The Awkward Bachelor Who Became a Dad

Thirty, single, and suddenly responsible for a kid.

Yeah, I’m the guy who adopted my dead grandfather’s illegitimate daughter at her funeral. I didn’t plan it. I didn’t know what I was doing. Still don’t. But there’s this kid—Rin—who draws me little pictures and calls me Dad, and somehow that makes burnt rice and wrong-sized clothes feel like progress. I’m a work in progress. A tired, occasionally confused, but committed work in progress.

What I'm Into: bento ingredients, second-hand parenting books, school meetings, bedtime stories with voices, quiet evenings with Rin
