Deserved Love
Episode One
Seyoon
I understand your concern but..
Seyoon
It's already the fifth person.
Seyoon
All the four people I have met either didn't get along with Jungmin or just weren't ready for a child..
Auntie
So, do you want him to just grow up without another parent?
Auntie
And you're an omega nonetheless. You need an alpha to protect you😐
Seyoon
...I understand that..
Seyoon
Just setting me up on blind dates aren't going to work..
Auntie
Do you want to try to find someone yourself then?
Auntie
Do you think you can?
Seyoon
(Of course not, which alpha would be kind enough to take in an omega and a child that's not even his?)
Auntie
..Hah, lad, I am just really worried about you..
Auntie
But I guess sister would get mad if she saw me pestering you so much..
Auntie
Alright, fine. You can see through things yourself
Auntie
But if you have a change in mind, contact me, alright?
Seyoon
Minnie, you woke up?
Seyoon
Oh, you want water?
Seyoon
Did you wanna chat with her? Hm?
Seyoon
(Is he still sleepy? How cute 😊)
Jungmin
Papa..will..Jungmin ever get a daddy?
Seyoon
(Where did that come from?)
Seyoon
(As far as I know, he never got along with any alphas that tried to get along with him..?)
Seyoon
Do you want a daddy?
Jungmin
Yes..! Jungmin's dream!!
Seyoon
..? Getting a daddy is your dream? 😅
Jungmin
No..daddy came in my dream!!
Jungmin
He was very powerful!! And tall!!
Seyoon
(Who's he talking about? 😅)
Seyoon
If Jungmin behaves well and eats alot, then daddy will come soon~
Seyoon
Do you still feel sleepy or do you wanna watch cartoons, Hm?
Seyoon
Pfft, alright..*Gently pets him*
Reporter
Moving on to the rising star in the world of business and the person who has rightfully earned the title of 'Nation's Young Master' is a man to be feared! He is Choi Seok—
Seyoon
(Oh no..Jungmin, you're too adorable..🥺)
Seyoon
Watch this while papa makes dinner, yeah?
Seyoon
(When he focuses on something, he focuses really well..)

Episode Two
Auntie
I wasn't expecting you to contact me so early
Seyoon
I am going to try it out once more..
Seyoon
Although Jungmin didn't seem to like any one of them, he seems to really want another parent..
Auntie
Can't blame that kid..he must have noticed his other friends having two parents..
Auntie
Alright, I'll have a chat with this guy again.
Auntie
I'll text you the place to meet and everything in a few minutes, ok?
Seyoon
Thank you so much ^^
Seyoon
(I am scared that..there is absolutely no one who would take us into their wing and love us..)
Seyoon
(But..even if I tried really hard..there will always be an open space..)
Seyoon
(I can't cover up the space of another parent..)
Seyoon
*Kisses his forehead*
Seyoon
(I'll try my best for you, baby..)
_____________________________
Jungmin
? Papa..where are we going?
Seyoon
Somewhere special ^^
Jungmin
Jungmin's really hungry..
Seyoon
Didn't you eat anything at school, Hm?
Seyoon
Alright alright. I'll order you something really good, yeah?
Jungmin
Yayy!! Jungmin wants a burger!!
Seyoon
(I really hope nothing bad happens..)
Seyoon
(This is...a really fancy place, now that I think about it..)
???
Sir has been waiting for you. Please follow me.
Seyoon
*Holds on tighter to Jungmin*
Seyoon
(I just hope he doesn't say anything about or to Jungmin..)
Jungmin
There..*Points at the little screen that shows that they're going up*
???
(Such an adorable kid 😊)
Jungmin
But papa..can Jungmin get a burger here..?
???
Of course, little sir. You can get everything you want ^^
Jungmin
Mister..you're so nice..
???
O..Oh..that's..just my duty..
???
(HOW CAN A CHILD BE THIS CUTE—)
???
(That child is so cute..I wanna pinch his chubby cheeks and give him all the burgers..😭)
Jungmin
Papa..are we here to meet someone..?
Seyoon
(Sigh, I knew he was going to be sad..)
Jungmin
Mister..you're really handsome!! 😧
Seyoon
This must be the wrong table- 😅
Seyoon
I am sorry to approach you like that-
Seyoon
(THE HECK? THATS NONE OTHER THAN CHOI SEOKJAE, THE INFAMOUS BUSINESS EXPERT. THERE IS NO WAY-)
Seokjae
The only person here in this floor is me so I don't think you've got the wrong person
Seyoon
Ah..well..you're right..
Seyoon
Maybe I got the wrong floor—
Seokjae
Please sit down. Let's have a chat.
Seokjae
And thanks for the compliment, kiddo.
Jungmin
Jungmin is not a kiddo!!
Seokjae
So, your name is Jungmin?
Seokjae
Anything you want to eat?
Jungmin
...No! Jungmin won't tell handsome but weird uncle that he wants burger!
Seokjae
Bring every type of burger you have
Seyoon
What?? No no no, just bring the regular one..
Seokjae
Jungmin, what type of burger do you want?
Jungmin
*Pouts* Jungmin doesn't want the bacon!
Seokjae
Yeah, the bacon one please
Jungmin
Jungmin said he didn't want the bacon one!! 😗
Seyoon
Baby..stop picking a fight..😅
Seokjae
I can read minds, bacon burger.
Jungmin
Papa..he called Jungmin a bacon burger— 😭
Seyoon
*Trying not to laugh*
Seokjae
Looks like bacon burger's papa doesn't care
Seokjae
Give me the bacon burger
Seokjae
*Extends his hand*
Jungmin
Papa..no..please..!
Seokjae
I won't eat you, bacon burger
Seokjae
*Takes him in his arms*
Jungmin
..WAHH!!! SCARY!! 😨
Seokjae
Ok ok..I am joking..
Seokjae
Bacon burger gets scared at anything..
Jungmin
*Hic* Don't..eat Jungmin..*Hic*
Seokjae
*Hugs him and rubs his back*
Seyoon
...(Surprisingly..Jungmin calmed down..)
Seokjae
Done crying, bacon burger?
Seyoon
Ah, sorry about that-
Seyoon
You guys are so compatible together..
Jungmin
But..but..creepy man bullies Jungmin! 😨
Seokjae
Don't say that or I might eat you for real, bacon burger
Seokjae
With some ketchup..and mustard and a side of fries
Jungmin
Help me!! *Trying to break free*
???
Excuse me, here is your order
Seokjae
Ah, I arrived really early so I ordered a steak for both of us, is that alright with you?
Seokjae
If you want something else, please say so
Jungmin
..Hmph..*Grabs the burger*
Seyoon
No, it's ok. I was craving some steak today
Seokjae
That's good to hear
Jungmin
Papa..can jungmin have some fries..? *sniffles*
Seokjae
Fries for bacon burger
Seokjae
Bacon burger with fries
Jungmin
Ahh!! Papa..he keeps bullying Jungmin!!
Seokjae
*Gently wipes off any access ketchup*
Seyoon
..? Seokjae-ssi..do you..perhaps have any children?
Seokjae
No, why do you ask?
Seyoon
Jungmin doesn't get along with strangers very well..
Seyoon
And you seem a little experienced..
Seokjae
I guess..I have been wanting to become a parent for a little while..
Seokjae
I always see people having with their loved ones all the time but..I never really got the chance since I was busy with business.
Seyoon
Oh right..you're the number one business man in the country..
Seokjae
That's..nothing too big
Jungmin
Papa..look, Jungmin has red hands!! ^^
Seokjae
*Grabs his hand and wipes it away*
Seyoon
("Nothing too big" says the celebrity..😅)
Seokjae
Here, I cut the steak for you
Seyoon
Oh? Um..thanks, you didn't need to..
Seokjae
Make yourself comfortable..
Seokjae
Anything you want to drink?
Jungmin
...(If Jungmin says he wants banana milk..creepy uncle will call me banana milk..)
Seokjae
(What's he thinking like that?)
Jungmin
Papa wants banana milk!!
Seokjae
Pfft- you sure it's not you, bacon burger with fries?
Jungmin
Jungmin said papa!! deaf uncle!!
Seokjae
Hmm, I don't think so
Jungmin
...*Eyes get teary*
Seokjae
(Oh god..looks like I went over the limit..)
Seokjae
Alright alright, creepy uncle says sorry..
Seokjae
*Bumps his head with Jungmin*
Seokjae
Banana milk, how much ever you guys have
_____________________________
Episode Three
Jungmin
No..Jungmin is full..
Seyoon
Don't fall asleep yet, Minnie!!
Seyoon
Oh, well, he may be three years old already but..I still have to make him burp or he will have indigestion..
Seyoon
(Why is auntie calling?)
Seyoon
I need to take this call..
Seyoon
If it's not much to ask, can you prevent him from falling asleep?? It'll only take a minute!!
Seyoon
*Rushes to the bathroom*
Seokjae
(But he seems so sleepy already..)
Seokjae
*Carries jungmin in his arms*
Seokjae
(Well..I have watched a few dramas on how this is done..)
Seokjae
*Walks around while patting Jungmin on the back*
Seokjae
(Is this not doing it..?)
Seokjae
(Am I supposed to do something else..?)
Seyoon
Yeah..uh..thank you..
Seyoon
(I never thought I would ever see something like this happening..)
Seyoon
How did you know how to do this?
Seokjae
I watched..a few references..
Seyoon
Can I ask you a few personal questions?
Seokjae
I'll go pay first and then we'll talk?
Seyoon
Let me take Jungmin from you—
Seyoon
(Why is denying to come to my arms..?)
Seokjae
That's fine. I can take him with me for the time being
Seyoon
Sorry for the trouble..
Seyoon
(To think the "creepy uncle" he was so annoyed at would suddenly become his favourite..)
???
Thank you so much sir! Please come again!
Seyoon
Ah, I didn't even get to share the bill—
Seokjae
There is no need to Seyoon sii. You gave me your time today, that's more than enough
Seyoon
(Are all alphas this charming..?)
Seyoon
(Moreover, I think he is a dominant alpha. Isn't that like..1% of the population..?)
Seyoon
(What strange fate..)
Seokjae
I hope you don't mind that I tease Jungmin a little bit?
Seyoon
No, of course not..
Seyoon
Actually, he doesn't usually speak this much with people he doesn't know..
Seyoon
Probably because they make him uncomfortable..
Seyoon
Because of the people pointing out how he has a habit of speaking in third person, he grew self conscious of that..
Seyoon
*Pokes jungmin's cheek*
Seyoon
But since you tried another approach, I am sure he felt more comfortable..
Seokjae
I felt.. comfortable with him too..
Seokjae
I have never really liked children but I have always wanted to experience being a parent because from what I have seen, it just seems really nice..
Seyoon
Did you meet other people before this?
Seokjae
..yes..and..somehow I couldn't get myself to be comfortable around those children..
Seokjae
Jungmin seemed to know nothing about me..but they knew all about me..
Seokjae
And it put me in a uncomfortable spot.
Seyoon
(He must have gotten asked to buy them loads of things since they knew he was rich..)
Seyoon
(That's kind of awkward..)
Seokjae
It's late. Would you mind if I drove you home?
Seokjae
We can chat a little bit in the car as well
Seyoon
I..But I have already bothered you so much—
Seokjae
You had a few questions. Let's get them answered
Seyoon
...(He's mature..like I expected him to be 😳)
Seokjae
*Opens the car door*
Seyoon
I'll take Jungmin now..-
Jungmin
Mm..*Grabs tightly onto seokjae's coat*
Seyoon
(How am I gonna get him inside the house at this rate?) 😅
Seyoon
*Releases his pheromones*
Seyoon
Minnie..come on now..
Seokjae
(..What a...sweet smell..)
Seokjae
Oh..um..yeah, I am sorry about that
Seokjae
*Gets in the driver's seat*
Seokjae
What did you want to ask me about?
Seyoon
Well..I wanted to ask why you were looking for someone with a kid rather than just having one for your own..
Seokjae
How should I put this..
Seokjae
Maybe because I haven't had such a good dating history since everyone just wants me for fame and popularity..
Seokjae
So, I thought maybe the ones with a child..would be a little more..mature?
Seokjae
And also because I was a little impatient..
Seyoon
Is it because someone from your family became a father recently?
Seokjae
Yes, my younger brother..
Seyoon
Hmm..it's natural to feel that way..
Seokjae
Then..how about you Seyoon sii?
Seokjae
Are you..comfortable enough telling me who jungmin's real father is?
Seokjae
It's ok if you do not want to say it
Seyoon
He's a man named Kyungsam..we were just starting out our relationship and I immediately got pregnant..
Seokjae
It's a thing of the past anyways.
Seokjae
Um, I can't find any other way to tell you this but..
Seokjae
I am willing..to become jungmin's father and..if everything works out your husband as well..
Seokjae
Was that too early?
Seokjae
I am sorry, I am really..inexperienced at this..
Seyoon
No..that's not what..
Seyoon
How about we see each other for a while..? It might be too sudden for both me and Jungmin..
Seokjae
Sure, I do not want to rush things afterall..
Seyoon
Oh, you can just leave me right here.
Seyoon
Would you like to come up?
Seokjae
But it's late already..
Seokjae
You should probably get to sleep. Doesn't he have school tomorrow?
Seokjae
*Pinches jungmin's cheek lightly*
Seokjae
I have a lot to know and talk about..
Seokjae
Here is my personal number. Please give me a call whenever you're free..
Seyoon
Oops..(I should keep it down..)
Seokjae
Well then, goodnight
Seyoon
Goodnight *Slightly bows*
Seyoon
We're here, baby...
Seyoon
Pfft, did you expect him to come home with us?
Jungmin
...Will we never see him again..? 🥺
Seyoon
So now go brush your teeth and we'll go to bed~

Seokjae
(I should probably buy a child seat for Jungmin..and some blankets and a comfortable pillow..can't forget about some soft toys he could hug..and what about something like a storybook? Oh no, I also cannot forget about some coloured pencils and maybe some—)
???
(Uh..president..what the hell are you exactly buying..? 😶)
