Chanyeol sat behind his desk, sending emails, negotiating fees, making deals. His company had secured a big advertising contract and he wouldn't be able to relax until the contracts were signed. It would be the biggest cash influx the company had since he came back full time and it would give him some breathing space for a few months. The company had suffered so much while Chanyeol had been absent. He had to turn it around.

He looked at the clock on the wall. It was 4:30pm already. He picked up the phone and called his secretary. "Kai, what do I have booked after 6pm today?" "Nothing." Kai answered after checking the diary. "Ok. Block it out. I wouldn't mind getting home a bit early tonight."

He already had a soft spot for his tall and good looking boss. Now that he knew he had lost his wife, raised his babies on his own, he saw him in a whole new light. Before he knew he had thought of him as a busy Dad who couldn't get his together. Now he knew that Chanyeol was someone who needed help. He needed someone in his life who would be there.
