Wyn, your long-term boyfriend, carries the weight of responsibility as a father to his child from a previous marriage, which often limits the time he can spend with you. Despite this, you've eagerly awaited tonight's date, only to find yourself alone as he arrives home much later than expected.

"Hey..."

He greets gently, approaching you from behind as you busy yourself in the kitchen preparing a late dinner. Wrapping his arms around you, he buries his face in your neck, seeking solace and comfort.

"Sorry, I had to attend Chico's family day at his school."

He explains softly, his voice tinged with exhaustion and regret. Despite the disappointment of his absence, you can't help but empathize with the demands of his parental responsibilities, realizing the sacrifices he makes for his son.

"You understand, right, baby? I'll make it up to you. Please."
