The Little Helper
When you came back from work, you heard Yoongi humming a little song to himself in the distance. You smiled to yourself as you removed your shoes and hung your coat.
You tiptoed following the sound and found him sitting on the floor of your little girl's room, assembling a piece of furniture you had never seen before.
He looked adorable wearing a t-shirt and overalls, a headband held his fringe off his face to work comfortably. Your baby slept soundly next to him in her carrycot.
"Yoongi?" you called him softly, but he jolted, sending his screwdriver flying and hitting the cot. His aegi was startled awake as well and started crying.
"For fuck's sake, jagi" he exclaimed seeing you at the door and picking up the baby to try and calm her down. "Why didn't you say something when you came into the apartment?" he grumbled annoyed.
"We were doing just fine, right? She nearly poked your eye out" he cooed, swaying his daughter in his arms.
"Hey, I didn't do such a thing!" you complained.
"You scared me and the screwdriver woke her up, but it could have been worse" he shot back glaring at you.
"You kept her too close! It was dangerous!" you retorted feeling attacked, it wasn't entirely your fault.
"It's you who disturbed her sleep" now he was just being petty. He knew it wasn't the smartest thing, but figured he was careful enough and it would be fine. Yoongi just groaned as he finally put the baby back to sleep.
Getting up, he walked up to you and softly held your upper arms to peck you. You pressed your lips together and looked up at him still mad that he would tell your girl you were trying to hurt her.
"You just sounded so cute humming while you worked and I didn't want you to stop because I was here" you talked with a pout and he chuckled amused.
"You've heard me make all sort of stupid noises, I think I'm past feeling embarrassed about that around you" your husband smiled brightly and you melted. Wrapping your arms around his waist, you bit on your bottom lip and he raised an eyebrow.
"The outfit is adorable, but I'm digging that headband" you commented blushing and he smirked.
"Sweaty and dirty, very attractive. I'll make sure to leave it on your pillow when I'm done" he laughed when you slapped his arm, he had to ruin every compliment. Old habits die hard.
"What are you doing? Where did you get that?" you asked, looking at the pieces curiously.
"Ikea. It's a dresser, but..." he walked over to an already assembled part, "it's also a changing station". Yoongi pulled open the top to reveal a pad and looked at you showing his teeth, looking very proud of himself.
"But we already have one" you said, looking at the one behind him confused.
"We can sell it. The thing about this one is that when we don't need to change her anymore, we can move this base down" he lifted the pad and pointed at the bottom, "and turn it into a hidden chest for toys,"
You were about to open your mouth when he held up a finger for you to let him finish. You side-smiled amused by his excitement over assembling it all and the different possibilities.
"Or, we can just keep the lid closed and add a third drawer instead of having two and the chest" Yoongi finished and looked at you like it was the best invention ever.
"I see. Well, it sounds nice."
"Nice? It's genius!" he said with wide eyes as if you were not fully appreciating the potential of this creation. You laughed softly, this whole thing was so endearing.
"Okay, I'm going to take the baby with me so you can work without any accidents" you announced as you made your way in between the various wooden parts.
"Why? She's with me" Yoongi looked up at you as you bent over to take the carrycot. His eyebrows furrowed and an involuntary pout on his lips as he talked.
"What if she gets hurt?" you questioned him as if you hadn't just talked about this.
"She won't, I'll keep her further away" he said pointing at the corner that was closest to him.
"I'm home, I can take care of her now."
"But she's my little helper" this was too cute, but you wanted time with your daughter too.
"How? She can't do anything."
"Yah! Who says she can't?" he scowled, offended that you were saying his aegi was useless. "She can offer moral support. When she was awake we were chatting, you should have heard her babbling about the ocean."
"The ocean?" you asked furrowing your eyebrows as he had seemingly lost his mind.
"Badada*! She was saying badada" he said smiling amused, but he was truly thrilled about their whole exchange they had had.
"I don't think she meant to say anything, she's not even 5 months old" you commented stifling a laugh.
"You're such a downer, we don't like you. Go away" Yoongi said seriously, grabbing the sides of the cot so you wouldn't take her away. You rolled your eyes, he could be such a child.
"It's my turn to be with her, Yoongi!" you said pleading with your eyes and he pulled away reluctantly, knowing it was true.
"Fine. Only because you hold all the food and she needs to eat" he said, nodding at your chest and added, "we need to restock the freezer."
"Is that all I am? Wow" you growled, straightening yourself up with your baby safely in your hold.
"You know I'm joking," he said softly, looking guilty. You knew, he was just being too intense. He was when he was in a good mood and you found it cute to a certain point.
"Fine" you turned around after winking at him with a little smile to reassure him and pretended to walk out offended.
"Jagi" Yoongi called you one last time before you left the room.
"Yes?" you looked at him over your shoulder.
"Then it's my turn, okay?"
"You want to have her again??" you shook your head in disbelief.
"No, it's aegi's turn now. I want to have you next"
You blushed at his words, one minute he got on your nerves and the next he said these things that had you swooning for him like you hadn't been together for nearly seven years now.
-
* Badada means "it's the ocean" in Korean. Yoongi said this on more than one occasion. Both during Bon Voyage and more recently during the Permission to Dance behind the scenes at the beach. At this stage, babies usually babble with a combination of consonants and vowel sounds like a-ba, a-ga, a-da, etc.
Thanks to desila for the idea that came from the recent Run episodes!
