Family

"Sean, can you not move around that quick?!" Seo-Joon could no longer hide the annoyance in his voice as he was chasing his son, Sean. It has been ten minutes since he took his bath, but he was still unable to get him dressed up for school.

"Appa cannot catch me! Appa cannot catch me!" Sean taunted, sprinting from one couch to another.

Seo-Joon could only shave a hand across his face in exasperation "Maybe we should just wait for your mom," he groaned, massaging his temples.

"Eh? Not ready yet?" Quinn asked the moment she stepped out of the bathroom. She was loosening the adjustable belt of her bathrobe and crossed her arms, eyeing Seo-Joon who is already dressed for work.

"Hon, I'm sorry," he turned to look at his grimacing wife, pouting. "I really can't control our son. He doesn't really like me."

Quinn chuckled. "Hon, that's how kids are," she walked near him and tapped his cheek. "Sean loves you, of course. You're his father. Maybe he's just—"

"Stubborn as you?" Seo-Joon tittered, seemingly mocking his wife.

"That's a matter-of-factly, I can't even argue," Quinn chuckled. "Now get yourself ready instead, Doctor Oh. You will have another long day today," her voice suddenly dropped. "And can you not brush your hair or wear any perfume? Will that make you less attractive?" She asked. "No? How about you wear just fair brown contact lenses on?"

Seo-Joon chortled. He faced Quinn properly and held her hands. "Honey, I told you; I am yours and only yours, okay? You trust me, right?" His brows rose.

"Of course, hon. I trust you with all my heart. It's just that, I don't trust them, most especially your patients who keep on pretending they have heart diseases just to see you, for the love of—," Quinn grimaced, eyes twitching in vexation. Her breathings became deeper and Seo-Joon had to drop her shoulders to calm her down.

"Relax, no matter how many of them in the line, you will still be my one and only choice."

"Wow! That sounds somewhat insulting," Quinn said sardonically and Seo-Joon laughed.

"Why? Do you like me to stay home and be a house husband instead? For your information, Mrs. Oh, I don't wanna let my queen work alone for this family. Not on my watch."

Quinn smiled, ruffling her husband's silky, white hair as she stare into his magical eyes. Seo-Joon Oh is truly a unique person. Astonishingly, he has been born with two rare genetic conditions which separate him from the rest: Albinism and Heterochromia Iridum.

The former is a condition that lessens the quantity of melanin pigment in the eyes, hair, and skin, while the latter makes a person's eyes in different iris colours. In Seo-Joon's case, his left eye is sky blue and his right eye is light brown.

His condition alone already makes him stand out among the crowd, but then, he is also extremely good-looking, smart, and talented. He can sing, dance, and play a lot of musical instruments. He even has his own fan base on social media and he's no celebrity, so Quinn personally thinks that trust is not the main issue.

"Alright, hon. But you'll still see me in your office from time to time, you get that?"

"Of course," Seo-Joon gave her a quick peck on her forehead. "I'll wait for you, okay?"

Quinn playfully gave him an informal salute. "Aye, sir."

"Hahaha that's cute. I love you, honey," he turned against his heel to look at Sean who's already lying down on his stomach on the couch inside their room. "And you too, buddy. Take care of eomma, okay?"

"Ne, appa!" Sean playfully raised a thumb up.

"Geez haha," he mumbled.

"I love you, too, honey. Take care."

"I will," Seo-Joon took his coat on the coat rack and left.

After taking good care of Sean, Quinn immediately drove him to school. She manages her own famous restaurant, so she owns her time, unlike Seo-Joon who is a public servant; he needs to be at work in a specific allotted time. Medicine is his passion and no one is entitled enough, not even Quinn herself, to tell him what to do.

"Eomma, annyeong!" Sean beamed, waving his mom goodbye with both hands.

"Sean, annyeong!" Quinn also did the same as she watches her son turn against his heel, and walked inside the gates with one of their maids.

She fixed her peach coat resting above her shoulders as she stood up straight. The white Grecian Elegance top she's wearing underneath matched her peach pencil skirt bottoms and white knee high boots.

She left her sleek fine-layered hair down with a white stylish cat eye glasses placed on top of her head.

Her eyes dropped on the gold watch around her right wrist.

6:30 AM, the time read.

"Thirty minutes left," Quinn muttered. "I can still make it."

"That's Dr. Oh's wife. No wonder he married her."

"Yeah! She looks so young and gorgeous."

Quinn's brows twitched and a grin curved on her cherry lips. As soon as she turned to look at the three women talking meters away from her, the grin plastered on her face a while ago evaporated into an innocent smile.

"Omo! She's looking at us," one of the women gasped almost in a shout while the other two are trying to stop her from being so noticeable.

Quinn smiled to them for the last time before heading back to her car. A sigh of relief escaped her lips the very moment she stepped inside.

She took her press powder out of her expensive white trapeze purse to check her makeup and added more to make herself alluring, but not to the extent as she is planning to drop by the hospital to where Seo-Joon is working to check what kind of patients her husband have this time.

She wants to look her best every time she visits to intimidate the women who kept on tailing Seo-Joon despite them knowing the gentleman is already married.

Quinn parked her black Ferrari Laferrari beside Seo-Joon's silver Gordon Murray. Truly, the two are living a simple life as a couple, but they have a thing with cars that most people knew about.

"Oh! Thy highness Mrs. Quinn Oh is finally here," Dr. Jonathan Abad, one of Seo-Joon's colleagues, greeted her when she passed by a nurse's station.

"Hey, doc," Quinn winked, flipping her long hair.

"Woah! You looked stunning, Mrs. Oh," Sherry, a nurse, had to bend over the counter to look at Quinn who cat walked her way towards Seo-Joon's office.

"As always and as I should be, love," she smirked before knocking the door thrice and entered, leaving the people who saw her stunned by her remarkable presence.

Her eyes instantly squinted when she saw a woman whom she thinks in her twenties; she's sitting in front of Seo-Joon. Seeing Quinn's reaction, he giggled, shaking his head.

The two seems to be having only a patient-practitioner conversation, so Quinn behaved herself on the couch a little farther to where the two are. Seo-Joon's office is quite spacious and extremely white—everything's white; the floor, the ceiling, the curtains, the furniture—everything—including him, so Quinn had to wear her glasses on.

She crossed both of her arms and legs, and looked straight to the woman which kept Seo-Joon from chuckling every time his eyes met hers behind her tainted glasses. He could clearly tell that his wife's already cursing the woman to death, so he had to end the session as soon as possible.

"Thank you so much, Doctor. I'll come back as soon as possible—oh," the woman took a step back when she saw Quinn cocking a brow. "Good morning, Mrs. Oh. I'm sorry I didn't notice you right away."

Quinn's lips thinned and stood up, arms still crossed. "Apology accepted. Now, if you have nothing else to do here, you may leave. I still have important matters to talk with my husband," her voice remained flat and emotionless.

To stop himself from laughing, Seo-Joon had to cover his mouth with one hand. He was only standing behind the woman who immediately excused herself outside the office. The moment she's gone, she removed her glasses.
