I'll be waiting for you Minghao, I'll find you no matter what.

I open my eyes and look at the white ceiling, my blanket had fallen on the floor so I felt cold.

I look next to me but he wasn't there, I check the time and it is late in the morning.

I told him to wake me up although I got no work on Fridays. Working in the super market as a cashier isn't that much of a hard thing to do. He still wanted me to rest, he is so sweet.

I stayed in my bed for a couple of minutes before I got up. I smiled at the thought of what happened yesterday :3

We need to talk about it again, I think I've made up my mind. Yes, I am sure I want it.

I put on my socks, because I don't like my slippers, and head to the bathroom. As I was brushing my teeth, I hear a loud sound of shattered glass coming from the kitchen downstairs.

I got scared and jumped, accidentally swallowing some toothpaste. I coughed and finished as fast as I could.

"Is everything okay?"

I yell but no one replies.

What happened, did he got hurt?

I stepped out of my room, there was silence.

I walked down the stairs making sure there was nobody in the haul or living room. I shouldn't ask again , what if there was someone in the kitchen waiting for me? Wouldn't he hear me the first time I yelled?

I approach the kitchen doing small steps, I am trying to not breath very loud. I see the kitchen door is opened so I put my head in it and see.

There was a broken base on the floor, pieces of it were spread everywhere.

"What did you do!"

I yell at him, tilting my head to the right. He was holding two big pieces of it and was looking at me, trying to look cute but sad at the same time.

"It slipped from my hands! I-I am sorry.."

He says and places the pieces on the floor, gets up and comes closer to me.

"This won't work again Xu Minghao!"

I step behind as he streches his arms to grab my waist.

"That's what you said last night too"

He winks at me and I can't resist his hug.

"You scared me..I thought someone might have entered the house"

I say and try to calm down , I am still mad.

"Everything is fine, I promise I will clean up the mess"

Be says and squeezes me between his arms.

"I need to tell you something Minghao"

I take him from his hand and go to the couch, forcing him to sit.

"I thought about it a lot..And I agree with you"

I can see him as he smiles so bright, his eyes widen, his teeth are showing.
He looks like a happy little child that was just given chocolate to him.

"What?!Are you serious?"

He seems so hyped, he grabs me from my elbows and lean closer to me.

"Yes..I think we should do another child, there is no reason for us to not to.. Plus, Kermit might feel lonely in the future so-"

I didn't manage to finish my sentence and he cornered me on the couch and got on top of me.

He kissed me like a crazy man, he was so happy, smiling and kissing me at the same time.

"Mom"

We both stopped and turned our heads to the door. Kermit was crawling on the floor, as expected of a baby like him.

Thank god he is only one year old so he won't have any memories of this, hopefully.

"App-Appa"

he said again and we both started laughing. Minghao got up and walked towards him.

He picked him up and smiled at him, he too laughed especially when he threw him in the air a couple of times.  They were both very happy and so am I.

He is such a good father, I am glad it is him. We are ready for a second child, I am sure of it.

"He fell asleep so fast"

Minghao whispered and sat on the chair.

"That's nice"

I nodded and kept stirring the food. I was making vegetable soup, he said he wanted Kermit to get used to chinese food although I am not a big fan of it.

"Soo"

The excitement in his voice was very obvious, he got up and came behind me.

"How should we name it? Do you have any suggestions?"

He hugged me and placed his chin on my shoulder.

"If it is a boy I would like Chan or Junhui, sounds good, don't you think? Or should it be something  foreign?vLike Hos-"

Is he actually thinking names for the unborn-not even made- child of ours?

"Don't you think it is too early for this? We didn't even make it yet.."

"But! We should be always prepared for that. I am excited , can you not tell?"

He said and his hands moved under my belly button.

"Yeah that's pretty obvious"

I sighed.

"And why are you touching me there, I am not even pregnant!"

"Yet.."

He whispered playfully and continued.

"If it is a girl..Hmm Mira sounds nice!"

"Mira? What kind of name is this?"

I wonder, does he makes those names up? I've never heard of this.

"Dunno, it sounded nice to me"

He shrugged but I could tell he wanted to continue this conversation.

"I suggest we should eat for now. After we finish I will go buy some things for the weekend, since the stores will be closed"

I take out two bowls and place them on the table.
He sat down too, he didn't seem to be listening to me, all he was thinking of were probably names.

"Ah that's delicious Hana"

He said as he swallowed down what was left.

"Are you going to need my help?"

He asked me as always.

"No I am fine. Someone needs to be watching Kermit too, we can not leave him alone "

I said as I was cleaning the table.

"I could go for you, just write me a list"

He is always helping me around with the kid and the cleaning at the house. He is so kind, my heart is beating fast every time he shows his love and care to me.

It feels as if I fell in love with him just yesterday.

As if I met him yesterday..

Wait.

How did I meet him?

I can not remember.

How could I forget something like this?

"Is everything alright?"

He lowered his eyebrows and looked at me. How long have I been standing still, lost in my thoughts?

"I'll write the list for you, hold on a second"

I turned around and opened the drawer, taking a piece of paper and a pen.

But how did we meet?

"Why are you just standing there?"

Minghao looked at me awkwardly, I snapped out of it.

"So I need-"

He grabbed my wrist and turned me around to face me.

"What are you thinking about? Is everything alright?"

Ah he knows me so well. How am I supposed to tell him I don't remember the first day we met? He might get mad.
