Theo and I sat on the sofa watching TV. A variety show was playing. I was easily amused, but Theo was not even remotely amused, hence it was boring for the two of us to watch it together.
"It’s better to drink less of the tea." Theo switched off the TV and held my hand, saying to me seriously, "It's not good to drink too much of something. I don't want you to get poisoned."
Poisoned? No way, how could it be so serious?
I was just about to mock him when Munchkin’s cries rang out from the nursery.
I shook Theo's hand off and rushed to the nursery. When I went in and saw Munchkin’s face full of tears, I felt tremendously heartbroken. "What's wrong, Baby?”
"He's probably hungry." Xander rushed in as well.
"He just drank not long ago."
Xander turned around to go out. "I'll go and make some infant formula. Let's see if he takes it."
I followed him outside.
After making the infant formula, Xander and I returned to the nursery and were shocked to see the scene before our eyes.
Theo was holding Munchkin, who had stopped crying and was now staring at Theo with his huge, round eyes. A big grin was plastered across his face.
Xander snapped back from his trance and handed Theo the milk bottle. "Feed him and see if he wants to drink it."
Theo nodded and sat on the bed to feed Munchkin.
The usually cold and lofty man was now holding a baby in his arms while feeding him. This was such a heartwarming scene to behold that I thought it was adorable to look at.
Xander looked deeply at Theo before turning around t o leave.
"I really want to laugh.” I could not hold back anymore.
This was such an amusing scene to look at.
