As the sun began to rise, Taehyung woke up early, sitting on his bed. He let out a yawn and stretched his arms, glancing over to see his son still deep in slumber. Careful not to disturb him, Taehyung quietly got up and left the bed.

He headed to the bathroom to complete his morning routine. Moments later, the sound of the bathroom door clicking could be heard as Taehyung emerged, draped only in a towel. Making his way to the wardrobe, he selected a formal dress for a job interview later that day.

With each passing day, Taehyung found himself struggling to afford their daily needs. Especially now that his son was in kindergarten, there were additional expenses for school supplies, clothes, and shoes. The brunette male worried that he might not be able to provide these necessities due to his financial constraints.

He had already borrowed a significant amount of money from his brother, who had been taking care of them. Taehyung no longer wanted to rely on his brother's generosity and become a burden. He was determined to stand on his own feet.

So, he actively sought out a high-paying job that would enable him to meet their needs without depending on others.

By the grace of God, he stumbled upon a job opportunity that offered the salary he desired.

Interestingly, it was an elderly woman he had met at his brother's café who had recommended this job. The old woman had become a regular customer, drawn to the café's delicious food and drinks, as well as its peaceful ambiance—a perfect balance of liveliness and tranquility. It had become a favorite spot for her to relax or find solace in times of stress. Through their interactions, Taehyung had developed a friendship with the old woman.

When she recommended the job to him, he readily accepted, trusting her judgment and desperately needing the opportunity.

After getting dressed, he left his room and went downstairs, heading towards the kitchen to prepare breakfast for himself and his son

"Mama..."

The brunette turned his head upon hearing his son's voice calling out to him.

"Oh, baby, you're just in time. I've just finished cooking our breakfast. Come here, and let's eat, hmm?"

Jeongguk nodded, obediently following his mama's instructions. He approached the dining table, climbed onto one of the chairs, settled himself comfortably, and placed the bunny plushie on his lap.

Taehyung served his son a plate of rice, an egg, and bacon, and did the same for himself.

"We will go to hyung's cafe later, so you should be clean and fresh. I'll drop you off there first because I have to go somewhere. Uncle Jimin will watch over you and take care of you while I'm gone, okay?"
