Six months later

"Mommy's gonna be home late today again, princess. So we have the whole day to ourselves!" Dino sighs. "Should we go visit grandpa today?" Kyung-mi just stares up at him blankly. "Hm, you're right. He saw you yesterday." He folds his legs in as she begins rolling around. "Ooh, you wanna dance? You wanna dance like daddy?"

"Bahhhhhh..." she lets out a random sound.

"I take that as a yes!" He smiles before reaching for the remote and playing Because of You by Neyo on the TV. "Go baby! Go! Go! Go baby! Gooo!" He dances around her causing Kyung-mi to laugh. He picks her up into his arms.

"Ooh, want to, but I can't help it! I love the way it feels!" He proceeds to dance with her. "It's got me stuck between my fantasy and what is real! I need it when I want it, I want it when I don't. Tell myself I'll stop everyday, knowing that I won't!"

He sets her down on the couch, placing pillows around her to support her.

"Okay, princess! You have to cheer for daddy, okay?" He laughs waiting for the chorus to come on. "And I know this much is true! Baby, you..." he points at her causing her to laugh again. "Have become my addiction! I'm so strung out on you! I can barely move but I like- ah! Don't eat that!" He runs over and takes the remote from her. "You don't know where that's been!"

"Eeeeeeee!" She cries when he takes it away.

He throws his head back before picking her up. "Okay, I'm sorry. Daddy's sorry!" He hugs her tight. Immediately she stops crying and begins playing with the chain he had on. He pauses the song and sits down on the couch. She continues to play with his chain. "Should we call grandma? You wanna talk with grandma?"

Still focused on his chain, he chuckles before pulling out his phone and video calling his mom. He flips the camera so that it's facing Kyung-mi.

"Oh! Hello sweet girl!" Dino's mom's voice rings through the phone. "Hi there sweetie!"

Kyung-mi's head pops up, looking around for the sound. He pulls her in, resting her against his stomach and flipping the camera so that his mom could see both of them.

"Hey, mom." Dino smiles, lifting her tiny hand and waving. "Say, hi grandma!" Kyung-mi furrows her eyebrows in confusion. "Ah! Wrinkles!" Dino softly rubs her forehead.

"Looks like you two are having fun." His mom smiles at them.

"Not really." He sighs. "I miss Jang-mi."

"She's just at work, isn't she?"

"Yeah, but I still miss her." He picks up Kyung-mi in one arm and walks around the house. "Who knew paternity leave could be so boring?"

"Well, she does have the event coming up. You can't blame her for working hard."

"I know." He nudges the fridge open with his foot. He checks the time before nodding and walking to the dish rack. "But the house feels so empty."

"What do you mean?" He grabs a bottle and a lid before grabbing a waterbottle and an open can of formula. "You have Kyung-mi to keep you company."

"Kyung-mi just eats, sleep, uses the bathroom, eats, drools, eats again, uses the bathroom again," he sets her on the ground, giving her a small bunny to play with while he makes her bottle. "She's practically Hansol."

His mom laughs. "Actually, that sounds a lot more like you as a baby."

"Mom, I'm pretty sure that's how every baby is." He puts the lid on and begins shaking it. Kyung-mi begins crying. "I know, I know, it's coming."
