Everyone gathered in the kitchen for breakfast.

- it's mine. Why do you take it? Give it back to me!_ Mason exclaimed when his bread was taken by his twin.

- No, it's mine._ Mavin put his tongue out, which made Mason became anger. he started to leave his place and run after the other.

- Give it back.

- No.

- Mavin, give it back to him._ Soyeon said with serious voice, which made Mavin scared and be about to cry.

- Come here, Mavin._ Hyomin smiled at the boy and Qri noticed that. She wonderefd why Hyomin didn't smile at her like that._You shouldn't do that because it's not yours. If you want it, you have to ask first, understand?

- Yes, I understand._ Mavin tured to Mason._ I'm sorry.

- It's ok.

- Mavin, come here._ Soyeon kneeled down in front of her son and hugged him__ Don't do that next time, ok?

Mavin nodded his head.

Qri observed everything without saying anything. She just enjoyed the breakfast that Soyeon made. Then the bell rang..

- It must be Jiyeon.

- Let me._ Soyeon came out to open the door.

- Who's JIyeon?_ Finally, Qri spoke.
