Unexpected Strays

Chapter 6

"Oh hey, when did you get home?" You asked since you didn't hear the door open
"I got in like a minute after you did. Where's Felix?" Jeongin asked since he knew Felix
was home with you.
"In his room, changing. Since he's still up there, do you want to help me set up the living
room for our movie?"
"Sure. It's just a bunch of blankets on the floor, right?" He asked, just wanting to be sure.
"Depends on how many people are sitting on the floor and how many people can fit on
the couch. Felix and I will be on the floor together. Not sure how many people will want to sit on the floor with us versus how many will sit on the couch." You said.
"I'll get the blankets, you should text the group chat to see who would want to sit on the
floor with you." Jeongin always had the best ideas when it came to problem-solving.
Hey, for the movie tonight, who is going on the couch? Felix and I are going to be on the floor, so please make your decisions now. From Y/n
I can sit on the 2 seater with Han if that's ok. From Hyunjin
That works for me. From Han
I'll be big spoon for whoever wants that spot. From Chan
Me! I will gladly take that spot. From Jeongin
I can sit on the floor with you guys. I don't mind the floor that much. From Minho
Minho, you're the best. One less person to fight over the couch with. Seungmin, Changbin, who's joining Felix, Minho, and I on the floor? From Y/n
I will, as long as I can sit in front of Hyunjin. From Changbin
Works with me. From Hyunjin
Perfect. When are you guys leaving to come here? From Y/n
In about 10 minutes. From Changbin
Ok, see you soon. From Y/n
"Hey, Felix." Felix had just walked out of his room and fell on top of you.
"Hm?"
"Hon, when was the last time you got a good night's sleep?" This question was going to
come out eventually, but now was a good time to ask, since he was tired and would say anything mostly truthfully
"Not for a while. I'm pretty sure it's been like 2 weeks since then."
"The boys will be home soon. If you want to, you can sleep right now, or fall asleep
during the movie, either way, they won't care, they want you to get a good night's sleep, ok?" You say as you start playing with his soft ginger hair.
Thank you, Y/n, you're truly one of the best people I know."
"You're welcome Lix, I try to be. Hey boys!" Noticing that the others had walked in, you
silently pointed to Felix who had his eyes closed on you, but you could tell that he wasn't asleep, giving everyone the silent message that they should keep the volume down to make sure that Felix slept enough for tomorrow
"Hey, Changbin, go put in the movie you chose, I need to talk to Y/n about something."
"Seungmin, I'm underneath someone right now. Lixie hon, can you get up please so that
way I can talk to Seungmin?" You tried to get him to wake up if he was even awake, but he just groaned and didn't move.
"Someone's going to have to take my place for a little bit."
"I can," Hyunjin said, already moving to be closer to you
"Thank you, Hyunjin," you said, and let Hyunjin take your place before walking into the
hallway with Seungmin
"What's up Seungmin? You seemed worried about something."
"I am worried about Felix. Did you ask him when the last time he got a good night sleep
was?" He asked, and you can see the worry swimming in his eyes.
"Yeah, I asked him, right before you guys came in, he said it had been like 2 weeks since
then. I'm going to try to get him to sleep during the movie tonight and that will hopefully allow him to catch up a little bit."
"Let me know if you need anything that you could use to help him, ok?" He asked,
starting to walk towards the living room.
"I will let you know if I need anything." Walking into the living room together, Hyunjin
asks you if he can move now that you were back
"You can go back on the couch Hyunjin. I can go back to my spot. Who's in charge of the
remote tonight." You asked as you slid back into your spot beneath Felix, who by now was asleep. Good for him.
"I am in charge of the remote tonight. Do I just hit play?" Han said.
"Yep, just hit play." Chan said, and the movie started to play

"What were you doing the night that sister was murdered? I heard from someone that it
was right before you moved away from here, 20 years ago." Ju-Won was basically yelling at Dong-Sik.
"I was busy working my night shift. Tell me again why I am here, in this room again?"
Ju-Won had brought Dong-Sik back into the interrogation room to re-interview him because there was no possible way that Dong-Sik didn't do it. There had to be something that was mistaken in the first questioning.
"Because I am suspecting you in the newest murder case."
"But you have said before that you had lived here 20 years ago, right when the murders
happened." Dong-Sik tried to retaliate, but Ju-Won had come up with an answer for that.
"I was 7 20 years ago. Why would a 7 year old commit a murder right before they
move?" That was a good explanation, but something else had come up during research.
"You have also said that you helped a lady who was wearing the same rings as the
corpse that was found. So shouldn't I be the one questioning you?" That was less explainable to Dong-Sik.
"Well, if you're saying that you don't believe me, why don't you try to find some
evidence against me." Dong-Sik took this as a challenge.
"Why were you the last person to talk to this lady and hand her a burner phone?"
"I was trying to get her to help with something for me that I couldn't do since I was on
duty."
"But you were the last person to see her alive. Do you know what happened to her after
you last saw her?"
"No."
