I had already emptied my pack of gummy bears within the first half hour and I only sipped from time to time on the green bottle, which stood dangerously with the edge on one of the blankets and was about to topple over.

However, my sleepy me hardly noticed. The little bit of alcohol made my eyes so incredibly heavy Even if I tried everything to stay awake, my head kept falling to the side of Heeseung's arm, which made me wince over and over again.

He shifted carefully below me and adjusted us into a bit more lying position. With a satisfied hum, he pulled the blanket further and made sure we were both completely wrapped in it.

„I'm sorry...I got so tired.", My voice escaped my mouth only partially and barely audible.

„Don't push yourself to stay awake.", he answered lowly and his hand carefully wrapped around my waist from behind.

„Should I turn off the movie?".

„You can...you can keep watching...", I was babbling to myself, not even noticing he had already removed the laptop from my legs.

His finger gently stroked my cheek. „I prefer watching you fall asleep.". A smile flitted across my face as my body warmed up to his words.

„Why are you leaving now? You're not here five minutes! I've cooked, cleaned the whole house and waited all day for you to finally come home.", mom was clearly upset. „...If you ever show up! what about the kids? They miss their father and all you think about is...this stupid gamble!".

„DONT FUCKING YELL AT ME, JUNSEO! How do you even dare?! I'm working the whole day to finance your life to buy your goddamn food and that's how you deal with me?"

„Don't curse in front of the kids!", she worriedly glared over at me, sitting on the floor in the living room, playing with my dolls.

„If you weren't so damn lazy, you'd go to work, too. You can burn your fake sick note".

She was speechless, couldn't believe the words her husband found.

"Anyway...I'm going to the casino now. I'm not coming home today. Not for the next week. So don't wait for me to show up again and feed you through the winter! What did you study for? Go to the hospital and do your fucking job, you lazy piece of shit!".

She slapped him.

She slapped him so hard that he staggered backward, holding his glowing red cheek.

I didn't understand what was happening. So I just sat it the corner and observed the whole thing.

„Did you just...?!", dad growled and mom took a step back, shocked about the fact she just slapped her husband.

„YOU FUCKING BITCH DOESN'T KNOW WHEN IT'S ENOUGH!",

He began to attack her. Hit her several times until she was about to go down to the floor.

„Mommy noo!!", I whined. Grabbing my stuffed teddy and stumbled forward to stop him. But Sunghoon walked over from the side. "Hyeona, don't. Daddy has been drinking again.".

He wrapped his arm around me and my tiny tears dropped onto his shirt. "But he is hurting mommy.". I cried. But he led me out of the living room, without a word.
