The meaning of the word family, according to the dictionary, was a group consisting of parents and children living together in a household. The definition was gender-neutral. However, society had other plans and used it as a method to enforce their narrow-minded views on citizens. Therefore, family became a group consisting of Alpha/Omega parents (or Alpha/Beta in some cases) and their children living together in a household. Was it morally correct? Was it justifiable? Absolutely not, it was pure discrimination against same-sex couples, but political figures enforced those views on their citizens to keep their power in place. Society was not fair, but citizens lived their lives to the fullest, in order to fulfill their dreams.

Six-year-old Jungkook was playing with his best friend, Jimin or Minnie as he called him in the sandbox located in the backyard of his house. His family consisted of his Alpha mother and Alpha father, and they were his world, the cause of his happiness. Yet, Jungkook and Jimin's parents had warned the two young boys to not disclose their family dynamics to anyone, even if they seemed like a trustworthy person. The two young pups weren't sure why or what would happen if they told anyone about Jungkook's parents, but as good and obedient children, they complied with their parents' commands.

"Kookie, look, I made a sandcastle!" Jimin excitingly said to him. However, Jungkook was upset because compared to his disfigured and flatten sandcastle, Jimin's was symmetrical, tall, and very detailed.

"Minnie, no fair! How were you able to make your castle so much better than mine?" Jungkook whined, puffing his cheeks and crossing his arms in anger. Jungkook wanted to make a pretty sandcastle so he could show it off to his parents; He wanted to see the warm smile on his Alpha mother's beautiful face and the proud look of his Alpha father masculine one.

"I can help you make one like mine if you want? So we can show it to our parents when they come to get us for dinner?"

"Really?!" Jungkook eagerly asked.

"Of course! Hand me the shovel; we'll make the bestest sandcastle in the whole wide world!"

"Yaay!" Jungkook squealed, getting up from the spot he was sitting on and walking towards Jimin, with a small blue shovel in one hand. He wanted to please his parents, so he was determined, with the help of Minnie, to make the best sandcastle in the universe.

Two hours passed, and Jungkook and Minnie created the most amazing sandcastle they had ever seen. It had two towers that were connected by a small bridge, and at the bottom, it had an empty room where they had placed small figures that represented their family. Jungkook felt proud of himself; he felt like he was a fantastic artist who made his parents happy with his creations.

"Kookie! Minnie! Time for dinner!" Jungkook's mother called out, and he knew it was time to show off his masterpiece.

"Ready?" Minnie asked him, and he nodded in agreement. Jungkook was ready to show off his hard work and for his parents to praise him, validating that he was a good boy.

Once they got to the door, Jungkook noticed that Minnie's parents and his Alpha father were talking about serious business as they all had displeased expressions and looked very stressed out, as well as the distressed Alpha scent that lingered in the air, but as a young child, Jungkook wasn't aware of the dangers of the world.

"Daddy! After dinner, I want to show you something amazing," he squealed in delight, as he approached his father with sparkles in his eyes.

"Of course, sweetheart. I can't wait for the surprise," his father said to him, patting his head. Jungkook was happy to receive so much love from his parents that he knew he was the luckiest boy in the world. He proceeded to sit down next to Minnie, who looked as excited as him for dinner to be over and show their parents the amazing sandcastles they had made. Jungkook loved his family, and he couldn't have asked for a better one.
