☽ cafe : secret garden

*carries the watering can and just waters the flowers that was on display, sets the can when feeling my head aching*
* Walks over to pull out one of the chair to take a seat and just massage my temple*
Ahh... I’ve been overworking myself again...
* lets out a small chuckle with a tint of disappointment appearing across my face and just fold my arm on the table so I can lay my head ontop of it to take a break*

@Taeyong Lee (β) Mhm Jiaheng is quite the charmer especially when it comes to making things for me. He loves drawing and making all these bracelets for me. He dug up some tulips to make me a crown~ I actually had it placed in resin so it could last longer.
/nods my head, nuzzling in before rubbing my round belly. Smiling as I can feel the slight movement/
Mm definitely.
Now I’m almost about ready to pop.
/laughs softly, deciding to sit down on a stool, humming happily/
Oh!! I can’t wait to try the pecan tarts. I can proudly say I love my pumpkin pie~

@Doyoung Kim (β) Really? Then he is going to have lots of fun being creative and making something special for his mama.
* smiles as I hug you for a bit before pulling away*
Its a blessing that you were able to have children of your own.
* nods and look over at your bump momentarily when you rub it*
From all those enduring, its worth the wait doyoung.
*chuckles softly and just shakes my head at you*
No doyoungie, you worked enough. Your lower back is aching too. Its better that you rest. Hmm we can taste test and try out the pumpkin pie we created together. Oh and also the pecan tart. Im sure the boys are excited to have a taste of uncle’s tasty treats.

@Taeyong Lee (β) Baby boy already knew how to make flower crowns~ He made a flower crown for me when we went to the orphanage.
/smiles when I talk about my boy. Humming softly I do the final details for the pies, looking over to the oven once it beeps. Humming quietly to myself I just hold the heating pad on my lower back/
/looks back to you, smiling and then rubbing my belly/
It’s definitely hard. Took forever for me to get pregnant. Now it’s just enduring the pain. I’ll be okay~
/smiles/
Hey hey.
I can still do more. Won’t be fast but I’ll still be able to work.
/nuzzles in happily/

@Doyoung Kim (β) Did you teach him how to make flower crowns?
* Glances over at you when you mention Jiaheng liking to do things like this, Once I hear the over alert me that its preheated, Grabs the mitten to get the pie we made and place it in the oven*
*sets the mittens down and looks over at you from behind seeing you rubbing your lower back, slowly goes up to you and rest my hand on your lower back to massage it gently*
It must be rough working while carrying two baby boys.
*tilts my head and continues rubbing your lower back*
No more overworking yourself, I will only allow you to take care of the flowers and nothing more. You did enough in the kitchen. Thank you for helping me make the pumpkin pie. The customers will like it.
* smiles softly at your direction and gives you a small hug, letting my cheek rest on top of your head momentarily*

@Taeyong Lee (β) Jiaheng will be excited to help you with making a flower crown for me. He likes doing things like that.
/giggles and I rub my lower back, carefully sitting down to rest my feet/

@Doyoung Kim (β) Nothing is impossible for Jiaheng and I to make. Since its gonna be for a special occasion which is the birth of your kids we gotta make it pretty for you to wear. Even while you are in your wolf form.
*nods and walks over to the oven to start it before going back to make the sweet pecan tarts*

@Taeyong Lee (β) Or anything that you can easily make for me dear. Anything you and Jiaheng make for me will be quite special.
/smiles, nodding my head/
Yes please.
We can heat up the oven~

@Doyoung Kim (β) Hmm... I will see what I have in the garden I have been working on. I will find other flowers to help Jiaheng arrange a crown for you.
*smiles and nods when you mentioned your favorite flowers*
How is the pumpkin pie coming along? Shall I pre-heat the oven?

@Taeyong Lee (β) Yeah I know I’ll just name them one name. Thankfully Dae and I don’t have to decide whose last name they’ll take on. We’re both Kim’s so yeah-
/smiles warmly and I nod my head excitedly/
Sunflowers.
Maybe some wild flowers as well to compliment the sunflowers.~

@Doyoung Kim (β) Those are actually cute names...I mean it's possible in having two names if you guys are having a hard time deciding on names * starts thinking quietly as I start making the dough for the mini tarts, once mixing the wet and dry ingredients together, starts kneading it deciding to make pecan tarts*
Then it is settled, I will look after Jiaheng until you notify me that my nephews are here. Maybe I can teach Jiaheng how to make flower crowns so he can give to his mama when he comes back. Any Flower you particularly want? * chuckles already thinking of a flower that you love since we were little*

@Taeyong Lee (β) Yeah... We haven’t really decided on names. I wanna lean more towards Chanwoo and Minjae.
Guess I need to consult with Dae about it.
/chuckles softly, starts setting the dough into the pan. Starts putting the pumpkin filling in the pan as well/
I’ll definitely call you over.
If you can please? Jiaheng misses you dearly and I’ll call you once I’m all done.

@Doyoung Kim (β) I want to know the official name for the boys though Doyoung, not the list~ aigoo so suspense.
* nods just leaning against the counter for a bit as I watch you laughing softly*
Make sure you invite me so I can see my nephews. If you want, I can look after Jiaheng while you and your mate settle in a den once you are in labor. We wouldn't wanna traumatize the little boy. I will keep him entertained by having him play with his cousins until you notify me through the pack bond that they have been delivered, then I can bring Jiaheng over to see his little brothers.

@Taeyong Lee (β) Jiaheng would cry a river if I ever go missing. So would my mate
/looks at you, laughing softly/
Yes yes.
We just have a list of names.

@Doyoung Kim (β) Exactly, how would Jiaheng react if his mama gets lost in the woods? Or even your mate?
*finish up mixing the wet ingredient and place it next to the pie dough you were flatting out on the pan*
Wait.. how many nephews am I having? Was it two?
* tilts my head a bit before preparing the ingredient to make the tarts*

@Taeyong Lee (β) /laughs softly when talking about the collar idea, proudly smiling I chuckle quietly. Winking at you playfully before rubbing my round belly/
Pftttt “please return Doyoung to the main pack. Thank you kindly” is what it’ll say.
/nodding my head slowly/
Right?
I came up with Minhyuk and Chanwoo.
Dae came up with Minjun and Minjae

@Doyoung Kim (β) Hmm I dont know If I will be able to locate you if you wear a little bell unless you are somewhere close. Haha maybe I might just keep that collar idea in mind, I will make sure to put the direction in bold words
*teases you jokingly and then shakes my head*
But seriously, if you do end up losing your way and got yourself lost, use the pack bond to communicate to any of us.
*nods and smiles when you mention the four names* such cute names

@Taeyong Lee (β) Ahaha you might have to put a little bell on me Hyung. Or a collar with my name and direction. In case someone finds me ahaha.
/smiles warmly as I look at you, sticking my tongue out at you before humming once I fully roll out the dough, I stop before settling it into the pan/
Mhm! We have four names: Minjae, Minhyuk, Chanwoo, and Minjun~

@Doyoung Kim (β) Being reminded with such memory makes me kinda concern on leaving you on your own.
* side eyes over at your direction as I squint a bit trying to tease you*
I dont wanna see this baby dongsaeng of mine getting lost or you might just give hyung a hurt attack and have me searching day and night.
*chuckles and decides to prepare the wet ingredient of the pumpkin so we can combine it later and put it in the oven*
You should do that.
* hums as I start mixing ingredients*
Say doyoung? Did you ever thought of a name for my nephews yet?

@Taeyong Lee (β) Heh sorry. I followed after one of them and I kind of just. Got injured in the process. It was scary. I didn’t know if I would’ve made it.
/pouts as I start kneading the dough, I look at you before chuckling/
Dork.
/sticks my tongue out at you playfully/
I’m gonna ask him.
See if he knows anything.

@Doyoung Kim (β) I did and you scared the crap out of me because I didnt see you anywhere. I searched everywhere even at our secret hideout and yet no sign of you anywhere.
*purse my lips as I leave the mug on the rack so it can dry, dries up my hand and goes next to you to help you with the ingredients*
At least they found you too because what would have happened to a fragile wolf without his best friend around dork.
*nudges your playfully and shrugs my shoulder*
To be honest, I wouldn’t know myself. *chuckles when you pout* aigoo i wonder, The peace keeper is a white coat wolf. I wonder if he is from the north as well.

@Taeyong Lee (β) I never thought about it.. But now that I think about it. Remember the night I was injured in the woods?? You couldn’t find me for three days. They did... I saw emerald eyes from one.. Maybe I am from the pack up north. Or at least descendant.
/nods softly, giggling happily as you hug me, washes my hands properly. I start preparing the dry ingredients/
Why would she be ashamed though??
They were gorgeous.
/pouts/

@Doyoung Kim (β) It may be obvious that you were related in the winter pack. Your wolf form is white, and I think I remember seeing your mom having almost a similar coat. Compared to the pack you grew up in, we have a more reddish tone fur.
* nods and your hair gently, approaches you for a bit to give you a hug happy to see you smile before taking the mug to bring it to the sink to wash*
I guess there might of been a reason why your mom never speaks about her past.
*turns on the faucet making sure to throw out the tea bag, starts washing the mug*

@Taeyong Lee (β) I always admired them. The pack way up north, they would sometimes come down for the solstice and I always had to at least see them. They were stunning.
/smiles, blinking as I try remembering anyone in my bloodline/
My mother and father never really talked about their family. Especially my mother. When I would ask she would always hit me... Maybe my ancestors were from the winter pack. I wouldn’t know.
/sighs a bit, nuzzling your hand happily I smile/
Mhm!
It was so nice and fragrant.
I’ll start making the pie dough~!

@Doyoung Kim (β) I nearly forgot about the winter pack having an icy blue color.
*nods and tilts my head at your direction* from your family try did you had anyone from the winter pack. I always remember the pack we group up in had gold or brown orbs. You were the only one with emerald color.
* smiles and lets you place the pack on your lower back, goes back and pets the top of your head*
If you are having a hard time, just take a rest okay. Dont push yourself. By the way, did you finish your tea? I can go wash it up?

@Taeyong Lee (β) Mhm. That cute boy of mine. Maybe his parents were from up north? I heard the winter packs all have ice blue eyes. Pftt silly. But yeah that’s fine. He misses you also,
/continues rubbing my lower back, nodding my head to what you have to say/
Thank you Hyung!
/looks around the cafe, smiling at your hard work. Hums softly, looking at you/
You are a lifesaver! Thank you!
/lifts my shirt a bit, thankful I was wearing loose maternity pants, I settle the pack where it is uncomfortable. I adjust the pants to keep the pack in place, tightening it a bit/
Hah~ a lot better.

@Doyoung Kim (β) Blue eyes? My.. now im curious myself. Jiaheng is a cutie actually. I might just steal him for the day and have an uncle and nephew bond.
*place what Im carrying down and turns to walk over to my office*
Hmm let me see if I do wait right here okay. I will be back in a bit.
* enters my office taking my key to unlock the locked drawers that had some important paper works and other items, pulls out the heating pad and close the drawer*
*comes back to you and hands it over*
Here you go, I hope it will make you feel better Doyounggie.

@Taeyong Lee (β) Oh my! That’s so adorable. I wonder how my baby boys parents looked like. For him to have one blue and brown eye. Sage is one lucky princess. Having Asher and Kyo. Jiaheng is such a sweet boy.
/continues rubbing my lower back/
Just a small pain.
More like a discomfort. Do we have any heating pads?

@Doyoung Kim (β) He does actually. I returned welcomed with sage opening his eyes having both Yugyeom and my eye colors.
*smiles and nods completely agreeing with you, grabs out the bowls to place it down. Starts mise en place all the necessary ingredients when making the tarts and the other section for the pie*
*notice you rubbing your lower back causing myself to have a slight sign of concern*
Does your back hurt?

@Taeyong Lee (β) Oh! That’ll be so much fun! Having the boys build sandcastles. I’ve heard from Nini that Sage also has heterochromia? Jiaheng will definitely be happy to have a cousin with his condition too.
/smiles warmly and I flinch a bit, rubbing my lower back. Nibbling on my lower lip/
I would love to help you make it~
Seasonal pies sound amazing.
