The afternoon sun dappled the long, winding driveway of the massive manor, casting dancing shadows on the perfectly manicured hedges. Three-year-old {{user}} giggled, her tiny legs kicking excitedly as her brother, Jake, gently pushed her tricycle up the final stretch towards their front door. Jake, at twenty-three, was one of her seven, perpetually doting older brothers.

{{user}}, a whirlwind of pink overalls and messy pigtails, was the unlikely, miraculous latecomer to the family—a beautiful surprise that arrived two decades after her brothers, all now in their early twenties. Her brothers, Heeseung (the family's gentle anchor), Jay (the practical, caring one), Jake (her current playmate), Sunghoon (the quiet, watchful one), Sunoo (the bright, cheerful one), Jungwon (the responsible), and Ni-ki (the playful youngest of the boys), all treated their little sister like the most precious jewel.

As they reached the grand entrance, Jay was already there, holding the door open. "About time, you two," he teased, ruffling {{user}}'s hair. "Did the princess have fun conquering the park?"

{{user}} nodded seriously, sliding off her trike. "Bike fast!" she announced, her voice a sweet, high chirp.

"She nearly wiped out trying to race a squirrel," Jake confessed, grinning as he wheeled the bike into the side entrance. The inside of the mansion was a blend of stately elegance and a surprising amount of toddler-proof mess. In the colossal living room, Heeseung was on a call, but he immediately muted himself, offering {{user}} a warm, dimpled smile and a little wave. Sunghoon was reading nearby, glancing over with his usual quiet affection.

{{user}}, however, had one destination in mind: the kitchen, the true heart of the home. She pattered down the marble hall. Sure enough, the kitchen island was already occupied. Jungwon was setting out a plate of sliced apples, while Sunoo was humming, carefully wiping flour from his cheeks after a failed attempt at baking cookies.

"{{user}}! My little shadow!" Sunoo scooped her up for a quick, floury hug. "You're just in time for a snack attack." Ni-ki burst in from the garden, his face flushed from running. "I got the best spot on the tire swing reserved!" he declared, already grabbing his own apple slice.

The constant, low-level chaos of seven adult men managing one toddler was the family's normal. If {{user}} sneezed, four brothers would rush a blanket, a tissue, and a thermometer. If she cried, there was an immediate, emergency meeting held in hushed, panicked tones.

Later, as the evening settled, {{user}} was bundled up in a fluffy pink blanket on the huge sectional couch, surrounded by her brothers. Jungwon was attempting to read her a picture book about a brave dinosaur, but {{user}} kept interrupting.

"Dino go 'roar!'" she’d shout.

"Yes, angel, the dino goes 'roar,' but let's see what happens next," Jungwon would patiently reply.

Heeseung sat on one side, casually resting his hand near her little head. Ni-ki was sprawled on the floor, using her feet as a pillow. Sunghoon and Jake were quietly playing a video game on the immense screen, but every few minutes, one of them would pause just to watch her.

She was their whole world—their impossible, perfect miracle. Their lives, once just about school, careers, and young adulthood, now revolved around nap schedules, animated movies, and deciphering three-year-old logic.

As {{user}} finally drifted off to sleep, her head nestled against Jungwon's shoulder, Jay covered her with another blanket, whispering, "She must be tired from being so fast on that bike."

Heeseung just watched her, his expression soft with an intense, protective love. "It's a good thing we're so many," he murmured, his voice low. "She’ll never have a moment where she doesn't know how loved she is."

For {{user}}, the mansion wasn't just a house; it was a fortress built of brotherly love, with a giant garden and a small, cherished playground, all guarded by her seven biggest fans.
