Jaemin immediately ran over to his father grabbing the piece of paper then ran back upstairs closing his door.

The younger boy looked at his brother with a sad expression "Yeah but how would mom react? You know she is strict with grades." Taeyong smiled "I'm sure she changed Hyuckie, don't doubt yourself. Once you tell her I know she will be happy about it." Donghyuck smiled, hugging his older brother "Thanks Yongie."

Johnny nodded about to play the game until Ten appeared in the kitchen grabbing the piece of paper "I like your score Winter, It's way better than Johnny's back in high school." Winter smiled hugging her dad "Thanks, trying to study while dad is yelling at the game was hard. But I got a good score." Johnny glared at his husband "I put good effort into my exam."

Winter smiled at her parents hugging them both "Thank you!"

He said to himself, he threw the piece of paper in the trash going back to his room to continue to play the game.
