THE BLOOD transfusion was a success.
Fortunately, Gunwoo’s body didn’t react negatively to Lee Wonjae’s blood.
It was also a relief that Lee Wonjae was really fit and healthy— the older Omega only needed an hour of rest, and he was already energetic again.
Appa seems to be determined to play with Gunwoo, after all.
"Grandpa, is it true that you play golf?" Gunwoo asked his Omega grandfather excitedly. "Gunwoo wants to be good at golf, but Dad doesn’t know how to play!"
Aigoo.
Garam laughed awkwardly after Gunwoo ’snitched’ on him.
He was slightly embarrassed when Lee Wonjae chuckled.
I know that Appa isn’t making fun of me, but I still feel embarrassed that I didn’t learn when Appa taught me how to play golf before.
"One of Gunwoo’s classmates in daycare has a father who plays golf," Garam explained to his Omega father-in-law. "On that child’s birthday, his parents invited the whole class to the indoor golf place that they rented. There was a course for kids there. And Gunwoo lost to his classmate..."
Lee Wonjae’s eyes twitched.
Aigooya.
"He teased Gunwoo and called Gunwoo a loser," Gunwoo complained to his grandfather, pouting. "That’s why we’re not friends anymore!"
Yeah, that was true.
Garam didn’t force Gunwoo to stay friends with someone who kept calling him a ’loser.’
I tried talking to the child’s parents and asked them to tell their son to stop picking on Gunwoo, but the parents just laughed at my concern. They even said that their son was just being a child, and that I was just overreacting.
That was one of the reasons why he decided to move to Seoul for Gunwoo’s next level of education.
My baby will be in kindergarten soon.
"Gunwoo-ya, your grandpa is very good at playing golf."
Aigooya.
Garam smiled when he saw how Lee Wonjae looked so pissed.
As a legendary golf player, Appa is probably offended that someone made fun of his grandson for losing at golf.
"Do you want me to teach you how to play golf, baby?"
"Gunwoo isn’t a baby anymore, but Gunwoo wants to learn from Grandpa," Gunwoo answered energetically, his face beaming. "When are we going to play golf, Grandpa?"
"Later," Lee Wonjae said. "You have to eat your fish and vegetables first, baby."
Oh.
Garam got worried because Gunwoo never liked fish—
"Okay, Grandpa!"
Hmm?
"Gunwoo will eat his fish and veggies," Gunwoo said cheerfully. "Then we’ll play!"
"Sure, baby," Lee Wonjae said while ruffling Gunwoo’s hair affectionately. "You have to eat well in order to play well."
Aww.
Garam couldn’t help but smile.
I should learn a thing or two from Appa.

"APPA, thank you for playing with our Gunwoo all day," Garam said, smiling at his Omega father-in-law. "Thanks to you, my baby ate fish and vegetables that he doesn’t usually eat. Plus, I can see that Gunwoo really enjoyed playing with you."
In fact, Gunwoo was now sleeping peacefully in the room.
That was how Garam and Lee Wonjae ended up talking outside the room, so that they wouldn’t disturb the child’s rest.
We have to stay in the hospital since Gunwoo suddenly got a mild fever.
But the doctor assured him that his son was safe.
Apparently, a fever is the body’s response to the white blood cells in the transfused blood.
But it would be a different matter if the fever was accompanied by other symptoms.
That’s why Gunwoo has to stay here for more observations.
"It’s nothing, dear. I’ll come back tomorrow," Lee Wonjae said, smiling while patting Garam’s shoulder. "Will Mija be here tomorrow? I also want to see the child."
"Yes, Appa. Mija will be here tomorrow," Garam said while nodding. "She just went home early to babysit Jina since Geon Hyung will stay here with me overnight."
Shin Geon and Shin Junho went home to drop by their daughter.
Later, Shin Geon would come and stay with Garam as his bodyguard.
Then, tomorrow morning, Junho Hyung will visit us with Mija and Baby Jina.
"Have you already found a place here in Seoul?"
"We’re currently staying at Geon Hyung and Junho Hyung’s apartment since this trip is unplanned. But once Gunwoo is discharged, we will find a bigger place."
"Do you need help, dear?"
"No, Appa. We’ll be fine. Actually, we already have a place in mind."
After all, Garam didn’t decide to move to Seoul overnight.
Our plan was just bumped earlier because of this emergency.
"Call me when you need help. No, even if you don’t need anything, please feel free to call me," Lee Wonjae said, and then he handed a paper bag to Garam. "Here’s my present for you. Open it, dear."
Garam thanked his Omega father-in-law after accepting the gift.
To be honest, he already knew what was inside the paper bag.
He could smell it, after all.
Hence, despite his personal feelings, he took a peek inside with an anticipating heart.
I knew it— I was right.
"Appa..." Garam lifted his head. "Is this Sihyuk Hyung’s jacket?"
He played dumb so his Omega father-in-law wouldn’t think that he was so obsessed with Song Sihyuk’s scent that he knew immediately.
I still have pride...
"Yes, I stole it from his penthouse. That was the suit he wore yesterday, so the pheromones should still be strong."
Actually, Garam could tell.
To be honest, it wasn’t their first rodeo.
Appa would send me Sihyuk Hyung’s clothes, pillows, or even blankets every three months.
Sihyuk Hyung’s pheromones are so strong that they can ’live’ up to three months.

I just want to remember that day as a beautiful moment since it was the birth of my son.

***
The scent has already faded, but Gunwoo still loves his father’s blanket.
