My friends came over an evening to eat with us. I noticed that my hybrids didn’t seem to like it so much. Before my friends arrived, they started complaining. 

“Why must they come here?” Chanhee whined who’s foot now healed.

“I don’t want them here”, Sangyeon said. 

“I won’t be nice to them”, Juyeon pouted. 

In the end, I couldn't take them anymore. 

“Okay, the next one that complains doesn’t get any food. You should complain to someone that cares about them”, I said. “Go on then. No?”

None of them dared to speak. 

“That’s what I thought”, I said. “I want you to behave tonight. If I hear or see you being assholes there will be serious consequences.”

“Why do we need to be nice to them, Y/N?” Kevin asked with his arms crossed. “They aren’t our owners.”

“But your owner tells you to do it. I mean it. No food.”

I could tell that they didn’t like that.

My friends came and we started eating. My hybrids didn’t talk much with my friends, they were talking with each other or with me. They didn’t even try to involve my friends. I wasn’t happy about it and they would get killed when my friends had gone home. WHen they had left, I turned to the hybrids that didn’t seem ashamed. 

“You have to be joking, right?” I asked. 

“What?” Changmin asked. “We were nice!”

“You didn’t even try to talk to them…”

“Are you mad?” Chanhee asked quietly. 

“No...I’m just disappointed…”

“That’s even worse”, Younghoon whispered.

“I’m...I’m just going to go to bed. I’ll see you tomorrow, guys. Goodnight, sleep well.”

I felt like crying. 

“What are we going to do?” Changmin asked quietly as we saw Y/N walking inside the house. “She’s upset with us.”

“Okay, okay, stop it”, Juyeon said and gathered everyone in a circle. “We need to come up with something. Who’s the one that Y/N would forgive firstly?”

“Jacob, probably”, Sunwoo said. 

“Should I try?” I asked. 

“Yes, you should.”

“I’ll just wait a little until she’s calmer.”

A while later, I walked into the house and to Y/N’s room. She was lying in her bed, silently crying. My heart broke at the sight. She hadn’t noticed me yet but when she did, she nearly got a heart attack. 

“For God’s sake, Jacob!” she said and breathed out, leaning her head back into the pillows. 

“I just wanted to say that we’re sorry for hurting your feelings. It was not our intention…”

“Then what was it?”

“I-I…”, her tone and stare got me so nervous. “We just felt a little jealous I guess…”

She changed completely after I said that, she laid down on her back and patted on the bed beside her. I sat down and sighed in nervousness. 

“Why were you jealous?” she asked softly, probably noticing my fear. 

“We were afraid that you wouldn’t give us any attention...I’m sorry, Y/N.”

She sighed and took my hand. “It’s okay.”

Is it though? I wish we were better than this.
