"Hey, I wanted to say that I'm sorry for not telling you anything but you must know that the situation was personal. If that is what you are still upset about"

Baekhyun sighs and looks me in the eye,"That's not why. I'm upset because saying that I would over changed my view on you. I am seriously that cruel to you?"

Then I understand. He was angry that I thought of him of like the way I was.

"I am so sorry. I didn't mean it that way. I was just afraid that you wouldn't want to be with me anymore. Because my family is so....you know"

He makes me look at him which makes me feel embarrassed.

"Demented. And broken. And if I will become like my parents."

Baekhyun leans closer and gives me a strong stare.

"I am not worried. Because I know you won't become that. Your family isn't demented. Broken maybe." I smile, "It's just separated after an incident. An incident that was not your fault." Baekhyun insists

I shake my head,"You don't know what happened. And I won't tell you. Next time" I wink teasingly

A smile finds his way onto his face. I grab his arm.

"Where have you two been? It's time for dinner." Aunt hurried us over and sat us down.

I sat beside Kai and Baekhyun while Aunt, Uncle and April sat opposite us.

"I haven't got ask how you are" I look at my Aunt and Uncle.

"Well, of course we have been well. Kai was thrilled to find you at school. So was April, she wanted to practical hunt you down and pounce." Aunt explained with laughter

My Uncle nodded,"Yeah, you should have visited sooner. We waited day and night for your arrival. We were worried about how you were"

"I honestly am fine. No need to worry. I can take of myself; I'm a big girl" I downed my food.

April raised her hand high,"So am I! I can go wherever Yuni unnie goes"

"Don't think so, kiddo. Your only 5" Kai ruffles her hair.

April and I say simultaneously,"And a half"

The table shakes with laughter. I don't believe someone should discount another because of their age. Especially someone like April.

"Anyway, Yuni honey, you can come to is whenever or whatever you want. Okay?"

I nod gratefully,"Thank you. But it would be selfish to depend on you so much."

My aunt took my hands in hers. Her were passionate and caring. Her smile was tentative.

"Yuni, I mean it. For as long as we all can remember, you were always so independent. Not that it is bad but who did you go to for advice, injuries or love?"

She squeezed my hands that I had to squeeze back because she was so right.

"I didn't really beed anyone but myself. I can comfort myself and love." I had to stop. My voice was getting choked up.

"No, you will always need someone to care an love you. What happened to your mother was unfair and we were all washed over with grief. Especially you. You needed someone to hang onto. Someone to hold you up. Someone you could lean on."

I pressed my lips together and stared down at my plate. I squeezed her hand though.

I started when I steadied my voice"I know. But-"

"Yuni, no it is not okay." My uncle stepped in,"Your father...we all know his reasons but the way he treats you is just no acceptable. The way he drinks all day everyday."

Tears were threatening to slip. It blurred my vision.

"The way he threw you out for his own selfish reasons."

As I blinked, a tear fell onto my plate. I felt Baekhyun's hand on my arm. I try to stifle a sniff but I guess it didn't work. More tears flooded out my eyes slowly.

"And the way he never loved you after your mother died. It isn't reasonable. It isn't love. Give us, your family, a chance to love you. And a chance for you to love a family. We know we wouldn't replace your parents."

I looked up and scanned the table. Kai was tearing up as well but hid it well. He smiled at me. April was crying but not wailing. Baekhyun supported me beside me. He smiled supportively.

"Thank you. All of you." I say. I swallow to get rid of the lump in my throat but there was no getting it out.

"Just know that we are there. You even have an addition to your family." She gestured to Baekhyun.

Baekhyun pulled to his side and I leaned my head on his shoulder. I smiled even though I am teary.
I tell them how grateful I am and thank them for everything.

I stood and walked to April,"Don't cry. I'm okay."

I wiped her tears as her tiny fingers wrapped around my hand,"Don't you cry anymore, unnie. Because it will make me sad. Then I will be angry that you cried."

I laughed weakly and sat in my seat. With my new family.

"You sure? Because I can stay with you a while."

Baekhyun grips my hand. I smile but he doesn't smile back.

"I'm serious, Taeyeon. If you get hurt in there you have to immediately come to me."

I nod. At least he isn't angry ate because he uses the name.

"Thank you. Anyway, you should get going" I embraced him and he clutches me.

"It'll be okay, oppa. Go" He smiles and nods.

I take reluctant steps towards my door. And when I do, I know it was a mistake.
A high pitched scream comes out of my mouth. I just stood there.

And screamed.
