Yoongi advances on her, and coldly says again, "Tell me, what you want to leave us alone!"

"Keep your voice down baby."

"Don't call me that, I'm not your baby."

Little Agust peeks around the door way, his chin quivers as if he is about to cry. Yoongi frowns he didn't mean to be so loud.

"Come here Agust, its ok. Your daddy isn't mad at you." Little Agust runs to his mom and wraps his arms around her legs and looks at Yoongi with fear in his eyes.

"Eomma, don't hurt my eomma." his eyes fill with tears. She pats the top of his head.

"Don't be scared baby, your Appa would never hurt me. He loves me and he loves you too."

Yoongi closes his eyes and tilts his head back trying to calm himself down. He takes a deep breath and then kneels in front of Agust. He holds his arms open and little Agust runs into the embrace.

Yoongi picks him up, "I could never be mad at you." and he gives Agust a kiss on the cheek then sits him down. 

He looks at her, "We need to talk where no little ears can hear or a little heart can get hurt. Why would you even do this to him right now. You should have talked to me first."

"Because I knew you wouldn't have come."

"Tell me why the threats, you know you could go to jail for that and he," Yoongi looks at little Agust, "Wouldn't have his mom."

"Let me call my neighbor she will watch him for a little bit." She makes a call on her cell phone. "Mrs. Choi would you mind watching Agust for a little bit.  I have grown up talk to have with his Appa. Yes, I said Appa. Ok. thank you."

"She will be right over to get Agust." and sure enough there is a knock at the door. 

"Agust go get your kitty cat and go with Mrs. Choi." he runs to his room and comes back out with a plush cat. She opens the door for Mrs. Choi. 

"Hi my little meow meow." she says as he runs to give her a hug. She looks at Yoongi then at little Agust as confusion crosses her face. 

Before she can say anything Agust asks, "You have cookies?"

Yoongi faintly glares as he thinks, 'Damn she has gone all out on this ruse, he has a plush cat and the neighbor calls him meow meow.'

"Of course I do." She smiles at him then looks at Yoongi.

"This is Min Yoon Gi. Yoongi this is Mrs. Choi, she baby-sits for me."

Yoongi gives a polite little bow. "Hello."

Little Agust's mom places a hand on Mrs. Choi's shoulder and head them towards the door.

"Just give us an hour please and I will come get him when we're done." 

Mrs. Choi curiously looks at Yoongi then says, "Ok, that's fine."

 She looks at Agust, "Let's go have milk and cookies." He smiles and claps his hands as they leave and his mom closes the door.

"She is very good with him."

 Frowning Mrs. Choi is thinking to herself as she crosses the hall to her apartment, 'Agust doesn't look anything like that man.' she quietly sighs, 'oh my not another one.'

She opens the door to her apartment and Agust takes off running to the kitchen and climbs up on the stool at the counter. He turns and asks, "Can Sugar have a cookie too?" he pets his toy cat.

Mrs. Choi smiles, "Of course he can."

 She gets out two cookies and place one in front of Agust and one in front of Sugar. Then pours Agust a child's size cup of milk. She watches him take a bite of his cookie then holds Sugar's cookie up to the cat pretending he is taking a bite too. 

She smiles then begins wondering what is going on across the hall and her smiles fades away. 'This isn't the first man she's had over at her apartment that she had Agust call Appa. It's usually someone she takes up dating when she is desperate to pay the rent.'  

She looks at sweet little Agust, 'I hope one day he gets to meet his real Appa.' 

"Has your mom seen Mr. Rentman this week?" Agust calls the landlord 'rentman'.

He talks with his mouth full of cookie, "No, eomma says we go find other Mr. Rentman." He starts to drink his milk. 

Mrs. Choi looks towards the door. ' Another rent man, I know she doesn't have the money to move, she asked me for food money yesterday. . . .oh no, she's getting evicted!'
