Twice One Shots

30. Take Your Kid to Work Day (Sahyo)

   "자기야! (honey) Where is Minjun's short sleeve white dress shirt and the bowtie he likes to wear with it? The one with the teddy bears!" Jihyo had gone through her son's closet at least three times, frantically searching for the rest of his outfit. It was take your kid to work day and she and Sana were not going to miss the chance to show off their son to the entire company even if Minjun frequently came to work with them.

   Sana bumped into the doorframe as she tried to find the head hole of her shirt. This got a laugh out of Minjun who only had socks and khaki colored pants on. Despite the panicked state that both of his parents seemed to be in, he was as calm as any four year old could be. To tell the truth, he seemed to be more interested in the box of colorful building blocks that was sitting in the corner of the room than helping Jihyo find the rest of his clothes. By the time Sana managed to get her shirt on all the way, Minjun was happily sitting in front of the box, blocks surrounding him and a small teddy bear bowtie sitting behind him. Minjun had seen the bowtie but paid it no mind, carelessly tossing it to get to what he really wanted faster.

   "Ah! Minjun-ie you found it." Sana squealed excitedly and picked it up, walking over to Jihyo to hand her the bowtie. As she stood there, waiting for Jihyo to look up, she spotted the white dress shirt pushed to the far corner of the closet. She smiled and shook her head, tapping on Jihyo's shoulder, pointing to the shirt. "Missed it." 

   Jihyo rolled her eyes and leaned forward, grabbing the shirt off the hanger. She thanked Sana and took the bowtie, bending down so she could finish getting Minjun dressed. "Okay bud can you lift your arms up for me so I can put your shirt on?" Jihyo asked him with a playful tone but was soon dismayed when he shook his head, only focused on building a tower out of all the red blocks he had. Jihyo sighed and tried to grab his arm to put it through one of the arm holes but Minjun scooted further away. 

   Sana just watched in amusement, letting her wife try a few more times before Minjun was practically halfway across the room from how much he had scooted away. She took the shirt and bowtie from Jihyo and crouched down beside her son. "Minjun-ah. Do you want to see how fast you can put your shirt on? If we do it in less than a minute Dahyun noona will buy you an ice cream!" This immediately got his attention. Minjun's precious blocks were abandoned as he bounced up and down, holding his arms out so Sana could slip his shirt on. She smiled and counted as she buttoned his shirt. She flipped the collar of the shirt up and wrapped the bowtie around his neck, clipping the ends together. She took a few seconds to adjust everything and stood up, taking a step back. "어머 (omo, omg). Our little Minjun is so handsome and he got ready in only 40 seconds. Now Dahyun noona will have to buy you an ice cream." Sana giggled as she watched him excitedly jump up and down.

   The previously uninterested four year old was now dragging Jihyo and Sana out of the house, excited to see his aunt Dahyun but more excited at the promise of ice cream. Jihyo unlocked the car and buckled him into his car seat, handing him a white Davely plush to keep him entertained while they made their way to the office. Thankfully the drive from their house to JYP Entertainment was only 10 minutes because the second Jihyo lifted Minjun out of the car, he was running towards the side entrance of the building. He waited impatiently as Sana and Jihyo took their time grabbing their bags before scanning their fingerprints to open the door.

   "Remember, Minjun, you have to hold mama's hand. The office is big and we don't want you to get lost." Jihyo took her son's small hand in her her own and walked towards the elevators, lifting him up so he could press the button for the 10th floor. He hit it at least four times and giggled louder and louder with each push before Jihyo set him down. The elevator was slow but Minjun didn't mind as he made up a little dance with the Davely he always carried with him. He was in his own little world, unaware of the fact that both Sana and Jihyo were recording him. They gave each other a smile and put their phones away as the elevator door opened.
