"Does Daddy need to work late?" Munchkin sounded disappointed.

"Yes. Daddy has a lot of work lately," | attempted to explain to Munchkin.

"But isn't Daddy the boss? Do bosses need to work late too?"

The little guy tilted his head to one side as he asked, and | could not help but burst into laughter.

| had not told Munchkin much about how companies operated. All he knew was that his daddy and mommy

would leave the house to go to their jobs and that they worked on their own careers.

Other than that, every concept he had formed about work cfrom watching

TV.

Since TV shows always portrayed bosses as the ones who asked the employees to work overtime, Munchkin

naturally thought that was just the way things worked.

After spending more twith Theo, he had gradually begun learning more about Theo's identity and now knew

that Theo's role was the sas the bosses he saw on TV. Naturally, he thought that Theo would act just like the

bosses he watched in his shows.

I smiled gently. "Of course, bosses need to work late. It's the sas giving up sof the tyou would

usually spend sleeping to complete the handicraft tasks your kindergarten teachers gave you."

| gently tapped on the little nose | saw on the screen.

"Alright then."

The little guy's head drooped in disappointment. It seemed like he had accepted the situation.

However, a short while later, he raised his head again to look at me. "Mommy, can you ask Daddy to cback

earlier today? | made a new kind of meatball for you guys today."

He lifted the plate he was holding as he spoke, showingthe meatballs he had carefully arranged on it.

| was extremely surprised when | saw the dish. Munchkin had indeed made a different kind of meatball today.

The meatballs seemed to be made with unfamiliar ingredients.

"Mommy, earned how to make this

today. Even Grandma said | did a good job and that it's even better than what Grandpa could do. Grandpa had no

idea you could

prepare meatballs this way"

A proud feeling washed overas | gazed at Munchkin, who had an ecstatic expression on his face.

It seemed that no matter where he was, he would always find a way to make himself happy.

At the stime, | noticed some

stains on his sleeves. They were probably unwashed spots from when he had been making meatballs. However,

he took tto video callbefore even cleaning himself up. That showed just how sincere his invitation was.

"Alright, I'll extend your invitation to Daddy when he's taking a break. If there isn't anything urgent for him to

take care of, I'll ask him to go over and try your meatballs.

alright?"

| was delighted that Munchkin had taken the tto prepare meatballs for Theo and me. However, | did not dare

give him a definite promise that | would get Theo to go back.

"Alright, Mommy, good luck."

Perhaps it was because Theo often worked late nights and coupled with the nature of my previous work,

Munchkin gladly accepted my vague answer and even wishedluck.

Guilt washed overafter | hung up the phone. | gazed at the busy traffic on the interchange and the towering

buildings erected all over the city. These were all sights that boasted the city's prosperity.

We were so close to each other, but we could not spend twith the child. The thought of that made me

miserable.

I strode out into the office without another minute's hesitation.

When Theo heardpushing the door open and walking out, he hurriedly raised his head and asked, "Why
