Heeseung always joked that the universe had played the funniest prank on him.
Born only minutes apart, but somehow capable of making twice the amount of chaos every single day.
By the time they were five, the living room looked less like a family home and more like a miniature construction site. Plastic race tracks snaked across the floor. Monster trucks sat upside down on the couch. Buckets of LEGO bricks threatened everyone's bare feet. Superhero capes hung off dining chairs. Tiny soccer balls, basketballs, footballs, even foam swords, occupied nearly every corner.
Then, five years later...
Their baby sister arrived.
The princess everyone had secretly been waiting for.
"She's gonna play soccer with us," one twin had proudly declared the day she came home.
"No," the other argued. "She's gonna race cars."
Mostly because she had inherited every single toy the twins had ever owned.
At twelve months old, she knew exactly where the basket of Hot Wheels lived.
Dump the entire thing upside down.
Then she sits happily, surrounded by tiny cars, humming to herself.
Roll it across the floor.
She loved knocking down towers made of giant LEGO bricks.
She loved bouncing foam balls.
She loved making Batman and Spider-Man kiss because she had absolutely no understanding of action figures.
The twins thought it was hilarious.
The other clutched his head dramatically.
Their baby sister squealed.
Then, they smashed the superheroes together again.
Every afternoon, the twins insisted on taking her outside.
Their prized possession was a bright red battery-powered Road Truck Electric Toy Car.
The brothers would carefully buckle their little sister into the passenger seat first.
One twin climbed into the driver's seat.
The other squeezed beside him.
Their sister clapped both hands.
The truck lurched forward at an impressively slow three miles per hour.
The twins made exaggerated engine noises.
Their sister copied them.
Neighbours smiled every single time.
Because those boys drove like they were transporting royalty.
If the truck hit the tiniest bump,
If she dropped her stuffed bunny,
If the sun were in her eyes,
"Turn around! She's squinting!"
Their little sister had no idea how adored she was.
She even had her own car.
A tiny pink-and-red Cozy Coupe.
The twins treated it with almost military respect.
Even Heeseung wasn't allowed to move it without permission.
One Saturday morning, Heeseung decided the family needed groceries.
The twins immediately wanted snacks.
Their little sister sat happily in the shopping cart.
Her chubby legs kicked back and forth while she hummed.
They passed the toy aisle.
Her mouth formed a tiny, perfect "O."
Heeseung noticed immediately.
She slowly lifted one finger.
Not at the building blocks.
An entire aisle filled with pink.
Stuffed bunnies wearing bows.
It was like she'd discovered another planet.
Her breathing got faster.
Her tiny fingers opened and closed.
She leaned so far forward in the shopping cart that Heeseung had to hold her little waist.
Like she'd never seen anything so magical before.
Their house was almost filled with hand-me-down toys from her brothers.
Not because anyone avoided buying girl toys.
She'd never shown interest before.
Now she looked absolutely enchanted.
Her little hand reached toward a fluffy pink bunny.
Then toward a princess doll.
Then toward a tiny tea set.
The twins watched her quietly.
"I don't think she's ever seen this many girl toys."
The other looked around the aisle.
Those had always surrounded her.
She made the tiniest distressed sound.
Because she couldn't touch all of them at once.
One hand reached for a unicorn.
Then another stuffed animal.
Tiny panicked babbles spilled out.
Her brows pinched together.
She looked ready to cry from pure overwhelm.
Heeseung's heart absolutely shattered.
He lifted her from the cart.
Immediately, she buried her face into the giant pink bunny she'd been staring at.
Like she'd waited her whole little life for something soft and pink.
The other twin interrupted.
Both boys nodded without hesitation.
"She's never had to choose before."
"Everything she has is ours."
"Our old stuff."
They weren't complaining.
The baby looked between everyone.
Then, she reached toward a tiny princess doll.
She was trying so hard to ask.
"Which do you want, baby?"
She answered by patting every single toy within arm's reach.
The twins burst into laughter.
"She wants the whole aisle."
Heeseung sighed dramatically.
He looked at his daughter.
Who was now kissing the bunny's nose.
"...I have absolutely no self-control."
The shopping cart no longer contained groceries.
The groceries had somehow become secondary.
She sat in the middle of the living room.
Almost like she couldn't believe any of it belonged to her.
The twins sat beside her.
One brother picked up a tiny teacup.
The other twin wore the plastic tiara.
Their sister giggled so hard she fell backward.
Batman was drinking imaginary tea.
Spider-Man rode the unicorn.
The race cars are parked outside the princess's castle.
The LEGO people became royal guards.
Heeseung carried his sleepy daughter upstairs.
She refused to let go of the pink bunny.
Her tiny fingers were wrapped tightly around one floppy ear.
Half asleep, she hummed softly.
She blinked up at him with heavy eyes.
"If you even look at something..."
"Daddy's probably already putting it in the cart."
The twins overheard from the hallway.
The baby opened one sleepy eye.
Then hugged the bunny tighter.
Her brothers kissed both of her cheeks before climbing into their own room.
She answered the only way she knew how.
And one quiet little babble.
It wasn't a real word yet.
But everyone in the house understood exactly what she meant.
