There was a soft glowing of light coming from outside when the Princes and Angels woke up. Grumbles of sleepy protest came from all around. Kai blocked a pillow over his face when he felt Sehun try to shake him awake. Xiumin pulled the covers over his face sleepily and rolled over to the dark side of the room. Kris growled when Lay and Chen tried to pull him up.    “Time to wake up my brothers,” Suho called naturally; his voice and body had long grown accustomed to early mornings. Baekhyun rubbed his eyes tiredly and yawned. D.O sat up and stretched as he rotated his neck from side to side.    Chanyeol curled closer to Kai, slightly annoyed with the commotion in the morning. “I’m not going anywhere.” He yawned, his voice thick with sleep. The room was still dark, and he took the opportunity to allow the drowsy darkness to lull him back to sleep. “I’m... going to stay... right here.”    Suho smiled softly and placed his heads on his hips. “Hey, you boys were the ones who devised the plan. Don’t back out now. It’s too late.”    Suho laughed when he heard the groans from all around the room.    Last night, after the blundering fail dinner, you had trudged up into your room and bid the boys an early good night. Judging by the mix of emotion on your strained face, the boys assumed you were embarrassed and slightly upset with what your father said. Since your father stormed up the stairs, you were cut short with whatever you wanted to express to them last night.    Since you’re with the boys all the time, but rarely get to see your parents, Baekhyun was the one to suggest the idea to have your parents have a day off so they could spend it with YOU, while the boys went and took care of Angel Mart for the day. They had learned how to open and closed the store, how to check the till, how to water the products properly, and how to stock the items. They learned everything as if they were long term employees. Might as well make use of such knowledge and pass it down and train their brothers about the human life here.    The boys thought it was a splendid idea and agreed to it whole heartedly. Chanyeol and Kai were the most eager ones.   But now that it’s morning.... it was a whole different story. Without warning, someone flicked on the lights in the room. The whole room lit up with brightness.   “GAH! THE LIGHT!” Xiumin hissed and burrowed even deeper into his sheets like a vampire hiding from the sunlight. Chanyeol groaned even louder. Luhan instantly jolted awake as if his body was eletrocuted.    “Get up, hyungs. If I can do it for Goddess, you can too~” Tao chimed as he hopped off his bed.   *Argh. Why did I have to love you so much, Maiden?* The sleepy boys all thought. Sighing, they all stood up and trudged into the washroom like Zombies.    Although they tried their best to stay quiet, it didn’t help when you had an angry bird as a duizhang, a grumpy baozi as a hyung and maknaes who loved sleep—aside from you—more than anything in the world. There were a few bumps and groans, a quiet quarrel and few doors being slammed here and there.    Suho was the first one to get dressed. He knocked on your parent’s room briskly. After a pause, he heard footsteps trudging to the door. The knob twisted open, and out came a very sleepy omonim.    Suho bowed in greeting with his trademark Prince Charming smile. “Good morning.”   Your mother who was still half asleep eyed Suho. She looked at him up and down in surprise and then yawned. “Suho, it’s not even 6 yet. Where are you going?”    “Omonim, today you and,” Suho wasn’t comfortable with calling your father abonim so he stuck with...    “Ahjussi can stay home. My brothers and I will help you two take care of Angel Mart.”   That woke your mother up. Her eyes widened as big as saucers and she looked at Suho, startled. “Suho! Of course not. I can’t have you—”   “Omonim. It’s okay. Take the day off, you and ahjussi deserve it. It’s time you and Maiden get to spend time together, don’t you think?”    Your mother stared into his kind and genuine eyes for a moment before a smile played on her lips as well. She disappeared behind the door but quickly returned. She handed him a pair of keys then dishevelled his hair.    “I can trust you right, Suho?” Your mother asked him, though she was not concerned at all.   A beam arose on his face and he nodded diligently. “Yes, omonim. I promise you we will take extra precautions today at the store. We’ll train our brothers and make sure no mistakes will be made and the customers will be satisfied.”    A warm smile appeared on your mother’s face. “It’s not the store I’m worried about.” She looked around and saw the coast was empty. She quietly whispered. “Did you warn your brothers about the mob of women that surrounds the store everyday?”    Suho laughed, a glint of mischief sparkled in his eyes. “Don’t worry about the boys, they can take care of themselves. I hope.”    “Suho...”   He chuckled, but the love spilled out of his eyes as he spoke. “Maiden has been looking forward to a day like this for a very long time, omonim. Erase all the worries in your head and enjoy yourselves for once.”    She looked into Suho’s warm eyes before the wrinkles near her eyes became more conspicuous as her lips curled into a smile. She patted his cheeks the way a mother would to her precious son. “Suho, you are a very good person. I hope nothing but the best for you twelve.”    ---   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MPYQ7a8dsBc   A waft of sizzling bacon and freshly brewed coffee awakened your senses. There was laughter from downstairs, but it wasn’t the manly, low laughters you were so used to hearing.    Your eyes flew open. You inhaled the morning scent that shrouded your room as it mingled along with the scent of food and coffee from downstairs. You yawned as you crawled off your bed. Your body felt a bit sore from the tumble yesterday and the fact that you had slept so long didn’t really help ease the stressed muscles either.    You came out of your room, expecting to be greeted with a cheerful, friendly face from one of the boys, but to your surprise, the hall and even their room was hollow and empty. The house was quieter than usual as well. Still half asleep, you shook it off and went into the washroom to wash up.   ---   You skipped down the stairs, in an unusual good mood despite what happened the night prior. You hopped off 3 steps, and landed on the floor gracefully. You smiled and entered the kitchen. “GOOD MORNING GU—”   You breath cut off sharply. You stared dumbfounded at the two people. “Mom? Dad?”   They were sitting at the table with a cup of coffee in their hands. Your Dad was still fuming about last night while your mother waved you over. You glanced around warily, noting that none of the boys are here. *Is this a dream or what.....?* The colours drained out of your face.   You gulped. *OH MY GOD WHAT IF MY DAD KICKED THEM ALL OUT?*    Without saying a word, you sat down right next to your mother. “Morning my angel.” She smiled and pressed a kiss on your temple.    You blinked, baffled. “Uh, morning.” Your eyes flickered back and forth between her and your father. He was jabbing at his food with a scowl on his face.    You opened your mouth to speak but your mother pushed the plate that was in front of her to you. Your eyes widened. “Mom, no. That’s your bre—”   “Oh no, I ate already honey. This ones for you.” She smiled and held the cup of coffee to her lips.   You stared at her. “How did you know I would wake up....?”   She chuckled. Your father scoffed, though the warmth was in his eyes. “Come on, give your parents a little more credit. Do you think we can forget that our angel always wakes up to the smell of bacon?”    You stared at him, feeling your lips quirk up slightly. The embarrassment from last night subsided. “Great, thanks for making me feel like such a pig.” You rolled your eyes, but began eating. Your father hid the smile that formed on his face as he hung his head low to eat. Although Kris, D.O and Suho were amazing cooks, it never compared to your mother’s.    The crispiness of the bacon oozed in your mouth with juiciness. It was still warm and as tasty as ever. “Thank you for the food.” You said. As you ate, your parents sat there in their seat, and observed you eat. Tender smiles both appearing on their faces as they watch the food disappear off your plate.   When you felt that the atmosphere had turned tranquil, and the chirps from the birds outside were soft notes, you cleared your throat and sat up. “Um, so... I noticed the boys aren’t here.... Where did they go?” You casually asked.    Your mother sat up and cleared . You father quickly shuffled upwards and threw his dish into the sink.   Your eyes widened into horror. “You guys... didn’t.... kick them out did you?!” Although you tried to mask your panic, your father clearly heard it.   He started barking with laughter and then stopped cold and narrowed his eyes. “Trust me, I wish we could.”   You gaped at him.    “Honey,” your mother eyed your father with a sidelong look before her expression softened and sh
