Joenne had just finished recording the demo for the idol's new song and was currently drinking soju at a convenience store. It was extra cold and this was her way of heating herself up.
"Excuse me, have you seen a 3 year old boy? Curly hair and blue eyes?" A middle aged woman said as she walked up to Joenne. A little bit tipsy, she shook her head no and returned her sight to her phone.
"Okay, please call this number if you do see him. I'm his Teacher, Sunny, Thank you!"
"Ah.. okay? I'm Joenne??" She was about to introduce herself when Sunny had already continued her search for her student.
Joenne placed her soju bottle on the calling card to keep it from flying away.
"This is why kids... I dislike them." She said and brushed her fingers through her hair.
She panned her attention back on her phone as she took a shot from time to time. Joenne's flimsy attention got piqued when the part timer at the cashier was raising his voice, making a ruckus.
Joenne squinted her eyes and saw a kid, with his hand out, only looking at the adult before him. She decided to step in, seeing that the kid wasn't phased at all.
"What's going on here?"
"Ah, are you this kid's mom? Pay up now. Your kid was planning to pay for chocolate bar with a few pennies! You better educate your child right!"
Joenne's brow raised at the tone. She looked at the kid and her eyes widened at the familiar kid.
"Ah, really. Look here, this isn't my kid. Do I have curly hair and blue eyes? Besides, how dumb are you? How do you expect a 3 year old understand the concept of buying things. You could have just looked for a contact number to call his guardian. How incompetent." Joenne muttered under her breath the last line before throwing a bill on the counter and walking out of the store, with Kit following after.
"Where's your dad?" She asked and sat on the table she was using before. Kit took the initiative and sat in front of her.
"Noona, I'm turning four."
Joenne looked at Kit unbelievably before laughing out loud.
"That's what you noticed? Hey, I even got accused to be your mother, who's at loss here huh."
Kit sneered at Joan before tapping his fingers unto the table.
"Where's your dad? Is he around here somewhere?"
Joenne noticed the silence so she looked up from her phone to see Kit with tears and snot all over his face while looking away.
"I-I don't know... I just wanted a choco bar."
She immediately panicked. Remembering the encounter earlier, she pulled the calling card under her soju bottle only for it to be smudged and soaked.
"God, how stupid." Joenne murmured before looking at the kid in front of her, trying to hold in his sobs.
"Where do you study? Wait... are you studying already? Where does your dad leave you? At a daycare?"
Kit wiped his tears with the back of hands before nodding.
"Sunset Daycare." He murmured. Joenne wasn't familiar with it but she searched it up and found out it wasn't too far away.
"Okay, follow Noona and I'll bring your Dad to you." Joenne said and stood up, grabbing her jacket and bag. Kit got off the chair too, and sniffled.
"Why are you crying so much? I'm reliable enough so you don't have to cry anymore." She boasted, trying to lift the mood. Kit glared at her but still held his hand out.
