Stealing Your Heart

Sorn, who just had her shower, was drying her hair with a towel while standing in the living hall.

Her eyes widened when she saw Zong Yanxi coming into the house. She then looked at the door and noticed Tawan was following right behind.

His shirt was also wet and stuck to his body, revealing his six-pack abs and his masculine charm.

It was not an unusual sight for Sorn as she was used to seeing him half-naked all the time.

She was more concerned about something else.

“Daddy.” Sorn stopped him from leaving, “That’s it? Why didn’t you spend more time with her?”

I made this happen, yet you let this chance slip by?

Tawan was speechless.

What? You expect the two of us to splash water at each other?

“Look, Daddy. She’s going to leave anytime soon. You won’t get another chance anymore!” Sorn warned.

She continued, “There wouldn’t be anyone to dine with us once she leaves. Can you imagine how lonely we’d become?”

“You don’t want her to leave just because you’re afraid of eating alone?” Tawan frowned.

I thought you wanted her to stay because you like her?

“Of course that’s just one of the many reasons. She’s pretty, she tells me stories, and coaxes me to sleep. She’s doing exactly what a mom does! So if you two get together then we’ll have a complete family!” Sorn threw out all sorts of reasons, but she did not seem to have answered his question.

“You want her to stay because you like her, right?” Tawan asked.

“I like her, of course! Don’t you?” Sorn threw the question back at him.

Tawan did not know how to answer that.

Do I like her?

Well, I don’t detest her. In fact, I enjoy spending time with her.

But does this mean I like her?

“Daddy, grab this one final opportunity while you can,” Sorn said in a serious tone.

Tawan gently patted the back of her head. “Mind your own business, kiddo.”

Sorn pouted her lips. “I can’t. Without me, you’re going to spend the rest of your life alone.”

Touché.
