Daddy For Hire || Ran Haitani

It's Official

You and Ran stood silently at the door. Staring at him dumbfoundedly, everything was not sinking into you. From his presence to what he just said that he volunteers to be the baby's father.

How did he know in the first place?

"I saw your tweet." As if reading your thought, he answered with a smile. You blinked at him still not processing everything that is happening. "I saw your tweet about looking for a father, and you sounded quite desperate. I happened to ask Mikey's sister, Emma on your whereabouts and it lead me here." He honestly explained, you looked into his eyes and you feel like he wasn't lying at all.

He noticed your still uneasiness, so he put a hand on your shoulder.

"Why don't we talk about it inside? And I can feel like your arms are getting numb by the looks of it." He said and he slightly pushed you inside your house and lock the door behind him.

You let him sit on your couch and battling with your mind if you wanted to sit beside him, until he pat the space beside him and motioning you to sit beside him. You walked beside him as you sit timidly beside him.

"Sir-"

"Please, just call me Ran." He said while looking into your eyes. He then looked at the baby and the baby reached out his short arms to Ran. He looks like he took a fond of Ran, which made Ran smiles.

"Ran, are you s-serious about that?" Then he looked back at your eyes and stare at it for a while. You saw his beautiful purple orbs staring straight at yours. You suddenly become self-conscious and decided to look at the baby, he chuckled and you saw him nods.

"Yes, I am serious about that. Besides, the baby likes me." He said and lean forward to you and the baby as he bump the baby's nose lightly.

"But, Ran." You started and gulped as he bring back his attention to you. "I don't have the money to pay you." You said and he laughed. You suddenly felt humiliated, he noticed your change of expression and he stopped then apologized.

He sat widely on the couch and looked at you.

"Come on, I don't really mean you have to pay me money." He said and you looked at him confused. He looked at you and stretched his arms to take the baby from your grasp. "I don't need money, Y/N. I have lots of it."

"Then what is your price?" You can't help but to ask.

"Hmm." He hummed as he playfully put his index on his chin, pretending to think. "What about... I'll think about it soon?" He said and you slightly tilt your head at him.

"What?"

"Let me the father of this baby, let me raise him with you. Then I'll come up with a price you have to pay, so if ever I asked you a cash you can still save up." He said and smiled at you.

You don't know how to respond to that, you went silent as if thinking if you should really trust the Ran Haitani. Then you suddenly heard the giggle of the baby in his arms, you're unaware of the smile spreading on your lips at the sight of Ran holding the baby. He looked at you and smiled.

"Okay." You said. He looked at you and smiled.

"Will you let me raise this child with you?" He asked to confirm.

"In one condition." You said as you breathe in and out, he hummed waiting for your next words. "You'll never put the baby in danger." He smiled and nods.

"You have to promise me that whatever happen you'll protect the baby even if your life is on the line." You added and he chuckled but nod afterwards.

"I promise." He said sincerely as he smiled. Then he stood up and give the baby a sway in his arms. He looked at it with admiration.
