A Friend like V
•••HONEY•••

I sent the message before closing my phone, resting my head on the chair out of fatigue. The bbq had been fun and I had drank a little too much.

"Mummyyy!" I heard a tiny, yet powerful, voice say before my son jumped on me, causing me to giggle out of happiness.

"You are one heavyweight." I say ruffling his hair as he grinned at me, his eyes disappearing in his chubby cheeks.

"Mummy... Uwncle Javson said he has a big surprise fwor my biwrthday."

"Did he now..."

"When can we go see them so I can see my pwresents."

"Sweet P...we have a lot of time before your before- and I'm sure they will give it to you on the day. Don't try to trick them into giving it to you early, you sly fox!" I explain, tickling him causing for his giggles to echo through our home.

He leaned his head on my lap, and slowly began closing his eyes, as I massaged his scalp with my fingers eventually coaxing him to sleep.

"If you ever need anything, let us know." Jimin mother, says softly rubbing my shoulders.

"Thank you. I know this is a big secret to keep. But you know how hard he has worked to get here. I...we can't be the reason he loses everything he has worked so hard for." I beg her.

"Maybe. But I honestly don't think he needs to choose dear. It's your choice, one day, I hope you can give him his choice too." She asks with a sad smile.

The guilt ate at me as they left for their short visit. I rubbed my big belly, calming myself with my unborn child.

Was this the right choice?

I picked up my baby in my arms, carrying him to his astronaut themed room, tucking him tightly to sleep before planting a soft kiss on his forehead.

He was just like his father when he was asleep.

Matter of fact, he was the same awake too.

Was I never going to tell Jimin about his son?

Did it make me a bad person?

How many times have I asked myself that question?

I looked back at my little angel before turning off the lights and shutting the door, wishing very much that things could be different.

"I need 500 white roses and fast." I commanded as I tapped at my computer screen.

"I've tried all our contacts-"

"Try harder. What about friends of friends! Those roses are the main point of her theme." I explain to my team.

We were having a nightmare of planning this high profile wedding that was in just under 2 weeks.

"I'll get on it."
