I woke up to the sound of my phone ringing.

I sloppily get myself up and reach for my phone, almost falling off of my bed in the process.

"Hello." I greeted tiredly as I held the phone to my ear.

"Hello (Y/N)." Said the male voice. "I know we haven't seen each other in a while and you may not want to see me, but we need to talk."

This voice, it's my father.

"Sure." I agreed lazily.

"Really?" He replied, shocked.

"Sure, I'll hear you out."

"Thank you. It really means a lot." He said, sounding so sincere. "Meet me at (company building name)."

This is one of the many companies my father owned.

"Okay. Bye." I said before hanging up and heading towards my bathroom to get ready.

Once I was ready, I began walking to the walking which was luckily, only about 10 minutes away.

I entered the building and straight away, saw my father there by the entrance, waiting for me.

"Ah (Y/N)." He said before giving me a hug of which I didn't return. "Come, we'll talk in here." He then lead me into an empty room.

"Here." He said handing me an envelope, I opened it to reveal a load of money. "Use it for your mothers hospital bills. I won't be able to stay here long as I have work to do back in America, but know that I do care." He then began walking away.

"We don't want your money." I said, making him turn around. "I'm only accepting it for mom's sake."

He then smiled and exited the building leaving me here fuming.

"And here I thought he was actually here to stay, how stupid was I." I mumbled and grumbled to myself, looking downwards as I made my way out of the building, bumping into someone as I did so. This caused me to fall backwards on to my ass.

"Ow." I said as I got up and rubbed my hip. "Sorry about that. I wasn't looking where I was going."

"No I'm sorry. Is your hip okay." Said.... Baekhyun?

"Yeah I'm fine. Huh, Baekhyun? What are you doing here?" I asked.

"Oh its you (Y/N)." He said. "I work here by the way."

"Oh."

"Are you okay, you look angry." He laughed.

"That's because I am." I then adjusted my posture and stood straight. "It's my father."

"Woah woah hold on." He then grabbed my wrist and took me into an office where no people were and sat down, tapping the seat next to him for me to sit down, so I did. "Now speak.

"I see." Baekhyun said. "While I do think he should stay here with his family, I do understand why he went back to America. What really matters is that he's making the effort to help, even if it is only something small, though I wouldn't call 2 million won something small." He then laughed.

"Yeah, you're right." I smiled. "What are you doing?"

I turn my head to look at Baekhyun to see him folding up what looks like important office work into paper airplanes. He then threw one towards the trash can on the other side of the room and it landed mere centimetres away from it.

"Ahh. So close." He said ruffling his hair up before realising that I was looking at him.

"Here, you have a go." He then handed me a piece of paper.

"Are you sure it's okay to do this." I said as I folded the paper anyway.

"Yeah it's fine." He said before throwing another one which ended up hitting the ceiling before landing right in front of us, making us laugh.

"Nice shot." I said sarcastically before throwing mine which landed directly into the trash.

"Woooah." Baekhyun and I cheered before highfiving.

Baekhyun and I spend the next minute or two just laughing and enjoying each others company until I look up at the clock on the wall to see that it's already 1pm.

"Oh, I best get going, I'm gonna pay mom a visit." I said as I rose from my seat. "Thank you for today Baekhyun."

"No problem." He replied as, he too, rose from his chair. "I'll come with you, just wait for me by the exit while I get my stuff. Kay?"

"Um, okay." I answered before he left the room.

I then too left the room and walked towards the exit of the building, where I waited for no longer than 2 minutes before seeing Baekhyun's form approaching.

"Sorry for making you wait." He said as he adjusted his bag on his back before scratching the back of his head sheepishly.

"That's fine, let's go." We then made our way to the bus stop and caught the 1:30 bus to Seoul, where we visited my mother in hospital.

"Hey mom." I said as I opened the door to my mom's hospital room to reveal her lying in bed with a hospital gown and a book in her hand.

"Oh, (Y/N). Good afternoon." She smiled sweetly as she closed her book and placed it on her bedside table. "Oh? Who's this (Y/N)? Your boyfriend?"

"Boyfriend?" My voice cracked. "No he's-"

"I'm Baekhyun, it's a pleasure to meet you Mrs (L/N)." He said politely as he sh00k my mothers hand.

"Just (Mother's name (M/N)) is fine." She replied. "You really hit the jackpot here (Y/N), he's very polite, and handsome too!"

"MOM! Don't say things like that!" I exclaimed as I looked downwards as I felt my face turn bright red, I could have probably heard Baekhyun's laughs from a mile away. "Anyways mom, we're here not only because we wanted to see you but also because dad gave us the money for your hospital bills."

"Your father did?" My mother's eyes widened before she smiled to herself. "I guess he really hasn't changed all this time." She mumbled the last part.

"I should probably get going now, It was great to see you mom." I said as I gave her a kiss on the cheek.

"You too (Y/N)." She replied.

"Good bye (M/N)!" Baekhyun said happily as he waved to her on our way out.

Baekhyun and I made our way downstairs and before leaving the hospital I gave the money to the lady at the desk by the entrance.

"Hey Baekhyun." I started saying as we left the building.

"Hmm?" He hummed in responce.

"I've been meaning to ask. You know what you said about Kai the other day? What did you mean?"
