"If you throw peas at me one more time, I will shove this spoon in your eye socket and gouge your eye out!" Sunoo smacked the table, glaring across it at Niki, who for once was actually quiet more out of shock than anything.
"Sunoo! We are not going to talk like that at the table. Apologize at once" Ji-an scolded, just as surprisd as everyone else.
"Why should I?" Sunoo wondered. Ji-an's face darkened.
"Because I told you to, now do it and then go to your room. If you cannot behave at the table, then you clearly need some alone time to think about your actions" Ji-an lectured.
"Because I told you so is not a good reason to listen to anyone" Sunoo muttered, challenging his sister's authority. Ji-an knew what he was doing too and she was going to put an end to it before it started.
"One" Ji-an kept eye contact with her brother. Sunoo scooted his chair back, already getting up.
"Alright, I'm sorry. And to Niki, even though he's a baby" Sunoo added, rolling his eyes as he walked off.
"I'm not a baby" Niki pouted.
"Yes you are" Heeseung, Jay, Jake, Sunghoon and Jungwon corrected him, overruling their baby brother. Niki grabbed his spoon and threw it as hard as he could at one of his brothers, hitting Jay in the eye.
"Lee Riki! That is unacceptable, go to the corner" Ji-an pointed to one of the conjoining corners, extremely close to her chair. Niki would have to go around her to get there and that was not something that he wanted to do.
"Now, little boy" She added, giving him no other choice. Niki got up slowly, making a wide arc around his sister's chair. Once he was in the corner, she reached over to him and smacked him lightly on the bottom. Niki squirmed a little but did not turn around.
"Are you okay, Jay? Let me see your eye" Ji-an gently moved Jay's hand away from his eye to reveal a small growing bruise right at the corner of his eye.
"Jake, go get your brother an icepack. And wrap it in a towel" Ji-an instructed. Jake got up, doing what she said.
"Should I go talk to Sunoo?" Sunghoon wondered, already standing up without receiving an answer.
"No, don't. I'll talk to him later" Ji-an knew what was going on. Sunoo was a sassy child, always had been. Once he got to his preteen years, she had expected it to get ten times worse.
"No offense, but it might mean more coming from one of us instead of the main disciplinarian and our parent plus sister for the past four years" Sunghoon argued. Ji-an was surprised at his brutal honesty but he was right. She was no longer just their sister, but also their mother and father all in one.
"Go on. But if he gets annoyed and starts being disrespectful, walk away and come get me. Or deal with it, you are his hyung. You have the right just as much as I do" Ji-an decided, sitting back down.
"Maybe, but I won't. I'll leave that to you" Sunghoon shook his head, going upstairs to talk to his closest, non-twin, brother. Ji-an listened closely for any sign of a fight breaking out and she was not surprised when that happened. Cleaning her dish up, she got up slowly and told the rest of her brothers to stay downstairs before she went upstairs.
"Sunghoon, downstairs now" Ji-an ordered, keeping her eyes on Sunoo.
"Yes ma'am" Sunghoon went quickly, feeling bad for his little brother.
"I want you to go sit at the table and not move. I'll be down to talk to you about listening to directions when they are given" Ji-an told him. Sunghoon nodded, now feeling bad for himself. He should have just left as soon as Sunoo started getting sassy.
"I want to be left alone. I told Sunghoon-hyung that but he doesn't seem to want to listen" Sunoo rolled his eyes.
"Well, that's fortunate for you. I'm sure you'll have plenty of time to be 'left alone' while you spend the next week in your room. Alone" Ji-an had no idea what she was doing so she was mostly just winging it along the way.
"What?! That's so unfair!" Sunoo stamped his foot in anger. Ji-an's eyebrows shut up to her hairline. Sunoo was beginning to remind her of the twins.
"It is completely fair. I still have half a mind to wash your mouth out for the remarks that you've been making the past few days so count yourself lucky that I'm still thinking about it" Ji-an crossed her arms. Sunoo glared at her, sticking his lips out into a pout.
"Drop the attitude, Lee Seonwoo" Ji-an warned. Sunoo was considering his options but he knew it would end badly for him if he didn't listen. So, he dropped the pout and seemed to deflate a little.
"Stand up" Ji-an knew what she was going to do. Sunoo knew that too and he hated it. Sunoo had no choice though so he got up, walking over to her. Ji-an turned him to the side.

"Now go apologize to your brothers" Ji-an pointed to the hallway. Sunoo passed her, his arms crossed once again. Ji-an swatted him and he gave her a side-eyed glare. Ji-an followed him down, making sure that he said sorry to Sunghoon and Niki. Once that was done, and all the siblings were gathered in the living room, Ji-an motioned Sunghoon over to her, making him sit down next to her. He curled up into her side, laying his head on her shoulder.
"Next time, listen when I tell you to do something and no more fighting with your brother" Ji-an leaned down to talk in his ear.
"I'm sorry" Sunghoon whispered back. Ji-an kissed his head and swatted him once, making Sunghoon jump. Everyone else pretended not to notice but they did. Sunoo felt a burst of shame so he scooted over to Sunghoon and laid down with his head on his brother's leg.
