Forgiveness.
CheckMate.“Forgiveness is the final form of love.”

Sehun’s eyes widened at the impact. I ran towards it and tried to switch it on. The power light came on but the screen remained blank. The only solace was the screen had not cracked. “Mia! I’m so sorry! I don’t mean to do it.. I’m so—“Sehun said on the verge of tears. “It’s okay, Sehun.” I replied, my tone hard. He just returned to his room without another word while I checked the BIOS to check if it did not get set to hibernate.
Nope. I was beyond pissed and it took all the restrain I had to not punch a wall or break a few things. “Do you have a set of tools here?” I hurriedly asked Suho. “I think Kris does. I don’t know where he keeps it though. Sorry..” he said. I knew he was apologizing for what happened. “It’s not your fault anyway..” I shrugged.
I left to look for Kris. They were just returning back from practice. “Do you have a set of tools I could borrow? ”I asked Kris, to bothering to acknowledge the others. “I do, come I’ll give it to you.” he said. He handed me the tools and I set them out so that I could start work. I could hear Baekhyun telling the rest about the accident. “Mia, come have dinner.” D.O. said.
“Don’t want any..” I answered him without glancing up. “You will get up and follow me if you don’t want me to scream your ear off.” he threatened. I followed him reluctantly. ‘If he shouts at me, I'll just punch him and that won’t do.’ I reasoned with myself. Just as we were about to start, Luhan spoke. “Where’s Sehun?” he asked.
“He said he does not want any dinner. I tried coaxing him out but it didn’t work.” Suho sighed. “I’ll go talk to him.” Luhan offered. Suho nodded at him. Silence followed and we waited for him to be back. I tapped my foot impatiently. Finally Luhan came back. “He was really adamant about not eating.” he sighed. I released an audible groan. “I’ll go talk to him.”I sighed.
I filled a plate with food and headed towards his room. ‘Calm down. Relax. It was a mistake. An accident. Accidents are unprecedented occurrences that cause damage remember? Now go.’ I gave myself a pep talk as I paused at the door. “Oppa?” I called out into the dark. No response. I switched on the lights to find Sehun curled into a ball at the far end of his single bed. I sat down on his bed.
“You know I have a younger brother. He keeps breaking my things.” I grumbled. “Do you hate him for that?” he asked. “I get really annoyed. Then again, at the end of that day I can’t hate him. He’s my brother. I love him.” I whispered. ‘Oh Sehun you remind me so much of Josh. The same naïve eyes and the same innocent laugh.’ I thought to myself.
Sehun’s face brightened and he sat up a little. “For you it’s different. You’re my oppa!” I whined. “So you hate me!?” he panicked. “Umm..” I pretended to think. I took a spoon of rice and pretended to eat it. Before I opened my mouth, I paused offering it to him.
He readily accepted. “I don’t hate you.. but I won’t forgive you either.” I faced away from him. “Not unless you treat me to bubble tea.” I laughed. “I will! Now give me food.” he said opening his mouth for more.”You’re forgiven then. Please be careful next time okay?” I said and ruffled his hair. “You’re more like my noona than my dongy.” he pouted. I just rolled my eyes at him.
We finished the food together and Sehun lay down. I switched off the lights and headed outside. Suho was waiting for me to come out so that he could retire for the night. Everyone else had already done so. I picked up the laptop and tools and headed to the table. I checked to see if the battery was still in place. It was. I groaned and rubbed my face. “You know you should be an actress.." a voice said causing me to flinch.
