It was a typical day at home. Six months have passed since Julia gave birth to their son. David is still seems unattached with his emotions and Julia is still looking hot even after giving birth. Julia is getting annoyed with her husband's emotional status and decided to give him a little reminder that man cannot live in strength alone.
"David," Julia said while David is reading the newspaper, "Can you take care of our son for a few hours? I need to take care of a few things today." David continued reading his paper but asked, "What are you going to do today, Julia?" "I have to shop for groceries." Replied Julia, "I'm sure you can manage a few hours taking care of him." "Yes, I suppose I can do that." replied David. "Good," said Julia, "now to remind you of a few things." Julia asked him to put the newspaper down. He did what he's told and followed Julia to the nursery. Julia told David the things he should do with the child, the time when he's going to feed him and how to send him to sleep. David understood. "I'll be back in a couple of hours." She said. David looked at his son who is looking back at him with his blue eyes. "I guess it's just you and me for now."
It has been pretty quiet. David is reading the newspaper again and his son is busy playing with some of his toys but a few minutes later, the baby cried. David put his newspaper down and went to the nursery to see what the fuss is all about. 'He must be hungry.' David thought. So David fed his son milk. His son is happy to be fed.
In the grocery store…
Julia is grocery shopping when she met Lewis. "Hey Julia," said Lewis, "where's David and your son?" "I left them home." Julia replied. Lewis grinned. "So you left David to take care of your son, ei?" Julia smiled, "yes," she said, "I wonder if he's doing fine."
Now let's go back with David and his son…
David is watching his son crawl in the nursery. The boy is a fast crawler. David is trying to keep up with his son's pace for he fears that his son might bump into a wall and hit his head. 'I didn't know that Julia does this everyday while I'm at work.' David thought. 'It's harder than shooting chiropterans back in Red Shield.' He got tired of following his son so he picked his son up and carried him. "I think it's about time you give your father a rest." David said, "I better send you to sleep." His son giggled. He sat on a chair rocked his son to sleep.
Julia opened the door and entered their house. 'It's quiet in here.' She thought to herself. She went to the kitchen and put all the groceries there. She decided to check on David and their son. She saw David kiss their son's forehead and then she watched as he put him back to his crib. David walked towards Julia. "So you handled it well," Julia said, "I was worried that you're getting into too much trouble." David smiled a bit. "It was harder than I thought," he said, "I didn't know that he crawls so fast." "Well that's because you only take care of him when he's asleep." Julia said. "I'm at work," David reasoned, "I don't get to see him awake. I am now fully aware that it's very difficult, I'll help you out whenever I can." Julia smiled at him, "It's nice to get some help." She said, "So, you're not so much of a cyborg now, are you?" David just nodded. 'I guess she's right,' David thought 'man cannot live in strength alone. After all, if I live with only strength, how can I show how much I love her and our son?'
