Chapter 106 - Hes more handsome (2/2)

”No, Daddy.” She points at Kang Si An on the screen. ”That daddy I also want, Daddy.”

”...” Young Hwa is also speechless.

She needs to be educated on somethings. ”Little Hae, a child has only one daddy and only one mother. That's the law of society. Your mother is me.”

I don't say more. Kang Si An is her real father. Maybe when she grows up, I will reveal the truth. I will tell her everything. She will probably understand me.

”Little Hae.” He rubs her head. ”Am I not handsome enough for you?”

She shakes her head and points at the screen again. ”He's more handsome.”

I turn off the TV. I pick it up and throw it out of my house right away. She's a bit scared. I don't hate seeing that expression on her face because of me. I need to cool down. I am not proud of what I did. I step out of the house for a moment. Little Hae is a kid. It's my fault that she has turned out like this. I must have done something wrong.

”Come inside.” Young Hwa opens the door. ”I have put her on the bed.”

I walk back into the house. I pace around the room. There are too many thoughts in my mind. Young Hwa puts his hands on my shoulder and forces me to stand still. ”Calm down.”

I don't know how to calm down.

”Kids are like that.” He makes me sit on the couch. ”They are easily attracted to eye-catching things. We will work on her habit.”

He pauses for a moment. ”I think that she needs a father figure in her life. She needs a complete family. Little Hae is different from other kids. I am not around her all the time. I think that my absence affects her.”

I wonder if it's really because she doesn't have a permanent father figure in her life. I should have understood that she's different from other children. One can't say how children get affected. For the first time since she is born, I realize that Young Hwa is right. My daughter needs a complete family unless I want her to seek her daddy in every handsome male she sees. She needs to have a father figure who is there for her.

He puts his hand on the top of my head. I realize why Little Hae likes it when he does this to her. It has a calming effect.

”You are right. She needs a father.” I let out a sigh. ”Marrying you because she needs a father is wrong.”

He doesn't say anything. I turn to look at him. I find him staring at me. The atmosphere is suddenly ambiguous. What's going inside his head? I purse my lips. ”You need a woman who loves you wholeheartedly.”

His lips press against mine. It's so sudden. I become still. He pulls away quickly. His eyes shine as he tucks away strands of my hair behind my ear.

”Kyuri, I like you a lot. I want to build a home with you and Little Hae. I want to grow old with Little Hae and you. Give us a chance. We can get married and find love together with Little Hae.”

Give him a chance for Little Hae?

I don't know why I feel cold. I hope that I am not taking a wrong decision. ”Let's take a chance.”

For the sake of my daughter, I will give this man a chance.
