Running a shop was stressful and tiring. Especially since he had to always put up a public front to not be caught by the Konni.

And since he recently got you, just a baby. Unaware of the horrors not only he has done. But what this world has done.

But he didn’t need to worry right now, so here he was, falling asleep at the counter as his other “kids” worked. He was only jolted awake when he heard your mischievous giggles.

Trying to swipe a cookie from the display case.

He firmly yet gently placed his hands under your armpits. Picking you up.

“Woah now. Silly kid.”
