“He walked in on Jiea and I.” Jaebum said. “So?” Seonghwa asked. “So, we were busy.” Jaebum said. “So lock the door then.” Daewon said, “I thought we went over that rule before.” He added with a sigh. “He should learn some manners, at least these two have the decency to knock before entering the room.” Jaebum said, pointing at Changbin and Yuta.

“Jae, shut up, you’re making it worse.” Seonghwa said, but it didn’t stop Felix from getting up and leaving the table.

Mia frowned before also getting up and leaving the table, hearing Seonghwa say “see what you’ve done.” Followed by Jaebum’s “why am I always getting blamed for shit around here!”

---

Mia followed Felix back to the room he shared with the kids, before sitting down beside him on the bed. “Don’t listen to him, Lix. It wasn’t your fault, Seonghwa oppa is right, Jaebum oppa should have locked the door..” she said softly, hoping to cheer him up.

@ beomkitty

Felix looked up at Mia after he wiped his tears from his eyes. "I should've knocked, but the door was somewhat open and I wanted to surprise Jeia.. I didnt even know Jae was back or else I would've been more careful. " he said sadly. "He doesn't seem to like meanymore and I don't know why." He frowned again but hugged Mia.

"Because you're being an ass, that's why." Kai said to Jaebum, rolling his eyes at the older. "Maybe if you lose the attitude, maybe you will think clearly and remember to close lock the door if you two are going to fuck."

@ Im.JB

“Can we stop talking about this while we are eating? Jae, you need to apologize to Felix or else he’s going to think you don’t want him around anymore.” Daewon sighed, as he ate his soup.

“And Kai needs to apologize to Mia before she leaves.” Seonghwa said as he looked at the younger, who was trying to sober himself up with the stew.

---

Mia hugged him back. “Don’t say that, Jaebum loves you, he’s just…he has anger problems, that’s for damn sure.” She said as she rubbed Felix’s back.

@ beomkitty

Felix sighed and shrugged his shoulders, "Maybe. Yuta told me that he hates me because Jeia loves me more and gives me more attention and that I'm trying to take her away from him, but I'm not. Jeia is more like a big sister and a mom to me. She treats me way better than my family does. I dont mean to take her away from Jaebum. I want them to be together and get married one day." He said, still looking down.

Kai watched Jaebum grumbled under his breath. However he rolled his eyes when he heard Seonghwa tell him to apologize. "I dont have anything to apologize for. " he said.

@ Im.JB

“Well, we all know that isn’t true. I could try to talk to Jaebum if you want me too.” Mia suggested as she rubbed his back. “Then again, I don’t know if he would listen.” She sighed.

---

“You were being rude to her, you called her a brat, she’s already” Seonghwa stopped, figuring it wouldn’t be right to tell Mia’s business. He put some stew in a Tupperware for Jiea before putting it in the fridge.

@ beomkitty

Felix sighed. "Its okay. I'll go talk to him later when he cools off." He said with a small smile and hugged her. "Thank you for checking on me. I love you Mia."

"Whatever man." Kai said and pushed his empty bowl of soup to the side, roughly that it slipped off the table and crashed onto the floor, shattering to pieces. He left to go to his room and locked the door so no one would bother him.

"Ugh damnit Kai" Geon said with a sigh before starting to clean the mess. However, Daewon looked at Seonghwa. "Hey what's going with Mia?"

@ Im.JB

“I love you too, Felix.” Mia smiled and then felt her phone vibrate. “Ah, I have to go. My parents are going to be home soon and I’m supposed to be there.” She sighed and got up. “Cheer up, okay?” She smiled and kissed his cheek, before leaving the room.

She walked back to the kitchen, “Daewon, can you give me a ride home? My parents will be home soon and I’m supposed to be there before they get home.” She said softly.

Seonghwa was about to tell Daewon what was going on, but stopped whenever Mia came into the room. “Do you want me to pack your stew up for you?” Seonghwa asked her. “No thank you, oppa. You can just save it and I’ll eat it tomorrow.” She said, before saying bye to all of them, then going to wait on Daewon.

@ beomkitty

Felix blushed but waved to Mia. "See you later Mia. Have a good night." He said, giving her his sweetest smile. He way he'd her leave before going back to the kitchen and stood next to Jaebum. "I'm really sorry for barging into the room earlier." He apologized to the older. "I really didnt mean to interrupt you two."

"Felix, you don't need to apologize." Geon said said softly, but then looked at Jaebum. "Apologize to Felix, and mean it."

Daewon walked to his car and unlocked it so that he and Mia could get in. During the drive, he noticed that Mia was really quiet and he wanted to ask her what was wrong. "Hey, is everything okay at school? You're pretty quiet during dinner and then Seonghwas about to say something in regards to it."

@ Im.JB

“I’m sorry for yelling at you, Felix.” Jaebum sighed, after being quiet for a moment. “Next time, I’ll make sure to lock the door.” He said and got up, putting his empty bowl in the sink before leaving the kitchen.

---

Mia looked at him. “No, everything is fine. Just waiting to graduate. I don’t know what Seonghwa was talking about.” She lied, but she knew Daewon would believe her over Seonghwa anyway.

@ beomkitty

Felix nodded "I'll knock next time too." He said and then looked Seonghwa "is there any stew left over since I didnt get to finish mine?" He asked with a soft voice. Although Felix looked like bad bit with his tattoos and piercings, but in reality he is a kind and soft guy.

Daewon nodded and smiled. "We cant wait either. We're going to be so loud when we cheer your name during graduation and then we will throw you a big party."

@ Im.JB

“Of course.” Seonghwa smiled and got Felix a new bowl, before boxing the rest of it up and putting it away and then proceeded to clean the kitchen up while Felix ate the rest of his stew.

---

Mia smiled and then frowned, “I don’t know if you guys will be able to come to my graduation, you know how strict the school is about tattoos and piercings..” she sighed. “But hopefully, you guys can think of a way around it and still come, only 2 more months..”

@ beomkitty

"Thank you Hwa." He said and smiled happily.

Daewon smiled, "We're not going to let some stupid rules prevent us seeing you graduate baby girl." He said and kissed her cheek. Soon he pulled up to her house. "Love you sweet girl. See you tomorrow?"

@ Im.JB

“Of course.” Seonghwa smiled as he finished cleaning up. “I’m heading to bed, okay?” He said, ruffling Felix’s hair as he left the kitchen.

---

Mia nodded. “See you tomorrow, oppa.” She said and gave him a quick hug before getting out and heading inside her house. She got changed before she started making dinner for her parents so it would be ready when they get home.

@ beomkitty

"Okay. Good night Seonghwa" Felix said and smiled as he continued to eat his soup. Once he was done, he decided to sit in the living room and watch TV. He wanted to make sure he was there when Jeia comes back home since everyone was either sleep or hanging out somewhere.

Daewon made sure he watched Mia get in safely before driving back to the warehouse.

@ Im.JB

“You coming to bed?” Changbin asked Felix a little while later, seeing that the younger boy was still awake. “I think he’s waiting on Jiea.” Yuta chuckled as he headed to their room.

---

When Mia’s parents came home, they ate dinner before they all sat down to pray. Once they were done, her parents headed to bed while Mia cleaned up the kitchen and then headed up to her own room, flopping down on her bed.

She pulled her phone out and decided to text Kai. You awake, oppa?

@ beomkitty

"You miss your mommy?" Changbin teased the younger boy. "You're so soft, Felix." He said and then rolled his eyes before going to their room.

Felix was trying to ignore him and Yuta and kept his eyes to the floor as he fiddled with his fingers to keep him from having an anxiety attack.

Kai was in his room laying in his bed, listening to the background noise from the tv while hi ssd's focus was in the ceiling. He heard his phone go off and saw that he received a text from Mia. He sighed and texted her back. Yeah. Shouldn't you be in bed?

@ Im.JB

“You two stop.” Geon said, coming out from the room. “Go to bed.” He told Changbin and Yuta, before sitting down beside Felix. “Do you want to talk about it, Felix?” He asked him.

---

Mia sighed. I will soon, I just wanted to say sorry for getting in your business earlier about the drinking.. she sent before sitting her phone down. She sighed and covered her ears as she heard her parents having sex in the next room over.

@ beomkitty

Felix didnt look at Geon. His anxiety was starting to surface and he was doing his best to keep calm. "I'm just worried about Jeia. Her job is making her work a lot." He said, telling him the half truth. "Why does no one like me?" He said sadly and then a tear rolled down his cheek.

Kai sighed. It's fine. I was being an asshole to you and I shouldn't have. I just have a lot on my mind.

@ Im.JB

“What are you talking about? Daewon and I like you, Seonghwa likes you, Kai likes you, Mia adores you…if you are referring to Jaebum, Changbin and Yuta, I don’t know what their problems are.” Geon frowned as he rubbed Felix’s back.

---

Do you want to talk about it? Mia sent as she turned on some music to drown out her mother’s screaming.

@ beomkitty

"I feel like I'm a burden and that I need to be taken care of like I cant take care of myself. And then I always break down or have a panic attack when sense a hint of annoyance or anger towards me. I've been a screw up my entire life, useless, and a waste of space." He said as more tears rolled down his face.

Kai looked at his phone, not sure what to say. He wasnt the type to talk about his feelings. It would make him look like a pussy, like Felix and he didnt want that image for himself. "I think sleep will make it go away. But thanks anyway."
