After my heart warming talk with Stephanie, she excused herself to prepare lunch. I offered her help and she accepted but I went to Taeyeon's room first because I need to talk to her as well.

I miss my Tae.

Taeyeon let me in as I saw her sitting on her bed, she's holding a book but she's just staring not reading. She threw the book on side of the bed and looked at me.

"What's up?" She smiled at me.

I quickly walked to her and sat on her lap as I held her shoulders, she put her hands on my back to support me.

Without further ado, I kissed her feverishly. I missed her soft and sweet lips. I really wanted to taste it and now, that I'm eating her literally, I was devouring every second of this moment.

Her lips rhymed with mine, every move was perfectly fit and it gives more excitement in our sweet session.

I feel Taeyeon was missing this too as she obliged to kiss me as much as I do. Our passion molded together as it made great connection.

We both pulled back to breathe, we're gasping as we need air. I can feel Taeyeon's breathing in the crook of my neck. It gives me tingling sensation down in my stomach.

"I'm sorry for being narrow minded Tae, now I understand you. And for your good news... me and Stephanie arenow, friends." My breathing was back to normal.

"That's good to know Mi young, I'm happy to hear that from you," she said as her lips we're attached to my neck. It tickles me.

Then Taeyeon moved her body sideways and pushed me on the bed. She moved on top of me as I feel her body against me.

Oh gosh, it's tempting me to do something more. My parents trust me but Taeyeon is irresistible.

My heart was pumping wildly in my chest, as the heat was spread through my body.

Taeyeon smiled and pecked my lips then she moved up from me, leaving me dumbfounded.

"I know that you'll understand me Mi young, you always do."

I was still speechless. Ughh.

Then my phone vibrated, I pulled it from my pocket and saw Irene was calling me. I picked it up.

"Hello?"

"Mi young, meet me at our house. Now, it's important."

"Um, sure. Okay."

Then she hang up. 

I feel unease after, I had a bad feeling for this. Irene sounded serious and strict on the phone. It must be really important.

I immediately bid goodbyes to Taeyeon and Stephanie. I said I have to go home because Irene needs me.

After my short journey, I was now sitting here on the passenger seat of Irene's car that parked outside our house while she's on the driver's seat.

She looked stern and her face was unreadable, I'm starting to get worry about this.

"What is it Irene?" I need to know it, I feel that I need to know what's going on.

"We need to go to Mom's office," she shortly replied.

"Why?"

"We need to talk to her," she said as she put her seat belt on.

"But why?"

"You didn't notice it?" She irritably asked.

"What? What is it?" I frowned.

"Ma is in her room now, locking herself there. She's crying because Mom doesn't have time for her, for us! She barely go home because she's busy with her work! Ma don't deserve this! I'm hurt to see her like that! Every night, she wait for Mom and sometimes I saw her sleeping on the couch because Mom didn't go home! How could you not notice that? Ma is so sad, she's perfect mother and she don't deserve this kind of treatment! She didn't say anything but I feel it, she's really hurt," Irene ranted as she cried.

I was shocked with her revelation about our family. Yes, I didn't notice it because I'm busy with my own life.

I barely see Mom too but I didn't know that she doesn't have time to Ma anymore.

What's happening to my family? I thought we're fine and everything was perfect.

Damn you Mi young, there's no such perfect family. You're so dumb to think that your family will always be fine.

"We need to tell Mom about this, I hate her neglecting Ma. She's the center of the family, we're messed up when she's like this. She's the foundation of Ma Tiffany, how could she do this? I fucking hate her!" Irene angrily said.

I don't know what to say, this is new to me and it hurts to know that my family was facing this kind of problem.

Time.

We don't have time anymore, that's important to make the bond stronger.

I didn't notice that.

I talked to Ma yesterday but I didn't even notice her sad eyes. She's really good in hiding it to herself. She always care for us and try to understand us but we didn't realize her.

What about her? What about her feelings? What about what she likes? What about what she needs? I'm so stupid not to care and understand her.

Family supposed to care for each other, not just the parents. It must be both parents and their children.

I hate myself for being selfish.

Ma Tiffany don't deserve this.

Irene hastily wiped her tears "Put your seat belt on, we will go to Mom's office."
