"I said no chocolates."

She sneakily put one box of chocolate to our cart. I smirk as I caught her in the act putting the box back to it's place.

"Muuummmm." She whines to Lisa, asking for help as those round eyes pleads to my wife's direction.

This cheeky little brat.

"Babe...." Lisa started to say.

"No." I firmly stated knowing where this conversation would go.

"But...

"I said No."

Lisa turns to our child that's inside our push cart sneakily reaching out for the box again. "If Mommy says no. Then that's a No."

I smiled as our child pouted crossing her arms eyes following to where Lisa puts the box again.

Look at this tiny baby.

"Babe, can't we...." Lisa sigh   "can you stand her like that? Let's buy the chocolate."

Lisa will always fall for our daughter's act. She's so whipped that if only she could play Genie, she would've.

This is why the child is growing spoiled. I can't blame her though, I fall to her tantrums too.

"She still has chocolates in the house. She didn't even finished half of it."

Lisa fell silent to the side pushing the cart again, following me. She promise to our child, if she'll finish the remaining chocolates in the house, she would buy two boxes of it.

The reason for how the kid's face lighten up, eyes glittering for Lisa's words making her in so much good mood again. I just shake my head to the both of them.

These two precious being can really lighten my day.

Iris Kim Manoban, our child.

The only treasure that Lisa and I have.

I got pregnant the year after we got married. I carried our first child. It's my request and also my dream. I was thirty one when we did the surrogate in America.

After three months of stable, healthy further check up, I went back in New Zealand. Lisa would still visit every now and then to check up on my situation.

During those days, Lisa can't leave her business in Korea. I also had mine here the reason why it's still hard for us to choose where to stay. Though we're planning to move once the child is born. Might here in New Zealand, or in Korea.

But when I almost got into a terrible accident, Lisa took me with her without further talk.

5th months of pregnancy. I slipped when I'm trying to finish my half bath. It happened so fast. But I'm sure I had both my hands supporting my my weight, not letting myself to fall to the cold tile.
But when Jennie opened the door, she just panicked and sent me to hospital. Later that midnight, Lisa came crying and said how sorry she was and claimed it's her fault for not being by my side throughout all of this.

So when she decided to take me with her back in Korea, I agreed. My parents understands, since Lisa's my wife in the first place and it would be good for me to have Lisa by my side. So I  left the perfume business to Jennie.

We moved to the house we brought when we got married. It was never used until then. Lisa still stays in her apartment after the marriage saying the house was too big for her to stay and she's alone.
