Y/N

After work hours, I went to Taehyung's office to pick up Jihyun. I knocked on the door before entering and found them both sleeping on the couch cuddled up together. Aw that looks so cute. 

I tap Taehyung's shoulder and he slowly opens his eyes and lets out a yawn. "Y/N? You done work?"

I nodded and picked up Jihyun trying my best not to wake him up. "Thank you so much for looking after him. I'm sorry if he caused any trouble."

"No worries." Taehyung smiles and shakes his head. He grabs his phone that was in Jihyun's hand ruffles his head. "The kid was cheeky but nothing I can't handle." 

I give him a grateful smile and I leave the building. Once I walked outside, Jihyun started to stir from the sudden blast of wind coming from outside. His eyes flutter open and he stares at me with confusion. "Mommy..."

"You're awake?" I stopped walking and fixed his hair with my free hand. He tiredly nods and I start walking down the street. "Granny and Ae already ate so why don't we go eat your favorite?"

"LAMB SKEWERS!" He screams and I laugh at his excitement. I placed him down and we walked to the nearest lamb skewer restaurant.

The bell jingled as we opened the door and the waitress looked up from the table she was cleaning. "Table for 3?"

"Three?" I turned around and I almost jumped out of my skin when I saw who it was. "Jungkook?"

He looks at me with the same shocked expression and I hear the waitress approach us. "Please follow me." She begins walking to a table and before I could correct her Jungkook and Jihyun were already walking behind her. 

I followed the three of them to our table and I awkwardly sat beside Jihyun and in front of Jungkook. Jungkook just takes a menu like this was normal and examines it. "Why didn't you correct her?"

"Does it matter that we're sharing a table? Just eat. I'll pay for it."

"I can't let you do that." I shook my head. "You're my boss."

"And as your boss it's my duty to treat you." He sighs and continues to scroll through the menu. "What a coincidence that we both came here though."

"Really? I remember this being one of most popular places to get lamb skewers. Looks like it's lost it's value overtime." I look at the nearly empty tables and old fashion decorations that used to be there back when I were in high school.

"However the food is still amazing." Jungkook comments and I smile. I wait for Jihyun to finish picking his order before calling the waitress over to place our order.

"One pork cutlet and lamb skewer set."

"Make it two lamb skewers." The waitress writes down our order and leaves. 

While waiting for our order, we started chatting for a while. Most of it was about the company, the rules, and how it's like to be his secretary and man did he have a lot of demands. 

Even when our food had arrived, he wouldn't stop talking about the company and I could see why he keeps getting new secretaries. None of them probably lasted long enough to hear him ramble on like this.

Every now and then I would check on Jihyun, his face was covered in sauce and I chuckled helping him wipe it off with a napkin. He pouts at me before taking another huge bite of his skewers. "You both seem to like skewers a lot." I laughed looking over at Jungkook who was devouring his skewers.

My eyes shifted between the two of them and I realized how similar the two looked when eating. Both their cheeks were puffed out to the max with all the food inside their mouths, their eyes wide open. They both reminded me of rabbits. 

I fed Jihyun one of my pork cutlets and he opened his mouth wide before munching away. He did a little dance before taking another bite of his meal. 

I grinned seeing my baby so happy and turned to the older in front of me. I scrunched my eyebrows together at the familiar feeling I get whenever I see him. The feeling of familiarity and something else. Have I seriously not seen or met him before

"Secretary Kim, I know that I'm handsome but do you have to stare at me like that?" Jungkook's words snapped me out of my thoughts and I glared at him.

"What do you mean 'staring at me like that'? I wasn't staring at you!" 

"I think you were." He smirks and pulls his credit card out of his wallet and I audibly gulped. A black credit card. Somewhere I could never reach. "I am your boss, what would everyone start thinking if you're caught staring at me like that at work?"

"For the last time I wasn't staring!" I argue and cross my arms over my chest. Jihyun looking back and forth between us with a huge grin appeared on his face. 

Jungkook doesn't say anything but the smirk on his face told it all. He pays with his card and we gather our things and leave the restaurant. I was about to take Jihyun to the bus stop but Jungkook has stopped me.

"Want me to drop you home?" He offers and I stared at him not knowing how to respond. "It's late for a lady and a young child to be walking home. Even if you take the bus." 

"Well.... Thank you then." I rubbed the back of my neck not knowing what to do and he guides us to his Mercedes Benz and I had a headache just thinking about how much it might've cost. I told him our address and he started driving.

----

Once we had arrived home I thanked Jungkook and walked inside with Jihyun. Ji Ae was waiting for us at the front door, a frown on her face. 

"Mommy! Why did you take Hyunie out for dinner and not me too?" She stomps her foot on the floor and shows her a photo of our dinner that Jihyun had sent her earlier. I gave my son a look and he only avoids making eye contact. "That's not fair! I want to eat lamb skewers too!"

"Then I'll take you out next time ok?" I smiled kneeling down to her level and then picking her up. "We'll invite granny and aunt Avery and Ina, it'll be a girls night out with no boys allowed so that means Jihyun will have to stay with grandpa at the hospital." 

"What?! That's not fair!" It was Jihyun's time to throw a tantrum and I placed Ji Ae down. 

"Go and get ready for bed! I must see you in your pajamas and in bed in 30 minutes!" The twins had left arguing and I went to the kitchen to see my mother wash the dishes. I take the plate out of her hand and take the sponge. "I can do it." 

"I heard from Ae that you went out to eat with your boss tonight." She winks at me and I roll my eyes knowing her intention.

"Mom first of all he's my boss." I sighed and cleaned the rest of the dishes. "Second of all he has a fiancee who kind of hates me because I've ruined their 'moment'."

"You never know." She unties her apron and I stop washing the dishes. She must've caught on to what I was thinking because she places her hand on my shoulder and pulls my head down so it was resting on top of hers. "Honey, even Jimin has a fiancee."

"I know." I whisper and bite my lip. "But I still love him."

"It's time to move on."

"....I know."

----

I brought them to the commercial set and Ji Ae starts jumping around and greeting everybody. "Yay! We're gonna be modelling!" Jihyun on the other hand was tired and calm. 

"Stop being so hyper, you're giving me a headache Ae."

"I see the two of them have a very close relationship." I spun around and saw Jungkook making his way towards us. People bowed as he passed them, I could feel the power that he was letting out although I was standing far away.

"Well they are twins...." I muttered.

Jungkook observes the twins while they got their makeup done and then he looks at me. "I think Ji Ae looks a lot like you." For some reason I felt my cheeks burning up. My eyes met his for one second and then I turned away. 

What is going on with me

Jungkook chuckles and then sighs. "Their father must be lucky."

I sadly smiled and looked at my little angels. "They don't have a father."

Jungkook looks at me somewhat shocked but I'm sure he knew about it earlier. "Then you're divorced? You look pretty young though." 

I shook my head and played with my fingers. "We never married."

"Then he just left you with the children?!" Jungkook said a little bit too loud making me feel self-conscious. 

I shook my head again and looked at the ceiling. "It was more like I never knew their father." I looked at Jungkook and he understood what I meant. 

"Sorry. Do they know?"

I clenched my right arm and bit my lip. "I'm scared." I admitted. "If they ever found him, if he gives them a better life than me. I'm scared they'll leave me for him." I looked at Jihyun's bag that he left with me, it was pretty old and dirty. "I can never give them a good life, not after what chose."

I felt an arm wrap around my shoulder and then I looked at Jungkook bewildered. "You looked like you needed someone to comfort you...." He muttered looking away. 

I softly smiled. "Thank you."

We stood like that for a while and then Jungkook speaks up again. "You know, your children love you a lot. I don't think that a random stranger will change that fact." 

I let out a small laugh and looked at Jungkook. "Do you do this to all your staff?" I questioned and he gave me a weird look.

"Whenever they're down you comfort them and have this much skin-ship with them?" I pointed to his arm that was still on my shoulder and then he shrugs. 

"Only to the ones who are hurting the most." I smiled at his kind gesture and continued on with my work.

I took notes of everything that happened on set and watched my children. I smiled at how happy they were. They really love modelling don't they

----

After hours of shooting, it was finally over. Everyone was starting to pack up while the kids were changing back into their clothes. I made sure that everything taken down like instructed before heading to the fitting room to check on the kids. 

They were already sitting there waiting for me to pick them up. 

"Are you ready to go?" They nodded and each grabbed one of my hands as I walked them out. Walking out I noticed that all the staff were gathered around together and I walked towards them curiously asking one of the closest staff.

"What are we all doing?"

"The chairman said that he'll treat the staff to dinner today." He smiles at me. "You should come too."

All the staff members start to depart probably to their cars and the restaurant location. 

"Mommy can we?" Ji Ae looks up at me and I scratched the back of my neck. "Please?"

"We don't even have a way to get there." 

"I can take you." I looked at Jungkook who walked towards us and rubbed Ji Ae's head which made her squeal. "My car can fit all of us."

"You don't have to-" I try to politely deny his offer but he wasn't having it. 

"Let's go kids." He ignores my words and take my children's hand dragging them out of the studio.

"MOMMY HURRY UP!" The twins laugh started becoming the ones dragging Jungkook out. I covered my eyes with my hand and sighed. Looks like I had no other choice.
