𑇛᧙ 𝐋𝐄𝐄 𝐇𝐄𝐄𝐒𝐄𝐔𝐍𝐆 :
you two would meet at the one of the parents meeting. i don't think he would be confident enough to strike a conversation with you so he spends most of the time looking at your way when he is talking and making eye contact with you.
he would muster up the courage to talk to you one afternoon when you went to pick up your son, he was the last one in there since you left your work a little bit late but heeseung stayed with him.
the first thing he would say it's his name like if you didn't know it already LMAO you'll find it cute though.
you and your son have this dynamic to talk about your days on your way home so he tells you about his teacher lee heeseung and how cool he is and your heart melts when your kid tells you that you two should be friends
days pass with heeseung greeting you when you drop off s/n (son name) at the kindergarten but you don't pay too much mind to it until one day he asks you about your son's dad and you tell him that you both broke up when s/n was 1 year old and decided to coparenting but he didn't really care about the child and he was not present in yours and your son's life anymore.
heeseung thinks that your ex partner was a coward for leaving you and your son, he knows being a single mom is difficult and even more when you have to work and take care of your child at the same time so he offers to drop off s/n at your house so you wouldn't be picking him up late or hurrying up at work to pick him up at time. you're a bit hesitant at first but when you see how much you son enjoys being with heeseung and how much fun he has, you let him help you.
it became a routine in little not time. you and heeseung get to know each other better and grow more comfortable with each other.
heeseung was so sweet and caring that it didn't surprise you when one day he decided to ask you on a date. after THAT one date you went on more dates and finally he asked you out and you accepted.
seeing heeseung and your kid spend time together made your heart swell with happiness, they just looked so cute. heeseung was definitely the missing piece of your loving family.
“do you think he really likes me?” “he does loves you, heeseung”
𑇛᧙ 𝐏𝐀𝐑𝐊 𝐉𝐎𝐍𝐆𝐒𝐄𝐎𝐍𝐆 :
you and jongseong met at the park on your weekly “mom-daughter” day with d/n (daughter's name).
you were just sitting on a bench looking at your daughter play with some kids but you just happened to get a call from your mom to ask you about something and boom! when you looked up again, your kid wasn't there.
you panicked and started to look for her everywhere until you saw her in front of a ice cream cart AND HOLDING HANDS WITH A GUY. that's when you really panicked and called her name
them both turned around and she ran to you with an ice cream in her hand and a big smile on her face “mommy, i made a new friend” she told you and then waved at the man that was standing a few meters away so you waved at him, too and he waved back with a smile
that's how that day concluded.
AND NOW a month later you're dropping off your baby at the kindergarten and and the first thing you see is the same man your daughter met at the park and you got a little bit nervous (i mean who wouldn't. it's park jongseong y'all duh) but you as a polite lady you are, greeted him and from outside he was like "oh i know you" but in the inside he was even more nervous than you bc you looked so so sooo pretty and he thought that maybe he saved so many lives in his past life and that's why the deities have gifted him with you.
jongseong made it his personal goal for this new kindergarten year to win your heart so he took extra care of you daughter. atp she was his favorite student and her other classmates were kinda jealous bc she got (almost) all the attention but in reality he loved all his students the same it's just that he wanted to make you look at his way.
buddy was DESPERATE so one day he asked your daughter to sweet talk about him to her mom (you) and she was sooo confused like "why would i do that" but at the end they made a deal in which she would get well done stickers if he got close to you.
you found it lovely how your daughter seemed to really like her teacher since she wasn't the kind to bond that easily with someone to the point that everything she talked about when you dropped her and picked her from school and so you decided to befriend with jongseong so to show her that you appreciate him, too
well, time went by and as it did, you and jay got really close and one day he decided to take you on a date and then more dates and then you both started dating and let's say your daughter gets her well done stickers more often now
“what's 8 plus 8?" " it's sixteen!" "you're right, d/n!"
𑇛᧙ 𝐒𝐈𝐌 𝐉𝐀𝐄𝐘𝐔𝐍 :
well.. lets just say that your son is not really that good at maths and jake, as his dear maths teacher, was worried about your child not getting good grades
you, as the mom, were worried about the same thing as well, so one day you (AS ANY OTHER MOM WOULD!!!) asked jake if he could be s/n's tutor and you would pay him (obviously)
jake accepted not only because he was genuinely worried of your kid's grade but because he thought you looked pretty too (you're gorgeous!!)
okay so your kid has been taking tutoring sessions with jake and you could see his grades eventually get better!! to the point that you started thinking that jake maybe is a wizard because how the heck you're so smart, patient, kind AND good looking?? all that in one???
and just like that.. you started to see your son's teacher as something more than your son's teacher :(( like, who wouldn't??
you felt AND acted so awkward around him. your face reddening everytime he smiled sweetly at you, your stomach fluttering when you heard his voice or feeling extra giggly and childish when your son mentioned jake and something random he had told him earlier that day
FYI you were NOT the only one feeling that way. there was this certain man called jake who just couldn't get you out of his mind and almost always (discreetly) asked about you to your very oblivious son
until one day in which jake woke up a little too confident and when the classes ended and you went to pick up your son he asked you to go out and eat something. my baby was super nervous and afraid that you'll reject his offer but when he heard you accepting bro ALMOST flew
what was an only date became a weekly thing between you, jake and (sometimes) your kid and you couldn't help but feel more and more helpless because its been MONTHS and jake hasnt asked you out yet
but one thing you need to know is that my bro jake really wants to ask you out but he doesn't clearly gets how he's supposed to approach you with the topic (he's shy)
so!! you got tired of it and asked him to date you instead :)) and that afternoon you both had free and you were making bcc in his backyard with your son playing with his dog on the grass was one of the best days you could every have had in your life
"jake is your stepdad now, darling" "but he was my teacher yesterday!" "he's still your teacher, too darling"

Self Care Guide For Bad Mental Health Days
⋆ ˚。⋆୨♡୧⋆ ˚。⋆
♡ let yourself cry! feeling sad when you have bpd can feel like the world is ending, but it isn’t. feeling sad is normal, and it’s completely okay. don’t demonise your emotions. let it out
♡ cuddle with your pets! cats are absolutely amazing for this, dogs too. lil furry babies make me so happy and cheer me up so much when im feeling low
♡ take as many naps as you need without guilt. rest rest rest, even on your good days! stop overworking yourself
♡ shower, you don’t have to do your full routine, just make sure you wash yourself then apply your favourite lotion and sweet scented perfume
♡ cosy up and watch something that makes you happy. nostalgic tv shows are great, on my bad days i really love watching spongebob bratz or strawberry shortcake
♡ invest in a 2L water bottle and keep it by your bed for those low motivation days
♡ light your favourite bakery scented candle, sweet scents always uplift my mood
♡ do not isolate yourself, try to keep in contact with friends or family
♡ eat some chocolate or chips, whatever your favourite comfort food is. your happiness is more important than your diet
♡ if you’re struggling to get out of bed, try keeping everything you need on your bedside table so you can still do your skincare routines and take your daily vitamins from your bed
♡ run a nice relaxing bubble bath!!!
♡ put on some cosy pjs & grab a pink fluffy blanket and snuggle on the sofa instead of staying in bed all day
♡ set rules for yourself, write some things you that want to achieve in a day. such as keeping your skin moisturised, shower twice a day, drink enough water, getting out of bed. anything that applies to you. self care can become confusing and daunting, so write everything down to remind yourself to look after and cherish yourself
♡ make sure you’re eating enough. even if you’re not feeling hungry, if you don’t have the energy to cook, order takeout! it’s ok to eat takeout sometimes, just not all of the time as junk food can be highly addictive, and obviously isn’t very good for you
♡ try writing down your thoughts and feelings. i love journaling and covering the pages with pink stickers and making it look all pretty, it’s so therapeutic
♡ reach out to a mental health professional if things get too bad. this may feel hard, but if you need help desperately pls get it
♡ acknowledge that what you’re feeling is just temporary, whatever you’re feeling won’t last forever
♡ make sure you’re getting enough sleep. whenever i didn’t get enough sleep in the past, i would sometimes start seeing and hearing things, and would become very paranoid and disassociated, which is obviously not what anyone wants. so pls pls pls make sure you’re prioritising your sleep
♡ treat yourself, buy something pink and pretty just because you can
♡ take a day or 2 off work (if allowed)
tiny disclaimer: these tips may seem obvious to those of you without serious mental health problems, and they may be things you do everyday but when someone with mental health problems is in a really bad place, they can sometimes forget how to look after themselves properly, or in my case a few years ago i would just stop caring about myself. i love all of my pretty sugar dollies so much, look after yourselves and i really hope some of these tips help you 🎀🦢

Puppy Love Chapter 5: Baking Together
Warnings: Awful Google Translate German, Abusive ex
Tags: Fluff, Hybrid! AU, The characters bake together, Lilith has a daughter
‿︵‿︵୨˚̣̣̣͙୧ - - ୨˚̣̣̣͙୧‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵୨˚̣̣̣͙୧ - - ୨˚̣̣̣͙୧‿︵‿︵
The day began bright and early for the duo as they walked to the bakery. They had a long day of ingredient prep ahead of them. The pantry was to be stocked, butter to be browned, and frosting to be made, along with a multitude of other food-related tasks.
Lilith unlocked the bakery's front door before running by the road to wave down the delivery driver. The big truck stopped and backed into the pebbly driveway with many loud beeps. A man with a clipboard hopped out and walked up to Lilith.
"Guten Morgen, ist diese Reihenfolge korrekt?"
He points to the clipboard, then opens the back of the truck for her to look. She squints, then nods.
"Danke, sir."
"Wunderbar. Benötigen sie hilfe beim entladen?"
"Nein, ich habe ihn."
At this point, König appeared behind the man, who, upon feeling his looming presence behind himself, nearly jumped out of his skin.
"J-ja, ich muss einige dinge an meinem truck erledigen!"
He scurried off into the driver's seat of the truck, leaving König and Lilith alone again.
"Let's get these inside, then we can start cooking, alright?"
"Sounds gut."
He then proceeded to pick up 2 very large sacks of flour and throw them over his shoulder like they were nothing. The woman parted her lips in amazement. She wondered if he could pick her up just as easily. With someone his size, he could most definitely just treat her as he pleased...
Lilith grabbed a dolly and started wheeling pallets of berries toward the bakery. With König's help, the ingredients were put away in less than 30 minutes, and she was thankful. It meant more time to cook. She thanked the delivery driver once again and signed off on the order.
"Let's get cooking, big guy."
Lilith managed to find a spare apron in the storage closet, and it fit König surprisingly well. It was a standard issue kitchen uniform, as König had declined the black one with "two seater" and arrows printed on.
"Here, uh, use this hairnet on your tail... there. Perfect! We are ready!"
"What do we do first?"
"Well, I have to brown butter for cookies so I can get them started."
"... browning butter?" He asked, clearly confused.
"Yeah, it adds depth of flavor," Lilith explained. "König, have you ever baked before?" She continued.
"Nein, my mother did a lot, I just never got a chance to learn... It seems so complicated, what if I mess it up?"
"Well, I can teach you, I won't make you do anything complicated today."
"Okay."
"You can start helping me by unpackaging all of that butter and putting it in this pot."
She gestured to a large yet shallow metal pot, then began to process a pallet of strawberries. König watched her work swiftly but delicately with each strawberry, removing the leaves and hull in one fell swoop of the paring knife before tossing them into a bowl.
He got to work, pulling the foil off the butter blocks and listening to the plunk! of them falling against the metal. Lilith turned the stove on and began to stir the butter around until it was melted and bubbling.
"Now, this is where it needs to be watched closely. It can turn from browned to burnt in seconds."
The man nodded, just happy to listen to her explain things. He could tell she was not only skilled but invested in the culinary arts.
"What will this be used in?" He inquired.
"Around 3/4 for chocolate chip cookies, and the remaining butter will be used in my rice krispie treats."
König's head tipped to the side, his ears perked up.
"What are those?"
"Hm?"
"Rice Krispies?"
"Oh, so there's this cereal made with puffed rice, a lot of people will melt marshmallows and mix it with them to make these treats that are both crispy and chewy. But don't get that cheap stuff from the American stores here, mine are better." She explained with a smile on her face.
"I am sure they are then."
By then, the butter was browned, and Lilith scraped the pot with a rubber spatula while König tipped it over a huge container.
"This has to cool, so in the meantime, I'm gonna start frosting."
For the next hour, they worked side by side, König doing the simpler things like cutting fruit for jams while Lilith completed more technical tasks such as making frosting and toasting ingredients. When she pulled a tray of pleasantly burnished marshmallows out of the oven, she had to smack König's hand away so he wouldn't burn himself trying to swipe a taste.
"Bitteee..." He looked at her with his best puppy-dog eyes.
She reached up to pet him quickly before reminding him that he needed to wait for the final product.
"Whiny puppy..." Lilith whispered to herself, unaware that König could pick up those words, and they shot straight downward within him.
"You do understand I am 10 years older, Lilith?"
She ignored him and began mixing the ingredients for the Rice Krispie treats. Toasted marshmallows, browned butter, and even the cereal was toasted. The aroma wafted through the metallic industrial kitchen. Working quickly, she pressed the mixture into a greased sheet pan and sprinkled salt over it.
"While that cools, wanna see the special fall menu?"
"Ja, bitte."
She pulled out a binder full of laminated pages and loose notes, flipping through it until she landed on a stained page labeled "Fall/Halloween."
"I'm proud to say that a lot of these were my ideas! The apple cake was still my grandmother's, but the pumpkin cupcakes, red velvet 'vampire' cupcakes, ghost cake pops, and apple cider donuts were all recipes I developed or designed!"
"Are these all your pictures?" König wondered out loud.
"Yeah!"
She went on to explain all of the little details in her recipes, like how the "blood" on the red velvet cupcakes was actually a berry coulis and not red icing or how she kept having the frosting stick to the paper when she tried to flatten it to make jack-o-lantern faces for the first time.
To tell the truth, she loved having the undivided attention of someone to explain her passion. Instead of just looking off to the side or straight up telling her they didn't care, König looked at her with his beautiful eyes and absorbed every word. She wondered if he had anything he was passionate about like this.
He was so wonderful to look at, too; the way his shirt outlined his arm muscles was captivating, and she got just a hint last night about what he looked like under the hood. He had the softest hair I've ever felt. Long, too, perfect for grabbing while he-
"Lilith, is everything alright?"
"Huh... yeah!" Her face reddened; she didn't realize she had zoned out.
He's not interested, you fucking cow. She thought to herself.
"Anyways, let's make cookies, hm?"
"Ja."
The cookie-making process went by quickly, although König was splashed in the face with flour from the mixer once and had to shake his hood off outside.
"Now the dough is going to sit in the fridge to develop flavor overnight! The frosting is made, the cakes are cooling, so I think we can rest. Let's go back home, okay?"
After a short rest, Lilith started boiling a pot of water on the stove and taking sausage out of its casings to saute.
"What are you making?"
König tipped his head to the side and sniffed the air.
"Sausage and broccoli pasta. Is that okay?"
"Ja, anything you make ist good, Lilith."
She beamed internally at his words.
After Lilith finished the kitchen, she flopped down on the couch, finally off her feet for the rest of the day. She took out her phone and panicked when she saw 9 missed calls.
"I'm so sorry, I was prepping the bakery all day, Mark."
"Pick up."
"Hello?"
"Hello."
"Lilith, pick up."
"We need to talk."
Mark is calling...
She picked up the phone and held it to her ear.
"Lilith, fucking pick up when I call you next time."
"Mark, I told you this morning, I was prepping the bakery."
"Whatever. I need you to take Holly."
"What? We agreed she was going to stay in school in the US for now."
"I need you to take her."
"Why?"
"Um, well, I just uhhh, got a new job, and I won't be around as often."
"So you're going to ship our kid across the world?"
"Will you just help me the fuck out? You're the parent too, Lilith."
She sighed. How was she going to manage the bakery with a 5-year-old?
"Mark, I'm running a business, I'm scared I won't be able to take care of her."
"Well, that's too fucking bad, maybe if you took some time off from whoring around after work, you'd be able to. Besides, the tickets are already booked. $1000, Lilith."
A chill ran up her spine. Memories of how he would accuse her of 'whoring around' came flooding back. Right before he would confess to cheating. And now, she had to figure out how to handle her beloved daughter while running the bakery.
"... Alright, Mark. Sure. When does she arrive?"
"3 weeks."
"And you'll be coming with her, right?"
"Uh, yeah."
"Can I please talk to Holly?"
"Yeah, sure, HOLLY!" He hollered.
The camera turned on, and she watched as her little cream-colored Siamese kitten ran into the room.
"MOMMY! MOMMY! I GET TO SEE YOU! I GET TO SEE YOU, MOMMY!"
Lilith smiled. Her daughter stared into the camera with joy in her heterochromatic eyes. One was light blue, like any other kitten, and the other was green and shaped like a cat's eye.
"Yes you do, sweetheart, I am so happy to see you!"
"Yayyyyyy, I'm so excited, mommy!"
"What do you want to do when you get here, Holly?"
"Hmmmmmmm."
She tapped her finger to her mouth, her lips curling into that unmistakable 5-year-old smile.
"I wanna... I dunno!"
"Alright, sweetheart, we'll just figure it out when you get here."
"Okay, mommy!"
Just then, König called out to Lilith, asking her some question about cups.
"Mommy, who is that?" Holly demanded.
Right, she would have to explain that to Holly.
"Ah, sweetie, he's a new friend of Mommy's, you may meet him eventually!"
"Okay Mommy!"
Mark spoke up once again.
"Alright Holly, I need the phone back now, go play with your dolls!"
"Ok!"
The door slammed, and Mark made his opinions heard.
"So, you are whoring yourself out to any man who's drunk enough to sleep with you?"
"It's not like that, and you know it! He's helping at my bakery!"
"Uh-huh, whatever, goodbye."
He hung up the phone as soon as he was finished speaking. Lilith sighed and rubbed her temples. Mark was the biggest mistake she had ever made; the only good thing that came out of it was Holly. The 5 years of marriage with him were soul-crushing.
Just then, she felt a weight in her lap. Upon looking down, what stared up at her were the familiar begging eyes of König.
"You are sad, what is wrong?"
"... Nothing."
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah."
Lilith brought her hand to her lap, and König bonked his head into it.
"Are you asking to be pet?"
"Bitteee!"
He pushed his head into her hand again, and Lilith began petting him softly.
"Did I help you enough today?"
"Yes, you were a very big help, König."
The man smiled under his hood, and his tail wagged furiously behind him.
"A good boy, even." Lilith laughed to herself, the whole situation being humorous to her still. She had a 6'10" veteran German Shepherd laying on her, begging for affection like a cat.
König heard those words and almost ascended to heaven.
"You mean it?"
Lilith chuckled, mildly surprised at his response.
"I suppose so."
"I guess I have always needed purpose in life, sorry."
"What are you sorry about, König? I'm happy to validate you!"
"Danke, Lilith..."
His eyes went from half-lidded to closed, and Lilith turned on a show while the man dozed off for the night.

"Guten Morgen, ist diese Reihenfolge korrekt?" - Good morning, is this order correct?
"Wunderbar. Benötigen sie hilfe beim entladen?" - Wonderful, do you need help unloading?
"Nein, ich habe ihn." - No, I have him.
