Chapter 19

"I don't want to go," Opal sobbed. "You don't understand, Dad, it's so loud, and I hear everything."

He might not understand it personally, but in a way, he was more equipped than others. He's had to deal with Heli being overwhelmed many times over the years. "Baby, I promise I do understand. You can stay home today, and we can talk about what you want to do. Maybe Mom can help you?"

Opal scoffed, "Mom keeps saying I must learn to shut it out like she did. That's not helpful at all."

Yoongi sat down next to his daughter, who was crying her eyes out because the voices in her head were so loud. "Baby, I'm sorry."

"I know you are; I hear just how sorry you and Mom are all the time. But sorry doesn't fix this."

Yoongi nodded his head, 'I'll be right back. I want to try something.' He ran to his studio and grabbed some headphones and some music he'd been working on. They weren't songs that were going to be sent to anyone or made into actual songs, but the beats were loud and obnoxious, and he thought it might help. "Here, baby, try this."

Opal looked up as she sniffed a bit. " You want me to listen to your music? Isn't that like a narcissistic Dad?"

He rolled his eyes, "Look, it's music or me constantly whispering into your head like I do your mother. The only issue is where I can turn it off with her. You seem to hear it all, and it's like I'm screaming at you."

She groaned as she dropped her head into her hands, "I'll try anything to help because this is horrible. I learned that my teacher is cheating on her husband with the art teacher."

"Isn't the art teacher married as well?"

"She is, and they are freaky together because my teacher replayed the entire night they spent together this weekend. It was so gross; I'm all pro-love, but Dad, the things I've heard," her entire body shivered in disgust. "It was almost as bad as that fanfiction you wrote before you got big."

"Yeah, we agreed that we'd never discuss that. We had a deal. That was my one embarrassing thing, and now you use it against me," he said, placing his hand on his chest. "I'm hurt."

"Sorry," she mumbled, "but you were such a sap."

"Here," he gruffed as he put the headphones on his daughter, "see if this works, you menace. Just like your mother, I swear."

She lay on the couch and closed her eyes, and Yoongi could see the tension leaving her body. She can't hear the thoughts around her if she's focusing on music. "Looks like she's going to be all about the music now, just like her Dad."

He smiled as he turned around and looked at his wife. "She was in tears earlier because of how loud it was. I didn't know what else to do, but this seemed to work."

Heli wrapped her arms around him, "It's because I married a genius, and a sweet one at that. You really are the best."

They weren't sure if it would continue to work, but it did. If Opal could have at least one pair of headphones in, then she could drown out the voices in her head enough to focus on what she needed to do. It was a win in the Min household, for sure.

Yoongi crashed into the bedroom, looking half dead, as his face planted onto the mattress. Heli giggled a bit before setting her book down and straddling her husband's lower back so she could give him a massage. "Long day in the studio?"

He hummed a bit while groaning, "Yeah, oww, right there, please."

Heli smiled a bit as she worked at the knot in his shoulders. "Of course, my love. Now tell me, what has you so tense?"

"I think I've found the beat and frequency to help Opal best. Jimin caught it; he noticed that she could focus better on the songs with a lower register voice. So we made a beat, and he sang in his lower register, and I think it might work for her. If it does, we'll make a few more, so she has variety. Tae even offered to sing on some, too."

"They are the sweetest, like our kids have the greatest uncles they could ever ask for in those six."

He flipped over, making Heli straddle him where he wanted her. His large hands steadied her on her hips, "Yes, yes, can we not talk about my brothers when you are sitting on top of me looking so delicious?"

She rolled her eyes, "this coming from the guy that would watch me getting fucked by said brothers."

He sat up, their noses touching. "Coming from the guy who had to talk you through it; otherwise, you wouldn't get off. Yes, that's me."

Heli giggled as she wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him, "You are terrible and cocky, I swear."

His hips jutted up a bit, causing his hardening cock to brush against her, "yes, yes, so cocky. But you love said cock so it's okay."

She wanted to tease her husband so badly, but every time she tried, she ended up getting more than she could bargain for. But that doesn't stop her, not in the slightest. "I'd sure hope you had a cock. Otherwise, we'd have to give the kids a new last name," she huffed.

Yoongi rolled his eyes, "Baby, you can act like you aren't obsessed with my cock all you want. But we both know the truth." He grabbed the back of her hair and pulled a bit, making her neck stretch out, "You love my cock so much that all I have to do is slide it inside one of your little holes, and in seconds, I have you purring like a little kitten."
