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

Tao was standing on top of the mantel shelf, on his tippy toes, to place the ‘happy birthday’ banner on the fireplace in the living room.

“Tao…why don’t you just put it on the header? You don’t have to put it up there you know.” Xiumin said with a worried look on his face. “You might fall.”

Tao looked over his shoulder. “I’m almost done Xiumin hyung.” He went back to pinning the banner on the fireplace. He was deeply in concentration, trying to make the banner as perfect as possible. He didn’t even know that more people came in the living room.

‘I just need to…pin this…h-here and --’ “Whoa!”

Tao lost his balance and fell backwards; instead of hitting the granite floors, he was caught and now was in the arms of his Boss. The nanny slowly opened his eyes; he formed a tinge of red when he noticed that his Boss was now holding him bridal style. Before Tao could say anything, they felt a flash of a camera. Immediately, Tao looked over and saw Sehun with a straight face, looking at them and pressing his camera button multiple times, making the camera flash every time.

“Sehun!!” Tao tried to look away. “Sehun stop taking pictures!! Erase them all!”

The gardener looked at his shots and smirked. “No way. These are good.” He ran out of the living room and Tao tried to call for him, but it was too late. Tao huffed, but decided to wave it off.

‘It’s not like he is going to submit it to anything…I’ll let this slide.’ Tao nodded and agreement with himself; he blew some strands away from his eyes. He looked up and Kris was staring down at him; he realized that he was still in the arms of his Boss.

“I…erm…Sir? Can I…g-get down now? Please?”

Kris blinked and noticed that he was still holding him. “R-right. Sorry about that.” He placed Tao gently on the ground and the nanny brushed his pants, hiding his burning face. Sehun came back, placing a new SD card in his camera; he smiled at everyone and took a picture.

“Yah! Sehun stop that.” Tao blocked the camera flashes.

“Sorry, can’t help it.” He chuckled and looked at the picture he took.

Soon they heard little foot steps coming towards them; Yitao was all dressed for the day and he tilted his head in confusion. Chanyeol nudged Chen; they said happy birthday to Yitao in unison. Xiumin rushed to the kitchen and grabbed the cake that Tao picked out from the cook book.

“Happy birthday Yitao! I made you some cake.” He showed the young panda the cake in which he jumped with happiness.

Tao went over to Yitao and picked him up. “Happy birthday Yitao! How old are you today?” Yitao proudly showed his nanny how old he was with his hand. “That’s right Yitao! You are so smart!” He put Yitao down. “You know…your father has an awesome gift for you.” Tao moved aside and Kris approached his son; he knelt down and patted his son’s head.

“We are going to Lotte world today.” Yitao’s eyes grew. “Are you excited?” The young panda nodded his head fast and jumped with excitement. He gave his dad a hug and Kris chuckled. “It will just be you and I. So whatever you want…just tell me okay?”

Yitao pulled back and gave his father a head tilt. He looked over at Tao and rushed over to him; he grabbed his hand and started to pull him towards Kris. Chanyeol smiled at the cute action, while Chen started to chuckle and Sehun nudging Xiumin, who rolled his eyes, but nodded. Tao wasn’t sure why he was letting the young panda pull him, but he knew he was starting to feel a little heat come on his cheeks.

“Y-Yitao…it’s just going to be you and your dad today. I can’t come with you.” Tao said softly, but the young panda shook his head and continued to tug on the nanny’s hand.

Chen chuckled some more. “I think Yitao wants Tao to go with you guys.”

Tao looked at the young panda, trying to explain to him why he can’t go with him and Kris.

“That is okay Tao. You can come.”

Tao glanced at his Boss. “Wha…I don’t want to impose. It’s suppose to be your guys’ day anyway I --”

“Tao. You are going.” Kris said as he stood up and brushed his pants. “Besides…it will be fun.”

“B-but what about the oth--”

“Oh don’t worry about us.” Chanyeol said as he slung his arm over Sehun’s shoulder, who just nodded back. “We will be fine. We get the day off then…right Boss?”

Kris chuckled and nodded. “Yes…you guys get the day off while we are in Lotte world. If you guys are planning to go out…just don’t forget to lock the door okay.”

“Sweet!” Chen said with enthusiasm.

Yitao smiled and looked at his nanny. Tao just couldn’t decline while looking at the young panda’s face.

“Tao,” The nanny looked at his Boss. “I suggest you get ready.”

“R-right!” Tao looked at Yitao. “I’ll be right back.” The nanny rushed to his room. The young panda was about to follow, but Kris stopped him from doing so. He lifted him in his arms and wagged his finger at him.

“Lets wait in the kitchen…and you need to eat breakfast.”

Yitao whined, but Kris promised him that Tao will come soon when he is done changing. With that Kris carried his son in the kitchen with everyone at tow.

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

Tao brushed his hair and made sure that it was perfect. He wore a red pullover with black straight-fit pants. He tied his shoes and grabbed his hat and scarf that was hanging on his table. He checked himself at the mirror to make sure he looked good. With a nod, he left his room, closing the door behind him.

The nanny went to the kitchen and saw Yitao popping his head up; he smiled at his nanny and ran towards him. He had some yogurt on his face, in which Tao chuckled.

“You have something on your face. Come here.” Tao lifted the boy on the counter and grabbed a napkin. He started to wipe the yogurt off his face; the young panda giggled some and kept moving around. Tao chuckled himself and once done cleaning the young panda, he placed him down on the floor. Yitao went back to his seat started to eat again.

“Here you go good sir.” Xiumin presented Tao with a plate of breakfast.

“This looks so good! Thank you for the food!” Tao grabbed the plate and headed for the table. He sat next to Yitao, who continued to feed himself. Everyone chatted about their plans for the day while Tao and Yitao ate their breakfast. Kris watched them while drinking his cup of coffee milk; he smiled at his son and the nanny; their smiled made him smile. He mentally chuckled when Yitao ate messily once again, making Tao wiping his face clean. Once clean, they both chuckled and resumed back to eating.

‘That is…adorable.’

Kris got up and placed his now empty cup in the sink.

“Tao, I’ll be right back okay? I forgot my wallet in my room.”

Tao nodded; Kris left the kitchen and headed up stairs. While walking up the steps, his cell phone rang.

“Hello?”

“Boss Kris? It’s Hayi.”

“Oh, Hayi…anything wrong?”

Hayi was one of Kris’ friends and his secretary. She always made sure that Kris was on time and his things were professionally presentable, especially when showing his designs to potential buyers.

“No. Just calling to tell you that I have everything all set for the meeting today.”

‘Oh yeah…the meeting.’

“And…and I informed Youngbae to gather the designs that you already made to show them. Oh and --”

“Hayi.”

“Hm? Yeah?”

“I won’t be attending the meeting today.”

Kris heard her stop moving. “Wait…what? Boss Kris…these are --”

“I know…just tell them that the meeting will be tomorrow. And tell them as an apology…I’ll take them out to dinner after the meeting.”

“B-but Boss…they wanted to meet you today. Some can only meet you today and…hello? Boss? Hello?”

Hayi looked at her cell phone and realized that Kris hanged up on her. She sighed. “Guess I have no choice.” She looked through the glass and saw the potential buyers waiting for Kris to show up. Hayi opened the door to the meeting room. ‘Well…here we go.’

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

Kris placed his cell in his pocket and tried to find his wallet. He went down stairs and as he was going down, he stopped before he could reach other bottom; he saw Tao kneeling down to be at the same height as his son. He was fixing Yitao’s outfit, smiling happily at him and the young panda doing the same. Kris coughed to get the nanny’s attention, in which it did. Tao stood up and smiled at his Boss. Kris felt his cheeks heat up a bit, but quickly shook it off.

“Ready?” Tao asked.

Kris nodded. “Guys…we will be going now!”

“Have fun!!” Sehun yelled from the kitchen.

The three went out the door; Kris opened the door for Tao and walked over to his side. Tao buckled in Yitao and made sure that he was secure.

“Uh, Tao…I think he is fine now.” Kris said while looking back and forth at him and his son.

“Just making sure. You may never know.”

Kris chuckled; he the ignition and waited for Tao to be seated.

“Ready?”

Tao nodded.

“Can you please put your seat belt on? I don’t want anything to happen to you.”

“O-oh right!” Sorry!” Tao fumbled with his seat belt. Kris gave a small smile and started to back up from the driveway.

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

Once there, it was already filled with people and Yitao started to get excited. Tao looked back to face Yitao. “You ready Yitao? Excited?” The young panda could only nod and clapped his hands. The nanny smiled at the young panda’s excitement. He was also excited being it as his first time at Lotte world.

Kris was able to find a parking spot close to the entrance. They got out and before they could go inside to the indoor theme park, Kris went through his car cubby and took out his designer shade glasses. As Tao was fixing his hat, he looked over at his Boss.

“Why are you wearing shades?” Tao looked up at the sky. It wasn’t sunny, but cloudy. “It’s not that sunny. Plus, isn’t Lotte world inside?”

Kris nodded and closed his car door. “I’m famous remember?” He locked his door and placed his key in his pocket. “So to prevent from others noticing.” He pointed to his shades. “I gotta wear this.”

“Oh…that’s true.” Tao nodded and grabbed a hold of Yitao’s hand. They started to walk, with Kris on the other side of Yitao. The nanny glanced at his Boss and noticed that the choice of outfit was way too nice, especially for a themed park. Kris ended up wearing a blazer jacket with nice pants and shoes.

‘That is way too nice. Even if it looks good on him.’ Tao chuckled. ‘I wonder why he is dressed so nice. Its Lotte world. He should’ve dressed casual.’

“Hm, what if people recognize you?”

“They won’t. Trust me.”

“Hm. Alright then.” Tao mentally chuckled and shook his head. “Whatever you say Boss.”

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

The three of them walked, but before they could even go even further, a rush of people came up to them, yelling over each other to get autographs and pictures with Kris. By reflex, Tao picked up Yitao and soon they were pushed away from his Boss. Once away from the rushing people, Tao looked back and furrowed his brow.

“Whoa…guess your dad was wrong Yitao.” Yitao looked up at his nanny. “Your dad has many fans see.” Tao pointed at the crowd surrounding Kris and Yitao tilted his head. “Guess we have to wait for your dad.” The young panda puffed his cheeks, making Tao chuckle; he poked Yitao’s cheek softy. “Don’t be like that Yitao. It will just be a few minutes.”

Tao placed Yitao down; he looked back at his Boss’ state. Surprisingly, instead of showing off his anger towards the people, yelling at them for ruining his time with Yitao and Tao, he displayed a smile at them. Tao slightly pouted, but decided to shake it off. He turned back to the young panda and smiled. “Why don’t we go in one of the stores hm? When we come back, your dad might be done.” Yitao nodded and grabbed a hold of Tao’s hand.

After awhile, Kris finished his last signing and handed it to the woman in front of him. “Here you go.”

“Thank you! Sorry for taking your time.”

Kris shook his head. “Ah…it’s fine.”

The woman nodded. “Well, thank you. “ She motioned the paper that Kris signed. “For signing this. Seriously, I love your designs.”

“Thank you.” He nodded.

The woman smiled and waved goodbye. Kris sighed a bit and looked around to see if Tao and his son were sitting around, but he couldn’t find them. ‘Hm…guess they went ahead.’ Kris was about to call Tao, but realized that he never got his cell number. ‘Damn…note to self, get Tao’s cell number.’ He placed his cell back in his pant’s pocket. ‘Might as well stay here and wait.’ Kris went to the nearest bench and sat down. If only his fans didn’t crowd around him, he wouldn’t have lost them. He closed his eyes and rested his head in his hands.

While his eyes were close, he felt someone patting on his legs. He looked up and saw that it was his son. “Yitao?” Kris opened his arms and Yitao took the opportunity to jump forward and give his father a hug. “Where is Tao Yitao?” The young panda looked back and pointed. Kris followed where he was pointing; he soon saw Tao holding onto a bag. Kris stood up with Yitao in his arms.

“Tao? What did you get?”

Tao gave the bag to his Boss. “It is for you.”

“Me?”

“Yup.” He nodded. “Um, they are clothes. I figured that…maybe you can change into casual clothes. Since you are wearing such formal clothes…you know.” Tao started to scratch his cheek. “I figured that you might want to change so…other people won’t be able to recognize you.” Tao opened the bag and showed Kris what was inside. “It’s just a sweatshirt and sweatpants. I-I’m sorry if they are not the right size. Oh and I got you a cap. Maybe it would be better to hide you than the shades. ”

Kris grabbed the bag with his free hand and handed Yitao to Tao. He smiled at the nanny.

“Thank you.”

Tao looked down and nodded. “It was nothing. I just don’t want people interfering anymore with your guys' time.”

Kris chuckled; he looked around for a restroom and told Tao that he would be changing now.

“We will be right here.”

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

Once Kris was done, he checked himself in the mirror to make sure that he looked good. He took one more look and nodded in approval. He exited the restroom, holding the bag with his other clothes inside, and tried to find the nanny and the young panda. He spotted them sitting and quickly went over to them.

“They fit perfectly.” Tao said as he got up from his seat.

“Yeah they do. Thanks again…I‘ll be sure to pay you back --”

“No need.”

Kris looked at the nanny and furrowed his brow. “But you bought this and --”

“It’s fine.” Tao grabbed his Boss’ wrist. “Let’s just have fun now. Right Yitao?” Yitao jumped and happily grabbed his father’s other hand. “And if you still have the need to pay me back, just buy me a snack…or better yet, buy me and Yitao a snack.”

Kris chuckled. “Fine. Deal then.”

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

The three of them went through Lotte world, riding the monorail and even attending a show. After awhile, Yitao tugged on Tao’s sleeve and rubbing his tummy.

“Do you have to go to the restroom?” Yitao shook his head. “Hm…stomachache?” He shook his head again. “Hungry?” Yitao nodded. “Oh okay.” Tao turned to face Kris; he informed him that the young  panda was hungry and that they should stop by a small café or food stand.

“Well, we can stop here.” Kris pointed at a small cake and sandwich shop. Tao nodded and carried the young panda in his arms. As they entered they were quickly seated and ordered their food. Tao and Yitao shared a piece of cake, while Kris just stuck with his water. And as promised Kris paid for their snack.

Yitao poked his cake and showed it to his dad. Kris just nodded, but Yitao waved the piece of cake, telling him to eat it. Kris chuckled and leaned over; he took a bite of the piece of cake and munched on it.

“It’s good.”

Yitao nodded and resumed back into eating. Tao smiled and looked at his Boss.

“Thank you…for bringing me along.”

“No problem Tao.” He took a drink of his water. “It’s been so long since I’ve been here. It’s nice coming back.”

“It my first time being here. I’ve always wanted to come, but I never had the time.”

“Well, now you can cross it off your list.” He smiled at Tao, who looked down to prevent Kris from looking at his forming red cheeks. The nanny continued to eat his snack.

After they were done, they continued to go around Lotte world. Yitao pointed at the merry-go-round and tugged on his father’s hand.

“Want to go there?”

The young panda nodded; they made their way to the merry-go-round. The operator of the ride told them that they have one seat, but since Yitao is still young, he needs to be held onto while he is on the ride.

“Why don’t you go Sir and hold Yitao?”

Before Kris could respond, the operator of the ride told them that Tao could go on the ride too.

“You can hold on your son too, just be on the opposite side of him.”

Tao slightly blushed. “H-he…he isn’t our son. I’m just a friend.”

“Oh…I apologize. Um, you still can go if you wish.”

Tao was about to decline, when Kris grabbed onto Tao’s hand. “He will ride along.” He gently pulled Tao towards the ride and walked to a seat on the merry-go-round. Tao on the other hand was trying his best to steady his breathing and control his blushing.

‘His hands…are soft.’

Kris placed Yitao on the horse seat and placed the bag that he kept carrying around between his feet. He held onto Yitao, supporting his back. Tao walked to the other side of Yitao and shifted a bit. He placed his hand on Yitao’s back to also support him, but instead of placing his hand on the young panda’s back, he placed it on top of Kris’ hand. He quickly pulls back and apologizes.

“It’s fine Tao.” He said calmly.

Yitao looked back and forth at his father and his nanny with wide eyes. Unsure what was going on, he just bounced up and down in his seat with a happy smile on his face.

Once the ride was over, Kris picked up Yitao and grabbed the bag with his free hand. They saw how Yitao was tired now and decided that it is best to go home. The young panda rested his head on his father’s shoulders and yawned a bit.

They arrived at the car and Kris handed Tao the bad; he quickly searched for his keys and opened the door to the car. Kris was about to place Yitao in his seat when a voice caught both their attention.

“Thank you…daddy.”

Both Kris and Tao went wide eyed; the looked at each other and back at the sleeping young panda.

“H-he…d-did he just say…”

“He said ‘thank you’!” Tao said as softly as he could, but inside, he was way too excited. He finally heard Yitao’s voice and it was cute in his opinion. He turned back to his Boss and noticed that he was smiling and droplets were forming in his eyes. Tao knew that this is what Kris was probably also waiting for, to hear his son speak again.

“Tell me…t-this is not a dream.” Kris said as he kept staring at his son.

“It’s not. It is real Sir.”

He smiled. “Good.” He sighed and his son’s cheeks. “Good.”
