"Honey, here is your coffee."

"Thank you dear"

"It's been a long time since we had some quality time together.", she gave a sweet smile to her husband.

"Yes. I was too busy with my work. Sorry for that."

"It's okay. You are working hard for our family only. But we haven't spent time with our kids too."

"Don't speak about them. They are just ungrateful brats. It's all because of Y/N and Seokmin is also on her side now."

"Please stop it honey. It's not fair to swear them without knowing their side of the story."

"Ohh now you are also on their side, huh?", he gritted his teeth.

"Don't get angry dear. Please listen to me. I have been looking forward for the best time to discuss this with you."

"What's there to discuss? If you are going to talk about this, I will better leave the place."

"Honey, please... You wouldn't speak like this if you had seen the bruises on her abdomen. She is such a poor girl."

"Bruises? What do you mean? Are you talking about Y/N?"

Your mother narrates everything that happened to your father.

"Come on. Don't trust her blindly. What if she hurt herself and put all the blame on Taehee?"

"Are you serious? I couldn't believe you are still not trusting our daughter."

"Let's say it is true but why didn't Seokmin or Y/N didn't tell me about this? If they didn't do anything wrong, they could have just told me like Taehee did."

"Because we were not ready to listen. They also didn't tell me at the beginning. I came to know only a few days back. We blindly believed whatever Taehee told without considering the other side."

"It's not convincing to me. They managed to tell you, but not me? There is something wrong."

"No honey. Trust me. They didn't do anything wrong."

"Trust you? Do you have any PROOF for that? You betrayed me by talking to her without my permission. Do you want me to TRUST you after all these?"

That's when your mom understood the feeling of not being trusted by our loved ones.

"Do you need proof to trust me? Are you serious? I'm your wife."

"Yes. How can I trust you, when you blindly support that idiot? It's clear that she went out with boys, more specifically a night out. They didn't even tell us a word when they should have asked for permission to go. And above everything, she fought with Taehee for confronting her with PROOF."

He is shouting his lungs out at this point making the whole house vibrate with his thunder like voice.

"But what Taehee told was not the complete truth."

"Stop this. NOW. I can't put up with your stupid shit anymore. I'm leaving."

With that he left the place.

[...]

"I tried explaining to him. But he is not ready either to listen till the end or to trust me. He just assumes that everything he does is RIGHT. I don't know what to do Dokyeom-ahh."

"Don't worry mom. He will surely understand one day. Let's leave this topic for now. Do you know Y/N is assisting my friend in his project?"

"Yes. She told me. Is he a good guy?"

"Mom... She just assists him. What's the big deal? It's enough if he is smart and hardworking.", he laughed.

"But she will be working alone with him. Her safety is important, right?"

"Come on mom... He is my best friend. After all, they are working inside school. Nothing to worry about."

"Whatever. Take good care of her at school.", she sighed not able to talk anymore. Whatever she says, he will just end up making fun of that.

[...]

"My god... Why are you like this again? I swear to god, if you keep on being upset and zoning out while working, I don't know what I will do. But I will definitely make you regret."

"Leave it. You can't get it anyways."

"Come on Shua... I'm not a kid. I'm just two years younger to you. Just tell me."

"Shua??"

"You don't like it? Whatever! It's not important now. Answer my question."

"No. It's nice actually. No one called me that before."

"Okay SHUA. Now tell me."

He left out a huge sigh and started talking looking down at his fingers.

"You know my girlfriend right?"

"I know you have a girlfriend but I don't know her."

"Hmm... She suspects me of cheating on her."

"What? Why? Don't say it's because of ME."

"I wish... but YES she thinks that we are together behind her back. The reason I was dull last week is also the same."

"Did you explain her that we are just friends?"

"I did but she doesn't believe me."

"I'm sorry for making you go through this."

"No no it's not your mistake though. She always finds ways to commence an argument. Now I'm thinking of ways to convince her as usual."

"How about this...? You introduce me to her. If she gets to know me, her insecurities may drop."

"I don't think it will work."

"Come on. We shouldn't assume before trying."

"I know her better than you. She will never be convinced with something like this."

"Okay lets say we trash that idea. Do you have anything better?"

"No"

"Then what's the problem? We are trying that. End of discussion."
