“Oh Sehun, what is going on?!” Crouching beside the tub, Jongin gazes in dumbfounded wonder at the blissfully paddling terrapins. “I leave you home alone for one day!”

“My options were limited: I could’ve gone for a walk—which the doctor did say I could do, remember, so don't get mad—and found turtles or called a repairman to the house and let out all my neglected househusband frustrations.”

Jongin snorts softly and dips his hand into the water. The turtles scatter but turn to watch him curiously. He's not mad, per se, but he's definitely frustrated and confused, although this really is just like Sehun."You know our landlord doesn't allow us to have pets, right?"

"No, they allow small pets!" Sehun replies dismissively. He chuckles as the aquatic reptiles stretch their necks out to snatch the floating shrimp he shakes into the tub. Nice to see he was so prepared but couldn’t text his live-in-boyfriend-who-shares-the-same-bathroom about the situation.

"No matter how small the turtle is, I don't think she'll allow us to have...one, two three, four—fifteen." With a sigh, Jongin falls back on his and stares at Sehun. “Babe...why? We can’t keep them.”
