Renjun had been anxiously preparing for this day, knowing it marked a significant change in his and his mother's lives. Mei was finally moving into the safe house-a secure and comfortable place that would offer her the protection she needed. Renjun, along with Jeno and Jaemin, had worked hard to ensure the transition was as smooth as possible.

It was a crisp Saturday afternoon when they arrived at the safe house. Mei's belongings were neatly packed and ready for unpacking. Renjun felt a mixture of relief and nervous anticipation as he opened the door to welcome his mother into her new home.

"Mom, we're here," Renjun called out, his voice carrying a blend of excitement and reassurance.

Mei stepped out from the living room, her expression a mixture of apprehension and gratitude. "Hello, Renjun. It's good to see you."

Renjun was flanked by Jeno and Jaemin, who each carried items to help make Mei's new space feel more like home. He took a deep breath and turned to Mei. "I'd like you to meet Jeno and Jaemin. They've been incredibly supportive through all of this."

Jeno stepped forward with a warm smile, offering a hand. "Hi, Mrs. Mei. I'm Jeno. It's really nice to meet you."

Mei shook Jeno's hand, her smile softening. "Nice to meet you, Jeno. Thank you for everything you've done."

Jaemin followed suit, holding a dish of food. "Hello, Mrs. Mei. I'm Jaemin. We've brought some lunch. I hope you like it."

"Thank you, Jaemin," Mei said, her eyes reflecting her appreciation. "I'm looking forward to it."

They moved to the dining area, where they set up a simple but comforting meal. The conversation was casual and friendly as they began to eat. Jeno and Jaemin shared stories about their lives, their hobbies, and how they came to be such an important part of Renjun's life. Mei listened attentively, her initial nerves easing as she saw the genuine affection and support Jeno and Jaemin offered her son.

"It's clear why Renjun holds both of you in such high regard," Mei said, her voice tinged with warmth. "I'm glad to see how much you care for him."

Jeno smiled, looking at Renjun. "We're happy to be here. Renjun means a lot to us, and we're here for both of you."

Jaemin added, "We're all in this together. It's important to us that you feel comfortable and know that you're not alone."

The meal continued with light-hearted conversation and shared laughter. Mei began to open up more, sharing stories from her past and expressing her hopes for the future. Jeno and Jaemin listened with genuine interest, making Mei feel welcomed and valued.

As the visit drew to a close, Renjun felt a profound sense of satisfaction. The meeting had gone well, and his mother seemed to be embracing the new connections in her life. This introduction marked the beginning of a new chapter, one where their lives were intertwined by support, love, and understanding.

With the day coming to an end, Renjun, Jeno, and Jaemin prepared to head back to their apartment. They assured Mei that they would continue to be there for her, offering their support and friendship.

As they drove away from the safe house, Renjun reflected on the day. He felt a renewed sense of hope and contentment, knowing that his mother was in a safe place and that his relationship with Jeno and Jaemin had grown stronger through their shared experiences.

Back at their apartment, the trio settled in for a quiet evening. The sense of unity and commitment among them felt more solid than ever. Renjun was grateful for Jeno and Jaemin's unwavering support and looked forward to continuing their journey together, marked by love, security, and the strength of their bond.
