"After his wife died To was left with his son to take care by himself. Maybe it was the bills or the loss of the woman he loved, but he changed. He'd bring women over every night, while his son slept. And of course, you as his neighbor was the one who suffered the most. It was hard sleeping with the banging noises against the wall and the female voices. So one day you decided to confront him. You knocked on the door agressively until he opened it, with a frown and a raised eyebrow."

"What?"

"Toji leans against the door frame, his gaze lingering on you with a hint of amusement dancing in his eyes."

"Oh? So you're offering to be my knight in shining armor, huh? How noble of you." "He smirks, his voice low and teasing." "As for keeping it down at night, well, I can't make any promises. But maybe if you join us one of these nights, you won't mind the noise so much."

"His words carry a suggestive undertone, a playful challenge glinting in his eyes."

"Toji watches you with a faint smirk, his eyes lingering on your retreating form."

"Well, isn't that sweet of you, neighbor?" "He calls out, his voice carrying a tone of amusement." "But don't worry about me. I've got everything under control."

"As you disappear into your apartment, he leans back against the door frame, a knowing smile playing on his lips." "You're too kind, sweetheart. Too kind indeed."

"Toji returns home with his son, tired from a long day of work and picking up his son from daycare. As he approaches his apartment door, he notices the care package sitting there waiting for him. Curiosity piqued, he stoops to pick it up, taking in the contents with a raised eyebrow."

"Well well well, what do we have here?" "He murmurs, a hint of surprise and amusement in his voice as he glances at the homemade food and toys for his son." "Looks like someone's trying to win me over."

"Despite his initial reluctance to let anyone into his life, Toji can't help but feel a touch of gratitude and appreciation towards you. He takes the package inside, enjoying the thoughtful gifts throughout the evening."

"Toji opens the door, a faint look of surprise crossing his features at your offer."

"Huh, didn't expect you to be so eager to help out." "He chuckles, shifting his son in his arms." "But I guess I could use a hand. Thanks."

"He steps aside to let you in, appreciative of your willingness to lend a hand in his time of need." "Just keep an eye on him, yeah? He's a handful sometimes."

"As you step inside, Toji's gaze lingers on you, a faint smile tugging at the corners of his lips."

"Toji watches you with a smirk, amused by your easy banter and the gentle way you interact with his son."

"Child psychologist, huh? Well, aren't I lucky to have you as a neighbor?" "He remarks, his tone teasing."

"Meanwhile, his son looks up at you with wide eyes, clutching his stuffed bear tightly. He shyly returns your greeting, his little voice barely above a whisper."

"Yeah, that's Bear." "Toji answers for his son, a fond smile on his face." "He takes that thing everywhere. Can't sleep without it."

"As you settle in to watch over his son, Toji gives you a nod of thanks before disappearing to get ready for work."

"The boy's eyes light up with curiosity as you mention your own stuffed bunny, and he nods eagerly at your offer to see it. He reaches out to touch the bunny in your hands, his fingers tracing the worn fabric with interest."

"That's Bunny?" "He asks in a soft voice, a hint of wonder coloring his words."

"Toji watches from the doorway, a faint smile tugging at his lips as he sees his son warming up to you so quickly. He can't help but feel a sense of gratitude towards you for your kindness and patience."

The boy's eyes widen with excitement as you hand him the stuffed toy, listening intently to your words. He nods eagerly at your suggestion, his face lighting up with a bright smile.

"Yeah! Superheroes!" "He exclaims, his tiny hands clutching onto Bunny tightly."

"Toji watches with a soft smile, impressed by how quickly his son has taken to you. He heads off to work, leaving you and his son to enjoy your time together."

"Toji nods appreciatively, a hint of gratitude in his eyes as he glances back at you."

"Thanks, I owe you one." "He offers a small smile before heading out the door, leaving you alone with his son."

"As the door closes behind him, you turn your attention back to the little boy, ready to spend the day playing superheroes with him."

"Toji enters the apartment, tired but greeted by the sounds of laughter and the smell of food. He pauses in the doorway, a soft smile gracing his lips as he watches the scene before him."

"Well, well, what do we have here?" "He muses, his voice carrying a hint of amusement." "Looks like you two have been busy."

"As you glance up at him, he meets your gaze, a warmth in his eyes that wasn't there before." "Thanks for looking after him today. He seems to have had a blast."

The boy nods enthusiastically, his eyes sparkling with excitement as he begins to recount all the adventures he had with you throughout the day. Toji listens with a fond smile, his heart swelling with gratitude towards you for making his son's day so special.

"That sounds like quite the day, huh?" "Toji remarks, a hint of amusement in his tone." "Looks like I owe you more than just one, huh?"

"As you share a knowing smile with Toji, a sense of warmth and camaraderie settles over the room, solidifying the bond that has formed between you and your neighbor's family."

"Alright, I'll leave you two to it then." "He says with a grin, heading off to freshen up while you and his son continue your playful game of chef."

"As you playfully continue your cooking game with the boy, Toji can't help but feel a sense of gratitude for having you as a neighbor, someone who not only looks out for him but also brings joy and laughter into their lives."

Toji enters the kitchen, a smile spreading across his face at the sight of you and his son working together on the brownie batter. He leans against the doorway, watching with fondness as you share a playful moment, letting the boy lick the batter off your finger.

"Well, it looks like you two are having a blast in here," "he remarks with a chuckle, his tone filled with warmth and amusement."

"As you meet his gaze, you can't help but feel a flutter in your chest at the sight of his smile, a sense of contentment settling over you as you continue to enjoy the simple pleasures of cooking and bonding with your neighbor and his son."

The boy nods eagerly, his eyes shining with excitement as he looks up at his father. "Daddy, come play with us!" he exclaims, his voice filled with enthusiasm.

Toji's smile widens at his son's invitation, and he pushes himself off the doorway, stepping into the kitchen to join in the fun. "Alright, alright, count me in," he says with a chuckle, rolling up his sleeves as he prepares to join you and his son in your cooking and baking adventure.

As you work together to finish the brownies and soup, the kitchen fills with laughter and the scent of delicious food, solidifying the bond between you and your neighbor's family even further.

Toji's brow furrows slightly as he notices his son's lack of interest in his beloved stuffed bear. He glances around the table, his gaze landing on you and the boy in your lap, a curious expression crossing his features.

"Hey, where's Bear?" "Toji asks, his voice filled with concern as he scans the table for the missing stuffed toy."

"As you continue to bond with his son over dinner, Toji can't help but feel a sense of relief knowing that he has someone like you looking out for them, someone who understands and cares for his son as much as he does."
