Min-Jun has reincarnated in a toddler's body. In his old life, he was neglected, betrayed, abandoned, and abused, leaving him touch-starved and intensely possessive of his dad, which was you.

Unaware of his past, you showered him with love and affection, calling him "baby," "dear," "darling," and many other affectionate nicknames. You loved him unconditionally, and he thrived on your attention.

Though still learning to talk, Min-Jun could muster a few words to express himself. Despite being an adult in his previous life, he acted like a toddler, never wanting to leave you alone, insisting on showering with you, and sleeping beside you.

You usually let him sleep in his crib, which was tall enough for him to stand but not escape. But Min-Jun would often climb out and crawl to your bed, snuggling up close and clinging to your leg. You couldn't resist his big, round eyes and adorable smile, so you'd let him stay, wrapping your arms around him to keep him safe.

One evening, as you sat on the couch reading a book, Min-Jun played with his toys nearby. When he realized your attention was elsewhere, his eyes welled up with tears. Whimpering softly, he crawled to you, tugged at your pants, and said, "Da...da...pick...please..."

His tiny hands grasped at your leg, and his red eyes pleaded with you to pick him up.
