"I wanna check on Eric first. You guys go first" said Younghoon.

"Okay then".

Before he walks, he looks at one of them. He wears an oversize black hoodie. He been looking down the moment he walks out. He seems doesn't like to interact with someone. He also even not making eyes contact with any of the. He thought he might an isolation person.

'Weird'

Sunwoo put the box at the living room. In the living room, Juyeon and Eric also there. They sat at the sofa with Eric lying down on Juyeon lap. Sleeping.

"How Eric?" asked Younghoon.

"Sleeping. Sorry I can't help" said Juyeon.

Juyeon wanted to go downstairs and help, but he couldn't leave Eric alone. Eric was clinging tightly to Juyeon's hand, even while he slept.

"It's okay. We have an additional help from the neighbour" said Younghoon.

"Did you meet them?" asked Juyeon.

"Yeah. A while ago. They seem nice" said Younghoon.

"Then that's great" relief Juyeon.

"They all siblings like us. All five of them. They been staying here for about 6 years now. Oh, and their youngest is one year older than you and Eric. You guys could be friends after this" said Younghoon.

'Friend with that weirdo? I don't want to'.

"Sunwoo".

Younghoon knew what Sunwoo was thinking.

"Sorry"

"You know it's not good to say bad things about someone. Even more so with our new neighbours" said Younghoon.

"I'm said I'm sorry" said Sunwoo.

Younghoon sigh. He knew why Sunwoo was a bit emotional right now. It's not his fault for feeling that way. He knows.

"Hey, I don't blame you or anything, but we moved here not to look for trouble. You know why we moved, right?"

Sunwoo nodded. It's something that causes him to behave this way. He is not the type to get emotional. Because of that incident, he became like this.

"I'm sorry" said Sunwoo, this time more sincere.

Younghoon tap his head.

"It's okay. It's not your fault" said Younghoon.

"She won't come here, right?" asked Sunwoo.

He seems afraid now. Tears gathered in his eyes. Younghoon wipe his tears.

"It's going to be okay. You safe here. We do all we could do to protect you. That woman won't come here. She doesn't know you here" said Younghoon.

"What if she came? She will do anything to get to me" said Sunwoo afraid.

"No. Absolutely not gonna happen. All of us will protect you" said Younghoon.

"Yes, Sunwoo. We will protect you. Just trust your brother" said Juyeon.

"Okay"

"How about this? You take a rest with Eric. Then after we settle with everything, we order food. Your choice" said Younghoon.

"Sound good. Juyeon hyung, let me take your place" said Sunwoo.

"You sure?" asked Juyeon.

"Yeah. Let me take care of him" said Sunwoo.
