Chapter 105 - The Fair

"Hey, so the kids, Shiwoo-I mean Mr. Kim and I were planning on going to the fair later. Do you guys and Heesung wanna come?" I asked Lia and Minjae as we ate our lunch on the floor of our office for we were too lazy to walk to the break room.

"Ouu yeah I was thinking about that. What do you say babe? Wanna go?" asked Lia and Minjae sighed.

"Are you guys like a thing now? Will he be here every time?" asked Minjae and Lia nudged him in the side with his elbow.

"Umm if I may recall you were one of the persons who forced me to call him back then so what has changed now?" I asked raising a brow and he raised his shoulders, "so are you guys coming or not? We are meeting up at at about four pm."

They both nodded their head yes and we finished our meal right there on the floor bickering and chatting like how we usually do.

I left work a little bit over three pm for I had a meeting that I totally forgot about, but it was fine for the kids were not that far away.

I had called their baby sitter prior to me leaving so they were all ready by the time I arrived.

"Hey my mini replicas. How was your day?" I asked as I hugged them both showering them with kisses.

Adrian sighed dramatically and I raised a brow wondering what could have possibly upset this little man.

"What's wrong monster?"

He sighed once more and I held their hands as we walked to the car saying goodbye to the baby sitter before buckling them in.

I got into my seat buckling myself in and looked through my rare view mirror at Adrian who was still thinking, "Elisa what's wrong?"

At the sound of his middle name he finally caved and told me what was on his mind, "Elise told me that you promised to take us to the fair with our new dad. Mommy you promised."

He broke out into sobs as he pouted and Elise too started crying and my heart broke a little.

They had ganged up on me to guilt trip me and they were doing a good job.

They were such little minxes when they are around me, but nobody believes me for they are angels with them.

I watched for a little while longer as they sobbed before finally deciding to put them out of their toddler misery, "hmm. That's strange. I am picking you guys up early as if we were going to be late for the fair, but I guess not. I'll call your dad and tell him that you guys are crying so you wont make it to the fair okay."

"No no we not crying no more mommy no. Look mommy no water!" they screamed and I laughed at their words.

"Okay okay. We can go" I said and they started screaming in delight as we drove home.

I quickly gave them and myself a bath dressing us up in jeans and matched the twins top with mine.

We were clean and ready to go when Lia called asking us where we were, "we are walking towards the car now. We will be there soon."

"Okay meet us at the photo booth" she said about to hang up, but I stopped her as I remembered the question that I wanted to ask her.

"Do you see Shiwoo-I mean Mr. Kim there?"

"Uh no I don't see him. By the way why do you keep calling him Mr. Kim she asked as I strapped the kids in.

"Because he is my client and we are being formal with each other. We are not friends nor are we on good terms so might as well"

"Hmm. Okay. See you soon. Bye!" she hanging up in my ears as I drove off.

We arrived shortly after and it was quite crowded more than I expected since it was Wednesday, but I didn't mind.

I held the twins hands as we walked over to the phot booth where they were waiting, but Shiwoo was still no where to be seen.

I sighed as I waited a little while longer, standing on my tippy toes to look over the crowd when I finally saw him.

He looked eyes with me and made his way over never breaking eye contact and I felt butterflies when he smiled, "hi."

"Hi" I greeted as he bent down and said hi to the kids and they gave him a hug.

"Hi new daddy" said Adrian and I chuckled.

Adriel was quietly watching when I gave her a gentle shove for her to greet her father, "hello sir. It is nice to meet you again."

"Elise. He is your father not some stranger." I said quietly scolding her when Shiwoo stood back up on his feet.

"It's okay Miss Carter. I am still a stranger to them." he said still speaking to me formally.

"Who is Miss Carter?" asked Adrian and Adriel face palmed her self sighing.

"What do you mean baby? Don't you know mommy's name?" I asked pinching his cheeks.

"Oh yeah!" he laughed and I shook my head smiling at him.

"You guys coming or what?" asked Lia from beside me and Shiwoo looked a bit uneasy and awkward.

"Yeah lets go" I said holding onto Adriel's hand as Shiwoo held Adrian.

We began our date by playing games at the stalls, each of us taking our turns to win something for the kids.

Minjae and Shiwoo were letting their toxic masculinity show while they were playing the strength test and Lia and I rolled our eyes as we played a shooting game winning more teddy bears.

They eventually caught up to us and were panting by the time they did glaring at each other obviously disliking that the either was her.

"Who's hungry?" I asked as we neared a street vendor and the kids jumped up excited.

We ordered seven Korean corndogs for all of us as we rode the merry go round, each child with an adult.

We had a lot of fun I'm not gonna lie and the awkward tension between Shiwoo and Lia and Minjae had grown to be less.

They engaged in conversations and even laughed together and they won and lost games.

Adriel seemed to have warmed up to Shiwoo by now for she allowed him to hold her hand and she giggled when he pinched her cheeks.

The picture was perfect in front of us and it didn't feel like it was just yesterday that they became aware of each other's existence.

Shiwoo was surprisingly good with the kids and I honestly never expected for him to stick around, but the love in his eyes shun bright they refer to him as their "new daddy."

Although Shiwoo and I were a rough topic he didnt let that stop him from spending time with the kids and did so everyday this week.

His family had yet to know about the twins' existence so he invited us over for the weekend to meet them.

I had already met his father on a business occasion, but I was nervous to meet him for personal.

Like come on.

Imagine your son who had left the country for years and only returned for he was in trouble randomly show up to your house with his lawyer claiming that she is the mother of his twins whom he has known for less thana week.

That shit sounds crazy even to me and it's my story.

Well, things cant get any weirder than this right?
