to the show and walked the red carpet with his two kids, Haneul and Dal. Everyone got surprised and confirmed a long time rumor that he already got married to a non-showbiz lady. Jimin and Yoongi came with their little girl and Jin with his pregnant wife Miyaka. Jungkook and Taehyung came to the show as a couple and still dashing as ever. Hoseok came alone. He still has this sweet smile and happy disposition.
At the backstage, Haneul ran into BTS' dressing room where Hoseok is seated checking on his emails.
"Appa! Appa!" He called while looking for Namjoon.
Hoseok looked at him.
"Annyeong! What's your name?"
"Annyeonghaseyo. Jeo ireumeun Kim Haneul-imnida. (Hello. My name is Kim Haneul)" He bowed a little while introducing himself.
"Aigoo! Neomo gwiyeowo! (Oh my, you're so cute!)"
"Kamsahamnida. (Thank you)", he answered with a sweet smile.
"Haneul-a! Haneul-a!" Namjoon came carrying Dal on his arms. Hoseok saw them and got surprised.
"There you are!" Namjoon said. "Oh, hey! Long time no see."
"Hey! Is he your son?" Hoseok asked.
"Yes, he is."
The others came in the room too. They're surprised to see Hoseok after several years of not being able to come to most of their group gatherings.
"Hyung!" Jungkook went and hugged him. "I missed you!"
"I missed you too.. how are you?"
"I'm good. We're doing fine." He said.
"I'm sorry for not being there for you guys all these years. I missed you all."
All of them hugged him and showed how much they all missed each other. They talked a lot about their lives after they disbanded.
"I didn't know you got married and already have two beautiful children. Who's the lucky wife?" He asked Namjoon while playing with Haneul.
Suddenly, there was silence.
"It was Lily."
"Lily?... Was?" His smile faded.
"Yeah. Lily Aragon. I married her but lost her to stomach cancer last year."
"I'm sorry. I didn't know."
"That's okay. Don't be sorry."
"I'm- I'm glad you had two-"
"He's your son."
"What?"
"When I met her again two years ago, she already had a two year old son with her. She didn't tell me who the dad was until before she passed away. I loved him like my own but I thought it's your right to know. Lily left us with two beautiful memories of her."
He took Haneul and hugged him. He cried and felt bad and disappointed for being the way he was with her. They parted ways that day with Haneul in Lily's tummy.
"Haneul is her sky. Dal is her moon. And you are her sun. But they are my universe." Namjoon told Hoseok.
