"Good morning" Baekhyun greeted his family, before making his way over to the couch.

"Good morning sweety, come here and have your breakfast!" His mom yelled from the kitchen.

He sighed. "Mom, i'm not hungry. When i'm hungry, i'll eat something." He said, as he watched his mom walk over to wear he's sitting, her left eyebrow raised in annoyance.

"That's the problem, Baekhyun. You're never hungry." She said, sighing.

He looked at his feet, not knowing what to say. "Mom.. i just.. please don't force me to eat. I'm really not hungry now!"

"Get up, go to your room. I need to talk to you for a minute."

The petite boy sat on his bed, feeling a wave of fear and confusion take over his body and make his stomach clench.

He couldn't help but wonder. His mom never speaks to him in private. Is this a very important thing?

As he heard his mother opening the door, and locking it after entering, he felt so nervous.

She sat on the spot next to Baekhyun, and sighed, looking infront of her.

"I want to talk to you, and you have to be honest with me." She started, and her son hesitantly nodded. "Do you, by any chance, have some conflits or problems that bother you?"

"No, why would i have problems?" Baekhyun said, laughing nervously.
'If only you knew, mom..'

"Baekhyun." She said, glaring.

The said midget sighed, before staring at the wall in front of him.
'Should i tell her or not? Will she be disappointed? Will she judge me too?'

And Mrs.Byun, as if reading her son's mind said,
"You know, you can tell me anything. And when i say anything, i mean it. I will not judge you nor punish you. Just trust me son." She finished, her eyes turning slightly glassy.

"Okay.." he took a deep breath, before continuing, "i-i.. i kind of have mental health problems.."

"Mental problems? As in what?" The mother questioned in concern.

"Well.. i'm not sure since i never checked a therapist, but i think i have social anxiety, depression, along with.. anorexia.."

The smaller was startled when he felt hands around him, pulling him to a tight hug, but what scared him, was his mother's sobs.

"How did you get all of these?! I mean you have friends, you're a good student and you seem to be happy! What made you like this?"

"I was.. kind of bullied..and.." Baekhyun stopped, hesitating if he should tell his mom about his love past.

He gave up, feeling the urge to spill everything in his heart, as well as his eyes.
