A Worried Family

• • • ┘

After a long day, The sun has already set and went to take a nap and the moon slowly rises, they both are now~ officially lost.

Though Helen knows his way around here, but he doesn't seem like he wanted to go.

“I am very sorry. . . but don't worry, I'll find our way back!” M/n says still fully determined, which Helen already gave up a few hours ago; the moment M/n introduced himself to Helen.

Right. . .

Helen paid no attention to what time it is, as if nothing matters to him; watching the older boy ask for directions, he looked at whoever goes near him on alert.

“I don't think this is the right way. . .” M/n mutters as he only let out a disappointed sigh and only walks back to Helen.

“Helen, do you know the way here?” M/n finally asks Helen ─ which Helen answered politely to him with a hint of caution, a sweat trickle down M/n's porcelain (s/c) face, which he didn't fought back and only followed Helen from beside.

Only some moments pass by as their parents were already worried.

They have arrived at their destination, exactly at 7:05 pm.

“Were back!” M/n says with his eyes sparkling with joy as he grabbed Helen's hands and immediately shake it as he thanked him several times.

Helen who sweat dropped at his antics, immediately remove his hands from the older boy; M/n was confused but as the same time didn't asked as he respected his privacy.

“Do you live nearby?” M/n questions the younger male; who nods.

“How far is it?” He asked another question, before Helen look up at the older boy.

“7 blocks...” Helen mutters which M/n nods as he heard him speak.

“I can walk you ther─” M/n was cutter off my Helen saying “I can go back by myself. . . no thanks.” which made M/n nods in understanding.

He looks at Helen's back as he walks further and further not being able to see him, he then decided to go back inside.

He was greeted by his siblings filled with worry, which quite startled him; he just opened the door and they both jumped on top of him.

“Brother!!” Emma tightly clutch onto M/n's clothes, Cameron bit his bottom lip as he tightly hold on to M/n's shirt.

M/n could definitely tell that his family was worried sick about him, he let out a sigh of relief that he returned home ─ sincere smile on his face.

“I was about to call the police for─” His Father says as he let out a sigh of relief as he hugged M/n.

“You mother and I, also your siblings are worried sick about you!” M/n was very happy at it, despite getting lost with someone who is two years younger than him.

Two years. . . Helen─

Did he return safely to his house?

Were his parents worried as well?

. . .Why am I thinking like this?─

Of course, Helen's family is worried for him.

“M/n you've returned!” Their mother says as she also hugged M/n tightly.

“M─mom, can't breathe!” Emma and Cameron both says making their mother retreat and put her both hands in the air and apologizes to her children.

“Besides, M/n why did you come home late?” Mother asked in a worried tone.

“I got lost. . .” M/n says as he let out a sigh.

“Do not worry, I'll make a map for you!” Their Father says with a confidence making Emma and Cameron both nod with sparkles in their eyes, a sweat drop only appeared of M/n's face and shake his head.

“You do not need to go that far Father, I can manage.” M/n says with a sincere smile.

“If you say so, I'll make Cameron and Emma a map then.” He says making Emma and Cameron nod.

[ Time Skip ]

M/n and his family finished eating their dinner and were now getting ready to sleep, Emma and Cameron are fighting over who will be the first one finish brushing their teeth.
   Their Mother and Father both washing the dishes, while M/n there clean up the table.

“M/n dear, I bought school supplies for you and your siblings.” Their mother says making M/n perk up, automatically nod.

“Do tell your siblings that as well and I have already enrolled you three, so you guys don't have to worry about that.” She added making M/n nod; understandingly.

“Alright, Good night Mother, Father.”

“Good night, M/n.”

“Good night, M/n dear.”
