"Dad, why didn't you discuss this with us first?" Yeonjun looked upset, knowing their parents made decisions without talking to them.

"Yeonjun-ah, we know it's not right to make a decision without asking you. We're sorry for that."

"And what about me? Don't tell me you've decided something for me too."

"Yeonjun-ah, I'm sorry, but you're right, son, we've decided something for you." Yeonjun's mom stopped, hesitating to continue. But she couldn't cover it up much longer. "I'm sorry son, you have to live with your dad abroad."

"What?? Why do I have to go back to dad?" Yeonjun screamed bitterly, not believing his mom sent him back to his dad.

"Listen to me first, I have no choice but to make this promise to your father before we part." Yeonjun's mom can't hold back her tears and she started crying. "I'm sorry Yeonjun-ah... But I promise it won't be long, and I will come with you, and I will bring you home when the time comes. It's all for your own good, son. Yeonjun's mom kept trying to explain and convince her son.

"For my good, If it's for my own good, you should at least ask me. Whether I agree or not."

"Yeonjun-ah please understand, it's also very difficult for us."

"Difficult? How can you say it's difficult for you, when you don't think about how we feel. You adult are so incomprehensible." Yeonjun then left the room and went back to his room furious. Followed by Soobin who also went back to his room.

Byeol and Taehyun are still in that room, they don't know what to say. When their parents have made their decision for them. What can they do?

Byeol then turned to Taehyun, but he turned his face right away. It's confusing Byeol with taehyun's attitude. "Taehyun, what's wrong? You've been quiet. What's up?"

"Byeol-ah, there's something I want to tell you about Taehyun." Heard her dad's voice Byeol turned back to Taehyun. And this time Taehyun didn't turn his face away and stare at Byeol with a sad look.

"Let me tell her, uncle hoseok. Byeol... my dad has signed me up for the exchange student program. Which means I'm going to be studying abroad for a while."

Byeol doesn't know how he felt then. First Soobin, then Yeonjun and Taehyun will also go away. She tried her best to contain her emotions and her tears.

"Woah congratulations Taehyun. It's good for your education." Byeol tried to smile and immediately excused herself to go back to her room, she couldn't hold back her tears. Even Taehyun who was tired decided to go back to his room.

Grandma who saw the sad face of her grandchildren, felt their parents were pushing them too hard. "You should give them time. You can't force them to accept it immediately."

"Later they'll know, too. They'd better know now than later. "Soobin's dad tried to explain to Grandma.

"Mom is right, we shouldn't push them too hard." Soobin's mom began to feel dubious.

"Eunbi-ah we've discussed this together, and it's all for their own good."

"But Yoongi hyung, don't we have any other choice?" I can't stand to see them sad." Byeol's dad was hurt to see the sadness in his child's face. He couldn't stand to see his wife still crying.

"We don't need to discuss it anymore. We've made up our decision and we need to get through. All you have to remember is that it's all to save them from harm." Soobin's dad uttered it firmly.

"I want you to promise me one thing, I already said this to Beomgyu's parents. If your plan doesn't work or even makes it worse for them. Then I'll take them all with me and take care of them. You must not disturb them again." Grandma made them promise her. Grandma was just trying to protect her grandchild and she would do anything.

"I just hope that what we're doing is right and everything's gonna be okay."
