"Thanks for helping me bring these to your room, Alex." The girl handed the boy a grateful smile as he performed most of the work over carrying the luggage. He nodded his response and came to a halt at the designated door, triggering a sudden slew of thoughts and wonders to play on her anticipations. 'I wonder what his room is like...I bet he has a bunch of animal toys or something, or something quite casual and cosy-' as she gambolled about with her ideas, Alex opened the door to allow the female's expectations to shatter as her eyes took in the scape before her. The entire area was devoid of any commodities and comforts that would usually be found in an average room. All that consisted of the small space was a bed and table, along with a single chair and carpet. (Y/n) scanned for any hidden objects that could decorate the area, but found her efforts fruitless. "Wow, you live very...modestly." She forced out the compliment.

"I'm sorry if it's not what you expected." The boy set the suitcases down in one empty corner, silently lamented over the female's disappointment.

"No no! I wasn't expecting anything...I'm just a bit surprised at how..." The girl trailed off from her main speech as she tried to find a flattering word to title the circumstance.

"Empty..." He finished for her and prepared to leave, while the female sent him a sympathetic look as a realisation hit her.

"Does your mother not allow you anything?" Alex simply shrugged at the theory.

"She doesn't like it when I spoil myself." With the simple answer, he exited the room, leaving the girl to look around the desolate and uncomfortable surroundings before shouts were heard just outside the doorframe.

"I ask you for a cup of tea and you bring me this boiling mess?! I nearly burned myself while drinking it you incompetent wretch!" (Y/n) glanced behind the edge of the frame to witness Alex receiving a ruthless scolding from his mother. The woman was waving around a steaming cup of, what (Y/n) assumed to be the tea she had mentioned, and glaring at the ashamed boy. "Were you trying to burn my tongue?!"

The boy gulped before tensing his shoulders at a cowering posture, "I'm really sorry mother...I'll make you another one." He reached out to take the hot cup before the woman retracted her hand back.

"No! You're not sorry until you realise what you almost caused." As she eyed the defeated male, a haughty smirk spread to her lips. "Let's see how you would take the heat." The woman lifted the cup until it was hovering directly over the boy's head, and the male reflexively became rigid as he realised what was coming his way.

(Y/n) stared in disbelief as the older female began tilting the cup to the side until the boiling liquid was just barely remaining in the mug, heart beats away from spilling the entire blistering contents all over the male with seemingly no remorse. "Stop it! Don't you dare spill that on him." The girl emerged from her hidden site and confronted the woman before she could execute her punishment.

The adult looked towards the girl in a dismissive manner and retracted the cup back, allowing the male slight relief. "Worm, you better move along with your own business before something happens to you." She gave the female a direct threat before turning back to her son.

"No! Just leave him alone, he's done enough." However, the older female shot her a sharp and venomous scowl before turning towards Alex with an expectant stare.

"Are you going to just let her talk to me like that?!" The boy quickly realised his mother's tone and implications. (Y/n) was left speechless at the woman's next statement as the adult pointed at her and glare up towards her child. "Discipline your little pet boy!" The male gulped as he looked over at the girl with an anguished gaze.

"M-mother please..." However, the woman glowered at him as a precursor to bite his tongue.

"Do you dare defy me?! Maybe you desire the same treatment as her." She grabbed his chin with an iron grip, digging her manicure into the male's skin, causing him to wince in pain and apprehension.
