Embarrassed by my earlier blunder, I rushed Sarang into the theater, hands full with popcorn and soda.

The seats I'd reserved were plush, like a sofa - a couple's seat with two seats joined together. As we navigated the dimly lit theater to find our spots, Sarang's eyes lit up with excitement.

"Is this it?! It's a couple's seat!"

"You like it better this way, right?"

"I love it! It's amazing!"

She was trying to act mature, but the way she threw herself into the seat, her whole body radiating joy, reminded me that she was still very much a child.

Not that I minded - Sarang being the cutest thing in the world was fine by me.

We spent the time before the movie started taking selfies together. Once the film began, Sarang leaned against me as she watched.

The youthful nature of our date suddenly reminded me of the past. Of dates with Heena. There was that time we met to watch a movie, and Heena playfully called me "oppa" as a concept.

That was fun. I guess being called "oppa" strokes a man's ego, so it felt nice.

She'd occasionally do it after that since I liked it so much, but never after I finished my military service.

Well, I missed it a bit and it was a good memory, but that didn't mean I wanted to hear Sarang call me that. Being called "Dad" by Sarang was the best thing for me.

I gently stroked Sarang's hair as she focused intently on the movie. Just like I used to do for Heena on our dates.

In response, Sarang snuggled closer to my arm.

We quietly watched the movie like that. Though we'd already demolished the popcorn and soda.

I'm not the only one who really loves this kind of thing.

After the movie, we stopped by a cafe nearby. Not Rin noona's cafe, just a local one. If we went there, she'd probably fuss over us too much, killing the date vibe.

Sitting in the cafe, we chatted about the movie we'd just seen, and I let Sarang order all the pretty desserts she wanted.

"Can I really eat all of this?"

"Today, you can eat whatever you want. If there are leftovers, I'll finish them."

"Wow! Then I want this bagel and~"

Since we hadn't had dinner yet, I was confident I could polish off whatever Sarang ordered and left behind.

Her eyes sparkling, Sarang received the drinks and desserts she'd ordered. For about 10 minutes after sitting down, we were completely absorbed in taking pictures of each other.

This photo instinct was inherited from Heena. If it seemed like a photo-worthy moment, we'd whip out the camera without hesitation.

Only after our impromptu photoshoot did we leisurely start eating the cakes and bagels.

"Dad! Say ah~"

"Ah~"

As always, Sarang and I fed each other. It might be a bit embarrassing to do in public, but I'd done it so often with Heena and Sarang that those feelings had long since vanished.

Who cares what others think? My Sarang wants to feed me!

After gossiping about the movie and having our feast at the cafe...

"Let's split a pasta, Dad."

"Are you full?"

"Yeah~ But I still want to eat a little!"

"Then pick out a pizza too. You can taste it, and I'll eat the rest."

"But you're full too~"

"No, I'm not? I could still eat three more pizzas."

We had a late lunch at a pasta restaurant. Because of the desserts earlier, three pizzas might be pushing it, but I could genuinely manage two of the small thin-crust pizzas they serve here.

After following the textbook date route of movie, cafe, and pasta lunch, we headed to the department store. Sarang wanted to window shop.

"Dad! Does this look good on me?"

"Sarang looks good in anything."

"Not that~ Look properly!"

"But I mean it..."

"Dad!"

At the clothing store, Sarang held outfits up to herself for my assessment, and in turn, picked out clothes she thought would suit me.

It really felt like I was reliving the dates I had with Heena in high school. This sweet, innocent feeling.

Even though it was a date with my daughter, there was a ticklish feeling in a corner of my heart. I thoroughly enjoyed wandering around with Sarang.

"This hat looks good on you too, Dad~"

"Should we get a couple set? Just for you and me to wear."

"Really?! Let's do it! I'll buy it!! This will be just for me and Dad!"

"Hey now. Put your money away. I'll buy it."

In the midst of this, Sarang and I bought matching hats. The same style, just different colors. Sarang, grinning from ear to ear, put the black hat she'd been wearing into her bag and donned the new one.

"Cheese~"

"Cheese~"

We took another couple shot after that.

The photo turned out so well that I wanted to change my profile picture, but... Heena would get upset, so I held back. I'd have to be content with posting it in our group chat.

As our window shopping at the department store was winding down, with the hat as our final purchase, Sarang pulled me towards the stuffed animal shop.

I thought she might want a new plush toy. We hadn't bought her a stuffed animal as a birthday present in a couple of years, starting from the year before last. We'd begun giving her other gifts, figuring she was getting too old for just stuffed animals.

Of course, the cat plushies that I and other family members had given her before were still well-loved in Sarang's room, but I felt it was a bit much to keep giving only stuffed animals to a soon-to-be middle schooler.

So I thought maybe she wanted to add a new cat plush to her collection after a long time, but Sarang didn't start looking at cat plushies.

"I think Somang would like this! Don't you think?"

"Are you picking out a plush for Somang?"

"Yeah! Oh, I'm definitely buying this one! No matter what, okay?!"

Seeing Sarang's face light up as she said this, talking about buying a gift for her little brother who was so disappointed about not coming along on our date, made me feel like I could cry.

I wanted to grab a megaphone and shout to the world about how wonderful my daughter is.

Look how kind our daughter is!

And with Sarang insisting like this, I had no reason to object. I just wanted to do everything she wanted.

And so, our date ended after barely six hours.

All because of Sarang's beautiful heart, thinking of her little brother.

---

"Somang!! Your sister bought you a present!"

"A pwesent?"

"Yeah! Here, it's a puppy plush!"

"Wow..."

"Isn't it cute? Ttangttang has a new friend!"

"Nice... Ttangttang's fwiend..."

As soon as we got home, Somang, who had been running towards me, was intercepted by Sarang, who handed him the gift. Somang let out a gasp of amazement as he hugged the white puppy plush, stunned.

He stood there, cradling the tan puppy plush Ttangttang in one arm and the white puppy plush Sarang had bought him in the other, alternating his gaze between the two.

He seemed overjoyed with his sister's gift. So much so that he'd forgotten about running to me and was completely absorbed in the plushies.

Watching Sarang constantly snapping photos of her adorable little brother, I whispered to Heena.

"Heena, you wouldn't believe how sweet Sarang was today."

"Oh really? Well, you wouldn't believe the picture Somang drew for you either."

"What? There's something like that? Show me quick!"

"You first~ Tell me about Sarang!"

Smiling at each other, excited to share stories of our children being so sweet and kind.

It was a happy, ordinary day.

Author's Note:

No slandering Somang.
