"Taehyung careful! I told you that you can't play catch in here", I said, scolding Taehyung and my four year old son, Daniel.

"But mooooom, it's too hot outside to play", Daniel said.

"Yeah, and we're not throwing the ball too hard. We'll be careful. Jagi, you worry too much", Taehyung giggled and kissed my cheek.

"Eewww", Daniel covered his eyes and ran into his room.

I smiled and shook my head.
Four years ago, my ex boyfriend left me when I told him I was pregnant. He was more interested in his popularity in school than our relationship. Then I met Taehyung. He's been there for me since day 1. He even signed the birth certificate. Daniel does know about his father but he will always see Taehyung as the one person who raised him.

"Sooo...how about I take you and Daniel to the pier. He said he always wanted to play those games at the festival", Taehyung smiled as he wrapped both arms around me.

"I can't afford it. I'm already struggling with school and work", I said, placing my hands on his chest.

"I'll pay for it. I saved up some money. I don't mind spending it. As long as he's happy, I'm okay with it", he said.

"But-"

"No buts....hehe..buts..anyways we'll go after dinner that way he's full when he plays", he said.

"Okay. You're amazing", I smiled.

"I know", he kissed me and poked my sides.

"Can you change Daniel's clothes? He got ketchup all over", I said.

"Yeah. Wish me luck", he laughed and ran towards Daniel's room.

I picked up the toys from the floor and put them in the toy box. As I bent down to pick up Daniel's shoes, there was a knock on the door. I placed the shoes with the rest and opened the door. I froze and widened my eyes.

"Samuel? Why are you doing here?", I asked, still shocked.

"Hey (y/n)", Samuel waved.

"(Y/n), who's at the d-"

Taehyung came towards me with Daniel on his back. He was also shocked that Samuel was standing right in the doorway.

"Appaaaa!", Daniel yelled and wriggled his way off of Taehyung.

He sprinted towards Samuel but I grabbed his wrist and carried him.

"Like I said before, what are you doing here?", I asked him again.

"I came here to see my son", he said.

"After four years? I don't think so", I said.

Taehyung got closer to me and put his arm around me while he glared at Samuel. Samuel did the same thing to him.

"I have a right to see my son", he said.

"He's not your son. He's Taehyung's. He's the one who was there. He was the one who cut the umbilical cord. He was the one who signed the birth certificate", I said, trying not to yell in front of Daniel.

"But I'M the biological father. I still have rights", Samuel raised his voice.

"Can you take Daniel to his room please?", I handed Daniel to Taehyung.

Taehyung carried Daniel and gave one last glare towards Samuel before walking away.

"You can't be serious about him right?? We've been together for five years", Samuel said.

"And you left me when I told you I was pregnant. Do you think it was easy for me to do things by myself at 16? You were being selfish and now you show up expecting me to let you see him? Why don't you just leave us alone and pretend like you never met me? Go back with that girl you were with. I'm sure she'll be desperate enough to let you get her pregnant", I clenched my jaw and spoke through my teeth.

"It's not like you weren't. Fine. Just know this isn't the last time you'll see me", he said before walking away.

I closed the door and sighed. I combed my hair with my fingers and was stuck in my thoughts. Then I felt a pair of arms wrap around my waist. Taehyung's chin was resting on my shoulder.

"You okay?", he asked.

"Yeah. I just don't get why he chose now to see Daniel. Do you think he'll take me to court to get custody of him?", I asked.

"He might. But let me tell you something. Who's been taking care of Daniel these four years? You have. Who had to risk hours of sleep to make sure Daniel slept? You did. Who took Daniel to the doctor when he was really sick? You did. There is no way he'll get full custody of him because even though you struggle with work and school, you spend the rest of your time with Daniel. If he ends up getting visitation rights, then I will be there next to you so you won't be worried. It sucks that I might have to share Daniel but it looked like he really wanted to see his real dad", he said.

"You are his real dad. Samuel is just his biological father. But you have been there for Daniel. I don't think I ever got a chance to thank you", I mumbled.

"For what?", he asked.

"For being their for me and Daniel. I tried to talk you out of it but you stayed. Thank you", I said.

"I wanted to stay. There was something about you that attracted me to you. Maybe it was a pregnancy pul", he joked.

I laughed and got a kiss from Taehyung. He pecked my lips one last time before he spun me around.

"How about we go to the pier right now? Get your mind off of things", he said.

"Sure. I really need the distraction", I said.

"Daniel! We're going to the festival!", Taehyung yelled.

"Yaaaaaaaaaay the festivaaaaaaal!", Daniel yelled as he ran around in his underwear.

So I get rid of one hater and appears another one after. Great😅

Thank you guys for your support! I know it's not easy to deal with these types of things but try not to worry! It's not like they can change who I am. It's okay though. The more people who hate on me, the stronger I get. So I guess thank you to those people. I'm loving myself more☺️
