When Liam's phone began to ring, Kai had already fallen fast asleep. He smiled. He knew the blonde needed the rest.
Instead of answering it in the bedroom, Liam went to the living area. He took a seat on the couch, then answered.
"Where did you guys go? Dinner is ready," Mika said over the phone.
"We had to leave," Liam groaned, running his fingers through his hair.
"W-What? Why?" Mika asked, her voice filled with concern.
"Makoto..."
Just saying the name made his blood boil. He never wanted to say it again. He wouldn't say it again.
"What happened?"
"I don't think it's my place to say," Liam sighed. "You'll have to press Kai about that one."
"So, you guys aren't joining us for dinner, are you?" Mika asked.
"No."
"Good," Mika laughed.
"Good?"
"I'll gather a bunch of food and head over there with Michael."
"Really?"
