Holden hesitated for a fleeting moment, his mind racing to concoct a plausible excuse. After a thoughtful pause, he finally told Melon, “You see, Daddy’s profession is secret, and this time, I clandestinely slipped away to keep my boy company. Should your Mommy discover our Little escapade, she’d surely be fuming and fraught with worry. You know how much Daddy despises seeing Mommy distressed, and you share that sentiment, don’t you?”

Melon, not fully grasping the intricacies of the situation, got Holden’s words and nodded in agreement. He extended his hand, suggesting a pinkie promise.

“Shall we seal the deal?”

“Alright, no lying.” With a wry grin, Holden intertwined his pinkie with Melon’s and playfully tickled his nose.

Melon was still hesitant to part ways. He got his smart watch and showed it to Holden.

“Daddy, this is my contact information. Can I add your details? We can video chat whenever you find time.”

“Of course,” Holden readily agreed, proceeding to add Melon’s phone number.
