EPILOGUE

Taehyung was washing his hand after using the lavatory. He checked out his make-up one last tme before going out. As he opened the lavatory door, a brief and sudden turbulence hit the plane causing him to fall forward.

"Whoa, careful there, Mr. Kim. We don't want anything to happen to you and this little boy here." Jungkook said as he held Taehyung's belly.

"Is this a habit of yours, Captain Kim? Waiting outside the lavatory to catch people?" Taehyung asked as he placed his arms around Jungkook's neck.

"Only the gorgeous ones." Jungkook teased.

Taehyung glared at his husband and hit his chest.

"Kidding, love. Only you. I knew you were inside as I went to your seat to check on you and the kids." Jungkook said as he pecked on his husband's pouting lips.

"You'd better be. Never mess with a pregnant me or else you'd feel my wrath." Taehyung said and Jungkook chuckled.

"You guys okay back there? Are the two behaving?" Jungkook asked.

"Yes. Surprisingly, they seem to be a natural at flying...never cried nor threw a fit. We should do this more often." Taehyung said.

"It might be different for a long-haul flight though." Jungkook said.

"Well, we'll see. Now, go get your ass back to the cockpit." Taehyung said.

"Oooh, I like how you said ass and cock in that sentence." Jungkook teased again.

"Kooook!" Taehyung said playfully smacking his husband's head.

Jungkook laughed and kissed Taehyung before going back to the flight deck, while the latter went back to his seat. He found Jin carrying a sleeping Kumo who is now two years old, while Haneul was busy watching a Disney movie.

"What happened? He was just awake when I went to the lavatory." Taehyung asked.

"I dunno, he made grabby hands and I carried him. I sang him a lullaby and it knocked him out." Jin said.

Taehyung giggled as he took Kumo from his hyung.

"I wish you'd fly all the time with them, I miss spending time with these two." Jin said.

"I'm glad you got transferred to short haul flights though. At least we see you more often now than before." Taehyung said.

"Me too. I might retire soon though as Namjoon and I are planning to adopt." Jin said.

"That's wonderful, hyung! Our family's getting bigger." Taehyung said.

"I give credit to you and Jungkook for that." Jin said, giggling.

"Hey, Mi-so noona and Hye-Win are pregnant too." Taehyung said defensively.

"Not for the third time." Jin said.

Taehyung playfully slapped Jin's arm and went back to his chair with a sleeping Kumo in his arms.

Haneul looked at her eomma and saw Kumo with her. 

"Eomma eomma, wemove pwease." Haneul said referring to her seatbelt.

Taehyung unbuckled it for her.

"And where are you going young lady?" Taehyung asked.

"I wanna be wid eomma too." Hannie said.

Taehyung shifted Kumo to his left side before carrying Haneul with his right hand.

"Good thing your eomma is ambidextrous." Taehyung said.

"What ish ambistrous eomma?" Haneul asked and Taehyung laughed.

"It's ambidextrous sweetheart. It means I can use both my left and right hand to write or draw." Taehyung said.

"Oh, wike Hannie?" Haneul innocently asked.

"Yes, you got that from me." Taehyung said as he stood up and carried both babies. As was about to go find Jin to help him with Kumo again, Namjoon approached him.

"Hey, you need a hand on Kumo? I can take him first while he's sleeping." Namjoon said.

"Yes, please! Thank you, hyung." Taehyung said as he handed him Kumo.

"Can we just adopt him? He'll still be a Kim." Namjoon joked and Taehyung laughed at his hyung.

"We can just adopt you and Jin hyung then live with us instead." Taehyung said.

"No need for that. We bought the house beside you. So, we will be neighbors soon and you can't sneak away from me anymore." Namjoon said.

"For reals, hyung? That's so great! Did you hear that Hannie? Jin eomma and Joon appa will be our neighbors!" Taehyung excitedly said.

"Sweep ovew!!!" Haneul shouted and clapped her hand.

Taehyung and Namjoon looked at Haneul and was amazed at her vocabulary.

"I guess she got the context right." Namjoon said.

"Future writer, maybe?" Taehyung giggled.

"What's going on here?" Jin asked as she heard Haneul shriek.

"Taeh, wait —" Namjoon was going to stop Taehyung but he was too late.

"Hyung told me that we will be neighbors soon." Taehyung said.

Jin's eyes went wide and glared at Namjoon.

"I told you it was going to be my surprise." Jin said.

"Sorry, jagi. Slip of the tongue." Namjoon sheepishly smiled at Jin.

"I cannot with you, Kim Namjoon. If you're not breaking stuff, you're spoiling secrets. I had it all planned out. I was going to bake you a Strawberry Shortcake on the day we move in and knock on your door just like a new neighbor would and tell you that we've moved in at the house beside you. But, I can't do that anymore, can I? Because someone spoiled my plan. Aish, Namjoon don't talk to me until I decide to talk to you." Jin rambled and walked away.

"Okay, that didn't go too well." Namjoon said.

"You should've started our conversation with, I'm gonna tell you something, but don't tell Jin that I told you, hyung. I'm sorry, didn't know it was a secret." Taehyung said apologetically.

"Not your fault. Don't worry about it, we will be in Japan for five days anyway so by the time we get back to Korea, he has already missed me by then. It would be easier for me to sweet talk my way to forgiveness." Namjoon said.

Taehyung laughed and went back to his seat with Haneul.

"Eomma, wews Appa?" Haneul asked.

"He's driving the plane, Haneul. Remember your bedtime storybook about airplanes? Dada is the pilot or the captain of the plane." Taehyung said.

"Wily, eomma?" Haneul said with her big eyes just like her eomma. "Can I fwy a pwane too?"

"Sure. When you get older and that's what you want to do, then your appa and Ji-hoon halabeoji can teach you how to fly an airplane." Taehyung said.

"Habooji is piwot too?" Haneul asked.

"Yes, he's a pilot too." Taehyung said.

"Ooooh den, I wanna be a piwot and mawwy a piwot too." Haneul said and Taehyung was surprised at what she said.

"Do you know what marry means?" Taehyung asked.

"Yesh. Uncwe Jimin shaid dats wat you and appa did when I thwew fowers on the fwoow and I watch you and appa kish and hug. I want to mewwy appa too." Haneul said.

Taehyung laughed out loud. "But, appa is married to eomma. You can't marry appa too."

"Can't mewwy two pipow?" Haneul asked.

Taehyung was at awe at her questions. But, decided to answer all of them truthfully and in simple words that she can understand.

"Yes, Hannie. You can't marry two people. You have to choose and marry who you love the most and who you want to be with to be happy ever after." Taehyung said.

"Hmmm....sho I can mawwy Kumo?" Haneul asked.

"No, because he's your brother. You have to marry someone that's not in our family." Taehyung said.

Haneul thought for a while.

"Eomma, can we caw uncwe Yoongi?" Haneul asked.

"Huh? Why do you want to call him?" Taehyung asked.

"Hannie wil ashk uncwe Yoongi to mewwy me." Haneul said.

Taehyung laughed even harder this time.

"Oh, Hannie, my little angel. You make eomma so happy." Taehyung said as he hugged Haneul tight.

At that moment, the seatbelt sign began to light up and a ding was heard.

"Okay, Hannie, do you see that light? When it's turned on, that means you have to go back to your seat and put your seatbelt on. Is that okay?" Taehyung said and Hannie nodded.

Taehyung helped her with her seatbelt and Haneul patiently waited for what's about to happen next.

"Flight crew, be ready for descent." Jungkook said over the PA system.

"Dat's my appa!" Haneul yelled and everyone in the first class deck laughed, including her eomma and Jin.

Taehyung buckled his own seatbelt and kept an eye on Haneul. He saw how patient and independent his daughter was as the latter took the earphones of the inflight entertainment and just silently watched again.

Twenty minutes later, the plane landed and Haneul wasn't even bothered when the plane touched down. She just kept her eyes on the screen. Taehyung was so proud of her.

"Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have reached Narita International Airport. Please remain seated until the seatbelt signs are off and the flight crew gives the go signal to disembark.

Thank you for flying the first ever international flight of Cypher JJM Airways, flight THV1230. On behalf of first officer Mark Tuan, all the flight crew, my husband Kim Jeon Taehyung and our two children who are also in this flight with me today, this is your Captain and CEO Kim Jeon Jungkook wishing you a safe stay here in Tokyo, Japan. Let me also leave you with this advise, I recommend for you to keep your eyes, heart and mind open in flight as you'll never know if, just like me, you'd Fly to Fall deeply in love with someone in flight. Have a good day everyone."

All the passengers in flight clapped, laughed and cheered with the Captain's announcement. They were honored and excited to find out that the famous young CEO Kim Jeon Jungkook was their pilot for the day and that Vante was also in the flight. Most Koreans know them as they're the famous power couple of South Korea.

Meanwhile, Taehyung couldn't help but gush over his husband's sweet message. Their two chuldren, however, were still oblivious as to how famous their parents are. They were just two toddlers, who enjoyed the sweets, snacks and cartoons in flight.

As the passengers disembarked, Taehyung, the kids and Namjoon stayed in their seats, waiting for Jungkook to finish his job of seeing the passengers off.

Ten minutes later, Jungkook came to meet them.

"Appa!!" Haneul said as she squirmed her way out of her seat. Jin helped remove her seatbelt earlier.

Jungkook crouched down to carry Haneul.

"Appa, I wanna be a piwot too." Haneul said.

"Really?" Jungkook asked.

"Uhuh. And I wiw mewwy Uncwe Yoongi." Haneul said with a giggle.

"What?!" Jungkook exclaimed and then looked at Taehyung who was laughing at what she said again.

"Okay angel, let's talk about that some other time. For now, let's enjoy our trip first and go see Disneyland, okay?" Jungkook said and Haneul nodded excitedly.

Taehyung carried her bag and walked towards the two. Jungkook quickly took the bag from Taehyung and carried it for him.

"Thank you, hubby." Taehyung said as he placed an arm around Jungkook's waist while the latter placed his around Taehyung's shoulder.

"You feeling okay?" Jungkook asked, slightly worried for his pregnant husband.

"I'm perfectly fine love." Taehyung said.

They all walked out of the plane with Namjoon behind them, carrying Kumo who was still sleeping. 

"I think he has been spending too much time with Yoongi hyung. Hyung's sleeping habit has rubbed off on Kumo." Taehyung said.

"Hannie too. See, she even wants to marry him now apparently." Jungkook said with a chuckle.

"I'll tell you about our conversation later. She had so many questions earlier...questions that a normal two year old wouldn't probably ask." Taehyung said.

"What do you expect, there's really nothing normal about our family considering how we started and all." Jungkook said.

"You have a point there. I still can't believe I dated a pilot." Taehyung said.

"Well, Mr. Kim, thank you for giving this pilot a chance." Jungkook said.

"You had me with your two-finger salute, Captain Jeon." Taehyung said.

"I thought you got lost in my eyes?" Jungkook teased.

Taehyung pinched Jungkook's side, making the latter jerk and chuckle.

"Sorry for interrupting your moment, but this little one is awake and is asking for his eomma." Namjoon said.

"Thank you, hyung. Come to eomma, you sleepyhead." Taehyung said as he took Kumo from Namjoon.

"Taeh, the doctor said refrain from carrying the babies." Jungkook said.

"She did?" Namjoon asked as he glared at Taehyung.

"Why, hyung? What did he do this time?" Jungkook asked.

"He was carrying both of them at the same time during the flight." Namjoon said.

"But, it's hard to say no to them. Besides, I don't do it everyday." Taehyung said in his defense.

"That's the last time, love. Okay? Four months to go, and you can carry the three of them at the same time if you can. But, for now, let's follow the doctor's orders please?" Jungkook said.

"I'll transfer Kumo to his stroller as soon as we get it from the carousel, okay?" Taehyung said as he pecked Jungkook's lips and strutted away.

"Aish! He really can be hardheaded sometimes." Namjoon said.

"And it's frustrating as I find it adorable." Jungkook said.

"You're a goner, Jungkook." Namjoon said as he patted the younger's shoulder.

"Im a gonew fow Uncwe Yoongie." Haneul suddenly said.

Namjoon and Jungkook laughed.

"Let's see what your Uncle Jimin has to say about that." Jungkook said as he playfully and gently pinched his daughter's cheek.

"Jungkook!" Taehyung yelled from afar and Jungkook looked at him.

Taehyung threw him a two-hand salute with matching wink.

Jungkook laughed hard at Taehyung's action.

"What was that all about?" Namjoon asked.

"It's just Taehyung being Taehyung." Jungkook said as he gazed at his beauitful husband who was having a precious moment with their son.

Jungkook walked faster and stopped beside Taehyung.

Taehyung looked at him with his eyebrows raised as Jungkook was just staring at him.

"What?" Taehyung asked.

Jungkook touched Taehyung's chin and gave him a brief but heartfelt kiss.

"What was that for?" Taehyung asked as they pulled away.

"I just love you so much, Taehyung. Thank you for making me the happiest husband and father I could ever be." Jungkook said.

"So, random. But, I love it and I love you too, my hubby. So so so much." Taehyung said as he kissed his husband again.

"Otay, nuff." Haneul said with a giggle.

The couple laughed through the kiss before pulling away.

"Let's go, Mr. Kim." Jungkook said while intertwining their fingers together.

"Right beside you, Mr. Kim." Taehyung said.

And they lived every moment, happily ever after. 💜
