"I can't believe that I never introduced you to Soonie, Doongie and Dori!"
"Yes, you're right. Shame on you."

My boyfriend laughs while opening the door to his home. As we get in, I can already hear Minho's mom. She's asking in korean if it was Minho who came in and Minho screams "Yes, it's me!" in korean.

At that point, I am proud to understand what they said. I guess, I'm getting better and better.

I already got to know his parents so they know me and they are even looking forward to having a grand child soon.

Minho's mom runs downstairs and smiles as she sees me. She takes my hand and looks at my stomach. "Ohhh, the baby has grown so much, lovely!"
I nod and smile at her. "Yes. It's practicing Taekwondo in there. I can imagine my brother becoming its teacher soon!"
His mom laughs and then hugs me and Minho. "Ohhh, I missed you!", she says now in korean and kisses Minho's cheak like a million times.
Lino mumbles something and she lets go of him in laughter. "So what brings you here?", she then asks and my boyfriend answers in korean but I can only understand the names of his cats.

Suddenly, I see a dark cat which is coming to us but as she sees me she hides behind a chair and looks at Minho like she is looking for his help.
"Dori!", Minho shouts with such a beautiful smile which is making me also smile. So that is Dori.

After Dori, the other two cats come in because they want to greet their father but again, they see me and hide.
Minho goes over to them and carries Dori up. "This is Ahri", he whispers. "My annoying girlfriend..."
I laugh and shake my head. "You're unbelievable! That's how you introduce me to your babies?!"
"That's how you introduce me to your babies?", he repeats but with an annoying voice.
"Hey, I don't sound like that!"
"You do."
"Naur!"
"Naur!", he repeats again and laughs loudly.

I just sigh and look at the other two cats who are still hiding. "They are so shyyy..."
"I would be scared to if I saw you for the first time looking like that", he says referring to my pregnant stomach.
"You sassy assh-"
"Ah! My mom's here, no cussing!" He grins and lets Dori down on the couch. Then, he sits down on the floor and Soongie and Doorie run to him. I look at them with a smile on my face. They love him like he was their father. Even though I know he likes to be called their "brother" rather than their "father". But he's more than that.

I spend the rest of the day getting to know his babies and they slowly get used to me. They are still a bit scared but I got to touch them for just a bit and that was definetely a progress.

"So... we have to talk about the name."
I sit next to Lee Know on the Couch and cuddle with him. Well, I am trying to cuddle but he's making boxing positions as if I was an enemy or something.
"We don't even know what it's gonna be."
"Yes, but we can talk about both genders. Because if it's a girl and she grows up we can tell her how her name would've been if she was a boy. And if it is a boy we can tell him what his name would've been if he was a girl, you know? That's exciting."
"I don't know. Is it exciting or just a useless information he or she could also live without?"
"Both." I smile at him and he sighs.
"Fine. What are you thinking?"
And finally, we're starting to talk about our baby's name.

"If it's a girl, I'm thinking of something like Sook... Or Soo Yun!"
"Ugly names. You have to think about the meaning! What about Soo Ae?"
That seems to be a pretty name. I kinda like it that he is worrying about the meaning. I know that it's common in korean cultur to think a lot about the meaning of a name.
"What does that mean?"
"It means "generous human". I want our child to be good to others and to have respect. That's pretty important to me."
"You're right", I say and continue to think. "And if it's a boy?"
"Then, we'll call him Baekhyun."
"That's random. Why Baekhyun?" He seems so professional in what he's doing.
"Because that means "good elder brother". I want him to be a good brother because he won't be our only child."

Wow. He is so cute. I'm beginning to get red but still, I slap him.
"How can you say that?", I mumble flustered. "I am the one carrying the child! You should ask me first!"
Minho looks at me in pain. "Ouch... No need to slap me!"
"Sorry, hormones. Nevermind... I think that's a great name with a great meaning BUT I don't want to name my son after a K-Pop Idol. I don't want to think about Baekhyun of EXO everyday when saying my child's name or just looking at it."
Minho sighs. "Okay. Then, what about Jun-Seo?"
"Talented AND happy, huh? That's like a double win." I smile at him and kiss his cheak. "Great decisions. Let's talk about that when we know the gender."

Sometimes, I feel sorry for him. He has to go through all this times in which my hormones are kicking.
I was the one wanting to talk about the child's name BEFORE knowing the gender and now, I want to talk about it after knowing...

Lee Know nods and plays with my hair. "You're annoying, you know that?"
I have to smile and nod. "Yes, I do."
"Good."
