Eviction notice.

That was the first thing Jeno noticed as he stood in front of his apartment.

He went to the landlady's office.

"Ma'am, there is an eviction notice in front of my door."
" Yeah, so? You said you'd move out by the end of this month. It's over, get out already!"

" But there are still few days!" Jeno tried.

" I don't fucking care! Get out or I'll call the police." Lady snapped.

" You can't do that!"

" Oh, try me!" Lady picked her phone up.

Jeno began to sweat out, he got scared. " Please, give me few days." He pleaded

" Nah, I've given you plenty, you have to get lost by tonight. I want my room to free. New tenant is moving in tomorrow."

Jeno felt like his world was crumbling.

Jeno left the building and immediately went to see goshiwon's owner.

The room had been rented out as well since Jeno was unreachable.
Jeno panicked, he didn't know what to do. Should he tell his mates or not?

He'd have to tell them eventually.

But not now, he thought.

He didn't want to burden them.

He walked back to his apartment, tears gushed out of his eyes.
" You're dumb, so dumb, Jeno." He cried to himself. "You bring bad things to yourself. You're stupid." He mumbled.

He pinched his thighs in anger. He only had few hours to move out.

" I need to tell them, I should tell them. They are my mates, where will I go, if I don't ask for their help?" He whispered. He had no other option. He wiped his tears.

He clicked Renjun's number.

" Hello?"
" Hi, Renjun... what are you doing?" Jeno sniffled.
" Jeno? You crying! Are you alright?" Renjun's voice was filled with concern.
" N-oo..." Jeno admitted.
"Baby, what happened?"
...

"I'll come over, okay?" Renjun mumbled.

" Yes, please. Thank you!"

" Oh, baby. Don't cry I'll be there in few." After Renjun hung up the phone, Jeno opened the door again and tore off the eviction notice from the door.

He began to pack his clothes and gathered small things to just shove in the bag.

" Jeno, open the door!"

Jeno greeted the jaemin followed by Renjun.
" What happened baby? Are you alright? Did something happen? Are you hurt?-" Jeno was bombarded with millions of questions.

His lips trembled and then he clung onto Jaemin before breaking down once again.

" you're scaring me, Jeno. What is it? Speak up."

He handed the notice to omega, " You're being evicted?"

" Ye-sss..." jaemin rubbed circles on his back as his body shook from crying.
" Baby, shhh... we're here. Don't cry. Please, calm down." Jaemin cooed and sat down on the mattress. He pulled Jeno closer and made him sit on his lap.
" Get him a glass of water." Renjun got up to do that.
