"No! But like.. Do I look good?" Bella asks me. I look at her weird. "Why does it matter? You're just going to the mall. In my opinion I don't care." She looks mad. "You just ruined my mood!" She screams. "Ever since mom died you've been a complete jerk!" She stomps out of my room. I stand there with the mad expression still on my face as I stare into space.

She was right. We've been at each others throats ever since. Why? Why were we like this? I didn't like it. And it didn't help that I've been the reason that this behavior continues. Instead of stopping it I continue it. I've been acting like a teenager. For crying out loud! Bella just asked me if she looked good and I lashed out at her. What is wrong with me!?

I walk to her room. I didn't care about the "don't disturb" sign on the door, I just walked in. I see her sitting on her bed with her hands on her face. I knew she was crying. She looks up at me, her expression was mad. "What do you want!? Get OUT!" She screams. But I just walk over and sit next to her on the bed. She pushes me. "Get out!" She cries. Her head falls on my shoulder. "Get... Out.." She mumbles as she hits my chest with her closed fist.

I feel my eyes watering. I pick her up and sit back as I set her on my lap and wrap my arms around her. "I'm sorry.." I whisper. "I'm so sorry Bella. I'm such a jerk.. I. I just haven't been in the right mind ever since then." I hear her sniffling. Her hands took hand fulls of my shirt.

I pulled her closer to me. "I love you Bella... I love you so much. No matter what, no matter what you say. You're still my baby girl." I kiss her head. Her arms finally wrap around me. "I'm sorry dad.." She whispers. I grin to myself. "Its okay my little Rose." I whisper. "Me too!!!" We both turn and see Sam running towards us. He jumps on the bed and sits on Bella's lap. I laugh. Bella pulls him into her arms and kisses his cheek. "I love you Sam!" She screams and tickles his little belly. I pull them into a tight hug. "Hahaha!!" Sam laughs as he wiggled like a worm. This moment made my heart tingle.

"Dad she's here." Bella rushes over to me from the living room. "Oh. Okay let me come and greet her." She nods and we head down the hall. I hear clapping. Once we set foot in the living room I see Sam doing his little Bomp Bomp dance.

Its this dance he made up, its so funny, but yet so cute at the same time. It was totally a Sam thing. He circles his hips as he throws his hands up in the air and flares his fingers. He turns and sets his hands in the floor and bomps his butt up at down in the air. I place my hand over my mouth trying not to laugh.

I can see it in her eyes how she looks at Sam. It reminded me of how Abby used to look at Sam. She had a smile on her face. How come I found myself looking at her? How come I found myself smiling? What was wrong with me?

He gets up and pelvic thrusts. Just like his dad. "Tada!" He throws his hands up. "Awe! That was so great Sam I loved it." She smiles. "Jisung." Bella calls and she looks our way. Her expression softens. "Hi.." She says when our eyes meet. "H-hi." I hate myself for stuttering.

"I haven't seen you in a long time." Leaves my lips. She nods. "I know. I've been busy with cases and what not.. You know the work life." She shrugs. I nod. "So what time would you like me to bring Bella back?" She asks.

I turn and look at Bella, she just stands there. "What ever time you want.. Its a Saturday." I nod and look back at her. "I won't bring her later than ten." She nods. "Oh that's great. Yeah. Sam and I have errands to run." I say. She looks down at Sam. "Is that right?" She asked him. He nods. "Appa and I are going grocery shopping." He nods. "And then?" She asked.

"Then we go clothes shopping for me." He points to himself. "And then??" She asks with a smile. "And we go get ice cream." He nods. "And then?" She asks. "We come home." He points to the floor. "And then??" He laughs. "There's no more 'and then.'" She tickles his stomach. "And then?" She asks laughing.

I stand there smiling at the scene in front of me. How he threw his legs in the air and arms as he laughed. It was so precious. "Dad.. Stop smiling. You're being weird." I hear Bella whisper. I look at her. "It just makes me smile to see-" ," Her." She cuts me off. I'm taken back. My smile goes away. "No.. I was gonna say.." I stop. Was I going to say that? What's wrong with me?

"Bella. Do you want to go now? I have multiple stores I want to show you." Bella looks at her and nods. "Yes." She hugs me. "I'll see you later dad." She says. Still speechless I force myself to answer. "Okay baby.. I'll see you in a bit. Do you have your money I gave you?" I ask as I kiss her head. She nods. "Bye." She runs out of the house.

I look at Jisung. "Don't worry. I'll take care of her." I smile. "I know.. I'm not worried about a thing." I nod. She waves at Sam. "Bye buddy." He hugs her leg. "Bye." He says. She shoots me a smile. "Bye.." She waves. I smile back. "Bye." I say.

Once she walks out of the front door I find myself still smiling. Sam looks at me. "Let's go appa." He points to the front door. I nod.

"And this." He points to another Iron Man shirt. I laugh. "Isn't it too much Iron Man?" I ask him. He looks at me and frowns. "No. I love him." He says. I chuckle. "We can get more Iron Man another day.. Okay?" I ask. He nods, he's always so well behaved.

I walk down to the shoes. "Appa.." I look at him. "Yes?" I ask. "Do you like Jisung?" My eyebrows go up in surprise. "Like how?" I ask. "Like a girlfriend." He says. My heart stops. I stop at the shoes. I turn into the isle. "Do you like, these or these?" I ask showing him slip on vans and converse. "Appaaa." I look at him and he looks mad, his little arms over his chest.

"I like her as a friend." I say. "Only?" He asks. I was about to explain to him, but I've realized I'm talking to a two year old. "Yes Sam." I say. He nods. "She's mine." He points to his chest. "You already have three at school." I shake my head. He laughs. "But she's the best." He nods. I chuckle. "But she doesn't have cookies in her lunch box." I say, making myself laugh.

"But she has bumps." I quickly stop laughing. He's not saying what I think he's saying. "What bumps." I ask cautiously. He points to my chest. I smack my face. "And booty." He says. I'm going to kill Bella when she gets home. "And who taught you that?" I ask. "Bella." He says. I bite my tongue. I knew it. "Well. Sam. Those things aren't all you should look in a girl." I say setting the slip on vans in the cart and head to the underwear aisle. "Like what appa?" He asks cutely.

"Like personality." I say. "Pertonality?" He asks. "Person-ality." I say again so he can say it correctly. "Personality." He says. I nod. "What's that?" He asks. I push the cart into the underwear isle. "Its something very important." I tell him. "What is it though?" He asks. I pick up a pack of iron man underwear and I grab a pack of tank top undershirts. I also grab a pack of socks.

"Well." I start. How can I explain this to a two year old? Then it hits me. "Its when someone is really nice, all the time. Or always happy, kind to others." I say as I walk over to the shorts and pants area. I look at him. "Like you." I poke his tummy. He laughs. "So a good person." He says. I nod.

He looks like he's deep in thought. "So.. I like Bora because of her cookies." He frowns. "And Jiyu... She's mean.." He looks up at me as I look through the jeans. "I'm mean to kids." I frown at his sad expression. "Its okay Sam. Just don't do it anymore." I say setting a black and a regular blue pair of jeans in the cart. "Okay." He says. "And Meya. She likes everyone. She kissed four boys in our class and five from another class." He looks down at his little fingers. "That's.." He counts his fingers. "Nine." He shows me his fingers. I set two tan shorts into the cart and push the cart to the check out.

"And what does that tell you?" I ask him. He thinks. "I only like Bora." He nods. I chuckle. "And the other two?" I ask. He shakes his head. "No. I don't like them. I'm a one woman man." I laugh. I wonder where he got this language from. "Okay Sam." I say as I set the clothes on the conveyor belt. I think he was deep in thought because he stayed quiet until we got to the car.

Bella's POV

I look at the dress in front of me. "Do you like that dress?" Jisung asks me. I look at her. "Its too short." I say. I've realized that my dad had rubbed off on me, he always wants my dresses or skirts to be a little higher than my knees. I look at her with wonder in my eyes.

"Do you like.. My dad?" I ask hesitantly. She looks deep in thought as she gazes at the rack in front of her. "Like how?" She asks as she slowly moves the clothes on the rack. "Like.." I bite my lip. "Like like my dad." I say. She slowly looks up at me.

"Your father is a strong man. And-" ,"So you like him as a friend. Or as a client?" I ask. She looks taken back. "Look.. Bella.. Busy women like me can't have relationships. I work way too much." She says. I catch on. "So you're saying if you weren't a busy woman, you'd date my dad?" She looks at me surprised. "I.." She doesn't finish.

"Look.. If you're scared that my dad is still hurt about my mom, you're right. He is. But believe me when I saw this." I pause. "The way my dad looked at you today. He hasn't looked at someone that way since he looked at me mom." Her cheeks turn a light pink. "And I'd say you make up your mind up quick cause you got competition." I chuckle. She smiles. "I think you'd look cute in this." She shows me an absolutely adorable yellow dress with little flowers on it.

I try to ignore the fact that she changed the subject. But I knew that she felt something.. Just like my dad. I was a bit scared, but I knew it was for the best for my dads health.

Jungkook's POV

"No." He shakes his head. I frown. "What about this one?" I ask. He laughs. "No." He says again. "Sam. For dear life. Can you decide. We don't have all day." He points to the box of knock off fruit loops. They're called "Fruity Rings" and it had a picture of a polar bear instead of a Tuscan. "Why not the real brand?" I ask as I point at the box of fruit loops.

He shakes his head. "Polar bear is better." He reaches for the box. I hand him the box. He takes it and sets it next to him. "What next appa?" He asks. I grab a box of honey nut cheerios and a box of lucky charms and set them in the chart.

"Produce." I say. "Produce!" He says happily. I'm sure he didn't know what that meant, but its cute. "And that!" He points to a random spot in the store. Actually.. It wasn't random, he was pointing to the ice cream isle.

"We're eating ice cream after." I tell him. "Oh okay." He grins and looks forward, which was at me, and just stares. He'd pass for a doll. He was so darn cute, it hurt my heart in a good way. Sam was one of those kids that a lot of people would call cute, adorable, and handsome. And he's so talkative that he'd talk back to those people and be like, 'thank you, I know.' Well, at least he had manners. It sounded like someone I know.. But I couldn't couldn't put my foot on it.

I start grabbing the things we need quickly, we've already been here for almost an hour. Luckily I had told Sam to pick a box of cereal quickly because believe me, if you gave Sam the time, he'd waste it all on deciding on one thing. Period.

"We're gonna get milk and then we'll go get ice cream okay?" I ask as I walk to the dairy aisle. "Okay appa." He looks down as he swings his feet as they swayed in the air. I grab the milk and head for check out. "Appa.." I look at him. "Yes Sam?" I ask. He looks deep in thought. "When is mom going to heaven?" Automatically my legs stop. I had totally forgotten about that. How can I be so horrible!? "Appa." He takes me out of my trans.

"Um.. Soon.." Is all I can say even though I didn't know for myself. I continue to walk to the cashier. "I'll miss her." He says. I nod as I set the groceries on the conveyor belt. "Met too buddy.." I say.

**

Bella's POV

We walk out of the store with two bags in each hand. I look at her. "This is nice." I say. She looks at me and smiles. "It feels good to hear that, I'm glad you're enjoying this just as much as I am." Jisung says. "Do you have.. A boyfriend?" I ask. She chuckles. "No. I don't." She says. I nod.

"Is there something wrong with my dad?" I ask. Her smile slowly goes away and she bites on her bottom lip. "I'll tell you one thing." She says, I prepare myself for what's she's going to say. "Your father is rather hot." She says chuckling. I screech. "So you like my dad!?" I ask. She just laughs. And I knew I was right.

**

Jungkook's POV

"And sprinkles." He says. I put a little bit of sprinkles. "More!" He screams. I look at him with a mad expression. "More.. Please." He says in a quieter tone. I smile and put a little more. "More appa." He says. I put a little more. "Let me do it." He throws his arms up for me to pick him up and I do.

"Like this appa. Like this." He says grabbing the little sprinkles shaker and shakes it horribly fast. Most of the sprinkles weren't even getting on the his bowl, they were falling on the counter and on the floor. "Okay! Okay Sam." I grab it and set it on top of the counter away from his reach. "Now what do you want?" I ask.

"That and that and that." The last thing he pointed at wasn't even a topping, it was the napkin holder. He was just pointing at random things. "No. For your ice cream buddy." He laughs. "Worms!" He points to the gummy worms. I use the utensil and slap a bundle of sour gummy worms and set it on the ice cream. "That's it that's it." He whines. I laugh. I pass him a worm and he takes it, I set him on the floor.

I grab my ice cream that was already done and his, "Come on Sam." I say walking over to the cashier. I set the bowls on the weighing pad. I look down at him, he just stands there sucking the sugar off the gummy worm. I ended up paying almost $20 for our ice cream. I walk over to a table and he follows along.

It felt nice to have time with my son, but I wondered what Bella was doing.

**

"I'm tired appa." Sam says rubbing his eyes as he sat across from me in arm chair in the living room. We had a long day so I wouldn't blame him for being tired. "Okay buddy. Let's get you cleaned up and we'll be you ready for a nap." I say. He yawns and nods.

I turn off the television and I walk over to pick him off, he raises he hands and reaches for me. I pick him up and head over to his room. I grab his Iron Man pajamas and walk to the bathroom. I set him down, his eyes are closed and he looks like he's already asleep. How the heck is he standing up? "Sam?" I call his.

His eyes slowly open and he looks at me and smiles. "Tired.." Is all he says. I let his stand there for a while so I can get the bath ready. While we wait I set him on my lap and let him sleep. I love him so much. I created this, this was mine. I run my fingers through his hair. I turn off the water and make him stand up again. "Sam... buddy." I call him. He opens his eyes and looks at me.

"You have to stay up now buddy. Just for a little bit." I say. He nods. I start to take off his clothes and set him in the tub. He still looks like he's falling asleep. I grab the cup we always used since him and Bella were babies, well Sam's still a baby kinda but you get the point. I squirt some shampoo in his hair and scrub. I grab the elephant shaped fufa and put body wash on it. "Sam here." I say handing it to him.

I'm completely surprised when his face goes forward and goes into the water. His face right away shoots up and he looks at me scared. "Oh no." He says. I try my absolute best not to laugh, I'm so mean. "See what happens when you don't stay awake?" I ask. He nods and takes the fufa from my hand and scrubs his own body. Once I rinse him off I take him out of the tub and dry him up.

He managed to stay awake but I can see he was fighting it. I quickly dress him and take him to his room. Once I lay him in his bed he's out like a light bulb. I kiss his head and leave the room.

I stand outside his door unknowing what I should do. Just then I see her. She walks pass me and into our room. Was this it? Was today the day she leaves me? I cautiously follow her into the room.
