PATROCLUS

"WU ZHEN YI !! 你這隻猴子在幹什麼?"

Ah shit.

IF there's one thing Patroclus would hate to hear in the morning, where the sunlight had barely shone through his white transparent curtains—

"Zhen Yi!! Wake up this instant!!"

That would be his father's voice ringing through out the entire family temple.

Don't get the wrong idea- Patroclus loves his father.

But sometimes the boy wished his father wasn't blessed with amazing vocal cords for him to yell like that every time Patroclus messes something up.

Patroclus' groans were muffled by his own pillow- in fear that his father might be near by to hear them.

There's only a few possible reasons why he was greeted like this. Especially if he was called with his full name.

Either he forgot some chores-

Got busted for eating up all the Tang Hulu-

Forgot another dreadful training session-

Got caught sneaking out with his brother to a party-


Or-

"EXPLAIN HOW YOU FAILED YOUR CHINESE LANGUAGE EXAM!!"


Oh.

Patroclus temporarily froze as he slowly sat up while still hugging his covers around him.

Oh shit.

He entirely forgot about thinking a plan to explain how he failed an exam on his first language.

Patroclus could only treasure the last split second of his life before his father rushed in—

With a slipper.

Patroclus bit his inner cheek.

Ah. The slipper. A classic choice.












Outside in the dining area where his brother- Wu Zhen Hao sat eating congee while reading.

The elder boy jumped and barely spit out his food when he heard his younger brother screaming and his father's scolding.

"爸!對不起!成績不好不是我錯—AHH!"

"HOW DO YOU FAIL CHINESE- IT IS YOUR FIRST LANGUAGE-!"


Let's say it lasted for a while.


A while later Patroclus sulked as he walked out of his bedroom with his father. Patroclus pouted when he noticed his brother's puffed up cheeks- it usually meant Zhen Hao was holding in laughter.
