Tzuyu's Bakery

@❀ Tzuyu Sana wanted to punch that son of a , whoever he was, ing . Tzuyu was such a good person, beautiful, kind, and a wonderful mother and that bastard didn't deserve her. She patted Tzuyu's back lightly "I promise you this, I will not him ever try to take your baby away from you. I'm going to help you, I'm going to make it so he'll never be able to touch you again" she whispered. She knew she'd have to reveal her identity sooner than she'd wanted to but she knew she'd be able to help Tzuyu and that's all that matters

@❀ Sana Tzuyu was on the verge of an anxiety attack, or something of the sort. She was slightly comforted when the other woman hugged her out of the blue. But the thoughts circled her mind. "But he has people in even higher places... I don't know what to do, Sana..." She let Sana take Guanlin and put him in the car. She was fighting back all the emotions she never let anyone see. The city knows her as the happy-go-lucky charity baker... And now she's internally the postpartum depressed, anxiety ridden mother... She buried her face in Sana's shoulder. "I hope so." She whimpered.

@❀ Tzuyu Sana felt her heartbreak as she felt the hurt and fear and Tzuyu's voice, not asking the mother before gently pulling her into a hug being careful not to crush Guanlin "It's going to be okay Tzuyu, you've got people in high places that will take care of you and make sure nothing like that would happen" she rubbed Tzuyu's back slowly and then took Guanlin and buckled him into the car seat in the back before closing the door and pulling Tzuyu back into another hug, tighter this time "It's going to be okay"

@❀ Sana Tzuyu let out a soft sigh. "I don't know if I ever will be able to... I'm more scared about his dad changing his mind... And then trying to take him from me... It's something he would do... I can't lose my baby, Sana." She said quietly. Her voice slowly crumbling as she held Guanlin close to her chest. "Please do... Or... If something happens... To me or him... Just wake me up..." She locked the door and followed Sana to the car. "Please... I can hardly keep my eyes open..." Clearly tired. From lack of sleep and her depression... And anxiety to top it all off.

@❀ Tzuyu Sana gave a small smile "I understand, I wouldn't babysit him until you were ready to be without him for a few hours. I won't rush you, the bond between a mother and a child is something exquisitely beautiful" she stood up from the chair and handed Guanlin back to Tzuyu "I'd be happy to, but only if he gets fussy" she held the door open for Tzuyu and let her lock up before gently taking the keys and going to the only car in front of the bakery "Do you need me to buckle him in for you?" she offered to the tired mother

@❀ Sana Tzuyu sighed, shrugging. "He said I should be fine soon. As long as I take my meds." She said, sighing. She glanced at her baby for a moment. "I don't think I want to leave him yet... Maybe when he's a little older... And I've weaned him off feeding..." She said, humming softly. "However... When we get home... I am going to sleep... If he fusses... Wake me up so I can feed him... Alright?" She hurried to close and turned to Sana. "Please~." She held her arms out for her baby.

@❀ Tzuyu Sana's eyes widened, poor Tzuyu she wished she'd known sooner. "I'm sorry to hear that, especially going through it alone.If you ever need to just take time for yourself, I can babysit Guanlin. Maybe you could go to a spa and relax for a day?" she suggested. Sana wanted to make Tzuyu feel better, she knew it wasn't going to instantly go away but she hoped that Tzuyu could relax for once. "I'd be happy to drive you both home" she smiled and sat down in one of the chairs bouncing Guanlin on her knee but making sure to hold him tight as she waited for Tzuyu to finish cleaning up. "Okay, would you like to take your adorable baby boy back into your arms, at least until we get to your car I mean"

@❀ Sana Tzuyu gave a small nod. "Oh... No... I'm not sick..." She said, sighing. "At least not like that... My doctor said I have postpartum depression..." She looked back at Sana after a moment. "That would be really nice... I just want to go home, sleep, and never get up again." Guanlin was cooing and gurgling happily as he sat there on the counter. She looked at Sana for a moment before nodding. "Okay..." She let Sana take Guanlin and got everything organized to leave. She finished moments later. "Alright... Let's go..."

@❀ Tzuyu Sana sighed softly "I just wanted to make sure that you didn't have a fever, which you don't from what I can tell" she genuinely was concerned, about the young mother. "Would you like me to help you clean up before I drive you and Guanlin home? I don't have anything else going on today so I'd like to help as much as I can" she smiled down at Guanlin, he was absolutely adorable and a spitting image of Tzuyu "Here" she walked around the counter and washed her hands in the sink before taking Guanlin "I'll take care of this cutie while you close up"

@❀ Sana Tzuyu tilted her head as the other reached over to feel her forehead. "What are you do?" She asked, confused. She sighed and rested her chin on her hand. Her elbow propped up on the counter. "Mmmm... I drive here... My car is outside..." She looked at Sana. "Really? That'd be nice... I just... Can't handle it today..." She just felt depressed. That's all. Like the world was just against her... She's such a nice person... Why did this happen to her? How did she end up being a single parent? Why was she treated like trash and cheated on? She'd never know the answer to those questions. She laughed softly. "You're not wrong..." Guanlin simply cooed and squealed in response. "That's right, baby..."

@❀ Tzuyu Sana's brows furrowed in concern, she quickly set her drink and muffin down to reach across the counter and place her hand on Tzuyu's forehead to make sure that she didn't have a temperature. "Do you drive to work or do you live nearby, since you aren't feeling well I was wondering if I could help you get home, I wouldn't want anything to happen to you" she smiled softly "Daddy is a rich bastard who doesn't deserve either of you beautiful sweet angels"

@❀ Sana Tzuyu looked at her phone when it buzzed. "Thank you." She said, smiling. She looked back at Sana and sighed. "I might close shop early today... I'm just... Not feeling it right now..." She didn't want to openly admit it but she did have postpartum depression. Even though she constantly acts okay. Sometimes she just can't. She watched Sana and Guanlin and smiled. "Mmmm... He better be... Without dad in his life... I'm sure he'll turn out just fine. Though... Daddy pays high child support because he's a rich bastard."

@❀ Tzuyu Sana's eyes widened slightly when Tzuyu gave her a business card with her phone number on it, it was like the young mother had read her mind. She finally relaxed and took out her phone to enter Tzuyu's number in, sending Tzuyu a quick text along with the link to the video "And done" she looked into Tzuyu's eyes "I know that you're an amazing mom and you'll make sure he'll be nothing like his dad" Sana cooed softly at Guanlin "Right Guanlin, you are going to be like your mommy, yes you are"

@❀ Sana Tzuyu nodded a little bit. "Thank you..." She said, sighing. "Umm... Here." She grabbed one of her business cards and wrote her cellphone number on it. "There. My cell number..." She held onto Guanlin, humming softly. "Mmmm... I love him... He's my little angel..." A small hum leaving her lips. "He's definitely a gift... Even if his dad is an and a half..." She couldn't help but smile as Guanlin held Sana's finger in his tiny and a babbled.

@❀ Tzuyu Sana gave a reassuring smile "I know you do, so I'll send you a link to the video, how does that sound?" and then she realized she didn't even have Tzuyu's phone number, she'd been going there every day for so long that it didn't matter. "He's a beautiful accident, or maybe it was fate that you had him? That being with a horrible person actually gave you something good. You were given a gift, and that gift is Guanlin" she reached her hand out and let Guanlin wrap his hand around her finger. She smiled happily at the baby and then back at Tzuyu

@❀ Sana Tzuyu tilted her head slightly at the other woman's question. "No... I haven't... I should... If it helped her... It could potentially help me... I just want to make sure he's getting everything he needs." She said, sighing. "Even if he wasn't supposed to happen... He's my baby and I love him..." She sat him on the counter, supporting him and his head. "Ah... I was going to go to one of those... But I couldn't... I have too much to do..." She laughed as Guanlin reached out for Sana. "Thank you~ Thankfully he came out looking more like me than that ..."

@❀ Tzuyu Sana felt so bad for her, to be so stressed that she can't feed "Have you tried massaging them? My sister had something similar happen and her husband followed a tutorial to help her, she was able to feed after it perfectly fine" she suggested and took out her phone trying to see if she could find the video "It's from a new mothers class" she smiled at Guanlin and made a silly face "Well I like him too, he's absolutely adorable"

@❀ Sana Tzuyu hummed softly, before sighing. "Yeah... You have no idea... It gets crazy sometimes. I've had to switch him over to formula because the stress is effecting my ability to feed..." She said, shaking her head. "At least sometimes." She appreciated that at least Sana understood what she was going through with the baby and the bakery all together. Feeling the other's hand brush against her, smiling. "Mmmm... Of course~." She laughed softy as Guanlin cooed and giggled at Sana. "He likes you~."

@❀ Tzuyu Sana giggles softly and shook her head "You don't have to apologize, you're not only running this bakery but you're also taking care of a baby, you have the right to be tired" she smiled encouragingly, Tzuyu has always held her head up no matter the hardships she's gone through. Sana loved that about her, among other things.
She took the drink and muffin from Tzuyu, their hands brushing together in the process.
"Thank you" she placed the money on the counter as she cooed at the baby "Oh he's such a cutie pie, just like his momma. He even has your eyes"

@❀ Sana Tzuyu smiled a little. "Sorry. I'm really tired today~." She said, humming. "Mmm... Of course~" Tzuyu moved to get the muffing and coffee for Sana. She was always happy to see Sana walk through the doors. She couldn't understand why. Thinking it was probably just like seeing a good friend over and over again. But she thought maybe there was more to it than that. Tzuyu smiled and handed Sana the muffin and coffee. "You know where the cream and sugar is~." She hummed softly. "Guanlin loves it~." She went to get the 4-month old. She got him out of his carrier and carried him to the counter. "Guanlin~ Say hi to Sana~!"

@❀ Tzuyu Sana smiled wider as Tzuyu yawned, she found it endearing to say the least "I'll have a blueberry muffin and some coffee please" she leaned closer, tempted to reach out and squeeze the woman's hand, she always worked so incredibly hard and she was running the little bakery on her own. Originally Sana had gone there to review the food after hearing people talk about it, she wanted to see if it was as good as everyone had said. It was, and more. She didn't expect the feelings she'd grown for the single mother, but now that they were there she couldn't get them to go away. She wanted to know Tzuyu more each day, and one day tell her the truth and invest in the little shop but not yet. "I bet Guanlin loves that, how is the little guy I haven't seen him in a few days?"

@❀ Sana Tzuyu sighed softly as she finished feeding the baby. Tired from the work and lack of sleep she had been getting the past 10 or so months. She heard the door open and fixed herself and washed her hands, hurrying to the counter. "Sana~ Hi! Nice to see you! What can I get you today?" She asked, holding back a yawn. A happy smile on her lips as she looked at the other woman. "It is~... That's why I have the window open in the back for Guanlin so he can have fresh air back there..."

@❀ Tzuyu Sana pulled the door open to the little bakery that she had been frequenting the past few weeks, a bell ringing above the door as she steps inside. She gives a small smile to the regulars and then walks up to the empty counter giving a smile to the woman "Good morning, Tzuyu" she said in a cheery voice "It's a beautiful day outside, make sure that you get a chance to enjoy it"
