"mummy, daddy you're back!"
a bright young haechan ran towards his
parents who had just returned from holiday.

"why are you still awake?"
his mother looked at her watch.

"my bedtime is nine mummy and it's only half eight" he giggled,

"well get to bed" she huffed as she put down her bags and headed towards the kitchen, specifically the alcohol cupboard.

"but mummy-"

"bed now!" she shouted not even turning round.

a tear feel down his small face as he slowly walked towards his bedroom.

"hey baby" he heard his dads soft voice,

"daddy?"

"we can catch up tomorrow eh? mummy's just tired and cranky" he tooth smiled to which haechan giggled cutely,

"i love you so much son, never forget that okay? no matter what happens" he pressed a soft kiss against his cheek.

"i love you too daddy" he smiled showing his missing teeth,

"hyunjae!" his mother pushed him off haechan,

"we'll talk about this in the kitchen, donghyuck bed now!" his dad gave him a sorry look as his mother shouted.

haechan then ran quickly into his room jumping into bed, crying softly into his pillow.

why did his mummy not love him?
what had he done wrong?
why was he not good enough?

these questions had ran through his mind ever since he was old enough to make sense of what was going on.

his crying was quickly drowned out by the shouting and screaming from his mother at his father who's voice was so quiet he couldn't hear it at all although his room was right above the kitchen.

"i'm done!" his mother shouted,

"i'm getting rid of him!" she screamed

only then did he hear his fathers voice protesting against whatever she was saying, but then it went silent till he heard heavy footsteps coming up the stairs and towards his room-


"haechan wake up!" he felt hands on his shoulders shaking him.

his eyes sprung open as he sat up breathing heavily, the room was dark but he could see a figure sitting on the bed next to him.

"are you okay?" the voice was soft and he immediately knew who it was,

"mark hyung?"

"yes i'm here you're okay now" he felt arms wrap around him,
"bad dream?"

"yeah, was i shouting?"

"no but you were crying" mark sighed,

"oh i'm sorry" hyuck whispered,
