A.N.: Hi, work caught up and I didn't have much time to sit and work on "All I Ask: A Sequel (AIA:AS)". Now that I'm in front of the computer to work on it, I'm feeling a little stressed out with it. I need a tiny break from this sad story for a little while. Don't worry. I won't leave it unfinished. Just swerving a bit to another lighter story.

"Waaaaaaaaa…. Waaaaaaaaaaa… Waaaaaaaaaaaaa"

The little boy's cry filled the entire So Mansion. Ga Eul was in the kitchen when the wailing reverberated through the air and reached her. In an instant she sprinted out of the space, leaving the kitchen staff to handle dinner's preparation.

"Baby!" Her heart went frenzy. Her Dae-Hyun sounded in pain.

She sprinted to the mini nursery at the end of the right wing of the ground floor where she left the six-month-old baby with her husband so that she could go make dinner.

The door to the nursery banged in force when she slammed it open. To her surprise, her wailing baby was on her husband's arm and the man was rubbing the baby's forehead. He had a scared and worried expression.

"Honey! Baby!" Ga Eul rushed to them.

"Jagiya!" Yi Jeong looked up to her and went to her, too.

Ga Eul immediately took baby Dae-Hyun from her husband and rocked and soothed him. Yi Jeong continued to rub the baby's forehead. The baby would not stop crying.

"What happened Honey? Did Baby fall? Did you leave him unattended?"

"No! I never left my eyes from him. I swear."

"Then why is Baby in pain? And what happen to Baby's forehead?" Ga Eul lightly brushed away Yi Jeong's hand from the baby's forehead but there was no bruise or whatsoever. She then checked his arms, body, and legs, afraid if there was any cut.

"I… Well, I… I…." the young father stuttered, nervously.

"You what?" asked his wife, her worry escalated. She kissed the baby's cheeks repeatedly to ease him but he kept crying.

"I… I…."

"You did what So Yi Jeong?" cut Ga Eul, startling him. She was getting impatient. They needed to take the baby to the doctor if he continued crying. She did not want anything bad to happen to her son.

"I accidentally knocked my forehead onto Baby's forehead."

There. He said it and pleaded with his eyes that his wife would not scold him for that.

Ga Eul was dumbfounded. After a while, "What? You did what?" Her hand automatically went to the baby's forehead and she gently rubbed on it. She could now feel a little bump right in the middle of it.

"I… We played boo. He loved it and laughed every time I said "Boo!"." Yi Jeong demonstrated their play. He tilted his head backward with his eyes closed and then quickly leaned forward and opened his eyes as he said "Boo!"

"I love hearing him laughed and got too excited I guess. My forehead bumped onto his, hard, and he cried." He felt guilty.

Ga Eul did not know whether to be happy or to scold her husband. She was happy that her husband loved playing with their son but she also wanted to scold him for making the baby cried, but it was an accident. So she might just have to remind him to be extra careful the next time.

"Hand me the napkin, quick," she instructed her husband. Baby Dae-Hyun was still crying but the cries had slowed down. Yi Jeong quickly reached for the baby cloth napkin with cute yellow ducklings prints on the table and passed it to his wife. Ga Eul scrunched the end of the napkin and brought it to her mouth. She huffed and puffed into it and then pressed it on the baby's forehead. She repeated the process until the baby stopped crying. All the while, Yi Jeong watched his wife and son as he held the baby's little hand. "Sorry Baby. Appa didn't mean it. It was an accident."

Baby Dae-Hyun had finally stopped crying. He leaned his head against his Omma's shoulder as Omma now rubbed his back up and down. Yi Jeong, too, had a hand on the baby's back.

"Appa is sorry, Baby. Please don't get angry at Appa." He continuously uttered. Ga Eul smiled lovingly at her husband.

"Would you like to hold him? And I need to go back to the kitchen. I think dinner will be ready in another ten minutes."

Yi Jeong nodded but as Ga Eul tried passing the baby to his Appa, the baby held on tight to Omma. He refused to go to Appa.

Yi Jeong pouted. "Baby is angry at Appa."

Ga Eul let out small laughs. "Yes, Appa. Looks like he is." Yi Jeong pouted more.

She softly caressed her husband's cheek and gave a light kiss on the lips to coax him. He protested when she pulled away from the kiss too early. Ga Eul laughed more.

She then gave the baby to Appa. The baby started to cry and held out his hands to her. Ga Eul cooed and baby talked, and made funny voices and faces. She signaled to Yi Jeong to do the same. After a few attempts, the first-time father managed to obtain 'forgiveness' from his son and the baby started to laugh and played with him again. Yi Jeong felt happy and relieved.

Ga Eul then kissed the baby's cheek and her husband and left them to their father-and-son bonding time.


Both husband and wife stood next to the baby's handsomely decorated blue crib, watching their beautiful first born sleeping soundly. Yi Jeong had an arm around Ga Eul's shoulder and she had hers around his waist. Every few seconds or so, he kissed atop her head.

"Jagiya, I'm sorry about earlier with Baby. I didn't mean it."

She turned to look at him and locked his eyes. "Hey, don't apologize, Honey. I know it was an accident. You would never hurt Baby."

Yi Jeong pursed his lips into a thin smile. She was definitely right on the last part there.

"Honey, I understand your excitement when you're with Baby. He's so cute and adorable and getting smarter and more responsive. I feel the same way too. Just be careful with him next time, arasso?"

Yi Jeong nodded. This feeling of being a father was so overwhelming that he could not really describe it if someone asked. The joy, the happiness and everything good when he was with his son, his own flesh, and blood, filled his whole being. When the baby smiled and cooed and giggled and laughed, they were all blissful moments for him. He loved seeing his baby happy and healthy.

"Jagiya, I love being a father, especially because you're the mother. Show me how to be a good father, OK?"

"No, Honey… we'll learn to be good parents together." She titled her head up and captured his lips.

"I love you, Jagiya."

"I love you too, Honey."


Yi Jeong's incident with Dae-Hyun's forehead bump was the first but definitely not the last.
