Baekhyun stood frozen as he came face-to-face with his dad. All the colors on his face had drained and he was looking very pale. He became speechless all of a sudden and he was unable to move. He waited for his dad to say something or even shout at him but he received none except for a straight look of expression on his dad's face.

He was left dumbfounded when his dad turned around and walked inside their house, leaving the gate open for him to enter. He breathed out the air that he was holding with the absence of his father. He thought that he was gonna die earlier, everything about his dad was really terrifying especially when he gave the silent treatment.

He made slow steps towards his house, closing the gate behind him. He inhaled a deep breath, trying to ease the burning feeling inside his throat. Suddenly, he was very thirsty and in need of water to drink but he couldn't do anything but bear it for the mean time.

He roamed his eyes around, feeling the familiarity of his home, the front yard that he spent some time when he was a child, back when his parents weren't that busy with their company, they were happy and complete.

Once he landed his foot on their doorway, a pair of arms were wrapped around him, almost knocking out his breath. "Baekhyun! My son!" His mom cried out, already in the edge of tears. He slowly returned her gesture and circled his arms around his mom's figure.

His dad stayed behind his mom, wearing an unreadable expression, he just observed the exchange of attention between his wife and son. "Where have you been? I was so worried about you." His mom pulled away, cupping his face between her hands.

Baekhyun was about to answer her when she cutted him off, "A-and what happened to your face? Did you get into a fight?" A horrified look was written on his mom's face but he thought that she was only exaggerating. He only got a few bruises and a cut on his lip from the punches that he got from Luhan and another men of Yixing, no big deal.

"I'm okay mom. This is nothing." He mumbled and gently removed his mom's hands from his face. "Let him go, honey. Can't you see that he's uncomfortable?" His dad suddenly stepped in their conversation, catching them off guard. It's a first that his father had said something, concerning his feelings.

His mom frowned in response but stepped back, creating a distance from his son. "Where have you been staying?" His dad asked suddenly causing him to wince in fear, the authority in his father's voice was still there everytime they exhange words. He sometimes think that his father sees him as a business partner rather than his own son because he always act and say so formal.

"A-at a friend of... mine." He replied, looking down to prevent the eyes of his parents who were very eager to know some information of his little runaway scheme. "Kyungsoo? He didn't know where you were." His dad questioned, crossing his arms making him look more intimidating. "A friend who i just met." Baekhyun cleared out and this time, he raised his head and met the gazes of his parents.

His dad was a bit surprised at the change of expression of Baekhyun, the change of being nervous and being confident all of a sudden. "You've been staying at some stranger's house?" His dad was quite doing well in getting into his nerves.

He unconsciously gripped his fists beside him but he tried his best not to show his anger, "I did not stay at some stranger's house. It was a FRIEND of mine." He uttered through gritted teeth, emphasizing the word friend.

"So who's Park Chanyeol? Is he the friend who let you in his house?"

Baekhyun relaxed his fists as he heard Chanyeol's name from his dad's mouth. "H-how did y-you know him?" He asked, confusion written all over his face. "Taeyeon told me that you were hanging out with this Park Chanyeol guy and worse yet she saw you kissing," The air inside Baekhyun's lungs was knocked out off him those words were stated by his dad.

T-Taeyeon saw us kissing? But i thought she left before us. Were she following us?

"Tell me, Baekhyun. Do you have any relationship with Park Chanyeol?" His dad grilled him thoroughly, he was taking short breaths as he asked his son. He was infuriated with the thought of his son being gay or bisexual, he couldn't belive that his only son could turn that way. "I-i... w-we..." Baekhyun was at loss of words, he wanted to say yes and defend himself but he knew that he couldn't win over his father.

"Tell me! Answer my question!" His dad shouted and he jumped in shock at the sudden outburst of his father. "Honey, come on. Calm down. Let's talk about this tomorrow. This will not be good for your health." His mom cutted in, taking her husband's hand and guiding him to his room.

Baekhyun limply fell on the floor and he inhaled vigorously. He was panicking and worrying for Chanyeol even more. His dad will not be helping with Chanyeol's situation with Yixing now. If only he's brave enough to stop his father from doing anything but he couldn't, because afterall, he was still the Baekhyun who was afraid of his parents and had to follow everything they say.

Mr.Byun slowly sat on his chair behind his office table, he massaged his temples, in attempt to put out the fire inside of him. He was raging as he remembered the picture that Taeyeon had sent to him.

From: Kim Taeyeon

Uncle, i met Baekhyun but didn't expect to see him like this. I'm very sorry, Uncle.

It was something he couldn't believe, his own son lip locked with another guy. He was so angry that all he could think of was to prevent them from seeing each other again even if it has to involve someone's death.

He grabbed his phone on his table and dialled a number,

"I want you to investigate on someone."
