The only sound inside the car was the hum of the radio while the boy and his mom pulled into their street...

"I know you are upset," his mom began. "You have this coming. You were walking around like everything is alright. Scolding you is futile-"

"Futile?"

"Expand your vocabulary. Plus, you have a phone for a reason."

Mark was looking at some fan edits of Donghyuck but quickly shut the phone down.

"Anyways, I doubt you would have listened to my protests so I just let you injure yourself further."

Mark leaned against the car chair further. It was enough that the doctor gave him a long lecture but now his mother?

At least she was scolding him in the car. Mark could remember multiple times where he was scolded in public by his parents in both English and Korean.

"I just wish I could play," Mark sighed. "I only walked on it a couple of times and that was in Korea."

"And who scolded you?"

"You and Donghyuck," Mark turned his head to look at his mom.

Man, he was going to get a lecture from Donghyuck too. 

"You were being quite the idiot thinking you can run around the apartment on Christmas with an injured knee."

"But Jinhyung-"

"There is your problem," Mrs. Lee hit the wheel which made Mark jump back. "You are following your idiot brother."

Mark was fighting the laugh in his throat while they pulled into the driveway. 

"I thought you said I should follow his example."

"You know exactly when to follow your brother," His mother got out of the car.

Mark sighed he opened the door as his mom came over to him with his crutches.

"I'm going out tonight, Ma. Jaehyun-Hyung is leaving tomorrow."

"He is?" Mark's mother helped her son hoist himself up. "He has only been here for two months."

"That's all the time he is allowed," Mark shrugged as the two walked over to the door.
