"Byul, please stop crying.." Beomgyu sat down on his bed in front of his computer.

He was in the middle of applying to jobs when Byul started crying.

"Beomgyu?"

Beomgyu looked up from his computer and looked at his mom.

"Please quiet her down, me and your dad are trying to sleep."

"Don't you think I am too..?" Beomgyu frowned.

"I know but dad and I are just so tired.."

Beomgyu sighed. "Whatever.."

"Do you want me to get your dad?"

"No, I'm sorry.."

"Okay."

...

"I'm basically her mom."
"Talk to them."
"Don't you think I tried..?!"
"Okay, I'm sorry."

Beomgyu sighed, laying Byul down.

"I'm sorry, Hyung, I'm just so tired.."
"It's fine, I understand."

Byul started to cry again and Beomgyu sighed.

"I'll call you back, Hyung."
"Okay, I love you."
"I love you too.."

...

"I'm trying to calm her down..!"

Beomgyus dad raised his hand at Beomgyu and he flinched, holding onto Byul tightly.

"Go to your room now." He said.

Beomgyu frowned and went to his room, still trying to quiet Byul down.

...

"Why can you not take care of her?" Beomgyus mom grabbed Byul from Beomgyu.

Beomgyu sniffled as Byul immediately stopped crying.

"See? Was that so hard??"

"Because you're her mom, I'm not she just wanted you.." Beomgyu said.

"Don't talk back, Beomgyu. Now take her, I'm tired."

Beomgyu immediately began to cry, gripping his hair.

"Why are you crying?!" Beomgyus mom asked.

"Because I'm so tired, mom..!" He cried, covering his face.

"Not as much as me..!"

"Yeah yeah, you're right, you're so fucking right! Because I get a good sleep throughout the night just like everyone in this damn house..!! Do you know when the last time I slept?" Beomgyu looked at her, still crying.

"When?"

"3 days ago because I have to take care of your stupid baby while you go do whatever you want..! That's not my baby, that will never be my baby! I wish she was never born..!!"

"Choi Beomgyu..!!"

...

"Don't you ever say that again about your sister!!" Beomgyus dad hit him once more with the belt before leaving his room.

Beomgyu sobbed and curled up into a ball.

He doesn't want to be here anymore.

...

"Beomgyu?"

When he didn't wake up his mom sighed.

"Beomgyu, wake up!"

Beomgyu woke up and looked at her.

"Byul is crying, can you help calm her down?"

"She's hungry, just feed her.." Beomgyu mumbled, closing his eyes.

"Wake up..!"

Beomgyu sighed, sitting up.

"Can't you feed her..?" Beomgyu mumbled.

"Listen to your mom."

"Fine.."

...

Beomgyus parents had guests over and they were trying to seem like the perfect family.

Beomgyus dad sat and talked to them while Beomgyus mom took care of Byul.

Beomgyu has to sit and talk with them as well but he was sleeping half of the time.

At one point Byul started crying and Beomgyu immediately stood up and tried to grab Byul from his mom.

She laughed a little out of nervousness and gave Beomgyu a look before looking at the guests.

"Beomgyu is such a good brother and son, he always wants to help with Byul." She said, smiling.

Beomgyu hesitated but agreed with her.

"Aw that's so sweet! My son also tries to help with his baby brother!" The guest smiled.

Beomgyus mom nodded.

...

"Here you go."

Beomgyu sighed, grabbing Byul from his mom.

The guest had just left.

"Lay her down, moms tired."

Beomgyu slowly nodded.

He wasn't even their son anymore.

Just a nanny.
