Eric Smith had a 15-month-old son who had just started to utter words.
He was overjoyed when his son said mama and papa.
Maria
But now he felt like crying.
His son, Jack Smith, refused to eat anything since morning and clenched his mouth shut.
It had been only two days since he was left alone with his son.
He was flustered by this unprecedented situation.
He had been trying to feed his son for 30 minutes.
He regretted it.
Why didnt I learn from her then?
He remembered how his wife had struggled to feed their son one more spoonful.
Nooo!
He looked at his son who was sitting in a baby chair and banging the small table with both hands.
He felt like he was going to get sick.
He had tried everything from airplane games to train games with the tiny spoon in his hand, but nothing worked.
He finally resorted to his last option.
I didnt want to bother you
But he couldnt let his son starve.
. He could watch it right away by clicking on it.
What is this?
He couldnt tell from the title alone.
LALAs video continued.
[Let me tell you briefly, this is a video that my friend uploaded. We originally intended to watch it among ourselves, but I persuaded her to post it on YouTube.]
He wondered what kind of video it was that she had to persuade her.
[This video is for the kids, not the parents. My daughter did too. Set it up so that your baby can see it well and try feeding them formula and baby food. Theyll eat very well.]
Several photos of LALAs daughter eating while watching her smartphone were uploaded.
He turned his head and looked at Jack, who still had his mouth shut.
[The formula and baby food were my personal recommendations, but these videos are a must-watch. Really, absolutely essential! Ill see you soon in the next video! Bye everyone!]
With that, LALAs video ended.
The only thing left was the video that LALA recommended.
He hesitated for a moment and decided to try as she said. His last resort, Maria, had left everything to him.
He placed the PinePad where Jack could see it well and heated up Jacks baby food.
It was food made with LALAs recommended baby food recipe.
He thought that if it was her recommended baby food, he would eat better while watching the video.
Will this really work?
He doubted it, but seeing Jack who hadnt eaten for an hour, he had no choice but to try.
Jack clenched his mouth shut and he sighed. He placed the baby food in front of Jack.
He sat next to Jack and decided to feed him while watching the video together.
Please eat
The video started.
A baby with black hair appeared on the screen.
A younger baby than Jack, who looked like he wasnt even one year old yet, was sitting in a baby chair.
He was a cute baby with chubby cheeks and distinct features.
Then a small sound was heard.
It was a mans voice.
Daddy? Jun?
The channel name appeared.
[JUN].
It seemed like the babys name.
A womans hand came out and showed the white baby food on the small spoon she was holding.
He also scooped some baby food on Jacks spoon.
And he sneaked a peek at his son.
His sons expression softened slightly and he stared at the video.
Oh!
He held his breath and waited for the timing.
The baby in the video, Jun, opened his mouth and the spoon went in.
Jun waved his arms happily.
Jacks eyes widened.
He saw a mysterious baby with shiny hair eating baby food.
Very deliciously.
Yum yum.
He felt like he wanted to follow him for some reason.
Ahh! Ahh!
Jack opened his mouth.
He noticed it.
Now!
Swoosh!
The spoon went into Jacks mouth.
Jack chewed and swallowed without spitting it out.
His eyes widened.
Oh, ohh, ohhh!!
He felt like shouting with emotion, but he held back.
There was still a lot of baby food left.
Papa! Papa!
Jack, who had eaten a whole bowl of baby food, hugged Eric and kept calling him papa.
He felt like tears were blurring his vision.
No, this is not the time.
He quickly took out his PinePad and wrote a comment on Juns video.
He quickly subscribed and pressed the like button.
He made sure he could play it easily next time he fed Jack.
-He ate everything! It really works!
-My daughter ate everything too! I recommend this for babies who dont eat!
<I tried for an hour but couldnt feed him anything, but as soon as he saw the video he ate everything! Jun! Thank you so much!
And he also went to LALAs video that introduced Juns video.
The short two-minute video had many disappointed comments, but they were gradually deleted.
It wasnt LALA who deleted them.
The people who wrote the comments voluntarily deleted them.
-Thank you! Please tell your friend that it was really helpful!
-Thank you for persuading her! My son eats really well!
-Im the mom who wrote a comment earlier. Im sorry. Really Thank you for uploading the video.
Ding dong-!
-Did you feed Jack?
It was Maria.
He wrote a message with a bright face. He also sent a picture of the empty baby food bowl.
He did it for his wife who was working hard and worrying about her son and husband who were having trouble feeding him.
<Mission complete! He ate everything!
-How did you do it!? Youre amazing!
He laughed.
He planned to keep Juns video a secret until Maria came home.
He wanted to show off how well he could feed him without her. Of course, he would be found out as soon as she came back.
<Im good, arent I!!
Just like Eric Smith, the viewers who watched [LALAS DAY] and [JUN]s videos and fed their babies formula and baby food increased.
The comments and likes of the two videos also increased.
24 hours after the video was uploaded.
The number of views was close to one million.
