"We'll be back next week, alright Tae? The staff will take care of you, I promise."
"How come you always stay for only one day?"
This was something that 13 year old Taehyun would go through everyday. His parents ran a very successful entertainment company, KKT Entertainment. With audition season rolling around, and the company needing new trainees, they would be going on trips a lot more often.
Sure, it's not like they stayed with him that king without them having to travel all over the world for auditions. Even without the auditions, they would always stay home for no more than 2 days.
"Well Tae, we're very busy people, I thought you understood that. This trip has to do with a very important meeting as well. But like I said, we'll be back next week." His mother said before walking out the door, no more being said. Not even a goodbye. No "I love you." Nothing
'Is a stupid meeting more important than your own son?'
"Don't worry Mr. Kang," said one of the maids, Ms. Lee, "You know I'm always here to take care of you."
"That's the problem.." Taehyun mumbled.
"Huh? Did I do something wrong?"
"No, it's nothing wrong with you. Matter of fact, I love you Ms. Lee!" Taehyun said with a smile, "The problem is that all of the things you've done for me should've been my parents. You always take me to school, you always make my meals, you always took me to friend activities, your name was one of my first words!"
Taehyun's smile soon turned into a frown, "Sarom Lee was the first thing I ever said on this Earth. It disappoints me that everything you've done for me should've been my parents' job."
"That's understandable," Ms. Lee gave the young boy a tight hug and he cried in her shoulder, making her dress wet, "I know how painful that must be, but just know that I will still always be here for you. If you need any sort of parental figure, I'm here!"
Taehyun nodded and smiled, "Thank you Ms. Lee."
"Now, the Han family is coming over for lunch, I think you should go start getting ready!"
"Alright!"
Taehyun ran up to his room and Ms. Lee watched, a smile spread across her face.

"You're firing Ms. Lee..?"
15 year old Taehyun was standing in front of the desk in his dad's office. His dad with a bunch of documents and files on his desk.
"Yes, that is that decision we have come to."
"But why?! She didn't do anything! Why are you firing her?!"
"Violation of contract, Tae."
"What violation?"
Taehyun had too many emotions going through him all at once. Anger, sadness, anxiety, loneliness. It was too much to handle for him.
"Well Tae, as you know we aren't allowed to have people work under us if they are cursed."
"What- because she punched someone?! SHE WAS SAVING MY LIFE! I WOULD'VE BEEN KIDNAPPED IF IT WEREN'T FOR HER!"
"THAT'S BESIDE THE POINT KANG TAEHYUN!"
The loud booming of his fathers desk, the papers falling, the loud banging sensation from the desk being hit too hard, the full deadname. It was safe to say that his father is pissed off.
"Saved your life? I don't give a shit. The whole point is that she violated the contract and now has to go."
"A minor violation of contract is more important than your OWN FUCKING SON? Who else will take care of me when you decided to leave me for months on end?!"
"We have other staff members, Taehyun."
"NONE OF THEM ARE LIKE MS. LEE! SHE WAS THE ONLY PARENTAL FIGURE I HAD!"
"I AM YOUR PARENTAL FIGURE."
"NO YOU'RE NOT! YOU WERE NEVER THERE FOR ME, YOU HAVE NEVER EVEN UTTERED THE WORDS "I LOVE YOU" TO ME. YOUR STUPID BUSINESS IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN YOUR OWN SON?!" Taehyun yelled back at his father, tears streaming down his eyes.
"You are not my parental figure. You're anything but."
Silence spread throughout the room. All that could be heard were the sniffles coming from Taehyun.
"Get the hell out of my house."
"Huh?"
"GET THE HELL OUT OF MY HOUSE!"
Mr. Kang banged in his desk again in anger, this time even harder. Taehyun just rolled his eyes and walked out the door.
"Fine then, it's not like this place was ever a home."
Taehyun walked out the house and the tears started flowing down. As soon as he was out of sight of the house, the tears that were once subtle turned into sobs. What did he have to call home at that point?
Who else would've been there that would actually care for him?
