The Mafia Queen (Ateez Story)

10.

"Get up lazy!!" I heard a pound against my bedroom door with a yell. I wanted to strangle whoever wanted to be an ass on waking me up. It's a Saturday, I wanted to sleep in.

I groaned, getting up before they came back. I had stayed up late working on my project for science and talking to Leon on the phone.

Sleepily I made my way down stairs to where my family was gathering at the table. I rubbed my sleepy eyes before trying to sit down but a hand grabbed my arm making me startled awake.

"When was this done?" Daddy Seonghwa asked clenching his teeth.

I was confused as to what he was talking about but then it clicked. I forgot to change my shirt and unroll my sweatpants before coming down since I wore a really short crop top to bed and rolled my sweatpants so the band didn't irritate my fresh tattoo.

"Choi Jiwoo answer Seonghwa ." Dad San asked livid. I looked at all their faces to see they weren't happy with my bellybutton piercing and tattoo.

"Two days ago when my brothers pulled that prank on Leon." I answered in shame that I made them mad but honestly it was worth it.

"You couldn't have gone to Rowan parlor because he would have called us that you were there without our permission. So where did you go?"

"Jackpot." I muttered softly trying too look at the other direction.

"I'm sorry we didn't hear that?"

"Jackpot." I said more loudly that they all heard.

"You went to Zico's territory!!!" They all yelled at the same time. I winced, I knew they would have hated the answer I had given them. I didn't know I was in Zico's territory until he had came out from the back.

"I wasn't alone and I swear I didn't know it was Zico's place that Dayeon brought us too.

They all narrowed their eyes.

"Yikes baby sis, you messed up big time." One of my brothers said but received a slap on the head.

"You all weren't better. So keep your mouth shut."

"For now let's all eat breakfast as a family. Jiwoo you are in charge of dishes after breakfast. When you are done with that sit in the living room with your phone on the table."

"Yes sir." I sat down at the table. Among my brothers and dads they all talked about business while I had stayed quiet. One thing about me being in trouble is I have a hard time eating after feeling guilty of being in trouble when I don't want to cause it. If I do want too it's because my dads did something to annoy me so it's pay back.

I was pulled out of my thoughts when I felt a hand pet my head. I looked to see who it was. Daddy Yunho was giving me a smile of comfort even though I didn't deserve it but they all knew how I was when it came to getting in trouble.

With my brothers they are more rough with them but with me they tend to be on the softer side that still gets the point across.

When they all were done with breakfast, I started on the dishes. I stayed quiet when my oldest brother In joined started to help me. I didn't complain it takes a lot longer to do dishes that seventeen people used.

I was waiting patiently for my dads to come scold me. I had my phone on the table. Dad San and Dad Hongjoong came in. Dad Hongjoong had his phone up to his ear by the look on his face it seemed like someone was yelling on the other line of the call.

Dad Hongjoong glanced in my direction. "Yes, I'll make sure she gets the message. I love you bye." He said ending the call.

"Do you understand the risk you and your friends put yourself in? It was stupid to go into a territory of our enemy. There's a lot of possibilities that could have happened to you. We all love you Jiwoo and it would break us if something happened to you. Especially your mother. She's very disappointed in you for going into enemy territory. "

"It won't happen again, I'm sorry."

"It better not or we will lock you in your room." Dad San threatened.

"You're grounded for two months. No going out with friends, no friends over, no boyfriend over or going out with him. No phone, no tv, no comp—-"

"I actually need my computer for school."

"Fine we will compromise on that. But anything else is a no. And don't think you can beg your brothers into sneaking you out because we will know."

"Yes, I understand."

"Why didn't you ask us if you could get a tattoo or piercing?" Dad San asked since he had been quiet while dad Hongjoong listed the rules on being grounded.

"Because you all would have said no. I want to be cool like all of you dads and mom. I at least got something meaning to me."

Dad Hongjoong chuckled. "And that would be?"

"Starlight is the stars and the moon and Sunshine is the half sun over the moon."

They both looked at each other before turning back to me. "Next when you want something just ask and give us a reasonable reason as to why you want it."

"Okay." I said. Dad Hongjoong opened his arms for me. I didn't waste no time to accept his hug. He held me tight while Dad San joined in.

"We love you kid."

"I love you too."
