Mi-Rae's pov

I was running back home, trying to avoid Daniel who I left back at the park. I don't want to see him right now, I'm furious with his behavior but also really sad, he never talked like that to me, with every word he was insulting me.

I got inside my house and closed the door furiously, I sat down in front of the door and sobbed my frustration out.

"Mi-Rae you're back?" shit! Why is she here? She was supposed to be at Hana's competition.

I got up and faced the other way, I don't want her to see me like this.

"Mi-Rae?"

"Hi mum! What are you doing here, I thought you were at Hana's dance..." I was still facing the door and my tears wouldn't stop streaming. I can feel my mum's confusion at my back.

"We got back...Hana won and decided to come home to celebrate..." So that means that uncle Jungkook, aunt Lisa and Hana are here and maybe dad too!

"Honey...are you okay?" I can sense the concern on mum's voice.

"Ye-ah I a-am..." My voice is breaking and more tear threat to fall for my eyes.

"Then face me..." She made steps closer to me and put her hand on my back caressing it.

"What's going on?" Dad appeared from the living room and stepped closer to me and mum. I was still facing the door and didn't let them see me.

"Mi-Rae is everything okay?" Dad stepped infront of me.

I put my head down to avoid his gaze but some sobs escape from me. They faced each other with concern and dad lift my head with his hands, forcing me to face him.

"What happened sweety? You know you can talk to us..." Dad said calmly while brushing away my tears and mum caressing my back to console me.

"I had a fight w-with Da-niel oppa..." I told them while crying silently.

They looked each other shocked, my fights with Daniel were always silly, we were making up in a couple of minutes. This is the first time that I cried due to an argument with him.

"Why did you fight? You two never fight like that..." mum said and hug me close to her.

"Well...for everything there is a first time." I chuckled bitterly and close my eyes feeling my mother's warmth that always makes me comfortable.

I have a really good relationship with my parents, I never hide something from them and they always comfort me when I need it.

I know, it's strange for a teenager to be so close with their parents but they are always supporting me and giving me space when I need it.

"Noona? Are you ok?" my little brother asked when he saw us while he was coming down from stairs.

"Yes Liam, don't worry." I said to him without facing him.

He came closer to me, "no you're not, you're crying!!" he said loudly.

"she's just little sad...don't worry." Dad said to him and smiled to assured him.

Although, Liam gonna be 12 this year and like every little brother before starts puberty should annoying their older sister.

He is different...he likes to annoy me but whenever I'm sad, he is always next to me. Like my mum said he is indeed a little version of my dad.

"I'm not 5 anymore to believe that...she's obviously upset and SHE WAS CRYING!" he couldn't yell any louder.

Well...a little version of our father with a voice which made everyone to come from living room to door.
