"Joong, wake up, it's afternoon already," Seonghwa whispered while shaking Hongjoong softly.
"Huh? I'm not sleeping, I'm just thinking," Hongjoong mumbled, he got up and sat on the couch, rubbing his eyes.
Seonghwa chuckled at his roommate. "Well, sorry for interrupting your thinking time, Mr. Producer,"
"What time is it?"
"It's 11 already, what time did you get home last night? You didn't even bother to sleep in our room, huh?" Seonghwa chuckled.
Hongjoong frowned. "I think I came back around 3 a.m? Wait, I don't have any schedule today, aren't I?"
Hongjoong picked up his phone and checked his schedule note while Seonghwa sat next to him.
"No, it's your day off. I'm sorry that I woke you up early on your day off, but I have no choice," Seonghwa nudged his head toward the sitting mat in front of them.
Hongjoong followed the direction, his eyes landed on San who sat on the carpet, a bunch of toys, plushies, and coloring kits scattered in front of him. San obviously unaware that the oldest two were looking at him as he busily played with his toys. Hongjoong looked back at Seonghwa. "Is he...?"
"Yes, he woke up little this morning," Seonghwa answered, knowing that Hongjoong would ask about it. "Luckily he has no schedule today, but everyone has individual schedules today except you so..."
"It's okay, I can take care of him today," Hongjoong interrupted as he stretched his limbs. "Can you wait for ten minutes before you go? I'm gonna wash up first,"
"Sure," Seonghwa nodded. "I already got him washed up and ate his breakfast, anyway. And I'm sorry that I bother you on your free day, I was hoping you could take some rest though...I promise I'll get back home as soon as I finished my schedule today,"
"No, it's not a bother, don't ever think that way, okay? We're in this together," Hongjooong patted Seonghwa's shoulder as he got up and walked to the bathroom.

San was beyond happy that day. He spent his morning with one of his favorite caregiver, playing with his favorite toys and plushies. Hongjoong even got him his favorite nuggets for lunch which got him happier.
"So," Hongjoong turned around after washing the dishes, "Do you want to take a nap or play a bit more?"
"Color!" San wobbly walked to the carpet, a few second later his hand already went through the coloring book pages.
"Sure," Hongjoong sat next to the younger. "How about we color some pet pictures today?"
San nodded excitedly and reached his crayon, he squealed when Hongjoong opened a page with kittens and puppies printed on it.
"Byeolie!" San pointed at the kitten, his eyes lit up when Hongjoong clapped at him.
"Right! This one looks like Byeol, isn't it? So what color do you want for it?"
San picked a grey crayon and showed it to Hongjoong, then he started to color the picture after Hongjoong nodded at him.
"Now what color do you want for the puppy?"
"Purple!" the little squealed, and Hongjoong couldn't help but giggle at him.
"You sure? I haven't seen any puppy with a purple fur before though?"
"But Sannie wan' purple!"
"Okay, okay. Purple it is," Hongjoong took a purple crayon and gave it to San. He smiled as San started to color the picture and took his phone from his pocket. He checked through his messages and replied some, before he turned to San and gasped when he found the younger already asleep, his head laid on the book and the purple crayon already slipped from his hand.
Hongjoong put his phone away, then he carefully picked San up and walked to the younger's room. He laid San down on his bed and pulled the blanket to cover the younger, before kissing the younger's forehead.
"Sleep tight, sweetie,"
