It was already nearing darkness when Baekhyun and Chanyeol decided to come back to where they parked their car. With Baekhyun bringing the sleeping Baekhee on his hand and Chanyeol gave a piggyback ride to Chanhee, they both intertwined their free hands while walking to the path that will lead them to the parking lot.

Needless to answer their questions, Baekhee and Chanhee agreed with no hesitations when Chanyeol asked if they wanted to stroll in Lotte World. Being the older one, Chanhee didn't asked his father, Baekhyun, about Chanyeol. Meanwhile Baekhee, she kept on bugging Chanyeol and Baekhyun through the whole ride towards their destination but Baekhyun will just tell her that instead of bombarding Chanyeol questions, why won't she just sleep and save energy, to which the younger girl just nodded and opted to shut her mouth up.

"Thanks for today, Yeol. The kids surely had fun," Baekhyun broke the silence by holding Chanyeol's free hand while the other one is gripping on the steering wheel.

"You don't have to thank me, Baek. That's my duty as their father. I should be the one saying sorry for not being able to do my paternal responsibilities to the kids and as well, my duties as your husband," Chanyeol smiled warmly at Baekhyun and again, he felt lost with the giant's stares.

"Chanyeol. . ." Up until now, Baekhyun still can't comprehend that he already have Chanyeol beside him again. Sure he misses the giant being at his side always but the thought of Jung Jae Bum's existence scares him. What if he's just letting Baekhyun and the kids to have a borrowed time with Chanyeol? What if one day, Jessica and her father will suddenly pop out, taking his husband away from him? Thoughts of being away from Chanyeol once again makes Baekhyun's breathing hitch. He didn't realized he's been shaking and sweating a lot not until Chanyeol parked the car in the roadside and started pinching his cheeks.

"Baek? Hey, Baek? Are you okay?" Baekhyun blinked thrice and his husband's worried face welcomed him after coming back to the real world. "What's wrong? Are you okay?"

Needless to answer, Baekhyun pulled Chanyeol for a hug, letting himself sob on the giant's broad chest. "C-Chanyeol. . ." He cries.

Chanyeol cooed his husband by soothing his back while mumbling assurance to him that he will never leave him again. "Listen to me, no one can tear us apart anymore, okay? Not when you already have me beside you. I'll never leave you whatever comes to us. We will survive the upcoming downfalls in our life together. That's how married couples are supposed to be, right?"

"What. . . What if they come back? What if Jae Bum and Jessica. . . Oh my god, Chanyeol," tears started brimming on Baekhyun's cheeks. Just by the thought of those names was enough to make his leg wobble in fear. Baekhyun already told Chanyeol everything from where it has started up to the part wherein he met the one who brought Chanyeol back to Korea and he wasn't surprised anymore on how the giant looked lost. They haven't seen a doctor yet again ever since Chanyeol sneaked out the hospital to have a check up if the amnesia is just temporary or permanent. Because why? Baekhyun can't even close his eyes, fearing not to see his husband the moment it opens once again.

Chanyeol hates himself for not being able to remember even a single thing. But one thing for sure is that, he will always be by Baekhyun's side no matter what happen and he will do everything just to repay the years he has been an irresponsible father to Chanhee and Baekhee and a husband to Baekhyun. "Shh. Stop worrying, for now, let's give ourselves a break. We deserve it, Baek. Specially you."

Another day has passed, Baekhyun woke up having his legs enveloped on a long pillow instead of his husband's physical figure so albeit that he hasn't adjusted yet due to the lengthy sleep, he stood up, not minding the way how he looked like. He felt like something blocked his throat that he wasn't able to vocalized his husband's name. Due to the building frustration, tears started rolling down his cheeks, needless to wear a footwear, he opened the door of their room and rushed himself towards the first floor of their house.

Baekhyun felt his world stopped revolving with the sight of Chanyeol, Sehun, and Jongin cooking together inside the kitchen. He saw in the wall clock that it's just five in the morning and it seemed like it's just the three of them already awake. He heard how Chanyeol giggles with the things Jongin and Sehun were telling him. Chanyeol on the other hand is giving all of his efforts just to pace up with everything that he can't remember and having these people around him were enough to fulfill his goal.

"Baek?" Baekhyun was suddenly frozen when Chanyeol called for his attention. Sehun and Jongin followed the giant's eyes and they met a Baekhyun who got his eyes puffy and someone who looked like who got his sleep disturbed. "Hey. . ." Worry rushed down on his face when he saw Baekhyun shed a tear, he placed back the kitchen utensil and pulled the apron away from his body, then walked himself towards his husband's location. "What's wrong?"

Baekhyun just shook his head as an answer. He is contented on looking at his husband's handsome face this near. Blame the greatest downfall he had in his life, aside from his parent's death, which was when he lost his husband and daughter that made him scared of every little thing.

"Do you want to sleep again?" Chanyeol asked like he was talking with a baby. Yes. A baby indeed. A baby in heart.

"N-no. I'm good," Baekhyun wiped his tear-stained cheek. "Why are you up so early?"

"Oh, that?" Chanyeol scratched the back of his nape. "I heard it's our wedding anniversary today so I asked Jongin and Sehun's help. I wanted to surprise you but guess I was the one who was surprised to see you awake thisㅡ" Chanyeol didn't got the chance to finish his words anymore when Baekhyun pulled him for a kiss. "ㅡhnggg."

Yesterday, when Baekhyun fell asleep due to the trip they had, Chanyeol chose to bring himself downstairs and there he saw Jongin and Sehun drinking some alcohols because it's weekends so he opted to join them. The two told him that it's their (Baekhyun and Chanyeol) wedding anniversary tomorrow so Chanyeol asked for some help and the two gladly offered helping hands. They were about to surprise Baekhyun with a breakfast in bed but they failed when the midget suddenly showed up with his uncombed and messy hair with his reddish nose. Instead of surprising the brunet, it's them who got surprised by him.

Baekhyun pulled from the kiss with a latching sound and drowned himself with Chanyeol's gazes. "Thank you so much for everything, Yeol."

"Happy wedding anniversary, Chanyeol and Baekhyun!" Kyungsoo greeted them and hugged Baekhyun. "I'm so happy for you, Baek. Always remember that you have us behind your back, okay?"

"Thanks, Soo," Baekhyun returned the hug and snuggled his face on the other's neck. "I'll always take that in my mind. I can't believe how time flies fast. One day, you hate me for making fun of you and then poof! You're now my other best friend aside from Sehun. Never did I thought that we'll reach this kind of friendship!"

"You always tell me that," Kyungsoo pouted. "Anyways, expect the unexpected, right?" Baekhyun nodded. "And for you, Chanyeol. . ." It still feels surreal for him to see that dumb grin only Chanyeol can suppress. "Don't leave Baekhyun again, okay? Or else I'll smack your head!"

Baekhyun already gave Chanyeol a heads up about Kyungsoo's attitude so he wasn't surprised that the other one has gone bitch once again. "Okay, okay. I'm scared you might hurt me a lot," he chuckled.

"Can we just skip this part and eat already? I'm starving," Jongin pouted to which they just laughed at and gave in.

"I can't believe I missed this," Chanyeol suddenly showed up beside Baekhyun who happened to excused himself from the feast and settled on sitting beside the fountain of their house.

"Miss what?" Baekhyun smiled and then gave his husband enough space to sit next to him. "Come on, join me here."

Chanyeol nodded and did what he was told. "Kyungsoo, Sehun, Jongin, Luhan, Baekhee, Chanhee. . . Specially, us. I can't believe I missed this for two years. I already wanted to understand myself but I can't. I can't even remember a single thing about the past. I'm scared that this thing may be permanent. I don't want to lose the memories we shared before, Baekhyun. I believe those memories were worth remembering when we're both dying together."

"I will always be at your side, Yeol," Baekhyun reassured.

"I know that, but I wanted to recover my memory already. I want to know you, the kids, Jongin, Luhan, Sehun, and Kyungsoo without giving too much burden on your sides. I wanted to be the old Chanyeol already. But how?" Chanyeol brushed his hands on his face. "Where will I start when I keep on coming back to nothing?"

"We're not pressuring you, didn't we?" Chanyeol shook his head. "Then take your time, Yeol."

"You're not pressing me to do so, you know, I just wanted to know myself without others' help. I want to understand myself."

"Then ask me," Baekhyun held his hands, taking it away from the giant's face. "All you have to do is to ask me. Don't hesitate. I am your husband. I'll be always true to you."

"No, no," Chanyeol smiled warily. "I'll do this all by myself. This time, I have to stand up straight and strongly for our family. Let me handle this, Baek."

"Is that what you really want?" Understanding crossed Baekhyun's facial expression. Chanyeol nodded. "Okay, just always remember that Baekhyun is always here for Chanyeol, okay?"

"Okay. . ." Chanyeol did the math by intertwining their fingers. Baekhyun's fingers were perfectly fitted on his like it was destined to be the one filling those gaps on his own.
