Chen and Xiumin were eating lunch back in their Boss' mansion; they didn't accompany Kris, Sehun, and Yitao to China, instead they stayed back and to watch over the house. They didn't mind; plus they would have nice, relaxing time together. Chen looked out from the kitchen window, while he drank his cup coffee.

"I wonder how they are doing now."

Xiumin looked up from his plate. "I bet they are fine. I just hope that Boss doesn't mess it up."

The chauffeur looked back at the chef. "You believe it too then?"

"That Boss likes Tao? Then yes." Xiumin chuckled. "You have to admit that they are kinda adorable together."

"Hm." Chen leaned back in his seat. "I think we are better."

The couple smiled and chuckled together.

"Lets just hope that Tao comes back home." Xiumin sighed out.

--- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) ---

Sehun adjusted Yitao in his arm, while still tugging Tao's older brother along. 'Boss, don't mess this up.' Once they were in the main street, Sehun placed the young panda on the ground.

"Uncle, I'm hungry too. I want to eat something." Yitao said as he adjusted his cap on his head.

"Okay…um," Sehun looked both ways. He was clearly unsure where to go about now. He should have been paying attention when the taxi was driving him and his Boss from the airport to Tao's apartment. But instead, he was taking pictures for his blog. The gardener scratched his head and turned back to Luhan, who crossed his arms and glared at the taller. "Ah…do you by any chance know any food stands in the area?"

Luhan huffed and started to walk. "Follow me. There is a stand a 3 blocks from here."

Yitao smiled and ran close to Luhan, grabbing his right hand in the process. The Chinese male was caught off by surprised; he quickly looked down at the smiling panda. Luhan slowly smiled back and started to swing their hands as they walked. Sehun caught up with the other; he grabbed Luhan's left hand, wanting to join in.

"What are you doing?" Luhan gritted his teeth.

"Ah…joining along?"

Luhan tugged his hand away from Sehun's grasp. "You're a grown man. Jeez."

Sehun pouted a bit, but continued to walk. Once the 3 of them made it to the food stand, Yitao pointed out that he wanted a watermelon.

"Auntie, that one." Yitao smiled at the perfect watermelon. "Please?"

Luhan slightly blushed. "S-sure." The Chinese male told the vendor for watermelon; he turned to face Sehun. "What about you? You said that you were hungry."

Sehun shook his head. "I'm fine."

"But you --"

"I was lying." He smiled at the other. "I just wanted my Boss and Tao to…talk some things out. A little excuse to leave."

The Chinese male furrowed his brow. "Okay then." He turned back to the vendor and asked for two small cans of lemonade.

"Thank you." Luhan paid the vendor and the three of them sat on a near by bench Yitao ended up sitting between the two, waiting eagerly for his watermelon. "Here you go Yitao." He handed the young panda the watermelon.

"Thank you!" Yitao started to munch on the watermelon. "Hm! Its good!"

Luhan smiled and handed Sehun the small lemonade can. The gardener eyed the can and back at the Chinese male. "Whats this for?"

"Just take it." Luhan nudge the lemonade can into Sehun's hand. He looked away and started to open his can.

"Thank you."

"Yeah yeah."

It was quiet among them; the sounds of the busy roads and the people chattering as they walked by. Luhan sighed a bit; he was thinking what just happened earlier today.

'Okay, so that was Tao's Boss…and his kid,' The Chinese male glanced at the young panda who continued to munch on the watermelon. 'Yitao…and the weird gardener of his.' He glanced at Sehun, who was looking at his surroundings. 'What did he mean by 'running away'? Tao resigned…why say run away? What if Tao did run away…did something happen? If so…then what happen? Did he hurt Tao?' Luhan's eyes widen. 'Oh my god! He hurt him!' Quickly, Luhan glanced at the gardener.

"You --"

"Sehun."

"What?"

"Sehun is my name."

"Wha? Oh yeah. Um, anyway, what did Tao's boss mean when he said that he ran away?"

Sehun hesitated. "Um, well --"

"He hurt him didn't he?!" He harshly whispered at him, not wanting the young panda to hear.

"N-no! My Boss isn't like that! He would never hurt anyone! I swear to you!"

"Then why did he say that?"

The gardener sighed. "You know…it is Tao's responsibility to tell you. Not me. So, ask him okay."

Luhan as taken back, but nodded. Sehun was right about that, it wasn't his place to actually tell. 'I guess I have to ask Tao sometime then.' The Chinese male looked down at the young panda, who was now staring at him.

"Hi Auntie!"

"Erm…h-hi."

Luhan continued to stare at the young panda; he looked so much like a younger version of Tao. 'Hm. I wonder…' "Yitao."

The young panda, as well as the gardener, turned to face Luhan. "Yes?"

"Can you do this for me?" Luhan placed his can on the concrete and took both his hands, placed them on his cheeks. "Do what I do."

Yitao nodded and placed his watermelon on his lap; once he wiped his hands on the napkin that Sehun gave him, he mimicked what his 'auntie' was doing.

"Can you say, 'bbuing bbuing'?" Luhan asked as he moved his wrists up and down, his hands rubbing against his cheek. Sehun on the other hand, titled his head, wondering what was going on.

"Bbuing bbuing!!" Yitao said towards his auntie. Luhan's eyes widen, freezing at his spot.

"Auntie? Auntie?" Yitao lowered his hands from his cheeks. Growing with worry, he turned to his uncle. "Uncle Sehun! Auntie isn't moving! What happened?!"  Sehun was shocked himself, he just witness probably the cutest thing he was ever seen. "Uncle?! Uncle --"

"Wah! You are so precious Yitao!!" Luhan squealed out, holding onto Yitao as tight as possible. "You are so cute!" He said as he rubbed his cheek against the young panda's head.

"My god…that was precious!" Sehun added in. "I should have recorded that!"

Luhan looked up at the gardener and narrowed his eyes. "What a ert."

"P-ert!?"

"Recording little boys I see." Luhan brought Yitao closer to him, away from Sehun. Yitao on the other hand looked both at his 'auntie' and uncle, unsure what was going on."I didn't know you were into that."

"I-I'm not! I'm not a ert!!" Sehun was burning red. 'How dare he say that! Forget about what I said about him being precious! He is a meanie!!'

"I'm just kidding. Jeez." The Chinese male rolled his eyes. "Don't need to yell." He grabbed his lemonade can and stood up. "We should go back. You want to go back Yitao?"

The young panda nodded. "I wanna see mommy and daddy." He grabbed his watermelon and hopped off the bench.

"Okay then." Luhan smiled; he turned to Sehun, who was standing up as well. "Lets go y."

"I'm not a ert." Sehun huffed at the Chinese male.

"Sure, sure." Luhan rolled his eyes.

--- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) ---

"What do you mean you aren't going back?"

Tao turned around and grabbed his glass that was on the table. "Like I said. I'm not going back." He went straight to the kitchen. Kris was shocked at what the former nanny said to him.

'This is not what was supposed to happen!' "W-wait Tao." He followed the former nanny. "You are really going to say that?"

"Of course." Tao placed the glass in the sink. "I --"

"You know that you are going to make Yitao sad right?"

Tao started to frown. That wasn't fair for him to say that; of course Tao knew that he is going to make Yitao sad, but he was just following what his Boss wanted. The former nanny knew that it was going to be hard for him to be around his Boss when in fact he still hold feelings for him.

"Look, I'm just following what you told me to do."

Kris was confused. "I didn't tell you to run away without telling us! Please, explain to me what you mean because I'm confused here."

Tao scratched his head furiously. "You know, I don't really want to talk about this." He walked passed his former Boss, back to the living room.

"Tao --"

Suddenly the door opened revealing Tao's brother, Yixing, holding onto his cheek.

"Yixing!" The former nanny rushed to his brother, cupping his redden cheek. "My god…what happened to your cheek?"

"Eh," Yixing pouted a bit. "Suho slapped me."

"Suho?" Tao rolled his eyes. "You are still going to that nurse that took care of you? You know you should really just stop." He walked back to the kitchen with Yixing at tow. "He probably doesn't want you." Tao grabbed a hand cloth and ran it in some water. "I mean who would…player." He whispered the last part.

"But I want --"

"Nah! No talking." He placed Yixing on the kitchen chair and started to place the cloth on his brother's cheek. "Jeez, it's really red."

"Hm," Yixing glanced a bit and saw Tao's Boss standing by the doorway. "Who is that?" He whispered to the former nanny. "Your boyfriend?" He said teasingly, out loud for both to hear.

Tao's cheeks turned a dark shade of red, as well as Kris. "No! He isn't" Tao slightly punched his brother on the shoulder. "Why did you say that so loud!?"

"Sorry. Jeez, dad shouldn't have let you take wushu. That really hurt." Yixing whined, rubbing his arm up and down with his free hand. "Anyway," He looked up at Kris, checking him up and down. "You look familiar." Yixing studied him for a bit, trying to remember where he has seen him before. "Oh wait! Aren't you the…the…" Yixing started to snap his fingers. "The fashion designer…Kris, right? One of the top 5 international designers…pretty much wealthy and such?"

"Erm, well, I am a fashion designer…You can say that I am well known." He scratched his cheek.

"Well, damn." Yixing whistled. "How did you manage to work for him?" He turned to his youngest brother, who was shifting a bit.

"Baekhyun…well, his boyfriend mostly helped me out. He works for him."

"Interesting. Well, thats cool. I'm jealous." He turned to his brother. "You get to see all the clothes before they hit the runway."

Tao nodded. "Sometimes. I don't pester him too much about it." He slightly turned pink, as he stood up back to the sink.

"Ah I see." Yixing nodded. "The wife doesn't want to disturb the husband at work." He gave a thumbs up towards Tao. "What a loving person you are."

"Yah! Do you want to die?" Tao glared at the other, making his way towards him.

"No way!" Yixing rushed out of the kitchen, passing Kris on the doorway "Nice meeting you!" With that, he rushed out to his room.

Tao gritted his teeth. 'I'm so going to punch you out Yixing! Just you wait!!' He slowly turned to his former Boss, who was sporting a tinge of red himself. "I'm sorry about my…idiotic brother. He tends to think he is funny, but really…he isn't."

"I-its fine." Kris coughed a bit. 'Wife?!' He watched as Tao walked back to the kitchen, washing his glass. 'Wife huh?'

"You want something to drink?" Tao asked over his shoulder, breaking his Boss' thoughts. "We have tea, water…I think we have some soda if you want."

"Ah, water is just fine." He approached the former nanny, as he was getting a glass of water. Tao opened the freezer and placed ice cubes in the glass.

"Here." He turned and gave Kris his glass.

The door opened and Yitao came in running, looking for Tao and Kris. "Mommy!" He ran towards his 'mother', who smiled at the young panda. Tao knelt down and Yitao lunged forward, hugging his 'mother' tightly. "Did mommy miss me?"

"Very much." Tao rubbed his cheek against  the young panda's head.

"What did you and daddy talk about?"

"Erm, grown up stuff." He replied; brushing Yitao's face. "You are sweaty. Later, you should take a bath."

"Oh! Okay!"

"Tao! You should see what Yitao can do!" Luhan smiled brightly at his younger brother. "It is purely awesome and I taught him!"

"Oh god…nothing…you know…erted right?"

"No way!" Sehun said. "It is cute. Trust me."

"Um, okay." Tao looked at the young panda. "What did uncle Sehun and…erm, auntie Luhan show you?" Kris looked over Tao's shoulder, waiting for his son to show Tao what Luhan taught him. Yitao smiled; he made a fist in his hands and placed them against his cheek. With just movement of his wrist, he titled his head in the process.

"Bbuing Bbuing!"

Tao went wide eyed, while Kris spit out his water on the side. Yitao, along with Luhan and Sehun scrunched their noses.

"Ew…daddy that wasn't nice."

"I'm so sorry!" Kris wiped his mouth. He was embarrassed that he just did that in front of Tao and his brother, but he couldn't help it. What he just witness was probably the most adorable thing he was seen. Well, that and Tao.

"I'll get some paper towels." Luhan jumped over the puddle of water now on their wooden floors.

"Smooth Boss." Sehun whispered in his Boss' ear, only to earn himself a glare.

"That was adorable!" Tao smiled. "You know Yitao, I used to do that too! But I got old." The former nanny pouted.

"You did?" Sehun asked.

Tao nodded. "Yeah." He giggled some. "It was a little thing I did to make my brothers give me whatever I wanted. You can say it was my secret weapon!"

"Show me." Sehun said with interest. He just wanted to see how Tao would do it. Plus, he wanted to see how his Boss would react; if Kris reacted to Yitao's little action, imagine how he would react when Tao does it; put them together, you get the ultimate weapon.

"Sure." Tao did the same, while Yitao followed what his 'mother' was doing.

"Bbuing bbuing!" They said unison; Sehun clapped, while Kris turned away. The gardener chuckled and turned around to nudge his Boss.

"Cute huh?"

A pause, but Kris nodded his head.

"Now I know Boss' weakness." Sehun smirked, as he picked up Yitao and placed him in front of his Boss. "Yitao! Use your cute attack!"

"Eh?" Yitao looked over his shoulder at his uncle. "My what?"

"Give my son back!" Kris took a hold of Yitao with his free arm. "Jeez." Sehun laughed some, while Tao did the same. Luhan came back with paper towels; he ripped a piece and placed the paper on the floor. He started to wipe the water away with his foot, making sure that the floors were now clean.

"Whats so funny?" Luhan asked.

"Oh…you know. Yitao's cute attack." Sehun chuckled. "Super effective."

"Yah…stop making Yitao like a pokemon." Kris adjusted his son in his arm and soon placed him down. "What did you do with uncle Sehun and…erm," He glanced up at Luhan. "A-auntie Luhan?"

"Oh! We went to a food stand 'cause we were hungry and auntie bought be a watermelon!"

"Did you say thank you?" Kris asked as he took off Yitao's cap.

"Yup!" The young panda nodded. "I like auntie! Why doesn't auntie live with us?"

Luhan chuckled softly. 'That is so precious!'

"Ah…'cause Auntie lives here in China. With his father."

By then, Yixing came out of his room, only to stop to see new faces next to his brothers. "Okay…what is going on here. Who is that guy and who's kid is that?" He pointed at the young panda.

"Yixing! Thats rude!" Tao whined. "This is Sehun." He motioned over to the gardener. "He works for Kris. And this is Yitao, his son. Kris' son I mean."

The young panda stared at Yixing with big eyes. "Who are you?"

"Ah…I'm Yixing, Tao's other brother." He knelt down to take a closer look at the young panda. "Wow! Tao he looks so much like you." The former nanny blushed at the comment. Did Yitao look like him? Black hair and same eyes, but that was just a coincidence. "Yeah…kinda seems like," He placed his hands over the young panda's ears. "You had with him," He motioned with his head at Kris. "And this little guy was the result. He is cute though." He said as he smiled at the young panda.

Everyone's cheeks burned, while Yitao smiled brightly, unsure what Yixing was talking about. Sehun bit his lip, trying his very best not to laugh.

"I think you want to die." Tao glared at his older. He tried to make his way over to him, just to give his brother a massive punch or two, but was held back by his former Boss. Yitao placed his hands on Yixing's wrist to bring them down, away from his ears.

"So your mommy's other brother?"

"Mommy? Who?"

"Mommy." He pointed at Tao, making Yixing look up, with a surprised look on his face.

"O-oh. Yeah…I am your mommy's brother. The good looking one." He said with a smile, but earning glares from Tao and Luhan.

"Oh…so you are my uncle then!" He smiled brightly at the other.

"H-hey! Why does he get to be an uncle?" Luhan asked.

"Thats interesting. Why did you say that Yitao? Plus, why call Tao…'mommy'?" Sehun asked, also intrigued with what the young panda said.

"Oh! 'Cause," He went over to Luhan and Tao, holding onto their hands. "Auntie and mommy are pretty. Pretty is for girls right? But auntie and mommy aren't girls, but they are pretty." He looked up at his 'mother' and 'auntie'. "And I call uncle sehun and uncle yixing uncle is 'cause they are good looking like daddy."

"Aww!" Luhan picked up the young panda. "Okay when he called me pretty... that was just so cute!!"

Yixing stood up and brushed his pants while Luhan continued snuggle against the young panda. "So, what are you three doing here? Vacation…or something?"

"Erm…S-something like that." Kris glanced at Tao, who looked away. "Sorry for coming here unexpectedly. Its just that after the airport, we went straight here and...yeah." He said to Luhan and Yixing.

Yixing shook his head. "Nah, not a problem. Say…you said that you guys came unexpectedly, straight from the airport…then, do you guys have a place to stay?"

Sehun shook his head. "I don't think so. Do we Boss?" He turned to towards his Boss, who shook his head.

"I kinda forgot to book us a room. So," He checked his watch. "I think we should go and find a hotel."

"You guys can stay here." Yixing said, making Tao and Luhan turn towards their brother. "I mean, we do have room." He chuckled.

"N-no we don't." Luhan shook his head. "There are only four bedrooms here and you know we can't let other people use dad's room. It would be disrespectful to dad!" The eldest hissed at the middle child. "Plus, where are they going to sleep? We don't have extra mattresses."

"Okay then." Yixing pointed at Sehun. "He stays in your room. And Mr. fashion designer over there, along with the baby panda goes with Tao. They sleep in your beds…obviously." He grinned at the eldest.

"And you get no one?!" Tao said with an angry tone.

"Well, duh! I don't like anyone sleeping on my bed…well, scratch that. Suho is allowed, but sadly, they are not Suho." He shrugged.

"No way I am sharing a bed with that weirdo!" Luhan pointed at the gardener, once he placed the young panda down on the floor.

"Who would want to sleep next to you anyway?" Sehun shot back. "I'll take the couch."

"Ah, I wouldn't do that." Yixing interrupted. "Not good for the back…trust me. Hurts like a mother fu--fanta. Fanta."

"Fanta…" Sehun raised his eyebrow.

"Fanta."

"B-but," Tao was out of words. 'Sharing a bed with Sir?!' He blushed. 'This is a dream right?!' He could feel his heart beat.

"Yay! I get to share a bed with mommy!" Yitao tugged on his 'mother''s hand; he looked over his shoulder at his father, who was also trying to hold onto his blush. "Daddy! We get to share a bed with mommy! Aren't you excited?"

"U-um…s-sure." He coughed a bit.

"And it is settled!" Yixing nodded, giving a peace sign.

"Yixing --" Luhan started, but was immediately caught off.

"Don't be rude now brother." He smirked. "You always said be nice to others." He opened his arms toward Sehun, Kris, and Yitao. "And I'm being nice. Offering them a place to stay. So, it is settled, you guys are staying here." With that, he walked off to the kitchen.

--- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) ---

"Mommy look!" Yitao blew bubbles at his 'mother', who chuckled. Yitao was currently in the bath tub that Tao prepared after everyone had dinner. Since Yitao was sweaty all day due to the heat, Tao wanted the young panda to take a bath. However, Yitao didn't want to take a bath, but the former nanny was able to persuade him with bubbles.

"Okay, Yitao." Tao giggled, grabbing onto a hand towel. "Come here for a minute. I need to clean your face." The young panda nodded and went closer to Tao. As the nanny cleaned Yitao's face, a knock was heard from the opposite side.

"Come in."

The door opened and Kris came inside. "I just came here to give Yitao his bed time clothes. A-actually, Luhan gave them to me." He showed Tao the clothes.

"Those used to be mine." Tao pointed out with his soapy hand.

"R-really?"

Tao nodded. "Yeah…well, it is obviously mine." He chuckled. "It has a panda on it."

"Daddy! Look!" Yitao showed his father his bubbles.

"Wow," Kris knelt down beside Tao and patted his son on the head. "That is cool!"

"Yeah! Mommy showed me."

Tao looked away, not wanting his former Boss to see his blush. 'Too many times today…blushing needs to stop.'

"I'll let you continue Tao." With that Kris stood up and closed the bathroom door. Tao sighed in relief and continued to wash the young panda.

--- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) ---

"Mommy."

"Yes, baby?" Tao folded Yitao's clothes that he wore today and placed them on the drawer.

"Hm," Yitao collapsed on the bed and hugged a pillow. By then Kris was starting to come into the room, only to stop when he heard the two pandas talking.

The young panda looked up at his 'mother'. "Ah…I want mommy to come home." He scooted closer to Tao, hiding his face on Tao's stomach. "I miss mommy."

Tao sighed; if he told Yitao the reason why he left, he still wouldn't understand. He the young panda's head. "I miss you too." He said softly. "A lot."

"Then can mommy come back?"

Kris listened closely; he was hoping that Tao would come home and they can all go back, and he could do something to fix the mistake that he has done.

"I don't know Yitao."

Kris frowned. 'That is not how I wanted it to be.'

"B-but why." He grabbed Tao's shirt and held it tightly.

"It is just hard right now. Okay? Plus…I don't think your father would like me to come back."

'No,' Kris shook his head. 'You're wrong.'

Yitao looked up and shook his head. "No! Daddy has been sad!"

'Er! Yitao!' Kris slightly groaned.

"Sad? Why?" Tao titled his head. 'Why would Sir be sad?'

"Because mommy isn't around anymore."

'B-because I'm not there anymore? Really?'

"Does mommy like daddy?" Yitao asked.

Tao's eyes widen. 'What kinda of question is that?' Surely, it surprised Tao that the young panda was asking such a thing. "W-why are you asking Yitao?" He looked down at the young panda. Yitao shrugged.

"But does mommy miss daddy?"

Kris pressed closer to the door to hear what the former nanny is going to say, but his weight accidentally opened the door, resulting him to fall on the floor, scaring both the pandas.

"Daddy!"

"Sir!"

Both pandas rushed over to the fallen dragon.

"Jeez, are you okay?" Tao asked with worry.

"Y-yeah," Kris rubbed his forehead. "Ow…I-I'm fine."

"Mommy! You should kiss his head!" Yitao pointed his father's head.

"W-what?"

"Yeah," The young panda started to flail his arms. "Remember you said to make all the boo-boos go away, you kiss on the spot that…that you got hurt! Hurry mommy! Kiss daddy on the head!" He went over to Tao and started to push him towards his father. "Hurry or daddy's boo-boo won't get any better!"

"W-wait!" Tao blushed a bit; he started to regret in telling Yitao that boo-boos goes away when you kiss on it. "Okay, okay! I will." Yitao peaked over Tao's shoulder and waited for his 'mother' to give his father a kiss on the head. Tao trembled a bit and brought his hands up to his former Boss' head. By now, Kris was burning; he tried to calm himself, but his heart was beating way too fast for his liking. The former nanny leaned over and placed a kiss on Kris' forehead.

"T-there." He immediately stood up. "All better. U-um, I'll be back." Tao quickly rush out of his room leaving the young panda and the dragon behind.

"Does daddy feel better now?" Yitao asked. Kris turned to face his son; he nodded, making Yitao smile. "Thats good!" With that he gave his father a hug. Kris smiled himself and mentally thanked his son for asking Tao to give him a kiss, even if it was on the forehead.

--- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) ---

It was already bed time and Yitao slept in between his father and Tao. Kris ended up sleeping on the left side, that was close to the wall, since Tao likes being on the right side.

Kris turned over and slowly opened his eyes; he saw that his son and Tao were both sleeping soundly. As quietly as he can, he sat up, looked down at the two pandas. He rubbed his forehead, remembering what Tao did for him. 'His lips were soft.' He watched as Tao continued to sleep, turning his head a bit in the process. Kris leaned over Yitao, to get a good look at the former nanny. He couldn't deny that he was adorable. Who was he kidding, he was beautiful. 'I was wrong. So wrong. I'll get you back Tao. I promise.' He eyes wandered over to Tao's lips. 'I wonder.' Kris waved his hand over Tao's face.

"Tao." He whispered. "Tao?"

Nothing; Tao continued to sleep and Yitao scratched his nose, but still asleep.

'Just a quick one.' He leaned over trembling a bit. Once he was hovering over the nanny's lips, Kris did a mental prep. 'Okay, just a peck is all. Just to feel  his lips again okay? Okay. It is now or never! Or…maybe later in time…if Tao still likes me…but since I'm a dou--I should stop talking now and get this over with!' Kris calmed himself started to lean in.

"Daddy?"

Kris jerked back with now a red cheeks and a fast beating heart; he glanced at his son, who was staring back at him.

"Daddy, what are you do --"

"G-go back to sleep." Kris said softly, as he patted his son's stomach.

"But --"

"Ah, ah. Sleep time." He covered his son's eyes. "Okay? Okay night-night. I love you." With that Kris turned over, facing the wall. He mentally whined. 'Yitao, I love you, but…why did you have to wake up?!'

Yitao sat up and glanced at his father; he looked back at his 'mother' and wondered what his father was going to do. He shrugged and laid back to bed. Before he could close his eyes, he placed a kiss on his 'mother''s cheek; Yitao smiled and snuggled closer to Tao. The former nanny shifted a bit and turned over and wrapped his arms around the young panda.
