At Tay's house, Tay's dad said, "Son, next month I will announce you as the new boss of the company."
Tay responded reluctantly, "Dad, I don't want to do office work now. Can I have more time?"
Tay's dad replied, "Son, you’re now big enough to handle things. I don't want to overwork anymore; I need a break too."
Tay sighed, "Yes, Dad, I know you need a break badly. Give me another six months, and then I’ll take over. You can go on vacation with Mom."
His dad agreed, "Okay, you promise me?"
"Absolutely, no worries," Tay reassured him.
Tay's mom called out, "You two, if you're done talking, come here. I found a good movie we can watch together."
Tay whispered to his dad, "Dad, I don’t want to watch another boring movie. She'll cry, and I'll feel bored."
His dad chuckled, "Son, if we don’t go, your mom will kick us out of the house."
Tay groaned, "Oh, why didn’t Win suffer with us too? Why only us?"
His dad laughed, "He made an excuse about school studies, so she let him go."
Tay sighed wistfully, "Now I really want to study in school again."
His mom called out again, "Hey, what are you both talking about? Come here, I already started the movie."
In unison, Tay and his dad replied, "Yes, Mom."
As they watched the movie, Tay’s mom cried, and Tay and his dad sat there, tissues in hand. Tay wasn’t allowed to touch his phone during movie time—his mom's strict rule.
Meanwhile, at the hospital, New was finally discharged and went home. He sat on the bed with his son while his mom cooked something for them. Suddenly, Nanon started to cry.
New, panicking, said, "Oh, what happened? Are you in pain somewhere? Stop crying, Nanon. I’ll take you to the hospital."
As New got up to go to the hospital, his mom stopped him, "New, where are you going?"
He replied, "He's crying non-stop, Mom. I think he's in pain."
His mom calmly said, "No, son, he’s not in pain. He must be hungry. Give him some milk."
New, realizing he didn't have any powdered milk, said, "I didn’t bring any powdered milk. You hold him, I’ll go to the market to get some."
His mom reassured him, "You just recovered, New. Don’t go out. Didn’t the doctor tell you how to feed him?"
New, confused, said, "No, but the nurse mentioned something about chest milk, which I didn’t understand."
His mom gently guided him, "When a baby is born, the mother can give her chest milk."
New protested, "But I’m not a woman. How can I give him my milk?"
His mom smiled, "Didn’t you notice anything?"
New, puzzled, said, "What?"
new mom gently say "Okay, forget it. Just try what I said, and if it doesn’t work, I’ll go to the market and buy baby milk powder."
New's mom insisted he try, and to his surprise, it worked. New thought to himself, "Did I become a woman somehow? Whatever, baby drink slowly. I’m not going anywhere." Nanon drank his milk quickly after that he fell asleep. New put him in bed . new feeling a bit embarrassed, said, "Mom, I don’t think my milk is sufficient for him. Can you buy the powdered milk?"
