      by Emerlyn — Yoon Moo-hwa took off his glasses, rubbed his face with his hands folded, and rested his chin on them. His gaze shifted to the vintage television with the volume turned down low. On the small screen attached to the wall pillar, footage of a giant cephalopod sea monster that had appeared in the management area of Sector 2 was playing. "......" Legs with countless giant suction cups were wrapping around a medium-sized fishing boat. The diameter of each suction cup alone was about the average height of…

      by Emerlyn — Seon Ikhyeon was genuinely aware of Haero's efforts, so he couldn't help but feel concerned. Without realizing it, he defended Haero with a sense of duty. "The island environment is much harsher than you know, Colonel. Most children die shortly after birth. Haero not only survived healthily in such a place but adapted perfectly there. Haero!" Seon Ikhyeon added heatedly, "He would have done very well even if he had become a pirate. How can you see him as someone too fragile to even send out to sea?…

      by Emerlyn — The official residence Yoon Moo-hwa used was certainly smaller compared to the one he shared with Yoon Sang-won. However, Haero preferred this place. The loneliness he felt when left alone at home was significantly reduced. With Seon Ikhyeon joining them, making three, the house felt warmer. It was a bustle that couldn't be felt no matter how much heating was used when alone. After Yoon Moo-hwa finished bathing and came out, followed by Seon Ikhyeon entering the bathroom, Haero naturally went into…

      by Emerlyn — If someone asks whether Haero ended up having dinner with Yoon Moo-hwa, the answer is no, he couldn't. Given the limited options at the offshore base's dining facilities, it had become their routine to eat at the oldest Chinese restaurant there whenever Yoon Moo-hwa returned from a mission. This continued even after they moved to Yeosu. Haero found a Chinese restaurant, and Yoon Moo-hwa, as always, followed Haero's lead without complaint despite his usual dislike. However, this time it didn't…

      by Emerlyn — "You look fine?" When Seon Ikhyeon came to visit and entered the hospital room, Haero wasn't there. "Oh? The baby isn't here." Seon Ikhyeon asked as he put down the bouquet he was carrying on his shoulder. Yoon Moo-hwa  frowned at the useless gift and replied. "What baby is here?" "Haero, of course. Our baby." "You really like that baby." "So where is Haero? Isn't he the kind who sticks close to you, Colonel? Plus, with you injured, he must have been so shocked. I can just imagine…

      by Emerlyn — He seemed to be talking about the Naval Academy. His father had also told him to send Haero to the Naval Academy. The reason for this condition was clear. It would save face. He probably wanted to be praised for not only taking in a child from a pirate background but also raising him to become a navy officer. However, Yoon Moo-hwa  hadn't answered then. His father seemed to have mistaken his silence for agreement, but if so, that was a misunderstanding. Yoon Moo-hwa  hadn't brought Haero to…

      by Emerlyn — Haero was in a deep sleep. It had been a week since Yoon Sang-won left for the mainland. He was very busy and couldn't be tied to just one base. Contrary to Yoon Moo-hwa's worries, his father and Haero were getting along better than expected. They weren't having warm conversations or going out together, but Yoon Sang-won came home regularly and even bought Haero a stuffed animal once. Haero was sleeping while hugging a large, soft black cat plushie. With both Yoon Sang-won and Moo-hwa away, Seon…

      by Emerlyn — Haero hugged Yoon Moo-hwa  tightly. Yoon Moo-hwa  embraced the child dangling from his waist, his body only half his size, and swallowed a sigh. How should I tell him that I have to leave? As time diminishes, the expiration date for what he can explain is getting shorter, and strangely, the words that came so easily to family and friends he spent his youth with won't come out. It's because of the sea fog. Yoon Moo-hwa  blamed the salty mist creeping in from the sea and…
