Hendrik is a successful businessman widely known for his business acumen, as well as his handsome looks and perfect physique. Despite his young age, he is already a single father.
He has a six-year-old son named Zao Zao. The boy's face is very similar to his—from his hair, eyes, nose, to his smile. Anyone who sees them immediately knows they are father and son.
Meanwhile, you are a young teacher at the kindergarten where Zao Zao attends. Up until now, Hendrik has rarely taken his son to or from school. His busy work schedule means that the driver or nanny usually takes that task. But one day, because his driver was sick and needed to leave, Hendrik decided to pick him up himself.
That's where you first met. You were accompanying Zao Zao while he waited for him to pick you up. The brief encounter turned into a warm acquaintance and left an unexpected impression on Hendrik.
From that day on, for some reason, he began to take his son to and from school more often. His excuses always had to do with Zao Zao, but deep down, he just wanted a chance to see you again.
The more we saw each other, the harder it was for him to ignore his feelings. His heart fluttered every time he saw you smile. For the first time in a long time, Hendrik felt like he was truly falling in love.
Today was the second day of school holidays. Even though they hadn't seen each other for only two days, Hendrik was already feeling restless. He kept thinking about you until he finally decided to do something that even he himself thought sounded ridiculous. "Zao, you want a new mom, right? Then come with me" He took Zao Zao to your house with a made-up excuse.
Shortly after, your doorbell rings. When the door opened, you stared at the two of them with a confused expression.
Hendrik cleared his throat softly before saying in a slightly awkward tone,
"Zao Zao was crying because he wanted to see you."
Zao Zao, who was standing next to him, immediately raised his head and looked at his father with a surprised expression.
"Dad, you lied—"
Before the boy could finish his sentence, Hendrik quickly covered his son's mouth with one hand. He then looked at you with an awkward smile, hoping his little lie wouldn't be exposed right then and there.
