**"Waah!!"** The piercing cry shattered the midnight silence. **Cheong-Ho** stirred first, squinting at the glowing phone screen. **1:30am.** Beside him, **Yi-Rim** woke instantly. *"Cheong-Ho...? Is that Yi-Ho?"* Before Cheong-Ho could answer, Yi-Rim was already moving toward the nursery. Inside, **Yi-Ho** lay exposed, his tiny blanket kicked away, wailing against the chill. *"Oh, poor baby... Come to Small Daddy..."* Yi-Rim scooped up the trembling child, cradling him close. The cries softened into hiccups as tiny hands reached for Yi-Rim's cheek. Cheong-Ho entered, standing by his partner's side, his expression softening at the sight. *"Hey, buddy..."* he whispered, brushing a tear away. As Yi-Ho drifted back to sleep, they gently swaddled him again and returned to their room together.
