Once school had ended, Beomgyu went straight home. He was never aloud to go out after school. If he did, he would always get beaten. 

"I-I'm home"... He called when he entered the house but he got no reply. The house was quiet and Beomgyu smiled. 

"Business trip... Got it"... He headed up to his room and placed his things down before heading back downstairs to get some food before hearing the bell ring. Beomgyu turned and walked over before opening it. 

"Can I help you"? He ask the male at the door. 

"Yes are your parents home"? 

"Um... No. But I have some butlers around the house if you'd like to talk to one of them".

"No, sorry. I'd need to talk to a parent. I'll come later if they're not here". Beomgyu frowned but nodded as the male walked off, closing the door and locked in. 

"That was weird"...Beomgyu mumbled, heading back into the kitchen. 

"Young sir, who was that at the door"? One of the butlers asked. Beomgyu looked up at him. None of the butlers really talked to him, mainly cause his parents had forced them to stay quiet around him. 

"I-it was just someone looking for my parents"... 

"Ok young sir. Just asking". He walked away and Beomgyu sighed, taking his food up to his room.

Hours passed and it was already 9pm. Beomgyu had stayed in his room, studying for hours. He didn't want his father to beat him again for a low grade. 

"Young sir, you need to sleep", a butler said, looking into the room. Beomgyu shook his head. 

"I-I'm not risking another beating from my father cause of a low grade", Beomgyu spoke. 

"Please young sir. It's alright. You can study tomorrow. Your parents are gonna be away for 2 months anyway". Beomgyu turned to him

"2 months"? 

"Yeah. Didn't they tell you"? 

"M parents tell me nothing"... Beomgyu whispered, turning away. If his parents were gone for 2 months, then it wouldn't hurt to take a small break from studying.

"I guess your right. I'll study tomorrow"... He stood up from his desk and closed his books. He was very tired from how long he had stayed away. 

"Thank you young sir. We'll wake you up in the morning". Beomgyu nodded and headed to bed as the butler closed the door. The moment his head hit the pillow, Beomgyu fell asleep straight away.
