Jaehee hugged her knees as she watched Jeno kick the training dummy with his entire might, sending it across the forest floor. As if to emphasize his power, Jeno took a knife out, throwing it so it landed in the chest of the dummy, right where the heart would have been.

It honestly concerned her, how angry Jeno was. He wasn't one to express how he was feeling through words, but it was always clear through his actions.

And right now, he was angry. He was very angry.

"Jeno." Jaehee said softly as Jeno took out a second knife. He paused halfway before putting his knife down, recalling that his girlfriend was right there.

As if he could read her mind, Jeno went over to the dummy, dragging it back and placing it upright again. He then moved to where Jaehee was, taking a deep breath as he pushed his hair back before bending down in front of her.

"I'm sorry." Jeno said quietly. "I'm just not in a good mood."

"I know." Jaehee said, reaching out and taking his hand. "I can tell, you know. You make it quite obvious."

Jeno sat down across from her, crossing his legs as Jaehee continued to hold his hand. "My father is pretty worked up, so training has been rough recently."

"I feel like it's a bit more than your father." Jaehee mumbled. Jeno sighed, having heard what Jaehee said.

"Okay fine, maybe I'm still holding a grudge." Jeno admitted. "But Haechan really pissed me off that day. I don't understand what his problem was, he didn't have to say all that."

You didn't say very nice things either, Jaehee wanted to say but she was worried that this would only start fights between them. They had only started dating recently and the last thing she wanted was tension between the two.

"Do you want a hug then?" Jaehee suggested, looking at Jeno with soft round eyes. Jeno chuckled, a smile forming on his face as he opened his arms, letting Jaehee crawl towards him and give him a tight hug.

"You're adorable, you know that right?" Jeno said as Jaehee hugged him, resting her head in his chest.

Jaehee simply smiled and blushed, not knowing how to respond. She felt Jeno calm down but on the inside, she had no idea if his anger had truly faded,

...

"Did you hear what happened?"

Shuyu looked up from her drawing, surprised to see the male standing by her door. "What are you doing here?"

"Visiting." Yangyang chuckled, stepping in. She noticed that he was holding something, a wide grin on his face. "And perhaps I brought a gift."

Shuyu moved back, curious as to what this "gift" was. Yangyang soon showed her the object in his hands, a soft teddy bear plush. Shuyu's smile widened, Yangyang passing her the toy, letting her feel the soft and squishy texture of it.
