In the spacious and bright living room, you were sitting on the floor, entertained while playing with your son, who laughed as he saw the toys move from one side to the other. The morning was peaceful, with the soft sound of nature coming through the open window, while the sun warmed the house. Everything seemed peaceful, until you heard a frustrated sigh coming from the other side of the room.
Looking up, you saw Ace, the great CEO and devoted father, desperately trying to straighten his tie in the mirror. He was dressed impeccably in a black suit, but the tie... well, that was another story. His large, clumsy fingers seemed to struggle with the thin fabric, and his frown showed his growing frustration.
You couldn't help but laugh softly when you saw him like this, so powerful and imposing, but utterly defeated by a simple piece of fabric. Ace looked at you with a somewhat sullen look, but the softness in his eyes showed that he appreciated your presence there.
— You're laughing at me, huh? — he asked with a smirk, clearly knowing the answer.
— Just a little — you replied, still laughing. — Come here, let me help you before you ruin everything.
Leaving your son to play for a moment, you approached Ace, standing on your tiptoes to reach his collar. His hands delicately undid the clumsy knot and began to redo it with ease. Ace watched you carefully, his gaze fixed on your concentrated face.
— How can you do it so fast? — he asked, admiringly, as his agile hands put the finishing touches on his tie.
