Laughter can be heard throughout his whole house and Jeff never thought he could be this happy. Never had he imagined that he would finally feel complete.

He quickly grabs the camera and records the sweet moments of his daughter Aid pampering kisses all over her baby brother Jungkook.
He quickly wipes his tears before his wife could notice and pick on him for being so sentimental.

"Aid, kiss him softly sweetie, he's still a baby"

"Sowy mama" Aid smiles and plants a soft kiss on Jungkook's nose and Jungkook doesn't hesitate to try to reach for her.

"Your are such a good big sister my little princess" I tell my sweet daughter and she looks up at the camera with the biggest smile I've ever seen on her.

"Lookit the baebie is hooome" she tells the camera as the smile never leaves her face.

"Yes he is love, the baby is finally home" my wife is the one smiling so brightly at the camera now and I can't help but remember that a year and a half ago we never thought we could be as happy as we are right now.

"I'm so sorry to be the one to tell you this Mr. and Mrs. Becker but after looking at all the test results it looks like your previous doctor was indeed correct and you are not going to be able to bear anymore children, again I am so sorry to tell you this but it's not all bad news there is other ways for you to have children. There is adoption and-"

" Thank you , we really appreciate your opinion and we will talk about other options in private " I interrupt the doctor before he can continue and glance quickly at my wife as she tries to hold back her tears.

"Of cour-"

"Thank you for your time, we can show our selfs out" it's my wife now speaking and she quickly gathers her things and waits for me at the door

" I'm sorry again" the doctors says quickly and I hold my wife's hand as we walk to the elevator and ride it down to the parking garage.

As soon as we enter the car and both our doors are closed my wife breaks down into tears, breaking my heart piece by piece as more and more tears roll down her face.

"Angel, please don't cry we had talked about this being a possibility"

"I'm- I ... "

"Oh angel, please " I reach across to wipe some of her tears.

" All I wanted for so long was to have a big family, to give you a big family" she takes a big breath as she tries to calm her breathing down so she can keep talking and after a couples seconds and a couple breaths she continues.

"We- we know how lonely it is to be the only child. We are both the only children in our family and we both wanted many kids. I wanted Aid to grow up with siblings to grow up feeling loved and cared for by her siblings and now I can't even give her or you for that matter that simple thing" she continues taking small breaths and she tries to get rid of the tears that don't stop.

" Angel, Aid is only 6moths old she doesn't know the different of having or not having sibling yet and I know that's what we wanted but plans change. We can be happy with just our sweet princess"

" I know your right and my brain knows you are right but I can't help but feel heartbroken, I'm sorry hun, I probably look like a spoiled brat crying about something so superficial"

"Angel wanting a big family is not superficial"

"What did I do to deserve you Jeff " my wife looks at me like I'm her world and my heart can't help but beat twice as fast just for her.

"I must've been a saint in my past life to be deserving of someone like you my sweet angel"

" We are going to be okay, right ?"

"Of course we are angel, we have each other and we have our daughter we will be more than okay"

"Dinner was wonderful, as always Grace" Our best friend Ilhan ( he likes it to be pronounced Ian) tells my wife as she collects the silverware

" Thank you " she smiles politely

"When do you and Lana leave for Korea?" my wife asks as she sets down the red velvet cake she has made for dessert in-front of Ilhan's plate.

"We leave next week and honestly I really don't want to go , like at all. I don't even speak Korean! My mom doesn't even speak Korean either so I already know this trip is going to be oh so terrible"

"Choi! Don't speak about your native land that way" my wife scolds him just as she used to do when we were all in high school.

"Grace! You know my father was the one who was Korean and he died when I was seven, seven Grace! I don't know anything about Korea and my wife is the one who is so eager to know all about it. I'm just going with the flow to make her happy"

"Happy wife , happy life good choice my friend " my wife send me a death glare and Ilhan snickers as he notices

"Lana has always loved leaning about new cultures, she's a Multicultural teacher for crying out load plus she handles all those clubs at school, she obviously wants to see the word and it doesn't matter if you like it or not Korea is a part of your world" my wife scolds Ilhan again and this time I can't help but add my two cents

"Plus she's been doing so much charity work with various companies over there, you should be proud of all the work she puts in"

" I know, this year her A.P class along with her model UN club came up with such a clever wag to reduce the cost of maintaining government run children shelters and orphanages  and a very well know orphanage actually responded and scheduled a meeting for her when we are in Korea, she was so happy"

"Have you guys started planing on having any children soon?"  My curious wife asks Ilhan

" No, we've only been married for six months it's way too early to be thinking about kids"  Ilhan responds with a panicked look on his face

"It's never to early to start planning" she gives him a stern look

"Plus you guys hace know each other for years, probably longer than Jeff and I do what's the hold up? I want our children to be best friends just like we are!"

"Sorry Grace but Jeff takes the best friend title, we were each others best men"

"You are so ungrateful! We've known each-other longer yet you pick him over me?"

"Children settle down, I don't want anyone waking up my sleeping princess! Plus there's no point in arguing, I'm the best friend and that's it"  I smile proudly and my wife just rolls he eyes at us

"I hate you both, next time Lana doesn't leave you dinner when she has a conference I won't feed you!"

"Okay Grace, that is a big threat please take it back! I love your food"  Ilhan whines just like our daughter

" you dug your own gave buddy" I whisper

2 weeks later

"Grace!! Grace! Lana and Ilhan are on the phone"

"In the living room! "

"Here's Grace, Lana"

"Gracie, I know you're not convinced on the whole adoption thing but hear me out real quick" my wife sighs and gestures for me to come closer

"Lana you know I wanted to have my own kids, my blood related kids-" my wife sighs again and I'm presuming Lana cut her off

"Okay, okay I'll listen, tell me what so important"  my wife maneuvers the phone so we can both listen to Lana speak

"We met this baby, he is most precious thing I've seen, well since Aid of course" Lana giggles " anyways I'm getting off track, the baby is only a few weeks old, his mom passed away almost as soon as he was born and his father sadly lost his life in an work accident while she was still pregnant. Gracie both of his parents where the only child and this baby's grandparents are long gone. Grace since I laid eyes on this baby I knew he was meant for you guys"  I can't see a single tear rolling down my wife's face and I know she probably feels terrible for this baby but not to the point where she's want to fly to Korea to adopt him.

" That sounds terrible Lana but I don't-"

"You wanna know the craziest thing Gracie"  He was born the day Aid turned 2! Gracie the baby was even born at the same time as Aid. 10:30pm Grace"  I can clearly hear that Lana is trying to hold back her sobs, she too knows just how much Grace was looking forward to having many children

"If you love the baby so much why don't you adopt him " my head turn quickly to look at my wife in the eyes as I give her a stern look she understands that he was too harsh on Lana

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to come out so cold Lana"

"I know Gracie, I know how hard this whole thing has been on you but Gracie if you could only see this baby. He would make you and Jeff and Aid so happy! He's just as sweet as Aid was"

"Lana-" mu wife cleans her tears and musters a smile "email me a picture" and both Lana and I  knew that was gonna be all it took for my angel to give this baby a chance

Only a few hours later we are sitting in-front of our computer waiting for the picture to load as Aid bounces on my legs.

"Do you think this is a good idea Jeff?"

"We are only looking at a picture angel! No commitment"

We both hold our breath as the picture of Lana holding the baby turn from pixels to a full clear picture and we are both breathless

"Baeebie" Aid yells happily as she tries to reach for the baby on the screen

"Look at his eyes Jeff, he's beautiful"

"Baeebiee" Aid starts whining and  makes grabby hand towards the baby

"Would you love the baby Aid?" my wife looks down at Aid on my lap

" Wobb the baebie" Aid makes grabby hand at the baby and I lift her towards the screen. As soon as she in front she leaves wet kisses on the screen right where the baby's face is located.

"She loves him already" my wife whispers as she tries to stop tears from rolling down her face

"What are you thinking angel?" I take her hand in one one mine as a put Aid back on my lap

"That I'm crazy for falling in love with a baby through a computer screen"

"Then I guess all 3 of us are crazy" I mumble as we break into laughter

Our laughter is cut short as our phone starts ringing.

Grace quickly answers knowing it's Lana on the the other side

"Did you see him Gracie?" Lana yells excitedly

"Yes, we all saw him"

"And?"

"What's his name Lana?"

"Jeon Jungkook, his mom named him right before she took her last breath"

"Jeon Jungkook, what a beautiful name for such a beautiful boy"

"So?"

"Give us all the details from the adoption agency you trust the most. I want him Lana, you are right, he's meant to be ours"

"Baaeeiibiie" Aid yells again

This time my wife doesn't wipe her tears she lets them flow down her face as she smiles brightly at our daughter

"Yes Aid, the baby is going to come live with us. He's going to be our baby! Your baby bother"

This fist chapter isn't edited! Please let me know if you see any errors!

Thank you for giving this book a chance, I really hope you like it!

Sorry if this chapter is too long I tried to get Jungkook's whole adoption thing out of the way.

I don't know Korean in the slightest, the only Korean words I know come from the many times the members have said a certain word but I probably don't know how to even spell most of those words 😂😂

If at any point any of you fell like my writing can come off as disrespectful to Koreans or Korean culture please let me know so I can fix it as soon as possible!
Once again thank you for giving me and this book a chance!

Let's get thru this journey together

Fighting! 💪🏼
