Fluke was putting away the toys that was scattered all around the playroom when he felt his shirt being tugged softly.

He turned around, finding a little girl who was holding on he binky and sucking on her fingers.

"Ingfah, is your daddy still not here?" He asked softly, kneeling in front of the 4 years old girl. Ingfah shakes her head.

"It's okay baby girl, you can stay with me till your daddy come, okay?" This time the little girl nodded her head.

Fluke smiled and take the small hands into his and brought her to the kitchen.

He lifted her to one of the baby chair before popping her nose softly. "I'm going to get you something to munch on while we wait for your daddy."

Ingfah giggled and clapped her hands excitedly. Her vocabulary not that develop yet.

That was why Fluke talked a lot with her, to help her to start talking.

Fluke smiles and went through the fridge, rummaging for some snacks.

This wasn't anything new, Ingfah's parents always came up late to pick her up from the daycare. Hence, he's so accustomed to her even though she just enrolled less than 2 months ago.

He found some frozen fruit and a packet of juice. Perfect.

"Fwuit!" Ingfah exclaimed excitedly once she saw the bowl that her carer had in his hands.

"Yes, fruit!" Fluke replied smiling brightly. He put down the bowl in front of the baby girl and pulled a chair closer so he can sit closer to the girl.

They spent the next few minutes enjoying their time together in the kitchen. Fluke occasionally teaching Ingfah on her pronunciation.

He was doing the choo—choo train when he felt a presence by the kitchen entrance.

He turns his head and smile at the figure leaning against the pillar. "Hey there."

"Hi."

Fluke stood up and walked towards the man, his back facing the baby on the stool.

"You're home early." He said softly, arms going around the man who wound his arms around the small of Fluke's back.

"I missed you." The man replied, softly pecking on Fluke's cheeks, aware of the baby behind them.

"Om!" Both male chuckled at the loud exclaimed from the girl behind them.

"Hello there baby girl. You're still here." Ohm, the man who just came said. He walked towards the baby and ruffled her hair.

Fluke smile at the sight of his husband and the child.

Ingfah had gotten close not only with him, but his husband as she's always stayed behind longer than the other kids.

Ohm has also grown fond of the baby.

Using their own home as a day care has its on pros and cons. More to pros.

Although Fluke can only take 5 kids, it's still a handful to be taking care of 2-5 years old alone.

But he had always love kids and he found joy in being with them.

And Ohm is always a supporting husband, providing whatever he needs.

Usually, Fluke will be waiting for Ohm to return at 6 alone, but since Ingfah was enrolled in the day care, his small husband will always have company with him.

Something he find that he doesn't mind. He himself has grown attached to the little girl.

"Why don't you go change first?" Fluke said to his husband.

"Okay, promise me you'll still be here once I'm done?"

Fluke chuckled. "Silly. Where would I go? I belong to you."

Ohm smile, wrapping his arms around Fluke's waist, once again. "I love you."

"I love you too."
