A tiny, sleepy waddled in his father's home office, jaguar plushie tightly pressed against his chest.
“Hi kitten. How are you feeling?”
Minho asked his little boy as he helped him on his lap and placed a soft kiss on Akemi's head.
“Sleepy. And hungry.”
“You're hungry? That's good. Daddy made some chicken soup for you.”
“With noodles?”
“Are you up for some noodles?”
But at the direct question, the little one only shrugged and curled up in his daddy's arms.
“I dunno.”
“Then let's make some, you eat as much as you can and daddy will eat the rest, okay? And then you'll take your medicine, hm?”
“No! Yucky!”
“But you still feel a little icky, hm?”
Minho chuckled when his tiny son nodded, a cute pout forming on his face.
His flushed cheeks and sweaty forehead told the ravenette that Akemi was still a little feverish but since he was talking way more than the day prior, Minho knew that he was already feeling better.
“Come on, let's prepare some noodles.”
The tiny boy squeaked cutely when his father lifted him up in his arms and stood up to carry him to the couch in the living room, making sure Akemi didn't drop his plushie.
Their three cats meowed softly when Minho placed his little kitten on the couch and wrapped his mommy's fluffy blanket around him and turned the TV on to keep the small boy entertained while he made his way back to the kitchen.
The pot of chicken soup still stood on the stove, ready to get heated up again.
And while Minho started cooking the noodles, Akemi giggled softly when Soonie crawled closer.
“Hi kitty.”
He smiled cutely when the orange cat nudged his wet nose against the boy's cheek, sniffing him softly before he licked his chubby baby cheek.
“Did you sleep too? You look sleepy.”
But the feline only purred happily as he snuggled his face against the little boy's chest before he dropped himself on Akemi lap to give the boy full access to pet his fluffy tummy.
“Snuggly kitty. Mommy says I'm a snuggly kitten too.”
Soonie meowed cutely when his favorite small human caressed his tummy.
“Well, you are a snuggly kitten. Mommy is very right with that.”
Minho smiled as he placed a small bowl of soup on the table and took a seat beside his kitties.
And to prove his daddy's words, the small boy immediately cuddled close to his father's side while also making sure not to drop the cat on his lap.
“When will mommy be home?”
“I'm not sure, bub. He's meeting uncle Minnie.”
“Why?”
“I don't know. He's mommy's friend, sometimes we all need a friend.”
“What do you mean?”
Akemi tilted his head cutely, not understanding what his daddy was trying to say.
“When you see your friends in daycare and you play together, it makes you happy, right?”
“Yes!”
“Maybe uncle Minnie was having a bad day and seeing mommy could make him feel better. That's what I meant.”
Minho chuckled as he ruffled his son's hair.
“Oh. I hope mommy can help.”
Their son really was such a sweet soul.
“I'm pretty sure he can. Now eat or it'll get cold.”
The ravenette reminded his little boy as he turned the TV off so Akemi would focus on eating.
He didn't want the small boy to accidentally choke nor to spill some soup on the carpet.
The tiny kitten carefully took a first spoonful of the soup, his eyes visibly lighting up at the taste of the chicken broth and a cute smile spreading on his face as he looked up to his daddy.
“Yummy!”
“You like it?”
“Yes! Good job, daddy!”
“Thank you, kitten.”
Minho chuckled at his son's adorableness and pressed a soft kiss on top of his head.
Even when he was sick, their tiny kitten was truly just too cute.
