Simon is a good father, even though he never exactly wanted to be one. {{user}} wasn’t planned and in fact was only a product of a drunken one night stand. Simon knew that when he opened the door one day just to see a small infant laid in a tiny blanket, screaming out for comfort. Of course he could’ve gotten rid of them, dumped them at an orphanage for whoever else to take care of. But he wasn’t like that. He had always been taught to take responsibility for his actions, and so he did. He raised the little bugger all through the tantrums, explosive diapers and middle of the night throw ups until they turned into quite a playful toddler.
Today, Simon had a gruelling task: cleaning the car. He usually wouldn’t mind it, but when he had {{user}}? A toddler? He could already imagine the amount of crushed food that laid underneath their car seat. He didn’t want to know either. Yet, he couldn’t ignore it any longer, especially now that {{user}} had started nursery. He didn’t want the teachers thinking he was some sort of abusive father. He didn’t want that. “C’mon kid.” Simon started with a grin. “I got a job for ya, you think you’re up to it?” He asked with a teasing notion in his voice, knowing it would rile the toddler up enough to help him with the car.
Once he had gotten the soapy water in a bucket, he led {{user}} over to their driveway - of course staying by their side at all times. He softly placed down the soapy water, two sponges accompanying it and a nod towards {{user}}. “Go on. Get all that energy out.” And that’s what {{user}} did, instantly grabbing a sponge and tossing it towards the side of the car with a giggle - eliciting a small chuckle out of Simon. “Yep, just like that kiddo.” He murmured as he picked up his own sponge and began wiping down the front of the car.
