What would you do if you find a child at your door? Donghyuck would definitely take full responsibility. Well, how about finding out that the child is actually your boss' son?

"I'm Mister Gift man!"
Mark snapped out from his trance when a little boy zoomed left and right in front of him. It overstimulated him that his son was screaming and running around with soap bubbles hugging his body and tiny hands.
However, his mind was off to someone that's in the kitchen making big waffles for them to have for breakfast.
Well, aside from not being able to keep Donghyuck out of his head, Mark couldn't help but be worried of the first thing that he was welcomed with when he came to visit the apartment first thing in the morning.
"Ho, ho, ho!" The kid's impersonation of the Christmas grandfather echoed inside the small bathroom.
"Trying to look like Santa Claus?" Realizing that they were taking more than an hour in the bath, Mark stood up to look for the towel that was given to him for the kid.
"Mister Gift man!" This boy has a way with his own dictionary.
Laughing along with him, Mark rolled his sleeves up and crouched down to match his son's height to start drying him up.
"Daddy, you stay for big waffles?" Chan asked as he let the adult wrap him with his towel. "Papa is making them!"
Speaking of Donghyuck, Mark was reminded again about that man's state.
He looked like he's sick.
Arriving this morning, Mark couldn't hide the worry he felt when he noticed how exhausted Donghyuck looked when he greeted him. He kept on sneezing as he was walking around the apartment, and his voice was groggy. The only time he got hold of him was when Donghyuck slipped in the living room and Mark was quick enough to catch him, having him in his arms and noticing how boiling hot his temperature was.
Mark just never got to ask Donghyuck about it because this little boy was dragging him to have their bubble bath for the day.
"Can I stay?" Even if he knew he was invited to be there, Mark still felt the need to show his decency and ask for permission.
It's also a way to teach the child about decency and proper behavior. "Daddy, I want you stay!"
His effort in making his sentence understandable made Mark let out a chuckle. "But I have to go after breakfast, okay? I have work."
"Work..." Chan pursed his lips, being carried to the room and was settled to sit on the bed while the other was searching for what clothes he should wear. "Papa work too?"
Mark nodded his head upon getting a simple sweater and baggy jeans. "Yes. But don't worry, you won't be alone here. He will bring you along. You can stay with... Those Uncles of yours."
It's not that Mark held grudges with Donghyuck's friends within the company— but they all had questionable humor and odd aspects in life. Mark couldn't blame himself if he was worried what his own kid would learn from them. Maybe sooner or later, he can try to introduce his son to the people in his circle.
