Ariana, Bella, and Hana sat comfortably in the lush garden of the mansion, the fragrant blooms surrounding them providing a picturesque backdrop to their afternoon tea. The sun shone brightly, casting a warm glow over the vibrant flowers, while a gentle breeze rustled the leaves overhead. In Hana's lap, two-month-old Yuna cooed softly, her tiny fingers wrapping around her mother’s hand as she gazed up at her with wide, curious eyes.

Ariana took a sip of her chamomile tea, relishing the calming warmth it brought. “This is the perfect way to spend a Saturday afternoon,” she said, glancing around at the garden’s colorful flowers. “I can’t believe how beautiful everything is. You’ve really outdone yourself with this garden, Bella.”

Bella smiled proudly, glancing around at the blooms. “Thank you! I’ve always loved gardening. It’s like therapy for me,” she replied, a soft smile gracing her lips as she looked at her sister and her niece. “And it’s nice to have you both here to enjoy it.”

Hana chuckled, gently bouncing Yuna in her lap. “I can’t believe how much she’s grown already. Just two months old, and she’s already taking over our lives.”

Ariana laughed, leaning forward to get a better look at Yuna. “She’s perfect. I still can’t believe you and Namjoon are parents now. How’s the transition been?”

Hana sighed, her eyes sparkling with joy as she gazed at her daughter. “It’s a lot of work, but honestly, it’s the most rewarding thing I’ve ever done. Namjoon has been amazing, stepping up to help with everything. It’s like he transformed overnight.”

Bella raised an eyebrow, intrigued. “Transformed? What do you mean?”

Hana took a deep breath, reminiscing about the early days of her relationship with Namjoon. “When we first got married, he was so cold and distant. I felt like I was always reaching out, trying to connect with him. But after Yuna was born, something changed. He became this incredible father, attentive and caring. It’s like he found his purpose.”

Ariana smiled knowingly, a light teasing tone creeping into her voice. “It sounds like he’s finally realizing what a catch he has in you.”

“Or maybe he just needed a little nudge in the right direction,” Bella chimed in with a playful grin, recalling her own experiences. “You know, sometimes the best way to get someone to change is to show them exactly what they’re missing.”

“Oh? Do tell!” Ariana leaned in, her interest piqued. “What about your experience with Jungkook?”

Bella chuckled, shaking her head as she remembered the whirlwind of events that had led to their relationship. “Well, let’s just say our initial meeting wasn’t exactly conventional. The day he planned to kidnap me, I decided to turn the tables and kidnapped him instead.”

Ariana’s eyes widened in disbelief. “You kidnapped Jungkook? The King of the Mafia? What were you thinking?”

“I was thinking that I needed to have some fun and that he could use a lesson in humility,” Bella replied with a smirk. “It was a wild ride, to say the least. I made him do some ridiculous things before he finally started to see me as more than just the Mafia Queen. Eventually, I think we both realized that we had feelings for each other.”

“Wow, talk about a plot twist!” Ariana exclaimed, laughter bubbling from her lips. “So you basically tortured him until he fell in love with you?”

“Not quite torture, more like a crash course in humility,” Bella defended, though she wore a playful grin. “But hey, sometimes you need to shake things up a little, right?”

Hana joined in the laughter, gently stroking Yuna’s hair. “And here I thought my experience was wild. You’ve got us all beat!”

Ariana leaned back in her chair, her expression thoughtful as she considered her sister’s journey. “It’s amazing how love can change a person, isn’t it? It’s like you both found your balance with your partners.”

“Exactly!” Bella said, her eyes sparkling with enthusiasm. “And it’s so important to communicate. I think that’s what made all the difference for me and Jungkook. Once we started talking openly, everything just clicked into place.”

Hana nodded in agreement. “Communication is key. I remember how unsure I felt at first, but Namjoon made it easy for me to share my feelings. It helped us grow stronger as a couple.”

Ariana smiled warmly at them, feeling a surge of gratitude for their support and friendship. “I hope I can find that kind of connection someday. I’ve been through so much, but I want someone who can really see me, you know?”

“You will, Ari. You’re an amazing person,” Bella reassured her, leaning closer. “Just give it time. And don’t be afraid to open up when the right person comes along. You deserve that happiness.”

Ariana nodded, her heart swelling with hope. “Thanks, Bella. That means a lot.”

As they continued sipping their tea and chatting, Yuna gurgled happily, capturing their attention. Hana looked down at her daughter, her heart filled with love. “I can’t wait to see how much you grow, little one. I hope you inherit your mother’s strength and your father’s heart.”

“Speaking of hearts,” Ariana said, shifting her gaze to Bella. “Have you thought about how you’re going to handle things with Jungkook now that you’re officially together? What’s next for you two?”

Bella paused, a hint of seriousness crossing her face. “Honestly, I think we’re still figuring it out. We’re both leaders in our own right, and balancing our roles can be challenging. But I know we’ll find a way.”

Hana leaned in, her expression thoughtful. “It’s all about teamwork. You and Jungkook are both strong-willed. Just remember to support each other.”

“Exactly,” Ariana added, her voice firm. “You two make a great team. Just keep communicating and stay true to yourselves.”

The conversation flowed effortlessly, the three women bonding over their experiences, hopes, and dreams. They shared laughter, tears, and encouragement as they navigated their unique paths.

As the sun began to set, casting a golden hue over the garden, Ariana felt a sense of peace wash over her. Surrounded by her sister and Bella, she realized that she was not alone in her journey. Together, they were strong, resilient, and ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead.

“Let’s make a pact,” Hana said suddenly, her eyes sparkling with mischief. “We’ll always support each other, no matter what. Sisters before misters!”

Ariana and Bella exchanged glances, their faces breaking into wide grins. “Sisters before misters!” they echoed in unison, raising their teacups in a toast.

As they clinked their cups together, laughter echoed through the garden, blending with the gentle rustling of leaves. In that moment, they knew that no matter where life took them, they would always have each other’s backs, navigating the complexities of love, family, and everything in between together.
