15

Yitao would like to say thank you for the birthday wishes that you guys sent him on his birthday! :D And with that, he drew you guys a picture.

He says that he loves you all (:

// edit ->: I remembered something, my mom asked how the 'nanny' story was going and I said that it was doing okay. And I showed her one of the comments and it mentioned about Kris and she asked:

'Oh...Kris, is Kris the nanny?'

I laughed in my head and I just simply nodded. 'yes mom...Kris is the nanny.'

// edit 2 ->: sorry, this is just a chapter re-upload. I dunno what I was thinking (so early in the morning too!) xD lol so if you read it already, great! no need to re-read it...unless you want to xD and yeah. my bad sorry. (though, I did some checking xD they are just minior ones though :3 )

Tao rested his elbow on the arm rest; he was waiting for his boarding call. His knee kept jumping up and down; he tried to calm himself, but the what he did, he was unsure with himself if he did the right thing or not.

'I'm doing the right thing…right?' The former nanny pondered. 'Of course Tao! You are doing the right thing! Boss said to stop having this crush on him. It's just better to resign anyway. At least he will be happy again and you can forget about him like he wanted. Plus…he has been angry with you…for stupid reasons too!' He nodded.' Its better to get out before he does something.' Tao nodded again, but slowly stopped. 'What about Yitao?' Tao widen his eyes. How was the young panda going to react when he is not there? Would he hate him for leaving? Surely he would cry. Tao's eyes started to water; he wiped his eyes, not caring if people will stare.

'I'm sorry Yitao…please don't be mad at me.'

"All boarding. Qingdao, Shandong, China. All boarding."

"What are we going to do?!" Sehun whispered, but loud enough for Xiumin and Chen to hear. The gardener woke up this morning feeling good, but his happy morning ended up crashing down when he saw a letter on his floor, that seemed that it was slipped through his doorway. He, along with the others, found out that Tao left with no mention of his whereabouts.

"Sehun please calm down." Xiumin tried to calm down the gardener.

"How can I calm down? Knowing that Tao left?! Did we do something wrong? Where we annoying?!"

"You are starting to annoy me." Chen whispered to himself.

"What was that?" Sehun glanced at the chauffeur, who just shook his head.

"Listen…whatever it may be…Tao probably had a good reason why he left." He grabbed the letter that was on the kitchen counter. "The letter doesn't say much…just mentioning that he is sorry…and that he will be resigning." He folded up the letter and placed it back on the counter. "Knowing him for months…he doesn't look like the person that would just up and leave you know…so their might be a good reason why."

Xiumin nodded at what his boyfriend said. "He is right." He started to pat Sehun on the back. "There is nothing that we can --" Xiumin stopped when the three of them heard foot steps running to the kitchen.

"Good morning!" Yitao said cheerfully; he held out for the three to see. "Look! Mommy made me a drawing! I found it this morning! See, it is a mama panda with a baby one. Me and mommy!" He went to Xiumin and asked if he could make breakfast for his 'mother' as a thank you for the drawing.

"Oh…um…how about we do it later hm? I think T-Tao is still sleeping. And the b-breakfast might spoil. It would be a waste."

"Oh…okay." Yitao was a little sad that his plan for making breakfast for this 'mother' didn't work, but he was willing to wait.

Sehun turned away, feeling sick to his stomach. He walked out, leaving the others in the kitchen. The gardener quickly went to Kris' room, wanting to talk about Tao. "Open up! Open up! Open up!" He said childishly as he banged on the door, waiting impatiently for his Boss to open the door and ignoring the taped paper on the door.

The door quickly opened to reveal a bed headed Kris. "What?! Sehun?! Whats going on?!"

The gardener's eyes narrowed at him. "Tao is gone." He said with anger in his voice. "He is gone and we don't know where he is!"

Kris felt his stomach turn. "W-what do you --"

"He is freakin' gone! How else am I supposed to say it?!" Sehun huffed and brushed his hair back. He considered Tao as his best friend, even if he was annoying and taking pictures all the time, over the months he and the nanny had been close. Losing a friend was like losing a brother for him. He glanced at the door and saw a taped letter. "I-is that…thats from Tao!" He snatched the letter from the door. "I got one…and so did Xiumin and Chen."

He handed his Boss the letter for to read it. Kris looked over the letter; he couldn't believe what he was reading. Tao did leave. And it was mostly his fault.

'I…drove him away?'

"Boss! I-I think we should go after him!"

Kris looked up. "Why?"

Sehun's eyes widen. "What do you mean why?!" He threw his hands up in the air. "This is Tao!!" He started to flail; the gardener knew he was crossing the line at yelling at his Boss, but Kris seriously needed a wake up call. "Don't you like him?" He whispered.

Kris was unsure what to say. He continued to stare at Sehun, with nothing coming out from his mouth.

"Well?! Don't you?"

It was quiet among them for a bit. Kris slowly started to look down on the floor.

"If Tao wanted to leave…its his choice." He stepped back and closed his bedroom door, leaving Sehun shocked at his Boss' answer.

'Thats a lie. I know it.' Sehun turned around and walked away.

--- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) ---

Tao stood in front of a familiar door; he smiled a bit. Once he landed, he hailed a taxi and instructed him to take him to a familiar apartment complex. Ms. Lin has been neighbors with him and his family ever since he could remember. He adjusted his bags and started to knock on the door. It took awhile, but the door opened, revealing an older lady.

"T-Tao?"

"H-hello Ms. Lin."

Ms. Lin couldn't believe it; she quickly gave the former nanny a hug. "When…h-how…does anyone know --"

Tao chuckled. "It's nice seeing you too." He tighten his hug. He sure did miss the older lady. Since the day his mother ran out on him and his family when he was 10, Ms. Lin was kind enough to take care of Luhan, Yixing, and himself, even though she had children of her own. She was truly an amazing woman.

"Come in! Come in!" She made way for Tao and motioned for him to come inside her apartment. "I was just making some warm milk with honey. Would you like some?"

"Um," Tao made his way to the kitchen table. Still the same as he was younger. "I was wondering if you can make --"

"Peach milk tea?" She smiled. "I still remember."

Tao smiled. "Please?"

"Of course." She chuckled. As Tao said as he sat on the chair. He looked around and smiled. It did bring back memories; him and his brothers running around and playing with Ms. Lin's three sons. "Here you go." She placed his cup in front of him.

"Thank you. Um, how are my brothers…and dad?"

"Oh! Luhan is recovering very fast. I was going to pick him up today. The doctors just want to run a few tests before they can release him. Your father still needs to be in the hospital though." Tao looked up at Ms. Lin.

"T-there are no signs that he is getting better?"

"Well…he was getting better…but…then dropped back…but please don't worry…your father is a strong man. He will get through this." She patted Tao's hand. "As for Yixing. Though…that brother of yours…doesn't want to leave the hospital." She sighed as she placed her hand on her cheek.

Tao raised his eye brow. 'Doesn't want to leave?' "What do you mean?" He just hoped that it wasn't that he flirted with someone in the hospital. Whenever he flirts with someone, he doesn't stop until they give in. Of course, Yixing was loved by all because of his handsome looks, but it was his personality that Tao kind of hated. Yixing was, as Tao would like to put it, a player. Incredibly, handsome player.

"He flirted with a nurse in training."

'Spoke too soon.' Tao shook his head. "Thats Yixing for you…always flirting with pretty girls."

"Actually…it was a male nurse." Ms. Lin pointed out. "But he was charming." She chuckled a bit.

"Wait…my brother flirted with…oh jeez." He pinched the bridge of his nose. "So…he just hangs around the hospital?"

"Hm." The older lady nodded. "Well, he was the first one out of the hospital. He got out…hm…maybe a week ago? Anyway, since he is out of the hospital, he still goes to visit the male nurse that took care of him. It's funny because the male nurse is starting to get annoyed."

The former nanny rolled his eyes. 'Jeez, Yixing…'.

"You can stay here if you want."

"Huh?" Tao looked up from his cup of tea.

"I said that you can stay here. I'm going to get Luhan…and maybe Yixing, if he doesn't get too stubborn." She said as she stood up from her seat.

"I-I can come with --"

"No. Please stay here and get some rest." She smiled at him. "Luhan and Yixing will be surprised to come home to see you." She went to the kitchen counter and grabbed a key from the pink ceramic bowl. "I still have your apartment key. You can stay here or you can go to the apartment if you want."

Tao nodded and grabbed the key. "I think I'll stay in the apartment." He stood up and headed towards the door with his bags; Ms. Lin smiled at him and followed.

"Okay then. I'll be back okay?" Once they stepped out, Ms. Lin waved goodbye and started to head down stairs. Tao watched as she walked away to pick up his brothers. He turned around and headed to his family's apartment.

'I wonder how everyone is.' The former nanny sighed.

--- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) ---

Kris sat on his bed and continued to stare at the letter that was taped on his door.

"Don't you like him?"

He remembered what Sehun asked him. Did he? Well, the news that he received was shocking for him, but it didn't mean that he liked him.

"What do you mean why?! This is Tao!!"

He crumpled the letter and threw it on the floor. "If he wanted to leave, then it was his choice." He turned his head to the knocking at his door. "Come in." The door opened to reveal a sad baby panda.

"Daddy…I can't find mommy." He hiccuped as he rubbed his eye.

Seeing his son cry broke his heart. "C-come here." He opened his arms for his son, who ran to him. Kris picked him up and placed him on his lap. He started to pat his back and tried his best to comfort the young panda, but Yitao continued to let his tears fall.

"I-I went to mommy's room and…a-and mommy didn't answer. S-so I opened the door and he wasn't there and I looked everywhere and I couldn't find him! He's gone!" He wailed out to his father, leaving a wet spot on his father's shoulder. "I want mommy!"

"Yitao --"

"I want mommy!!"

Kris continued to cradle his son in his arms. He was unsure what to do; he hated seeing his son like this.

"Was I bad?"

Kris glanced at his son. "Huh?"

"Was I bad?" Yitao wiped his eyes. "Did I do something --"

"No you didn't Yitao." He his son's head. "M-mommy loved you very much. You know that."

"Then why did mommy leave?"

'Because it was my fault.' "I don't know."

It was quiet among them; Yitao was able to calm down. He continued to lay his head on his father's shoulder.

"Yitao."

The young panda looked up at his father.

"Do you…remember who this is?" Kris leaned over and grabbed a picture frame that was on his bed side table, that contained a happy family; he pointed at the lady in the photo. "This one right here."

The young panda stared at the photo and nodded. "Thats the lady from my dream."

That took Kris from surprised. "W-wait…what?"

Yitao nodded as he grabbed the photo frame. "Yeah, she is really pretty huh?" He smiled, but it slowly faded. "My real mommy…right?" He looked up at his father. Kris slowly smiled; his son may be young, but he was smart.

"Yes."

Yitao looked back at the photo and rubbed his eye. "She was in my dream and…and she would sing to me and all the monsters in my dream would go away! A-and she tells me that she loves me and daddy too."

"Really." Kris read about those things were the people who passed away would sometimes visit their loved ones, to make sure that they are okay and such. He thought that it was preposterous, but hearing that his son had a dream about his late wife, scared him a bit. "Thats…nice."

"Does daddy miss mommy?"

'Huh?' "Erm, I-I --"

"Does daddy miss both mommies?" He pointed at the picture frame of his real mother. "Do you miss her?" With no hesitation, Kris nodded. "Does daddy miss mommy too? Mommy Tao?"

"Erm…" Kris held out his hand, showing Yitao his thumb and index finger, making a small gap between the two fingers. "I little bit." He said softly.

"I miss mommy...Mommy Tao." He placed his head back on his father's shoulder.

"D-don't you miss your real mommy?"

Yitao nodded. "But…she isn't here anymore." He whispered. "Mommy Tao acts like a mommy to me." He looked up at his father. "M-my real mommy won't be mad at me…right?"

"Why would she be mad at you?"

"Because…because…I call mommy Tao…mommy now."

Kris patted his son's back. "I don't think she would get mad."

Yitao smiled a bit, but his smiled slowly faded. It was again quiet among them. Kris glanced at his son's sadden face; he started to Yitao's cheeks.

"Do you want mommy…erm, mommy Tao…to come home?" Yitao sniffed and nodded his head. Kris bit his bottom lip. "Okay then. I'll bring mommy home." The young panda looked up with wide eyes.

"Really?"

Kris slowly smiled. "I'll bring him home." He held out his pinky finger. "I promise okay. I'll bring him home."

Yitao did the same thing what his father did, he held out his pinky finger. Kris wrapped their pinkies together. "This means that my promise won't break."

The young panda smiled. "Okay."

--- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) ---

Weeks passed, Kris and the other workers tried their best to find where Tao was, but they were unsure now what to do now. The other workers were at a slump; they went back to Tao's old apartment thinking that he was there, to only find out that it was occupied by couple. When they asked Baekhyun, he was unsure what they were talking about. They avoided in telling him what happened, not wanting to worry him.

As workers were sitting at the kitchen table, Xiumin snapped his fingers, as if he realized something. "Ms. Lin!"

"Who?" Sehun asked as he peeled his banana.

"You know…the one that Tao calls to make sure that she received the money for his family." Xiumin got up from the table and made his way to the phone. "I remember…I saved it because I kept getting confused with the number. I thought they were telemarketers." He walked back to the kitchen table. "I know…its here -- Ah ha! Tao didn't erase it!." He showed them the number.

"Go call her!" Chen motioned the phone. "She probably knows where he is!"

"Why me?" Xiumin pouted.

"Uh…because you are holding the phone?" Chen pointed out.

"You do it!" Xiumin held out the phone towards Chen.

"What? Why me?!"

"Have you heard Tao speak to her? Chinese!" Xiumin said as he waved the phone around.

"What makes you think I can speak Chinese?!"

"Didn't you take a Chinese language class?!"

"Yeah…in high school! That was a millions of years ago! The only think I remember is 'hello', 'goodbye', 'where is the bathroom', and 'how much is that'!!" Chen flailed his hands. "You did too! You do it!"

"I remember squat!" Xiumin pushed the phone towards Chen, while he pushed it back. Sehun on the other hand, kept looking back and forth at the two. 'These two…are not acting their age. How immature.' He looked over to see Kris coming in the kitchen; he leaned over and grabbed the phone.

"Hey --" Both Chen and Xiumin said.

"Here Boss! Catch!" He threw the phone to Kris, who caught it with ease. "Call the number."

"What? Why?" Kris looked down at the phone. "Ms. Lin?"

Sehun nodded. "Tao calls her remember? She is the one that he sends money too. Tao never deleted it. She probably knows where Tao is…maybe." He stuck his thumb at the chauffeur and the chef. "Those two are too scared to call."

"Why?"

"They don't remember any of their chinese."

"Wait…wha…oh yeah."

"Yeah, since you are multilingual…you know the language better than all of us…you call."

Kris nodded and pressed 'talk'. He heard a couple of rings, before he heard a 'hello'.

"Ah, um, hello…Ms. Lin?" Kris said in Chinese.

"This is her. May I ask who is calling?"

"My name is Kris…um, Tao worked for me and --"

"Oh! Tao's boss. Of course…thank you for taking such good care of him by the way."

"Ah, sure. Sure…um, I just need to ask you a question."

"Sure."

"You see…Tao left my mansion hm, a couple of weeks ago…and myself and my employees don't know where he is and --"

"Oh…well, he is right here."

Kris' eyes widen. "Wait…you mean…he is in China?"

Sehun looked at his Boss' widen eyes. He figured that he must know where Tao is now.

"Well…yeah. D-didn't he tell…he told me that he told you that he was here."

"Wh-what else did he tell you?"

"Um, he told me that he resigned and that he was going to stay here permanently. I'm sorry…didn't he tell you all of this before he left?"

'Permanently? Why…it is your fault Kris…look what you did.' Kris thought as he bit his lips.

"Erm, sir?"

"Y-yes? I'm sorry. What was that?"

"Well…um, Tao is out in the moment to look for a job…I can leave you a message if you would --"

"N-no. That won't be necessary. Um…may I ask one more thing."

"Of course."

"Where in China."

"Where?"

Kris nodded as if she was looking at him. "Yes. Where in China."

"Qingdao, Shandong."

"Thank you."

"Sure. Is that all?"

"Ye-- Wait! Please don't tell Tao."

"Why?"

"Just…please. Um…I want to um…surprise visit him."

"Oh! I like surprises. Sure. I won't say a thing then."

Kris smiled. "Thank you. It was nice talking to you."

"Likewise." With that, they hanged up.

"What did she say?" Chen asked. "Does she know where Tao is?"

Kris placed the phone on the counter. "Yes, she does."

"Where is he?" Xiumin asked.

" Qingdao, Shandong…China."

--- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) ---

"No Sehun." Kris said as he walked around his room.

"Please?! Pretty please?!"

"I said no." Kris glared at the gardener. 'This is supposed to be an adult in front of me, but this is a child!'

"Why not?!"

"Because I'm the one who has to bring back Tao." Kris placed his green round neck stripe long sleeve shirt, along with his khaki pants. He was unsure how long he was going to stay there, but he made a promise to Yitao, no matter what, he will bring Tao back home.

"But you might mess up!"

"What are you talking about?"

"Well…you might say the wrong things to Tao." Sehun mumbled a bit. He looked up at his Boss, who was getting his things ready. Sehun proposed that he would go get Tao for him, but was shot back with a question of 'where will you get the money for the plane ticket', in which he turned to Xiumin and Chen, but only to have his head smacked by the couple. The gardener thought that maybe he would be better in persuading Tao to come back, but his Boss dismissed him. "Boss."

"Hm?"

"Do you like Tao?"

Kris slightly stopped on what he was doing, but gave no answer.

"Well, do you?"

Still, no answer came from his Boss, making the gardener slightly irritated.

"Boss…what if…I told you that I liked him?"

Immediately, Kris turned to face the gardener. He slightly narrowed his eyes at him and gave him a look as if he was unsure what he just heard. "What did you say?"

Sehun kept a straight face, studying his Boss' face and body language. "You heard me."

"You can't like him."

"Why not?" Sehun started to cross his arms. "Give me one reason." 'This is it! Come on Boss…listen to your heart and forget about your stupid pride.' "Just one reason."

Kris looked anywhere but Sehun. Should he tell him; that he might have something for the former nanny. "I…um, I…"

"You do right?" Sehun finished his sentence for him. "Right? You like him?" 'Please say yes'

Kris sighed and slowly nodded. Sehun smiled. 'Finally.' "That is what I thought." Kris looked up at him with a confused expression. "I was just testing to see what you would do. Don't worry...I have no feelings for Tao...whats so ever. Promise."

Kris' eyes showed that he was happy that Sehun didn't have any feelings towards the former nanny, yet he scoffed a bit and returned back to his packing. "He probably hates me now."

"Huh?"

"Sehun…when he confessed to me, I told him to get rid the crush that he had on me. I said that it wasn't right. An employee having a crush on their Boss is wrong." He started to fold his shirt. "I said…that having a crush on me is sickening. I might have mentioned that it was stupid of him to have one on me."

"Why would --"

"I don't know okay. It was stupid of me to do so. I thought that I was straight. Straight as a pole...but when he told me that...I don't know. It shocked me? But I don't hate males having relations on other males…I mean, look at Xiumin and Chen, they kiss in front of me...but...I-I don't know!"

"That was the time…with Geunsuk right? You were probably angry at what Geunsuk did...but you took it out on Tao. Boss…Tao was defenseless! He was the one that was hurt and you hurt him even more! You weren't thinking straight -- "

"I know that." He sighed. "I know."

"The one with that guy…Intae…w-when you took Tao away…he rushed up to me because I was calling you and Tao. He probably figured that I knew you." Kris looked up at Sehun, waiting for him to continue. "A-and…he was asking what was wrong and I told him that I was unsure. He gave me Tao's bag that he left behind…and he told me that you probably saw him giving a peck on Tao's cheek and --"

"Wait…you said…peck?"

"Well, yeah."

"No, that guy gave him a kiss."

Sehun shook his head. "No…he told me he gave him a peck. You might have saw it differently. Maybe at an angle?"

Kris thought back for a moment and realized that Sehun was right. "."

"You thought that…you knew…okay see this is what I'm talking about." Sehun shook his head. His Boss sometimes jumps into conclusions; sometimes its funny, and sometimes it is sad."I need come with you…just to make sure that you don't mess this up."

Kris contemplated, thinking about the pros and cons of bringing Sehun along. Sure, he can help him bring Tao home, but then again, he might get distracted, or worse, give him wrong advice and make things worse. "Well…okay fine. You can come."

"Yes!" Sehun did a punch in the air. "Don't worry Boss. I'm an expert on this." Kris rolled his eyes and nodded in agreement.

"Whatever you say. Get packing. We will be leaving in three days."

Sehun nodded and was about to exited his room, when an idea hit. "Boss."

"Yes…Sehun. What is it?"

"Bring Yitao along."

"Huh? Why?" Kris furrowed his brow.

"Think about it. Yitao has been sad for weeks…seeing Tao will make him happy."

Kris nodded at what the gardener said. He thought that it was a good plan and decided to agree with that. His son would be excited to see his 'mother' again.

"Great!" Sehun smiled and exited the room, closing the door behind him.

'Just wait Tao…just wait.' Kris thought as he continued to pack.

--- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) --- (TAORIS) ---

Tao currently was sitting on the cherry wooden floors, fanning himself with a hand made fan that he made out of paper that he found in his apartment. It was getting very hot and it started to annoy him. He wiped the sweat on his forehead with his navy, short sleeved shirt. He was lazy and he didn't want to do anything.

"Tao, you want something to drink?"

Tao turned around to see his elder brother with a glass of cold green tea.

"Sure. Thank you!"

When Luhan and Yixing found out, they were ecstatic to know that their youngest brother came home, permanently. Tao, however, failed to mention the true reason why he left in the first place. He thought that it was unnecessary to do so.

"Did you find a job yet?"

"Hm," He shook his head as he placed the glass down on the floor. "No…not yet."

"Oh, well then," Luhan sat on the wooden chair behind Tao. "The place that I worked for, before I got into the accident…they still held my job for me. I'm going back tomorrow…Come with me."

"What was it again?" Tao leaned back, looking at his elder brother.

"It is like a learning center slash day care center. Come on, you took care of your Boss' kid. It's the same thing…just that there is a lot of them. And they are very cute children!" Luhan chuckled.

Tao chuckled along and nodded. "Okay. I'll go."

"Great!" Luhan got up and headed to the kitchen. "I'll tell them that you are coming along. Oh, which reminds me, Ms. Lin's son works there too!"

"Oh?" Tao yelled. "Which one?"

Luhan peaked from the corner and smirked. "The youngest one."

Tao, quickly looked at his elder brother. "A-Aaron?"

Luhan giggled some. "Yup! He looks really different now. It would be nice for you two to see each other again." He went back to the kitchen to call his workplace. Tao brought his knees up to his chest and started to think about Ms. Lin's youngest son, Aaron. Ms. Lin had three sons, Calvin, Jiro, and Aaron, who were all older than him and his brothers, maybe 7 to 13 years older. He smiled a bit and remembered the memories of when he was young; Calvin would play with Luhan since they were the oldest among them, and Jiro and Yixing were play with each other, while he and Aaron would play together, since they were the youngest. In honesty, Aaron was probably his first boy crush, he was sweet, handsome, and he would always protect him from Jiro and Yixing, who would scare him sometimes as a prank.

"I wonder what he looks like now." Tao mumbled quietly to himself. He looked up when he heard someone knocking on the door. 'Yixing forgot his keys again?!' Tao groaned and got up from the floor, taking his glass and placing it on the table. He walked towards the door and opened it.

"Yixing why do-- Yah!" Tao fell backwards, his hitting the floor.

"Mommy!" The young panda hugged tightly on Tao's waist.

"Yi-Yitao?!" Tao tried to comprehend that the young panda was in front of him, but his mind was not working properly.

"Are you okay Tao?" The former nanny looked up, only to be shocked.

"Sir!?"

"Hey Tao!" Sehun popped his head through the door way and took out his camera, snapping a picture of a surprised Tao.

"Sehun." Tao gritted his teeth.

"Tao? Whats going on?" Luhan came out of the kitchen, with a worried expression. "Whats going on!? Who are these -- Eep!!" Immediately, Luhan was dipped by the gardener.

"Holy god, you are beautiful!" Luhan frighteningly stared at the gardener, but tried his best to hold his composure.

"Sehun! Let go of my brother!" Tao said.

"Brother? This is a boy?" Sehun looked back at one that he just dipped, who was now smiling at him. 'Holy ! His smile is perfect!' Quickly, his thoughts were irrupted when he felt a slap on the face.

"Ow!" Sehun cupped his cheek with right hand, but instead of dropping Luhan on the floor, he brought him close with this left. "That hurt!" He whined towards the Chinese male.

"Get your disgusting hands off of me!" Luhan yelled at him as he started to punch him on the chest.

"Okay okay! Stop it!" Sehun backed off. "My god you are not precious anymore."

Luhan glared at the other and rushed towards Tao, who was still sitting on the floor. "Are you okay? Who are these people?"

"Mommy? Who is that?" Yitao tugged on Tao's shirt, staring at the blonde haired male next to his 'mother'.

"Mommy?" Luhan looked at his brother. "Did he just call you --"

"Yes! Yes, he did." Tao's cheeks started to redden.

"Well, why --"

"Just 'cause." Tao tried to change the subject. He was starting to get embarrassed.

"Mommy…who is that?"

"Erm, this is mommy's older sibling." Tao motioned to Luhan.

"Oh." Yitao smiled at Luhan. "Auntie!"

"No --"

"What?!" Luhan turned a deep red. Sehun tried his best to hold onto his laughter, as well as Kris, but they thought it was just too funny and precious of Yitao to refer Tao's older brother as an auntie.

"Yi-Yitao…this is my older brother. So he is an uncle. Not auntie."

"Oh." Yitao nodded in understanding. "But I have lots of uncles…I have no aunties." He turned to Luhan. "Can I call you auntie? Please?"

"I…erm…I --" Luhan was unsure what to tell the young child. He found all of this way too strange, but looking at the young panda made him remember of how Tao was when he was young. He would always pull this sad look to get him to do whatever he wanted. "Um…s-sure. I guess."

"Yay!" Yitao made his way to Luhan and gave his 'auntie' and hug. "My name is Yitao! What is your name auntie?"

"Erm…L-Luhan. It's Luhan."

Yitao smiled brightly; he turned around and pointed at his father. "That is my daddy. Mommy worked for him and," He pointed at Sehun. "That is my uncle. He plants flowers around our house to make it look pretty."

Tao completely forgot that his Boss was standing in front of his door. He quickly stood up and brushed his shirt to make himself look presentable. "S-sir. What are you doing here? H-how --"

"I called Ms. Lin. Next time, when you think of running away…think about erasing Ms. Lin's contact."

The former nanny looked down; he forgot about the number. Now was he going to get scolded, in front of his brother and in the inside of his own home.

"Running away?" Luhan asked as he stood up. "What is he talking about? You said that you resigned and staying here permanently."

"Um…I…I-I --" Tao's heart was beating fast; what was he going to do now.

"Ah," Sehun interrupted as if sensing that Tao needed help. "What…my Boss meant was…erm…that h-he…um, wow! That is a nice vase. I like that vase. Where did you get that?" Sehun rushed towards the vase that in the corner of the living room. "My goodness it looks like an antique."

"Uh…yeah it is." Luhan gave a questioning look at the gardener. "But…anyway, Tao, what did --"

"Wow, I am hungry." Sehun started to say. He approached Luhan and picked up Yitao with his one hand and grabbed Luhan's hand with his other. "Would you be so kind to lead me around the area? I'm kinda hungry. Maybe a food stand? Yeah? Okay thanks man! Bye Tao! Bye Boss!" Sehun stressed out the last sentence, giving his Boss the eye to make sure not to mess it up with Tao.

"Hey! Wait! Tao!" Luhan said, but the door was quickly closed by Sehun. It was quiet, with just the former nanny, along with his Boss in front of him. Kris wanted to speak, but no words came out. Tao kept his gaze on the ground; he knew that his Boss is going to be angry with him. Just when he thought that he finally got away.

"Sir…what are you doing here." He said softly, still looking down at the wooden floors.

"I…I'm here to bring you back."

"Huh?" Tao looked up, staring at his former Boss with a questioning expression.

"I'm here to bring you back home. Back to Korea"

Tao stared at his Boss; he tighten his lips and slowly shook his head. "I'm sorry Sir."

Kris started to frown.

"I'm not going back."

Anyone know who I am talking about when I mentioned Calvin, Jiro, and Aaron?

They are in a Taiwanese boyband, called Fahrenheit. Though the group used to consist of four boys, the 3 mentioned above along with Wu Chun, but he left the group in 2011 to persue his acting career and spend time with his family.
