"I hate her." Hyeri said angrily as she plopped down on her bed.

"It could have been worse," Jungkook stated, trying to lift her mood up.

"Why is she always there when you're out? Is she stalking me?"

"Is she a rude woman?" Jungkook asked, trying to picture her in his mind.

"Of course! Well, this is the first time she'd used an attitude towards me, but I've heard many negative comments about her."
Jungkook frowned and flied towards the bed, sitting close to Hyeri's head.

"Why does this sound familiar?" He said, thoughtfully poking Hyeri's sprawled out hair on the bedsheet.

"Hm?"

"I'm not saying it might be, or it should be, but it sounds like my mother." He said. "She did say she worked in a school..."

"What!? No. She is not your mother. She's too rude and she doesn't even look like you. I think. And just because she said she works in a school doesn't mean miss Myo is your mother."

"It might be..."

"What's your last name? It's not Myo, right?"

"No...it's Jeon."

"Then it's not her." Hyeri concluded.

"She might be using a fake name," Jungkook said, afraid of what his assumptions are leading to. Hyeri shut her mouth after his last comment, the thought of the teacher using an alias making sense to her.

"We still can't assume stuff. You need to see her first." Hyeri said, turning her head to get a clear view of the little fairy next to her. "But I'm quite sure she's not your...mother." She said, filling the last word with disbelief.

"Hm, okay." Jungkook said. He casually motioned his finger to the ceiling, pointing at the small chandelier. In a matter of seconds, the light shone rays of purple hues, lightly colouring the room with its shades.

"Woah," Hyeri breathed as she sat up and looked around the room with amazement.

"It would look better at night." Jungkook said as he turned off the light. "I'm hungry."

-------------------------------------------------------------

"I don't think you can go out peacefully in this state." Hyeri said, pitifully eyeing the fairy fiddling with the TV remote.

"Yeah, we've said that a million times, so I'm aware of it." He said quietly as he turned the TV on. "I really want to go back to human form."

Hyeri looked at his blank expression before passing a snack to him. "Have a cookie."

"Thanks."
A few silent minutes went by as the two stared blackly at the TV screen, not interested into whatever it was showing.

"Does your mum work even on Saturdays?" Jungkook suddenly tore the silence apart.

"Yeah, she's free only on Sundays."

"Do you think...she would understand my situatio-"

"No. She would freak out." Hyeri said without hesitation.

"You know...I think my mother is the only who knows how to break free from this frustrating spell," he said, crawling on top of Hyeri's thigh.

"Makes sense. She did cast the spell on you, so she should know the reverse spell." Hyeri said, caressing his soft hair with her finger. "What are you going to do when you go back to human form?"

A few seconds of silence separated them. "I don't know."

"You said that you were separated from your sisters, do you remember how they look like?"

"Of course, my mother didn't keep us completely away from each other, we just weren't allowed to hang out." He sighed sadly.

Hyeri grimaced in pity and disgust. How can a mother not like her child just because she wanted a girl?
She tried to not lose her patience and kept calm, remembering something from what Jungkook had said earlier about using magic wrongly.

"...Won't she get punished?" Hyeri asked, making Jungkook look up in wonder. "You said casting dangerous spells will bring punishment."

"You're right..." He parted his lips in deep thought. "If only I could get my sisters for help..."
