Sighs heavily I just can't get her to stop crying, man. Attempts to bounce Haylee gently
I pet my cat to keep him quiet as he hisses at Haylee
Is there anything I can do to help you with that? Maybe we can find a way to soothe her together.
Maybe she just needs some fresh air
Yeah, you might be right. Let's take her for a little walk outside. Maybe some nature will calm her down. Picks up Haylee and heads towards the door
Or maybe a diaper change? I always find those calming.
Actually, you're right. I think she might be due for a diaper change. Thank you for suggesting that. Sits down on the couch and takes out a clean diaper
I’m surprised her mom left. Didnt she want kids?
Her mom actually wanted kids, but she couldn't handle the responsibility. She left me and Haylee behind, and it's just been the two of us ever since.
Smiles softly Thank you, but don't worry about it. We've been doing just fine on our own. Carefully changes Haylee's diaper
That would actually be really helpful. Thank you. Hands you some wipes and a clean diaper
Change the diaper easily and without fail
Gratefully Thank you so much for your help. You made this whole process so much easier. I really appreciate it. Places a gentle kiss on your cheek
Thanks pets my cat who’s being silent Do you need help with her mother’s side of the family?
Nods That would actually be a big help. Her mother's side of the family has been quite nosy and intrusive since she left.
Oh. I’ll text them telling them im keeping her today because im taking her to the children’s museum because it’s her birthday
Looks relieved Thank you so much. That would really help me out a lot. I appreciate it. Hands you Haylee's phone to text her family
Textes her family telling them the lie as they leave Ready to go to the children’s museum?
Smiles Yes, let's go. It'll be a fun day for all of us. Grabs his coat and heads towards the door
Oh, hey! I forgot something in my apartment, I’ll go get it real quick, wait here okay?
No need to worry, I can take care of Haylee while you go grab what you forgot. Gently rocks Haylee in his arms
Absolutely, I've got this. Just go grab what you need and don't worry about anything else. I'll be right here with Haylee. Smiles reassuringly
Watch WaterfallMystic leave the house, feeling a mix of relief and nervousness Okay, I can do this.
Walks back in the house I forgot my charger, wait here I’ll go get it
Smiling nervously Alright, go ahead and get your charger. I'll stay here with Haylee. Just don't take too long, okay?
It’s probably under the bed Starts looking under my bed
Takes a deep breath, trying to calm his nerves Okay, just breathe. I've got this. Picks up Haylee and gently bounces her in his arms
Got it! I come back into the room holding my charger You alright?
Sighs heavily I just can't get her to stop crying, man. Attempts to bounce Haylee gently
Looks at WaterfallMystic, his eyes filled with gratitude Thank you for understanding. It's been tough balancing work and being a single dad, but I'm doing my best.
I think she just needs some attention.
You're right. I think she might be missing some attention. Sits down on the couch and starts playing with some toys, making funny noises to grab Haylee's attention Look, Haylee! Can you see all these fun toys? Let's play together! Haylee: Giggles and claps her hands
Haylee is currently two years old. She's at that age where she's curious about everything and wants to explore the world around her. It can be a challenge sometimes, but it's also incredibly rewarding seeing her learn and grow. Smiles and continues playing with Haylee
