namjoons brother arrived just as he was putting the girls to sleep.

they never gave him any trouble during bedtime. he would read them a story, tuck them in, kiss their heads and turn off the lights but making sure to keep a nightlight on since seoyeon was still afraid of the dark.

"hey namjoon.. thank you for everything man. you're a real one." his brother said and gave him a tight hug.

"it's nothing i love them." he said and gave him a little smile.

"strange.. since you hate kids so much."

"yeah but they're different. i raised them right. i showed them right from wrong and taught them how to act like civilized young ladies, not some preschool ruffians." namjoon claimed as he crossed his arms.

his brother laughed and nodded. "yes of course i'm sorry, child expert."

namjoon rolled his eyes and sat down.

"where's your wife? isn't she supposed to be back by now?"

"ah.. that's what i thought too. maybe she had to fill in for someone or something. i sent her a text not too long ago."

"i'm sure she's fine. she's a kind person, she's probably just busy." namjoon reassured.

"yeah.. anyways i'm beat. i'm going to take a shower and hit the bed. night." he said as he walked off.

as much as he didn't want to believe it or even say it, namjoon knew something was up with his brother and his wife.

they were usually a tightly knitted family, they often took weekends off together to travel with the girls but lately that wasn't the case.

the house was always dead silent and empty, only warmed up and brightened by the little girls that resided and played dress up with their uncle there.

the couple would go weeks without seeing each other or talking but namjoon knew very well to stay out of it since it wasn't his business to interfere in.
