Warning : Mentions of homophobia, violence & death

(A/N I wasn't ready for ep 14 lol. For some context let's pretend Porsche's mother is not alive & only Kim knows what's going on)

Macau barged into the room in his sweaty school uniform saying, "Father & Uncle Korn shot each other to death!!!"

They were shortly followed by a crying Tankhun with Porchay hugging him & a stoic Kim.

Kinn & Porsche were more horrified  seeing Vegas & Macau exchange smiles than feel sad about Korn passing away.

Vegas : I feel guilty to admit, but good riddance, I guess. When was the last time he treated us like sons & not a burden, Macau?

Macau : I know. We should be sad. But here we are.

Pete now held one of both Macau & Vegas' hands,"We don't have to justify our feelings. But accept them. Just like how we accepted each other despite it all, Vegas."

Vegas : What should we miss about him? How he constantly trashed us? How he called me a faggot for touching you? How he called Macau a pussy for wanting to treat gunshots instead of causing them?

Macau : Phi, you pretend like nothing happened. But I know you always protected me from dad's rage. I'd feel so guilty seeing you cover up for me. What happened to us? The 5 of used to play tag when I was in kindergarten 😔

Vegas : I always took up responsibility because I felt I owe my father. And I was scared he would come after Macau to get back at me. You were always be better than me Kinn. Now that I don't have any obligations, I resign.

Kinn : Vegas, you were extremely good at your tasks. I'm not always good either. I overthink, get emotional & act impulsively. Don't take such a hasty decision, let's talk once you recover.

Tankhun added while lightly sobbing,"You wouldn't have to harden yourself if I was capable enough, Kinn. You had to give up on your dreams midway & adapt to a life I was being raised to live."

Kinn (hugging Tankhun) : It's not anyone's fault, Phi. *Sigh* if only we hadn't created this major & minor family divide. We could have been a stronger team. We don't even have time to grieve Papa passing away.

Tankhun : The fact remains that Papa is gone. He didn't have to fake a death & make me mourn twice😭

Kim broke the flow."It's okay, Vegas, Macau. Our father wasn't any better either."
