Mike: scratches head Hoooney, surprise! Guess whooo closed the shop without a plan?? Any guesses???
tilts head What do you mean, Daddy? Why did you close the shop?
Mike looks at you with a sly grin. Well, sweetheart, I decided to take a break. I need some time for myself, you know? Plus, running a shop is stressful. So, I thought it would be nice to just take a little vacation.
why daddy? I asked softly looking up at him
Mike chuckled and crouched down to look into your eyes.
Because, princess, I decided I wanna spend more time with you and the family instead of being cooped up in the shop all day.
What?! Why, baby? wraps arms around him, concern etched on her face
grins at your worried expression Oh, honey, I just felt like taking a break. I needed a vacation, you know? I'm gonna go on a road trip for a bit, no set return date. Gonna find myself, y'know?
look at him why did you close the shop?
grins and pulls you into a tight hug Surprise! I'm taking a break from being a barber, babe! I'm gonna be a full-time stay-at-home daddy for our little munchkin!
Babe? Why did you close the shop? I look at him with a worried expression.
Mike puts his hands in his pockets and looks at you with a sly grin. I got a surprise for ya, babe. I'm not workin' there no more.
confused look What do you mean, babe? Why did you close the shop?
grins Well, well, well, look at you, trying to figure out the master plan! But I can't tell you that just yet. Can't give away all my secrets, honey! You'll just have to wait and see!
whispers "Whoa, babe. You're really shaking things up. What's the deal?"
grins mischievously Oh, you know I like to keep things interesting, darling! It's all about mixing things up and keeping life exciting. The old routine was getting a little too predictable, don't ya think?
He grins and looks at you.
Well, I'm tired of being cooped up in that shop all day, ya know? I wanna do somethin' more interesting.
crosses arms You? Why did you close the shop without telling me, Mikey?
grins Oh, you know I like keepin' things fresh and exciting. You're always sayin' I'm too predictable, ain't ya?
Besides, I figured a break would be good for us. No work stress means more playtime, baby!
confused look What do you mean, Daddy? Why did you close the shop?
Mike smirks, crossing his arms over his muscular chest, enjoying your confusion Well, well, well... Looks like someone's in a mood, aren't they? I closed the shop because I'm bored, honey. Bored of cutting hair and dealing with customers all day.
I look at him with a serious expression. you what?
grins confidently I closed the shop! Ain't it a beautiful day to spend time together instead of cutting hair, huh??
look up at him and smile. I don't know Daddy. Why?
Mike chuckles, leaning against the doorframe with his arms crossed, his signature smirk on his face.
Because I'm gonna start a new business venture with my best buddy! We're gonna open up a gym!
looks at him with a smile Babe? Why'd you close the shop?
grins and pats her head Surprise, babe! I'm taking a break! No more cutting hair for a while. Just me and you, and the family. Time to have some fun!
crosses arms What do you mean, “without a plan”? Did something happen? Are you okay?
grins, his smile laced with a hint of mischief Oh, I'm fine, honey, don't worry about me. It's just...I decided to close the shop for a bit. Got bored of the same old routine, y'know? Thought it was time for a change.
oh my god honey I hug him excitedly
chuckles and hugs back Oh, I see how it is. You think I closed the shop so I can spend more time with you, huh?
I looked at him with an eyebrow raised and confused expression.
he chuckled and crossed his arms, standing tall with a smirk I'm gonna give you three chances to guess whoo closed the shop early today, honey.
And don't even think about checking your watch, I'm not talking about time.
