"Mama is the best, and so is Enzo," Dimitri said when he saw the change in Enzo's demeanor.

When Enzo didn't say anything, Dimitri lifted him and placed him on his lap, but Enzo did not want to cooperate, he tried to squirm away and free himself.

"Go away! No like you," Enzo pushed Dimitri away and tried to squirm down his lap. But no matter how slippery he was, Dimitri had more strength to keep him in place. He was not letting his son go, no matter how much he wanted to sulk and get away from him.

They were going to talk about their issue before he left for the night. His goal was to make sure their relationship was perfect once again.

"Enzo, stop it. I want to talk to you. Tell me what's bothering you," Dimitri said as he straightened Enzo on his lap.

"Dada didn't choose to leave you and mama. I did not know where you were. I looked in all the places, like when you look for your toys. But you were lost. And now I found you again, but I promise we will always be together. Dada won't get lost again," he explained.

"Dada love mama and Enzo?" Enzo asked again just because he wanted to hear it again straight from his father's lips.

"Yes, baby. Dad loves you and mama very much," he said sincerely.

"Dada no go? Leave mama and baby?" Enzo asked, his voice quivering. Afraid that he would lose his dad again.

"Listen to me," Dimitri cupped his face, "Dada will never leave you again, from now on we will always be together," saying it in his reassuring voice.

"Promise?" Enzo showed his pinky finger.

"I promise," he said as he hooked their pinkies together. If this was the only way his son would accept it, then he would definitely do it.

And just like that Enzo's frown was replaced by a smile. Dimitri could not help himself as he planted kisses all over his son's face.

Enzo giggled and kissed him back, "Dada," he said shyly.

Dimitri was stunned. His son just called him dad for the first time, and it touched his heart. He wanted to keep this memory forever.

"Will you call me dada again?" he asked, and Enzo complied. He couldn't contain his happiness as he kissed his son's forehead again.

Enzo was still bothered from this morning, and he decided to air it out. He was staring at his father and asked, "Enzo wake up, no dada?"

Dimitri did not think Enzo would miss him this morning when he went to work. He was thinking that they just broke the news to him, and it wouldn't make too much of an effect since he went to sleep without acknowledging Dimitri as his father.

"I'm sorry. Dada went to work so he could get your surprise," he explained.

"Surprise?" Enzo's eyes widened. Kids always liked surprises no matter how big, or small they are, as long as there is a surprise.

"Yup! Come, let me show you," Dimitri got excited to show Enzo his surprise too. So he led the way to the door but realized that Enzo had not followed him, he just stood there, and it looked like he was waiting for something.

"Enzo, come, don't you want to see your surprise?" Dimitri gestured for Enzo to follow him.

"Surprise!" Enzo said as he raised his arms like he was reaching for something up high.

Dimitri understood what he meant when he stood in front of his son. "Ahhh.. you want dada to carry you?" he asked.

"Carry! Carry!" Enzo smiled, jumping up and down, excited for his dad to carry him.

Dimitri grinned at him as he took him in his arms. He liked that his son was getting vocal about what he wants from Dimitri.

Enzo giggled when his father lifted him high up in his arms. He was always jealous when he saw kids at school getting picked up by their fathers. It always made him wish that he had a father.

His mama could never carry him long enough because he was getting too big and heavy for her, and she couldn't lift him high either. It felt very nice to be in his dada's arms, so he tightened the hug around his neck.

Aurora felt relieved to see that Dimitri and Enzo had reconciled when she saw them snuggled in each other's arms. It would have been hard to convince Enzo to do something when he did not want to do it.

"Aww look at you two. It's nice that you are friends again. Come and let's have dinner," she said.

Dimitri sat down with Enzo in his lap because his son would not let him go.

"Baby, come and sit in your chair so dad can eat," she gestured a beckoning motion to Enzo.

"Nuh-uh!" Enzo said as he tightened his arms around Dimitri's neck.

"It's okay, let him be. He can sit in my lap," Dimitri patted Enzo's head lovingly.

"Won't it be inconvenient for you to eat with him in your lap?" she said, frowning at the duo.

"Don't worry, I'll manage. He's not that heavy. I can navigate around him," he replied.

After this morning Enzo did not want to get separated from his father again and he was going to do everything in his power to make him stay.

Aurora lined up their plates beside each other. It was kind of comical the way they were eating, but she understood why her son was sticking this close to Dimitri.

Enzo had finished everything on his plate to show off to his dad, which earned him a compliment. "Good job for eating all your food," Dimitri praised.

He was very happy to get praises from his father and hopefully this was not going to be the first and last time.

Dimitri helped give him a bath and read him a story before he left for the night. "Enzo, I will not stay here tonight, but I will be back tomorrow, okay. Dada needs to go to work again," he said as he planted a kiss on his small tiny cute cheeks.
