Exo Next Door (Chap.1)

"Soonkyu! Either you go job hunting today or I'm throwing ya out!"

"Mmm...cup..cakes..."

"Lee Soonkyu! Do you hear me?! Yah!"

Mrs. Lee came stomping up the stairs towards the attic before busting open the door with an annoyed look.

"Oh, for goodness sake. You can't sleep all day like you usually do! Yah! Palli (hurry)!" She exclaimed but the body swamped under the covers still didn't make a sudden movement. Soonkyu snored loudly before turning over on her side, facing away from her mother.

Mrs. Lee let out a sigh before she cleared her throat, and shouted loudly, "It's official Lee Soonkyu! I'm kicking you out right now! Kaja (let's go)!"

Soonkyu rose up like the dead being called with small blinking eyes, disheveled hair and puffy lips. Her face was partially red, and her eyebrows were everywhere. "Huh? W-what?" She said, looking around before settling her eyes on her mother before smiling cheekily.

"Hi umma (mom). Uh...are you really kicking me out?" She asked, wiping her eyes, and looking back at her worriedly. Sometimes she wasn't sure when her mother was being serious or just playing.

"Aniya. Kaja. Come down and eat breakfast. However, you're going job hunting today so don't think you're going to be lazing around today." Her mother said with a firm smile before leaving her room.

Soonkyu fell back on her pillows, and let out a puff of air. She groaned, and put a pillow over her face. She wasn't feeling up to looking for a job but she did feel a little bad that her mother was paying all the bills by herself when she had a perfectly healthy daughter that could help out.

Soonkyu came down dressed in a thigh length black leather skirt, a long sleeved grey sweater with 'L O V E' written in the middle and some black and white converse to top it off. Her hair was up in a messy bun with loose strands hanging by her small pierced-to-the-brim ears.

As she sat down at the traditional asian table, she fixed her glasses, and looked at all the delicious food that was set out. She licked her lips, and rubbed her hands together. She took her chopsticks, and held a small bowl in one hand before going to grab some bacon. Her mother came past from the kitchen, and slapped her hand before sitting down herself. Soonkyu pouted, and remembered that they had to say grace before eating. Her younger brother came down the stairs, and sat down. He fixed his glasses also.

"I'm hungry so let's say grace quickly." He said, hearing his stomach growl warningly.

"Haha, alright. Take hands." Mrs. Lee said as her children and her grabbed one another's hand. They bowed their heads, said grace, and both Kibum and Soonkyu instantly dug in, barely giving their dear mother a chance at getting anything before the two began piling their plates sky-high.

"Yah. Kibum-pabo! Let umma get some too!" Soonkyu said, trying to overpower Kibum's chopsticks with hers as a single piece of bacon hung in between both chopsticks.

"Yah! She already has some you pabo! What about you, hippo! You have tons of bacon stacked on your plate! You shouldn't eat too much or you'll get pimples!" Kibum replied back with a short smirk before Soonkyu pulled the bacon away from him, stuffing it in her mouth with a scowl.

"So! Who's gonna care anyhow?" She said in a muffle as she chewed the bacon. Kibum shook his head.

"You're right. Nobody once you get disgusting pimples and warts all over." He said before stuffing some rice in his mouth.
