"Both of you are grounded for the whole week!" Mr Oh's voice boomed in the entire living room as he reprimanded his twins. "No use of cars and I'll be taking back your car keys!"

"But dad," Sera burst into tears.

"No buts!"

"Dad! This is too much!" Sera was hysterical already. Mr Oh looked at her furiously.

"Too much? Then you should've think about the consequences first before starting a cat-fight with Mina." He said. "Be thankful that you're not going to be suspended from the school. I'm only grounding you. Don't act like your life is over just because you're grounded."

Mina almost rolled her eyes at how Sera's over-reacting. She's just grounded for a week. For a week. Not for a year. Geez...

"Dad..."

"Why did you start a fight with Mina?" Mrs Oh asked calmly. Or maybe she was trying to be calm despite everything.

"She started it! She slapped Sehun—" She stopped short when her parents abruptly turned their heads toward Mina. Sera smirked. It was a you-are-so-dead kind of smirk.

"Is that true, Mina-yah?" Mrs Oh asked her. She gulped.

"Is that true, Sehun?" Mr Oh asked his son when she didn't reply immediately.

"Y-Yes, it's true." She admitted. If the Ohs will shove her out of the house after this, then it's up to them. "Y-Yes, I slapped Sehun. It's because—"

Mina gulped once more. She could feel Sehun's piercing eyes on her, no need for her to look up. She could feel his burning eyes on her. "Y-Yes, it's true that I slapped Sehun. But I have reasons why I did that." She gulped again when she noticed the Ohs were waiting for her to continue, even the twins were anticipating it. "Sehun is being a jerk, sorry for the word, but he always bully me. He started it. I really don't want to slap him but he provoked me. He's calling me names and I erupted. One moment, everything was red. And then I slapped him." She said in one go.

For a moment, Mr and Mrs Oh were just silent as they stood there. She wondered if they will believe every word she said.

"Is that true, Sehun?" Mr Oh asked his son. Instead of Sehun asnwering it, It was Sera who responded. Clearly to defend her twin brother.

"She's just making up stories, dad. Don't tell me you believe her?"

"We're not asking you to speak, Sera." Mrs Oh said in gritted teeth. And that made Sera shut .

"I'm not expecting you all to believe me," Mina muttered. "But I'm telling the truth." She lowered her head and had her eyes lay still on her fidgeted fingers.

"So it's true." Mr Oh spoke after some time. "It's t
