Beep.. Beep.. Beep.. Beep..

The timer had finally went off, after an hour or two with constant getting up and flailing around cho had finally set himself on that step and sat there for the duration of 5 minutes. I had been going backwards and forwards with struggles, I had barely got anything done, cleaning wise.

"Well down baby, see it wasn't so difficult, was it?" I said to cho calmly at the bottom step he was sat on, sniffling and his face full of snot that was waiting to be smothered onto my clothes.

"Mnhmn daddy huggies peas" cho asked, I have to have a talk to him about what his actions and how they have consequences.

"Now baby, do you know why you were put on the step?" I asked, but once I asked that question the tears started to come back again, but with patience and time he started to talk.

"I- uh I was.. was a ba-bad boy uh huggies?"

"No, no baby what did you do to make you a bad boy?" I asked once again, quietly as to not scare him, he was shifting around on the step thinking over his words.

"I uh d-didn't mean it daddy I swear please huggies" he consisted on getting hugs, I nearly just let him out, but he needs to know what he do wrong.

"Baby what did you do to daddy earlier on?" He a shocked face then it went soft again realising what I want to hear and that he's not going to get of the step until he shows what he has learnt.

"I um i chuck-chucked daddy's food.." I gave him a look.

"Carry on baby"

"And I hit. Which is not good boy. I sorry daddy love you" he finished saying what I had wanted him to say to me.

"Aw baby cho I love you to, good boy come here for huggies" I open my arms. He had hesitated to come into them, but started crying once again when he was in my comforting presence.

I carried on stroking his hair and humming "what a good boy, realising your mistakes, I love you, why don't you have some warm milk and get you settled down" I felt his head nod in my embrace.

I get up, carrying him toward the living room. When he was on the step I had set up some warm milk and engulfed it with a honey flavour, which he will love, I hope.

"Hello my beautiful boys, how are you doing, all better?" Mateo asked still sitting on the couch, we had earlier on talked in between cho's movement from his spot on the step.

"All better papa I will have warm milky soon" cho exclaimed from my hold turning his head to meet mateos eyes.

"Come on them let's fill that belly of yours" I then go to the couch and lay him across my lap and set the bottle between his lips, he latched on and starts drinking looking up into my eyes while doing so.

"Good boy, such a good boy for daddy and papa isn't that right?" Without saying anything his lips turn into a smile around the bottle, making me smile even more.

The tv was on and everyone was relaxed just listening to the back round sounds coming from the volume, everything was piece and quiet and I loved that.

"Are you tired baby, you can go to sleep if you want" I could see that cho's eyes were getting heavier by the moment, refusing to go to sleep however it's been a busy day and he needs his nap.

As it was 1:18pm it was near his afternoon nap time so I am not surprised as well with all of his crying it must have really tired him out.

"Go on just go to sleep my little angel" he then shut his eyes so that he was all peaceful and the milk, that had been half drunk had slipped out of his mouth.
