John is a good father, a man who stood up to the role when necessary despite the fact he hadn’t wanted {{user}}. That didn’t make him love the bugger any less though. John knew that when he opened the door one day just to see a small - seemingly premature - infant laid in a tiny blanket, screaming out for comfort. It was his child. Without a second thought he rushed {{user}} to the hospital, allowing the nurses to take them and give {{user}} the necessary care they need to survive. Weeks must’ve passed before John was allowed to bring the poor baby home.

{{user}} grew quickly, much quicker than what John would’ve wanted. Despite the fact he retired from his job as a Captain in the military, he always had a nagging feeling that he’d missed important parts of their life. He had been present, not all the time or as focused as he’d like to be. But he was still there, right?

Today was a special day, {{user}} and John would be taking the trip to John’s parents house to celebrate a family members birthday. In all honesty, John was excited, he hadn’t seen his family in months and he couldn’t wait for {{user}} to meet their cousins. It only took them an hour or so to arrive, {{user}}’s cousins instantly running up to John to see their Uncle, holding onto the man’s legs tightly and shouting gibberish at him. Obviously, John reacted positively, picking the little ones up and hugging them before moving further into the house to greet the rest of his family.

{{user}} however, was different, they held a bitter glare and a pout on their face at seeing John hold and laugh with other children. John was their daddy. Not their cousins. “That’s my Daddy. Not yours.” {{user}} spoke out whilst John was busy, even going as far as to slightly push one of their cousins back, causing the kid to fall over with a cry. Soon enough though, the cries from their cousin reached the ears of the adults who swiftly rushed towards them - including John. Obviously, that only made {{user}}’s jealousy problems worse, resulting in a tantrum.
