Taehyung walked over to his dressing room and opened the door to see batches of roses surrounding the mirrors and every little spot on a desk. Taehyung tilted his head as he walked up to the roses and gift bags to see that most of these were from his fans who found the next movie he will act in and even a few people in the crew for the film gifted the beta many roses. Taehyung walked by each and every gift and only then, one small rose stood out with a card. Nothing too extravagant and it was only a simple thing. The beta stopped walking and approached the rose to see that this particular gift was from Hoseok. He expected the alpha to bring in something big, but all he was worth was nothing but a simple rose. Showing that the alpha alone stopped chasing after the beta.

             “And so the alpha stopped chasing the beta…” Taehyung said to himself and picked the rose up to gaze at the small note on it. “Such a pleasure to have you on my team, Mr. Kim. Here's a rose as a welcome gift. -Hope.” Taehyung read the note and smiled to himself. “I guess I don't have to worry about it anymore. He seems more happier this way. Tomorrow is his birthday… Should I give him something- Ah! We aren't as close as we used to be…” The beta thought and pulled up his seat to gaze at his own reflection and hold the rose while gazing at the door through the glass mirror. Just wondering if Hoseok would ever step in to greet him with another smile… But the younger took it all for granted. He wasn't going to get the treatment he did before when Hoseok treated the younger well because of how close they were. Things were different now.

            Taehyung reminisced back at the time when he was filming the last movie he shot with Hoseok years back. It was when he had to act with Hoseok's lovely sister and that was when Hoseok moved in closer that day… Almost asking for a kiss from the taken beta at the time. The younger shivered at the thought and hugged himself right after and only wondered if Hoseok had any plans on trying to get him back. Apparently, this was as real as the director could get. It was just too difficult to find that Hoseok was able to drop the younger so suddenly and the beta just knew he wasn't going to drop his guard.

            Eventually, the beta had to change into a white sweater, black loose jeans, blue denim jacket over the top, and comfortable white shoes after. The beta carried a saxophone in his hands as he walked out to meet at the spot Hoseok told the actors to meet up for this very first scene. However, once Taehyung met eyes with the one that plays the general, he noticed that the man alone looked very much like Hoseok! It was like the director was choosing someone who looked just like him to fill in for him since he was only the director. But, Taehyung knew it. The beta carried the saxophone in his hands and walked to the center while the other actor stood there with his hands in his pocket and waited for Hoseok's guidance. The alpha looked just like the director, but he had more eyebrows and his skin was more tanned too. Overall, just by a quick glance was enough to confuse the actor as the director. He had the looks but, never the smile. The smile alone was Hoseok's signature.

           “Alright! Gather around! This is our first day on set, so glad to have each and every one of you. Today's agenda is the first scene to take care of and later on, we'll shoot the first erotic scene.” Hoseok said and carried the megaphone attached to the belt holes of his jeans. “If there's any questions, anything you are uncomfortable with, handle all issues and concerns with the producers and if you need to ask me for anything, let me know.” The alpha then made a smile and placed his hands on his hips. “First scene will-”

          “Hoseok..” Taehyung called out as the alpha flinched and stepped up to Taehyung to gaze down at the ground and tilt his head in to hear the beta in case he had anything private to speak to him about. “I… Never mind.” Taehyung cut himself off. In reality, he was nervous to shoot the erotic scene… on the other hand, mentioning this to Hoseok now would only push the production back and put him to blame.

           Hoseok knew Taehyung was bothered about something, he wanted to ask but he knew he wasn't so close to know anything personal, so he grew silent and nodded his head after. “Let's get to the first scene! PLACES, PEOPLE!” Hoseok shouted into the megaphone and made the people around him flinch while the beta grew silent and feel nervous. He had no connection with the new actor that played the general and it was rare for him to shoot an erotic scene since he needed to trust the person he was to act with or else, he'd look forced in the scene. Taehyung placed his hand over the saxophone he was given and remembered that a while back, he used to tell Hoseok how much he loved to play the instrument long before.

           Inside Taehyung's head, he wasn't ready to shoot the erotic scene for the first day and bit his lip in a little tense burning within due to the scene up ahead. He grew insecure about doing it in front of some stranger as his co-star. In fact, he knew no one on the crew but just Hoseok. Before, he would be given time to get used to the other actor so there would at least be chemistry between them and contact. Yet, all he had was nothing but an awkward feeling when it came to thinking that the other actor had to see him exposed. Of course, that actor was nothing but a stranger to him.

          At the moment, Jimin was still at home. He made breakfast for the pup by ordering ingredients and cooked fluffy and warm breads of pancakes covered by a room temperature syrup and cold butter that was placed over the hot surface of the hot pancake. Minho missed days like these where he watched his father cook and serve him after. Normally, the pup would eat breakfast with Jungkook most of the time and not eat home cooked pancakes; the type Jimin would make out of love. The pup sat happily on his high chair and hummed while he was eating. Jimin then, limped over to the stool right by his son and sat down to pull a big smile.

         “Daddy is in pain…” Minho added with a pout as Jimin wiped the syrup off his pup's chin. “Will Daddy be okay?”

         “Of course Daddy is okay. Daddy was just… working out too much yesterday night and that made daddy's stomach hurt!” Jimin stretched his lie as Minho couldn't help but to agree even if it didn't make sense, he couldn't really tell what made sense and what not since he was only three and believed everything his father told him.

        “Please take it easy, Daddy… Minho doesn't want Daddy hurt…” The pup added while Jimin only giggled looking back at such a hot night. Of course, he remembered to take the pills to avoid having another pup, but he still looked back at such a night and wondered if Minho really did want another sibling. “Hey, Min-Min…” Jimin called out to the pup as Minho looked up with a smile on his face; still stuffing his face with the sweet and fluffy pancakes too.

          “Hm?”

         “Minho… Would you like a little brother or a little sister?” Jimin asked as the pup grew silent and smiled after to show his cute little fangs.

         “Minho can have more?!” The pup asked as Jimin's eyes widened. “Minho wants so much more! Minho wants many brothers and sisters!” The pup continued as Jimin started to laugh and shake his head.

         “Only one for now. So, I'm taking this as a yes?” Jimin asked to assure while the pup giggled and nodded his head happily.

          “Minho wants to go buy little brother or sister!” Minho added as Jimin kept laughing and shaking his head. In Minho's mind, he thought baby pups were bought from the stores since he would pass by and see people walking out of a store with pups in their arms. “How much?! Minho has wons!” The pup added and digged into his own pocket to take out a ₩50,000 bill to wave it around happily.

           “Jeon Minho! Where did you get that?” Jimin asked as the pup giggled and pulled it back.

            “Father gave it to Minho and told Minho not to mention what was heard last night but, Minho wanted to keep asking!” The pup stated and held such a sly look to his face. “Minho is rich!”

            “Ah, But Minho… You can't really buy pups!”

           “Where does pups like Minho come from?” The younger asked and stuffed the bill into his small pocket of his pajama bottoms.

           “That's a talk for another time.” Jimin replied and patted the pup's hair to mess it up after. “Do you think we got our mail today?” Jimin asked as Minho shook his head quickly and faced his father.

            “The monster!” The pup shouted as Jimin giggled and cupped his pup's face to rub his nose with the young Alpha's.

              “Calm down, Min-Min! Daddy is just going out to see if we have mail for today. Grandma and Grandpa are also going to send pictures of their puppy so Minho can hang up on the walls!” Jimin said while the pup crouched on the chair and watched Jimin walk off because he wanted the pictures of the dog more than anything! The omega then walked out of the house limping and as soon as he reached the porch, there was a letter sent just for him. However, this peculiar letter was on the porch, far from the mailbox alone and this only left a shiver down Jimin's spine. Who could have walked all this way to drop off such a letter right in front of the porch and far off the mailbox?

            Jimin took a moment to look at the letter just sitting on front of the door like someone delivered it personally. Jimin then looked up at the mailbox that was far off and outside the gates too. The omega then froze at that place while gazing at the letter, the address on it read the prison Kyunsji was in and that alone made him scared that the alpha had connections with others outside prison to deliver that horrifying letter to the Jeon family. “Again… He did it again..” Jimin whispered to himself in fear as he pushed himself forward to pick the letter up. Already, he was shaking and this alone made him long to read it. In his mind, he fretted over the fact that this letter alone magically appeared on the front porch to scare the omega since the letters were meant for him and him alone.

           “Daddy?” Minho called out in worry as Jimin opened the envelope to himself.

           “Daddy will be right there…” Jimin whispered to himself and closed his eyes for a second. “I need to give him a piece of my mind. I'm tired of running from this man… It's about time they take his privileges away.” Jimin added on and took out the letter to finally read over it while Minho was left to see his father from the back, breakdown into tears before him. Not because of the fear, but the endless torment Kyunsji threw Jimin around in that caused him to breakdown at a time like this.
