Pete -

I got out of bed and walked to the bathroom with difficulty. I
was aching to the point where it almost didn't hurt anymore.
How long do I have to spend my life like this? I was physically
and mentally tired. I was living like I wasn't human.

By now, the major clan must be thinking I was dead already.
Boss Kinn, did you really forget about me? As for the young
master, wasn't he feeling strange without me? Suddenly, I felt a
littleinsecure. But if I looked at it from another angle, maybe he
was looking for ways to help me.

Porsche, Pol, Arm--they'd never forget me. Maybe everyone
was doing something right now.Hurry up and help me. I don't know how much longer I could endure this.

Frail and fragile like I've never been before. I felt so much self-
pity. I'm going to die!

I took a shower, washing my eyes and whole face. Good thing
the bastard had some toiletries inthe bathroom. It's just that I
didn't know what I can and can't use. Or hey... Maybe I shouldn't
shower at all. Make myself dirty so Vegas wouldn't dare to come
near me. But I was terribly disgusted from the stains on my
body. Just the thought of what Vegas was doing to me made me
want to hurry up and wash it all off. That method wouldn't work.

A person like me definitely couldn't stand my own condition like this.

I walked out of the bathroom and turned up the air conditioner to
raise the temperature. I couldn't wear my shirt so it was so cold. I could only wear and put on some sweatpants that I randomly
found inside his wardrobe. Fortunately, his height and body size were not much different from me. I didn't want to touch his stuff, but I had no choice!

After that, I went to eat the breakfast that Nop brought in. When I saw the things on the plate, Ilet out a big sigh. Sausages, fried eggs, and bread. Why the hell do they make me keep eating these? But that's just how it was in a rich man's house.

Except for the young master, that one eats weirdly. Tankhun
would eat a lot, but sometimes he would choose not to eat, then
sometimes he eats everything in front of him. I thought about
him,and I really missed him. I would rather live with his
childish insanity than to suffer from this kind of torture.

What was the difference between being at the second family's
house and the main family's house? It's the word home.
The major clan was filled with high expectations and being a
stronghold. But everyone respected each other and lived together with understanding. There were still controversies, but they all rose up and the family was held together in the love of the three brothers. It was a family with Boss Korn's nurturing and him keeping everything as beautiful as
possible. It was a family with love, kindness, and caring for
everyone in the house, making the major clan's home as strong as a big tree.

Meanwhile the minor clan was as hot as fire. Everyone tried to
heal by themselves. It was like a plant that was about to run out
of water. Despite the love the two brothers had for each other, it
wasn't enough to make the home as beautiful as they wanted. I
had been following Vegas for a week. I knew that he rarely
came home. Macau, too. At first, I was surprised. But when I got
here, I finally saw the cracks that appeared in their family's
foundation.

I finished the food on the plate. I got up from the sofa and
turned to look at the dark blue bedsheets that were folded near me. I felt deeply hurt that I had to see the second family being
like this. But no, I gotta close my eyes and endure it. Go back to
being angry with him again. I felt lost now.

Vegas, I'm not going to question how you grew up to be like this
because I know you had these problems since you were a child.

I casually laid the sheets on the bed and took care of the pillow
covers and blankets for a while. The idiot then entered the room. I quickly stopped everything I was doing and walked straight to him.
