Min Ji ended up in Jongho' arms, asleep. Yeosang was just smiling the entire time as he look at how cute Jongho and Min Ji are.

He can't just decipher how Min Ji's mother or Jongho's former partner leave these two. Jongho and Min Ji are the most precious human beings Yeosang has ever met.

"Sorry about her. She must have been so tired that she ended up sleeping." Yeosang just nodded at Jongho with a faint smile, understanding the situation and Jongho stroke some strands of his daughter's hair.

"Anyways, Mr. Choi, don't worry about the bill because I am going to pay it. I took Min Ji all the way here so might as well pay the bill." Yeosang smiled and took the bill from the waiter before Jongho could argue with it.

"Shall we go?" Yeosang asked. Jongho thanked him once again and attempted to get his and his daughter's bag yet he failed. Yeosang let out a giggle and went to Jongho. "Let me." Yeosang took the bags as they both went out of the chicken restaurant.

Afterwards, Jongho seemed to be waiting for a cab but Yeosang tapped his shoulder. "Mr. Choi, I suggest to take the both of you home since there are no taxis or cabs to pass by around this area."

"Ah, it's fine. There's no need for you to do that," Jongho tried to decline Yeosang's offer but Yeosang shook his head, "It's really fine. It might be dangerous around too since among the three of us, I know this place very well."

Jongho tried again but Yeosang started to drift away from them with the bags and Yeosang started to walk towards a car. Jongho just sighed when he saw Yeosang entering the car and starting the engine.

The car soon moved and it stopped in front of Jongho. Rolling the car's window down, Yeosang peeked, "Hop in and gently place Min Ji at the backseat beside the bags. The backseat is empty so don't worry about Min Ji being uncomfortable."

Jongho nodded and did what Yeosang said. Jongho immediately sat at the passenger seat when he placed Min Ji at the backseat. Jongho even startled Yeosang a little when he opened the door, Yeosang really thought that Jongho will seat with his daughter.

"Okay, let's go." Jongho blurted after putting on his seat belt. The whole trip was very quiet as if they're headed to a haunted house or what. They'd only speak with each other when Jongho would tell Yeosang the direction.

It was very awkward and there were barely any eye contacts. When I said barely, there are still those secret glances. Time by time, Yeosang would look at Jongho through the mirror and vice versa, not until they will caught each other.

At last, they arrived in front of Jongho's apartment complex. When Yeosang saw that Min Ji is in Jongho's arms again, he took the bags and followed Jongho.

It was already dark inside the building when they entered. Dark that even when they do something no one would even notice. They rode the elevator in complete silence. Min Ji would move a little then go back to sleep again.

When they arrived in front of Jongho's door, there was a sudden awkwardness then Yeosang carefully put the bags he's holding on the floor. "Here, let me have Min Ji while you're opening the door." Jongho gave Min Ji to Yeosang carefully without waking her up.

From afar, they'd seem to be like a married a couple with a child. They'd seem really cute for one. But the fucked up society is not yet ready for that conversation yet.

After opening up the door, Jongho took Min Ji once again and entered their apartment. "Mr. Kang, you can leave the bags at the living room." Jongho said and Yeosang left the bags on the couch.

Jongho entered Min Ji's room and laid Min Ji on her bed. He went outside and met Yeosang there. "Once again, thank you." Jongho said and bowed at Yeosang. "It's fine. You're welcome. I'll get going."

"Ah, let me escort you down." Yeosang immediately shook his head and declined the offer. "No worries, Min Ji is safe here. At least let me do that for you after this day. I know Min Ji is sometimes hard to watch, that's why I am really grateful for you."

In the end, they both ended up being inside the elevator going down. That awkward atmosphere is back again as they left the building. "Have a good night, Mr. Choi."

Jongho nodded and watched Yeosang's car move. He smiled as he saw the car leaving and mumbling a, "Be careful on the road and have a good night too."
