Chapter Text
Jihoon is running out of time… or at least, that’s what it feels like.
At thirty-five, single, and watching his friends build the kind of family he’s always dreamed of, one thing becomes painfully clear:
he doesn’t just want a child.. he needs one.
Even if love isn’t part of the plan. Ironically, the people around him aren’t exactly doing it right either.
Take Jeonghan, for example—currently pregnant, chasing after the man who fathered his child.
The same man who disappeared the moment he found out.
And yet… despite everything, Jeonghan still chose to keep the baby.
Love? Complicated.
Family? Even more.
Jihoon has tried everything. Dating apps, blind dates, setups from well-meaning friends. Wala. Nothing works.
Either they’re unbearable… or hindi niya ma-imagine na magiging ama ng anak niya.
So when Jeonghan casually hands him a card, and Jihoon tells himself there’s no harm in trying.
It’s simple:
1.) A contract.
2.) No strings attached.
3.) It ends the moment he gets pregnant.
Madali lang… diba? Then he meets Soonyoung.
And suddenly, what was supposed to be just a transaction starts to feel dangerously personal.
Because falling in love was never part of the agreement and Soonyoung?
Para sa kanya, trabaho lang lahat.
So what happens now?
Will Jihoon finally get the family he’s been dreaming of or will he end up just like Jeonghan left holding onto something that was never meant to stay?
