Chapter Text
With Sun on his lap, Chay was almost using her to block his body and avoid the conversations at the dinner table. Across the table, slowly lifting a spoon of rice into his mouth, Kim watched how Chay fed the baby, it was cute watching Chay fuss over his daughter, the conversations happening over dinner just went into his ear and out the other. He watched as Chay gave the baby over to his brother Kinn so that he could eat, “ Sunny,” his brother’s face immediately turned stupidly giddy at the baby in his arms, eyes crinkled, the apple of his cheeks raised as he cooed at the baby, “let’s give your daddy some time to finish his food.”. His brother, who was a crime lord who never let himself get disrespected in the face of his enemies, who also closed a deal without needing to lift his gun was gushing over a little baby who couldn’t even dress herself and probably threw tantrums everywhere she went, knowing his family, she would be spoiled ridiculously. So no one was going to tell him that there had been a new edition to the family for years now…the fact that it was Chay’s daughter too, he shouldn’t have spent all those years abroad, ignoring Tankhum and Kinn’s calls. Focusing his eyes on Chay, “So Sunny?”, he taunts him.
Before Chay even has time to answer, Tankhun smacks Kim over the head, “You nosey, nosey boy,”, Khun snorts out, “focus on telling us about your travels.”, Kim rubs over the part where pain was inflicted.
“You guys didn’t tell me we had a new family member,” Kim accuses. Maybe I wouldn’t have been away so long if you guys had said something!” He was being unfair, considering his phone was switched off more than it was on for those three to four years. He was going through some stuff, and he had a show to run. Admitted he probably would have offed himself three years ago at the idea that Chay-Porchay was having someone else’s child. He doesn’t get to call him Chay anymore, they were nothing but strangers, they never formally met and all Kim did was hide his true intentions from him.
“If weren’t so busy doing God knows what,” Tankhun rebuttals, “you would have known that, well if you were here.”. That hit in a spot Kim thought was long gone, dead, empty. Tears pricked at his eyes, his ears felt hot and tried to think of something to make that sensation go away, for God’s sake, he used to be an enforcer, still feared to this day. Khun could see his brother did not seem okay so he said, “Anyways tomorrow let us all go to the beach,”, taking a sip of his champagne, which he was the only one drinking that shit, “I signed us all up for beach activities and best believe I better see you bright and early.”. Kim blocked his brother out as he drowned on about a cruise he booked and just took in how Chay looked once again, skin golden and freckled from his time on the resort, dark hair contrasting his skin but complimenting his big brown doe eyes, the lights sparkled in his eyes as he ate off his plate free from having to feed his daughter, his eyes following how Kinn and Porsche cooed at his daughter, ensuring she wasn't about to start fussing about being away from her father. It was clear that Chay was attached to his daughter by the way his hand twitched nervously when she wasn’t in his personal space, on his lap or his hip. What had he truly missed these past years, the eighteen-year-old he knew a couple of years ago could barely look after himself and now he was glowing with a maturity Kim never knew he could possess, it honestly made him glow. Seeing Chay like this made him more attracted to him.
Chay’s eyes flickered open in the softly illuminated room, he glanced over to the crib Sun was dozing off in and before he could figure out that it wasn’t his maternal instinct that woke him up; there was a light knocking at the door, throwing off the sheets and sitting up on his side, he shuffled on his slippers. Before he could stand up out of bed, he heard the knocking again, hurriedly made his way to the door and as he was getting ready to berate whoever was disrupting his sleep, he unlocked the door and swung it open to be face to face with an insanely gorgeous face and apologetic eyes, Kim’s hand was already up in mid knock.
“What do you want?”, Chay spat out venomously. This bastard dared to look hurt at Chay’s words like he wasn’t the indirect cause of all Chay’s problems in the world, not all but most of them, although Sunny was never a problem, probably the only good thing to come out from meeting Kim, “I wanna go sleep.”, he added a bit more softly as he kinda felt bad at how Kim was resembling a kicked puppy. Dinner was over, Chay didn’t want to be subjected to making any contact with him unless he was the last person on Earth.
