~정답은 들리지 않아 ~

༄ ༄ ༄

Sungho:

It had been a couple of days since you and Sungho went on your little ‘break.’ To say it was driving you crazy was an understatement. You were losing it, not being with him and in his arms. And he wasn’t doing any better. 

He felt so bad, so guilty for ever making you feel that way and for making you seem like you couldn’t tell him when you were going out or about your day. He hated how jealous he got. He hadn’t eaten for days. He barely showered and let the apartment get dirty. Dishes in the sink for when he would get a little snack, clothes thrown about in rage that he never picked up. Even shattered glass from the vase he broke out of anger after you had left. He was a mess.

You tried to do activities to help take your mind off of things, off of him. You went out with your family, with your friends, but the only thing on your mind at all times was him. You were starting to think that you made a mistake. About a week and a half after your break, you decided to text him, asking if you could come over to the apartment. You hadn’t gone back, even though you said you would to get your stuff. You were nervous sending the message, but relieved when Sungho’s response came almost immediately, a big ‘YES’ in all caps lighting up your screen and making you smile. You didn’t know if you were making a mistake but you needed to see Sungho again, even if it was for the last time. 

You arrived at the apartment later that day, surprised to find it spotless, with a nervous Sungho sitting on the couch waiting for you. The second he had received your text, he jumped into action, cleaning as fast as he could, throwing away the garbage and hurrying to the shower. Upon hearing your keys turn he flinched, nerves going crazy. You walked in, and he swears he fell in love all over again, regret and sorry washing over him as he took in your tired eyes and pale skin.

“Oh I’m sorry, I should’ve knocked…”

You say awkwardly, feeling bad for thinking you could just walk in like it was still your apartment, even though it was. 

“You still live here too… I think? So it's fine…” 

It's painfully awkward, you both finding it hard to relax around each other after being away for a bit. You close the door behind you before taking a seat on the opposite side of the couch from him. Silence eats away at the both of you for a minute before Sungho decides to speak up, breaking the tension.

“I just want to apologize to you first, Y/N. This last week has been so miserable, and I can only imagine how you’ve felt, especially after the way we left things… I’m really sorry.”

Your heart broke at the sight of him apologizing and seeing the tears that formed in his eyes. 

“Thank you, Sungho. I’m not gonna lie, I was also miserable. I was so angry at you for always getting upset and jealous whenever I’d go to work events or hang out with my friends because there was a guy there.”

His head hangs low, unable to face you as he’s ashamed of his actions. 

“But more than my anger, I’ve missed you Sungho. And I may be stupid for admitting that to you but it's true. All I can think about is being back here with you, in our house and in your arms. This last week has been killing me.”

He’s looking into your eyes now, feeling guilty for how he made you feel but also happy to hear that you missed him and want to be back with him.

“Then come back, please. I haven’t gone anywhere and I don’t want to. We belong together Y/N and I want nothing more than to be with you.”

You were holding back tears, your voice choking up on your next words.

“But Sungho… I still have my job and my friends. And some of them are men. I need to know that you won’t get mad or jealous when I’m out with them, especially because none of them want me, we’re all just friends. I need to know that you trust me”

“I promise, Y/N. I don’t know what got into me to think that you weren’t loyal or trustworthy. I am so, so, so sorry for ever being that way. Please, please come back to me and let me show you how sorry I am. And let me make it up to you.”

You could see it in his eyes that he was genuine, that he meant every word that was coming out of his mouth. You couldn’t help but fold, jumping into his lap and giving him a kiss, one that caught him off guard but that he welcomed with open arms, eyes closing as he melted into the kiss. 

All the pent up roller coaster of feelings from the past week and half, the anger, the jealousy, the rage, as well as all the love you could muster, poured into your kiss, growing needier by the second. By the end of it, you both pull away, panting and slightly sweaty, foreheads resting on each other as you both adorn a big cheesy smile on your faces. 

“Thank you so much for taking me back Y/N… I love you so much.”

You smile and kiss him again, hands entangling themselves in his hair. 

“I love you too Sungho… don't be a doofus again.”

You both laugh as he pulls you back in for another kiss, so relieved that you had come back to him.

Riwoo:

It has been about a month since you broke up with Sanghyeok. You stayed true to your word, not going back to him. But you couldn’t say that you were handling it the best. The breakup was still pretty fresh and part of you thinks it was the manipulation that got to you, but part of you thinks that even through the manipulation, you truly did love Sanghyeok at one point, and dealing with that loss was hard. But you kept reminding yourself of why you left in the first place, finally being able to hang out with your friends, wearing and doing whatever you wanted.

You were going out to the club tonight with a couple of your friends to celebrate one of their birthdays and you were excited to say the least. You missed partying and going out, and tonight was just the pick me up that you needed. What you weren't expecting was Sanghyeok to be there. 

You had gotten ready like you normally would, slightly heeled boots, a sequin crop top and shorts that left very little to the imagination– perfect club attire. You did your makeup light, anticipating to sweat most of it off anyways. Upon arriving at the club, you and your friends order a couple of drinks. You all start feeling it a bit, heading out to the dance floor and having fun. 

When you decide to stop and take a break, you have a seat at the bar, catching your breath and getting a cup of water. You don't expect someone to sit next to you, not that you minded but it caught you off guard. You look at the stranger, orange hair standing out to you. When he turns to order, you’re more than shocked, dropping your glass onto the counter. 

“Sanghyeok?”

He turns to you, a look of shock on his face as well. 

“Y/N?”

“You dyed your hair?”

You’re still taking it in, the stark contrast from his previously brown to now burnt orange hair. 

“Umm yeah I did. I figured I could use a change after we… you know.”

Seeing him again, with his new hair now too, the rush of feelings you spent so hard trying to fight off were coming back, much to your dismay. 

“Oh yeah well… it looks good,”

You couldn’t tell if it was the alcohol that made you blurt that out, or your true feelings. Either way, you cursed yourself for complimenting him. What if he knows you still want him and uses it as a chance to manipulate you again?

“Thanks,”

His genuine smile to your accidental compliment was killer. He somehow managed to get more attractive in the month you had spent apart. You ordered another drink –a shot this time– thinking that you’d need it for the rest of the night. 

“So what brings you here anyways? I thought you didn’t like going out, especially not to clubs.”

“It’s Jaehyun’s birthday today. You know how he gets.”

You had completely forgotten about his birthday. You felt bad, but then again, he was your ex-boyfriend’s friend, not yours, so it shouldn’t matter to you anyways.

“Oh same, it’s F/N’s birthday today too. If I see Jaehyun around I’ll wish him a happy birthday.”

The air was tense and felt awkward. 

“Well, I’m gonna go back out there, celebrate a bit more.”

You say, hopping off the bar stool and heading back to your friends, trying to shake off the encounter. 

You’re pretty drunk at this point, dancing a little wild as you and your friends let loose. Constantly bumping into people, you were used to the little touches on your shoulder or waist of people trying to get by, not minding it anymore. But you were confused when you felt a pair of hands on your hips, whipping your head towards the stranger, fists balled and ready to swing.

“Sanghyeok? Why are you holding me?”

You put your fist down, but you can tell by the unwavering smile on his face that he was drunk as well. 

“I missed the way your hips would move on me. I forgot how good you were at dancing…”

It was kind of hard to hear him over the music, but you got it, turning around to face him as his hands now rested on your waist. You weren’t expecting him to do this, but you chalked it up to him just being drunk and not being able to control his impulses. And you justify your next actions based on the same premise: you’re too drunk to control your impulses.

The way the lights were flashing in your faces, you could clearly take his features in. His eyes, his nose, his lips. The things you missed about him the most. You may regret this in the morning, but how would you know if you didn’t try? You lean into him and his touch, but you don’t kiss him. You broke up with him so you couldn’t be the one to initiate it. But if he did, you could justify it to yourself. As if he read your mind, he leans in, closing the gap between you two. You sway your hips to the beat, as does he, never breaking the kiss as you let your inhibitions go and the kiss continues. He breaks away first, leaning into your ear to whisper:

“I know we broke up but… we should really continue things elsewhere. I’ve missed you and I really think we should talk.”

You bite your lip. You knew where this was headed. Maybe you’d talk, but you wanted to see where things would go. 

“Sure, let’s go.”

༄ ༄ ༄

Jaehyun:

The weeks following your breakup was hard. Obviously, you loved his group and their music, even having albums and photocards of theirs. Always hearing about them and their growing fame made it harder for you to move on. You would see him everywhere, billboards, magazines, when you open up your phone to scroll through twitter. It’s like you couldn’t escape him. Of course you were proud and happy for him and the other boys that they were finally getting more recognition. But to you, it was at your expense. The expense of your happiness. But it was also hard on Jaehyun.

The more famous he and the boys got, the harder he’d have to try to conceal his true feelings, how dead he felt on the inside. The constant work, learning new dances, creating new songs, going on shows all while leading the group, was getting to be too much for him. He would spend days locked in his studio, barely sleeping and running on very little fumes, often pounding back energy drink after energy drink just to sustain himself for his other MC job. He was starting to feel burnt out, so much so to the point that he was getting sick. 

You were casually scrolling on twitter one afternoon, like you normally do when you saw the headline: “BOYNEXTDOOR’s Jaehyun to Put a Halt on Recent Activities Due to Sickness.” You shot up from your laid down position on the couch, double checking that you read the caption correctly. You had only been broken up for three weeks and seeing this headline made you worry that he was overworking himself this much. Putting your pride aside, you text Sungho, asking about Jaehyun’s condition. When he tells you that he's not doing well, you ask if you could come see him, but to not tell him that you were coming. He agreed and you were on your way to the dorm with soup and cough medicine. 

Upon arriving at the dorms, you were surprised when Leehan opened the door. You were nervous at first, but he reassured you that Sungho told him about your plan and let you in. You smiled, relieved and left the cough syrup on the counter before entering the room. You walk into his back facing you, a perfect set up. 

“Taesan, who was at the door? The upperz don’t knock so who's here right now?”

“I told you you work too much. Look at you, sick as a dog.”

You bite back laughter as he whips his body over so fast to see you. You thought cracking a joke would be a cute way to announce your arrival, especially after not seeing him for three weeks and to keep the mood light, but the tears welling up in his eyes said otherwise. 

“W-what are you doing here…?”

His sniffles only got worse as the tears started to fall from his eyes, grabbing a handful of tissues to relieve his sinuses. You quickly put the soup down on the nightstand, rushing over to him to give him some water. 

“I read a news article saying that you were sick so I wanted to come over to make sure you were okay. You haven’t gotten sick like this, where you can’t even work, in so long.”

He was awestruck at your confession but confused regardless.

“But you broke up with me… so why are you here trying to take care of me?” 

You look down and smile, mostly to avoid crying at the pent up emotions you still carried since breaking up with him that day. 

“I broke up with you because I couldn’t see you. I never stopped caring about you. Plus, I could get to see you now, even if you aren’t feeling well.” 

“So you don’t hate my guts, even though I so stupidly put work before you?”

You look up at him and laugh, teary eyes matching his own as you take his hands in yours. 

“I never hated you, Jaehyun. I was just so frustrated that you decided to spend your only day off with the people you see everyday, and not with me. I just didn’t know how to handle myself and I snapped. I’m sorry, I never meant to make things harder for you, I just let my emotions take over.”

His smile contrasted the tears. He wanted nothing more than to kiss you right now, but he didn’t want to risk getting you sick as well. 

“I’m sorry for not paying attention to you and your needs. I was so tired and frustrated. I should’ve spent that time with you and I realize that now. I didn’t realize how much I worked, and it became even worse when you left me. I’ve barely slept or eaten, no wonder I got sick.”

You take his face in your hands, cupping his cheeks as you stare into his eyes. 

“I’m sorry for not giving you the space you needed. I know how stressed you are and how much everyone relies on you and I shouldn't have snapped at you like that.  Can you forgive me?”

He smiles and nods, and you smile back, leaning in to kiss him.

“Woah wait. I can’t kiss you. You’re gonna get sick too!”

He yells, covering his mouth with the blanket to prevent you from kissing him. 

“So what if I get sick. That just means I get to spend more time with you, right? Sungho can take care of both of us.”

He laughs as he drops the blanket on his lap, letting you kiss him, finally starting to feel a little bit better. 

༄ ༄ ༄

Taesan:

It had been about a year since you broke up with Dongmin. Life went on and you slowly started to forget about him. It was a long and quite difficult road for you, truthfully, but you were able to get over it with the help of your friends. You couldn’t say that the breakup didn’t still have an affect on you though, finding it very hard to find a partner who you could trust that they loved you completely, and not only when they had the time for it. 

You thought Dongmin had moved on as well. He seemed to be doing fine in all of his classes and you'd even heard a couple of rumors going around about him being with other girls. So you assumed that he was okay, and part of you still felt hurt thinking that he had moved on so quickly. But it was no longer your business, or something you’d let yourself think about for too long. 

The harsh reality for Dongmin though, was that he had not actually been doing so great. Sure, he was doing fine in school, and for a while, he was fine without you. But recently, he couldn’t help but miss the way you would always come with him to practice. Any new girl he went out with wouldn't spend as much time as you did with him. Part of him believed that he just missed having company, just wanting someone there with him to fill the empty space of the solo practice room. But the more time passed, he realized it was your company that he missed. 

He would get scolded almost everyday during practice for not being focused. He thought that being with other girls would help him get over you. Even though he acted strangely cold towards you on the day of the breakup, he had reflected a lot about it, feeling really guilty for the way he went about things. He wasn’t ready to be fully committed to you and you didn’t deserve that kind of treatment, but he knew he couldn’t tell you those things. He knew you wouldn’t give him the time of day to hear him out, and rightfully so considering the way he treated you. 

He was contemplating on whether or not he should text you but decided against it. Instead, he got to class early the next day, waiting for you to arrive so he could take the seat next to you. He figured that you couldn't ignore him if he was right next to you. 

Walking into the lecture hall, you take your usual seat in the middle row, sitting in the chair by the aisle so you could easily leave for your next class. He practically sprinted over to the chair next to you. You hadn’t realized someone took a seat next to you since you were pulling out your laptop. Upon getting situated, you flinch as you look over to see Dongmin’s gaze on you. 

“Jesus Christ, Dongmin? What the hell are you doing sitting next to me.”

“What a nice way to greet someone after not speaking for a year.”

“You don’t deserve a nice greeting now move or I will.”

You had no energy for his antics today. You had been busy studying for exams and involving yourself in clubs around campus, you couldn’t afford distractions. 

“Please Y/N, wait. Hear me out.”

You scoff, mouth agape at his ridiculous request. 

“You ice me out before we break up, not really giving me an explanation for anything and now you want me to hear you out? Fuck off, Dongmin.”

Your words are harsh but deserved. You start packing up your things, getting ready to move away from him. He stops you, grabbing your arm lightly as you look up at him, the pleading look in his eyes almost making you want to fold. 

“Please, can we just talk outside for a sec? It’ll be fast, I promise.”

You huff, yanking your arm away from his grip and standing up angrily. If you weren’t in public, you would’ve stomped your way out. He eagerly got up to follow. 

“You have until class starts. What?”

“Y/N, I just want to start off by apologizing. I took a lot of time to think things over about us and the way we left things and I feel more and more guilty for the way I treated you.”

“And it took a year for you to come to that conclusion? You never once reached out to me or apologized so why now? The last girl you had on your dick didn’t want you anymore because she realized what an asshole you are?” 

You didn’t want to sound so rude, but all the emotions from the breakup came bubbling back up. You could see the hurt look in his eyes but you couldn’t let yourself fall so quickly. You needed him to see how badly he hurt you.

“I was stupid. I still am. But I can’t focus during practice. There were other girls, I will admit that. But they’re not you. I didn’t like any of them as much as I liked you and I don’t know why I acted the way I did towards you before. I was just stupid and couldn’t handle the pressure of everything at once. I realized how good you were and how much happier I was with you. I don’t deserve you or your presence but I needed to at least apologize. I miss you and I still care about you and I would do whatever it takes to gain your forgiveness.”

Hearing his genuine apology and watching as his head hung lower and lower was breaking you. He was actually being so kind and serious, but you were still skeptical of it all, and rightfully so. Biting your lip, you hold off on your reply, contemplating whether or not you should forgive him. He looks up at you, defeated. Taking your silence for an answer, he looks away, attempting to walk away before you grab him.

“Dongmin, wait. I accept your apology. But it will take a lot more than that to gain my trust and forgiveness.”

“Anything! I will do anything if that means you’ll give me another chance!”

He swears this is the first time he’s smiled in weeks. He experimentally holds your hands in his, relaxing a bit when you don’t pull away. You try hard to bite back a smile. This was all you’ve wanted all along, but he was going to have to work for it. 

Thank you, Y/N. I won’t disappoint you again.”

Leehan:

A semester had passed since ending your friends-with-benefits relationship with Donghyun. Even though he was president of the aqua life club, and you had meetings regularly, you opted to avoid him as much as possible within the meetings. The only times you would speak to him would only be if you had a question or if he needed you to do something for the club. 

Because everyone in the club knew that there was something going on between the two of you before, they could easily sense the tension in meetings following your ‘break up.’ Of course, he didn’t address it. Partly because it would be unprofessional to do so, but also because he didn’t want to put your guys’ business out there. But even though a new semester had started, Donghyun still kept getting asked questions about your relationship, specifically from his friends. 

At first, he didn’t think that he had done anything wrong. But after being constantly harassed by his friends about the way he handled things and even getting a few complaints from other aqua life members about how awkward club meetings were, he started to think that maybe he had done something wrong. 

You were getting ready to leave your class, remembering that you had a club meeting soon. You packed your things up, grabbed a cup of coffee from a nearby cafe, and made your way to the student center where all your club meetings were held. 

Seeing as no one was there yet, you assumed that you had just gotten there early and took a seat where you normally did. You looked up from your phone about 15 minutes later, when you heard the door open. In came Donghyun, but no one else. You decide not to say anything at first. Donghyun pulls out his laptop and is clicking away. The tension was suffocating, but you could take it anymore.

“Where’s everyone else? The meeting was supposed to start 5 minutes ago…”

He just looks up from his computer, a creepy smile adorning his face. 

“There is no meeting. I emailed you specifically because I wanted to talk to you, but you blocked my number.”

“So why did you wait 10 minutes to tell me that? You just wanted to waste my time again?”

“I wanted you to talk to me first, so I know you would actually be okay with speaking to me.”

“Well at least you have half a brain to know that I am not okay with speaking to you. Goodbye Donghyun.”

You got up quickly to leave but he beat you to the door, blocking your only way out.

“Y/N please, just let me talk to you.”

“I don't want to talk to you, now let me out!”

“I can wait here all day until you talk to me, you know I'm a very patient man.”

You give up, huffing and sitting back down to where you were sitting before. 

“What?”

“Oh, feisty are we?”

“Donghyun I’ll kill you.”

He laughs before sitting in the seat across from you. You knew he was normally silly like this to lighten up the mood. It was one of the reasons you started liking him in the first place. But right now, you hated that about him. How carefree and aloof he could be. 

“First of all, I want to say that everything I said that day, I didn’t mean. I just didn’t know how to phrase my answers and they came out sounding worse than I meant them to be.”

You avoid his gaze, not wanting to look at his face as you relive the words that he had said to you that day.

“I want to start by apologizing to you first. I realized how much of a dick move it was to take you out on dates if I had never planned to date you at the time and I can see how I was sending you mixed signals. And to clarify, I didn’t mean it would be weird if I dated you. I don’t even know why I said that because it's simply just not true. You’re a wonderful person and anyone would be lucky to show you off.”

You look back at him, gaze softening at his kind words. 

“I’m really sorry for hurting you and treating you like that. I really miss you, and not the sex. I mean, I miss that too, but I mainly miss you and your presence. You’re so fun and funny and easy to talk to. And you’re the only person I hung out with that actually cared about fish. I think I didn’t realize the way I actually felt about you until after that night. I do like you, and in more than a friends-with-benefits way but I was scared to admit to those feelings because I was afraid of what might happen. I’m telling you now because it's eating away at me. I totally understand if you want nothing to do with me but I had to let you know now.”

He looks at you, biting his lip as his face shifts from a small smile to one full of nervousness, the little glint in his eyes boaring into yours. The words he’s saying, you’ve been wanting to hear them for so long. You couldn’t lie, you still liked him. You wanted to give him another chance to redeem himself and let yourself enjoy him again. Having so many meetings go by and not being able to talk to him so casually anymore, it hurt you still. Your silence was killing him, but he stayed, waiting for your response. 

“Thank you for the apology, I really appreciate it. I can’t say that I haven't missed you. I want to give you another chance… but I'm scared.”

He reaches across the table, tapping your hands, wanting to hold them. You hesitate, but open them up, placing your hands in his palms. His smile makes your falter, nerves rising as he rubs the backs of your hands with his thumbs.

“I understand. But if you let me, I will prove to you that I like you. I promise, I will not hurt you again. We don’t even have to have sex until you feel like you can trust me again.”

The big smile on your face held your answer. You squeeze his hands, laughing. 

“Sounds like a good idea to me.”

He lets go of your hands, walking around the table. He stands you up, caressing your cheek in his hands before dipping his head down to capture your lips in a sweet kiss. 

“Thank you for giving me another chance Y/N. I swear, you’ll never regret it.” (😉)

༄ ༄ ༄

Woonhak:

It had only been a week since your split with Woonhak. To say you’d been crying everyday was an understatement. You missed him so much. You felt bad for ending things but you felt even worse knowing that he thought you were the reason for his shortcomings when it came to being an artist. All of your friends that knew about your relationship had seen the toll it had taken on you to be away from him. The dark circles under your eyes, how pale your skin looked and just how your overall well being seemed to decline day by day. 

Woonhak felt so guilty. He would beat himself up for snapping and saying the wrong things. This argument with Taesan that day came to a halt, seeking comfort from the older member after he had heard the entire thing. Woonhak had even missed practice for a day, resulting in getting scolded heavily by his managers. 

Overall, it was a pretty shitty situation for the both of you. But Woonhak couldn’t stand knowing that he hurt you so bad. He still cared about you, he just over expressed his anger and frustration out on you. He spent days curating the perfect message to send to you— in hopes that you would read it of course. 

He even told his members who were in full support of his plans. They needed him to be better, for his own sake and the sake of the group. And you were still so heartbroken, you would run to him the moment the message flashed on your screen. You hadn’t even changed his contact name yet.

Baby Bear 🧸:

“Hey Y/N. I hope you see this and don’t block me immediately. I know how terrible I was to you and I’m sorry. I haven’t stopped crying and I’ve barely eaten. Can you believe it? Me, not eating? Haha anyways, I hope you’re doing better than I am. I didn’t get to apologize to you before so I’m doing it now. I would rather do this in person but I don’t want you to have to see me if you don’t want to. I would even understand if you never wanted to see my face again and if you stopped supporting my group. But I just want you to know that I still love you and I am so deeply, truly, sorry about the way I treated you and things I said to you. None of my anger was meant to be put on you and you didn’t deserve any of that. I wish I could take back my past actions, but I can’t. I hope you can heal from all the pain I’ve caused you. I love you.” 

You were struggling by the end of the message, tears flowing so crazy that you could barely see the screen. You had taken some time to read it, causing Woonhak to be on edge the whole time, waiting for your response. Having your read receipts on didn’t make it any better for him. He was shaking sending the message, clinging onto Jaehyun’s arm beside him. He was crying on his shoulder, praying that he’d receive a text from you. 

When your text never came, he sighed in defeat. He continued to cry for another 20 minutes on Jaehyun’s shoulders until he finally got up to wash his face. It was then that a knock on the door sounded through the living room. Jaehyun went to open it, shocked at the sight of you, tears flowing down your face and drenched from the rain outside. 

“Where’s Woonhak?” 

He pointed to the bathroom, stunned at your straightforwardness. You usually addressed him very nicely, though given the situation he excused you and let you in. You ran to the bathroom, knocking on it frantically until Woonhak opened the door. 

“I hate you so much.” 

You said, throwing your arms around the boy whose face was still very wet. Not that you cared considering you were drenched yourself. 

“Y/N, I’m so sorry I will never raise my voice at you ever again. I will never treat you like how I did before. You mean so much to me you’re really the love of my life and I can’t lose you again!”

He squeezed you so hard, it was hard to breathe. But you didn’t care. You stood there, held in his embrace for what felt like hours until he pulled away, face fresh with new tears. He was sniffling but his smile never faded, beyond elated to see you again. 

“You better not treat me like that again! I’ll have to kill you if you do!”

“You should kill me if I do that again.”

You both laugh, wiping your tears away. But you couldn’t help but shiver, the cold wetness finally setting onto your body. 

“Oh my god you’re drenched. Did you run through the rain to get here? Baby, you’re gonna get sick!” 

He sprung into action, running to grab you a towel. 

“Here! Take a shower. I’ll bring some clothes of mine for you!” 

You laugh at his eagerness, but you already feel a hundred times better, knowing that you have him back in your life. You grab him before he leaves again. He immediately finds his hands on your waist, you holding onto his arms. 

“Okay I’ll shower, but after, we need to talk about all this.” 

He nods, resting his forehead on yours. 

“Of course. I need to let you know how sorry I am and how much I love you. Seriously, I’m never gonna act that way ever again.” 

You place a soft kiss on his lips, melting into his touch. 

“Pinky promise?” 

You hold up your pinky, giggling as he locks his pinky with yours. 

“Pinky promise.”

Women’s History Meme || Mistresses (5/10) ↬ Subh of Córdoba (c. 940 – c. 999)

His great opportunity came in 967 when he was entrusted with the administration of the property settled by the caliph upon his favourite consort, Subh – another concubine of Christian and Navarrese origin, carried off a captive to Córdoba. From that moment Almanzor’s future was assured. As Subh’s protégé and, it was whispered, her lover, he rose rapidly to become one of the leading civil servants of al-Andalus. When the caliph al-Hakem II died in 976 his son by Subh, Hisham II, was aged only eleven. The regency which governed in his name was a triumvirate formed of al-Mushafi, the first minister of the late caliph; the leading military man of al-Andalus, the general Ghalib; and Almanzor — Moorish Spain by Richard Fletcher One of the most famous examples is Subh, the jarya of the caliph al-Hakam, one of the greatest Umayyad caliphs of the Muslim Empire in Spain. Subh was consumed by ambition. She had two major faults to answer for to the Muslims: she was a foreigner and a Christian. Obviously such things could take place without unrest only in Muslim Spain, that particularly open and cosmopolitan civilization. Subh is usually called by the historians Sabiha Malika Qurtuba, queen of Cordova, Sabiha being one of the diminutives from the root word sabah, dawn. Her original name was Aurora, which had to be Arabicized without misrepresenting it too much. But others said that the prince, entranced by the beauty of the foreigner, called her Subh because she had that amazing soft glow of the Mediterranean dawn. She was the wife of al-Hakam al-Mustansir, the ninth Umayyad caliph of the western branch which reigned in Spain with Cordova as its capital for almost three centuries (138/756 to 422/1031). — Forgotten Queens of Islam by Fatimah Mernissi

LUGAS AND RELEVANCY

the three relevant nekolugas, in order:

all three of these have a shot of getting a full review later on so this is just gonna be a quick run through

-lufalan pasalan at level 50 is a 720 range single target nuker with 20% chance to crit. it has 197100 damage per hit and 24233.61 dps. despite the obvious issues with its single target, it can work much better in later game in stages with less/no peons, stages where the peons can be easily cleared (with wavers/surgers), or metal stages where you can clear any metal peons with catyphoon and catasaurus. health is irrelevant; it's a luga, if it gets hit it dies. with talents, its crit chance increases to 30%, it gets surge resist and weaken immune for some unknown reason, and its dph and dps increase to 236520 and 29080.33 respectively. very strong unit, especially in lategame. can be described as a sort of ranged balrog. easily the best uber in the set.

-piccolan pasalan (level 30 because stats are irrelevant, it has 28.9 dps at level 60+70, no that's not a typo) is a 940 range area attack three second freeze + six second weaken to all traits + traitless with 16.43 tba (time between attacks). while this does give it a low uptime, the long freeze allows your units to get in and hit hard while they can. if enemies still manage to push, that just means that piccolan will be able to aoe freeze more of the field, making their push slower. no talents as of right now, but still a very solid CC unit.

-assassinlan pasalan is effectively cyberpunk without the blindspot. while its 1250 range without LD sounds broken in concept, its cooldown is much higher, it lacks the pierce that cyber's LD gives it, its tba is higher, and it cannot be stacked in the same way cyberpunk can because it will always hit the peons you would use to stack cyberpunk. however, its standing range is higher, its lack of a blindspot means if it gets pushed it can still slow, and through talents it gains the same slow time and 100% survive as talented cyberpunk. very strong and can be used alongside cyberpunk.

the rest of the set kinda sucks lol

legeluga's arguably the worst legend rare now that babel has a true form, nekoluga was the first uber rare added to the game but is just a generic backliner with knockback + freeze and tba is too long to do much, kubilan is just really weird, second form is high foreswing KB wave but not high enough range and kinda just dies sometimes, third form is too low damage to be an effective crit wave, shishilan...honestly not that good anymore, we just have better generalists and it lacks anything specific outside of wave immune which we have a ton of better units for at this point, nobiluga is shockingly irrelevant that mf got NO damage, papaluga is a meme (if you want me to actually talk about this thing just say the word), furiluga dies to anything and it's fully irrelevant once you get aku researcher, and kaoluga is weirdly...half decent? has solid damage with minisurge and great range? minisurge can hit backliners? 20% chance for knockback makes an occasional wall of permaKB? this one's actually solid ngl can't wait for true form but it's still unreliable as minisurge spawns between 150 and 1050 and its 3k dps isn't that great, there are better ubers

this set is a great example of how fucking hard things fall off in this game. duelist didn't just die when courier got added, it got murdered. most lugas died once better, more specialized, more niche units started being meta instead of the generalist CC or DPS units they tend to be. there are still three good and two half decent (shishi/kao) lugas but this set honestly sucks and you shouldn't be rolling this shit unless you really really really want luffy or smthn cuz you're gonna get nobiluga

tl;dr: three good lugas, two half decent ones, six shit ones, roll almighties or ultra souls or smthn

Payroll Tax Management: Ensuring Compliance and Efficiency in Your Business

Managing payroll taxes is a critical responsibility for businesses of all sizes. Accurate and timely payroll tax management not only ensures compliance with federal, state, and local regulations but also helps businesses avoid costly penalties and maintain good relationships with employees and tax authorities. In this article, we will explore the importance of payroll tax management, the key components involved, and best practices for ensuring smooth and efficient payroll tax processes.

What Is Payroll Tax Management?

Payroll tax management refers to the process of calculating, withholding, and remitting the required payroll taxes for employees. These taxes include federal, state, and local income taxes, Social Security, Medicare, unemployment taxes, and other deductions based on the jurisdiction in which the business operates. Proper payroll tax management ensures that employers comply with tax laws, meet deadlines for tax payments, and accurately report payroll taxes to the IRS and relevant state agencies.

Payroll tax management is essential not only for legal compliance but also for building trust with employees. Failing to manage payroll taxes effectively can lead to fines, interest charges, and damage to the company's reputation. Moreover, improper payroll tax management can result in overpayment or underpayment of taxes, both of which can create financial difficulties for the business.

Key Components of Payroll Tax Management

Payroll tax management involves several critical components, each designed to ensure that taxes are calculated accurately and paid on time. The following are the key elements of payroll tax management:

1. Employee Tax Withholding

The first step in payroll tax management is determining the appropriate amount of tax to withhold from an employee's paycheck. This includes federal income tax, state income tax (if applicable), Social Security, and Medicare contributions. The amount of withholding is generally based on the information provided by employees on their W-4 forms, including marital status, number of dependents, and additional withholdings.

Employers must also stay up-to-date on tax rates, which can change annually based on legislation passed at the federal or state level. For example, the Social Security tax rate can fluctuate, and new tax laws may impact employee withholding amounts. Employers are responsible for making these calculations correctly to ensure accurate deductions.

2. Employer Tax Contributions

In addition to withholding taxes from employees, businesses are also required to pay certain employer taxes. These taxes include the employer's portion of Social Security and Medicare taxes, as well as unemployment taxes. Employer contributions to Social Security and Medicare are typically matched dollar-for-dollar with employee contributions.

Unemployment taxes, both federal (FUTA) and state (SUTA), must also be calculated and paid. These taxes fund unemployment benefits for workers who become unemployed through no fault of their own. The rates for these taxes can vary depending on the state and the business’s history with unemployment claims.

3. Filing and Reporting

Payroll taxes must be reported to the appropriate tax authorities on a regular basis. This includes submitting reports to the IRS (for federal taxes) and relevant state and local agencies. Employers must file IRS Form 941 (quarterly) to report federal income, Social Security, and Medicare taxes withheld from employees. They must also file Form 940 (annually) to report unemployment taxes.

In addition to these forms, businesses may be required to file state-specific payroll tax forms, which vary by jurisdiction. For example, some states require employers to submit a quarterly payroll tax return or pay state unemployment taxes on a regular basis.

4. Timely Payments

Ensuring that payroll taxes are paid on time is crucial to avoid penalties and interest charges. The IRS and state tax authorities impose strict deadlines for tax payments. Employers are required to remit payroll taxes on a scheduled basis, either monthly, quarterly, or annually, depending on the size of their business and the amount of taxes owed.

Failure to make timely payments can result in penalties that add up quickly, increasing the financial burden on the company. Furthermore, delays in payment can trigger audits, which can be both time-consuming and costly.

The Importance of Payroll Tax Management

Effective payroll tax management is essential for maintaining financial health and legal compliance. Below are some of the key benefits of managing payroll taxes properly:

1. Avoidance of Penalties and Interest

One of the primary reasons for efficient payroll tax management is to avoid costly penalties and interest charges. The IRS and state tax agencies impose severe penalties for late payments or incorrect filings. For example, businesses that fail to remit payroll taxes on time may face penalties as high as 10% of the amount due, in addition to interest on overdue amounts. Consistent and accurate payroll tax management helps businesses steer clear of these financial burdens.

2. Compliance with Tax Laws

Staying compliant with federal, state, and local tax laws is crucial for businesses. Tax regulations are complex and can change frequently. Payroll tax management ensures that businesses adhere to these ever-evolving laws, minimizing the risk of non-compliance and avoiding legal issues. This is especially important for companies with employees in multiple states, as state tax laws can differ significantly.

3. Improved Cash Flow and Financial Planning

Proper payroll tax management helps businesses plan and allocate funds more efficiently. By ensuring timely payment of taxes and keeping track of tax liabilities, businesses can avoid surprises that disrupt cash flow. This can make it easier for businesses to manage their finances, make informed decisions, and budget accurately for future expenses.

4. Employee Satisfaction

Employees trust their employers to manage payroll taxes accurately, as it impacts their take-home pay and their future benefits, such as Social Security. By ensuring that employee withholdings are accurate and that the employer’s portion of payroll taxes is paid on time, businesses foster trust and goodwill with their workforce.

5. Avoiding Audits and Reviews

Tax authorities may conduct audits of businesses that have a history of inconsistent or improper payroll tax management. Accurate and timely filing of tax returns reduces the likelihood of being audited and helps businesses maintain transparency with tax authorities.

Best Practices for Payroll Tax Management

To effectively manage payroll taxes, businesses should follow several best practices that can help streamline the process and ensure accuracy:

1. Automate Payroll Tax Calculation

Investing in payroll software or outsourcing payroll services can help automate the tax calculation process. Payroll software tools can accurately calculate employee withholdings, employer contributions, and other deductions, reducing the risk of errors. Automation also ensures that tax rates are up-to-date, and reports are generated correctly and on time.

2. Stay Updated on Tax Laws

It is essential for businesses to stay informed about changes in tax laws, rates, and regulations. This can be done through IRS updates, state tax agency communications, or professional tax services. Staying current ensures that businesses are always compliant with the latest tax requirements.

3. Implement a Payment Schedule

Establishing a clear and consistent payment schedule for payroll taxes is key to staying on top of deadlines. Businesses should make sure to remit taxes on time, whether on a monthly, quarterly, or annual basis, and keep track of all tax-related payments and filings.

4. Review Payroll Records Regularly

Regular audits and reviews of payroll records are essential for identifying discrepancies and ensuring that all tax obligations are met. Reviewing records ensures that the right amount of taxes is being withheld and that all necessary payments are made on schedule.

5. Consult a Tax Professional

If managing payroll taxes becomes overwhelming, businesses should consider consulting with a tax professional or accountant. A professional can ensure that taxes are calculated accurately, help businesses understand complex tax regulations, and assist with filings and payments.

Summary

Payroll tax management is a critical function that ensures businesses stay compliant with tax laws, avoid penalties, and maintain good relationships with employees and tax authorities. By implementing best practices such as automating calculations, staying informed about tax laws, and adhering to payment schedules, businesses can streamline payroll tax management and focus on growth and profitability. Proper payroll tax management not only minimizes financial risks but also contributes to a well-managed and sustainable business operation.

Missionary Ripples

"Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe everything I have commanded you. and remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age."1

The idea of being a missionary in another country does not appeal to very many of us. The thought of having to learn a new language or culture takes "leaving our comfort zone" to a whole different level! Yet, the Bible is clear on God's will for His children — we are to "go"! When we think about going into all the world and making disciples, we automatically hear "Missionary" and it's easy to assume that we need to change our location to fulfill God's purpose. But being a missionary is not defined by travel time, and when we see it as only that, we misunderstand the ripple effect that God's love can produce — anywhere!

We can begin the ripples by simply offering a smile to the cashier that can later be passed along to the weary nurse who's grabbing lunch that may help give her the strength to hold the hand of someone we'll never meet as they battle cancer. The ripples continue when the kind word we speak to a friend gives them the courage they need when they go on a business trip to another continent and has the chance to share God's Love in the form of kindness with a stranger in a different land.

We will probably never see how being obedient in the 'Here and Now' can wondrously go on and on through generations to someday make a difference in the 'Then and There'. Maybe you've heard God whispering to your heart to "go" — but where? Your "going" just out your front door is filled with the same potential and purpose as the one who boards a plane and "goes" far away to share God's Word. Your reach, assisted by God's Holy ripples, is endless. We serve a God who is not boxed in by time, circumstances, or geography. He is everywhere, all the time, with everyone. His work in and through us is unlimited. The best place to start sharing His love is within the walls of your own home. Our spouse and our children will be the first to carry out the ripples we toss at them. Make sure those ripples are filled with kindness and love and allow them to carry them on and on.

Suggested Prayer: Dear Lord, thank you for your loving kindness and mercy on my life. I ask that you fill me with them as I go about my day so that I might share a smile or a kind word allowing Your Love to ripple through all who I come in contact with. In Jesus' Holy name, Amen.

Matthew 28:19-20.

Samsung New ISOCELL Vizion Sensors for Robotics and XR

Two new ISOCELL Vizion sensors the global shutter sensor, the ISOCELL Vizion 931, and the time-of-flight (ToF) sensor, the ISOCELL Vizion 63D were unveiled today by Samsung Electronics, a global pioneer in innovative semiconductor technology. Samsung’s ISOCELL Vizion family, which was first unveiled in 2020, consists of ToF and global shutter sensors made expressly to provide visual capabilities for a wide range of next-generation mobile, commercial, and industrial use cases.

Haechang Lee, Executive Vice President of Samsung Electronics‘ Next Generation Sensor Development Team, stated, “With their cutting-edge sensor technologies, Samsung’s ISOCELL Vizion 63D and ISOCELL Vizion 931 will be essential in facilitating machine vision for future high-tech applications like robotics and extended reality (XR).” Utilizing their extensive background in technological innovation, they are dedicated to propelling the swiftly growing image sensor industry forward.

ToF sensors estimate depth and distance by timing the duration of light emission from an item to its location, much like bats do with echolocation.

In particular, Samsung’s ISOCELL Vizion 63D is an indirect ToF (iToF) sensor that senses its environment in three dimensions by measuring the phase difference between emitted and reflected light. The Vizion 63D is perfect for high-resolution and accurate depth measuring applications such as facial verification, XR devices, and industrial and service robots. Its remarkable accuracy and clarity make it an excellent choice.

The first iToF sensor in the market with an integrated depth-sensing hardware image signal processor (ISP) is the ISOCELL Vizion 63D. It can accurately record 3D depth information without the assistance of a second chip thanks to its novel one-chip design, which allows for a 40% decrease in system power consumption over the previous ISOCELL Vizion 33D product. Additionally, the sensor can process images at up to 60 frames per second at QVGA resolution (320 x 240), an extremely popular display resolution in the business and industrial sectors.

The ISOCELL Vizion 63D obtains high Video Graphics Array (VGA) resolution (640×480) within a 1/6.4″ optical format, which makes it a perfect fit for small, portable devices. It is based on the industry’s smallest 3.5 pixel size in iToF sensors.

The Vizion 63D sensor has the highest degree of quantum efficiency in the industry, reaching 38% at an infrared light wavelength of 940 nanometers (nm), thanks to backside scattering technology (BST), which improves light absorption. This makes it possible to have less noise and more light sensitivity, which leads to sharper images with less motion blur.

Additionally, the ISOCELL Vizion 63D’s measurable distance range has been greatly increased from five meters to ten thanks to the support for both flood (high-resolution at short range) and spot (long-range) lighting modes.

Optimized to Capture Dynamic Movements Without Distortion: ISOCELL Vizion 931

A global shutter image sensor designed to capture fast motions without the “jello effect” is the ISOCELL Vizion 931. Global shutter sensors, which mimic human vision, capture the entire image at once or “globally,” in contrast to rolling shutter sensors, which scan the scene line by line from top to bottom in a “rolling” motion. Due to its ability to capture clear, distorted images of moving objects, the ISOCELL Vizion 931 is a great choice for motion-tracking applications in XR gadgets, gaming systems, robotic service and logistics, and drones.

With its one-to-one ratio VGA resolution (640 x 640) design, the ISOCELL Vizion 931 is the best option for iris identification, eye tracking, and facial and gesture detection in head-mounted display devices like XR headsets because it fits more pixels into a smaller form factor.

In addition, the ISOCELL Vizion 931 delivers an astounding 60% quantum efficiency at 850nm infrared light wavelength the highest level in the industry. This achievement was made feasible by combining the BST technique employed in the ISOCELL Vizion 63D with Front Deep Trench Isolation (FDTI), which inserts an insulating layer between pixels to increase light absorption.

With the help of multi-drop, which the Vizion 931 offers, up to four cameras may be easily connected to the application processor with just one wire. The sensor gives gadget manufacturers more design options because it requires less wire.

Sensors from Samsung, the ISOCELL Vizion 63D and ISOCELL Vizion 931, are now being sampled by OEMs overseas.

Understanding IRS Form 940: A Comprehensive Guide for Employers

It's time for businesses to start thinking about their tax returns as tax season approaches. Form 940 is one important form that they should be aware of. In this blog, we'll define Form 940 and talk about its importance. Get ready to understand how this form relates to your business taxes and why you shouldn't forget about it when filing your taxes.

Know What's Form 940?

Form 940- "Employer’s Annual FUTA Tax Return" Federal Unemployment Tax Act(FUTA)- Raises funds to compensate people with unemployment benefits who have lost their jobs. The FUTA tax rate is 6% of the first $7,000 paid to each employee every year.

Should you File Form 940?

Employers should file their 940 Form annually to report unemployment taxes to the IRS, and importantly these taxes are not withheld from the employee's wages and are solely paid by employers.

If you are an employer, who comes under any one of these categories, you must file Form 940 to the IRS:

If the employer has paid a total of $1500 or more to all the employees during any quarter of the current or previous tax year.

If an employer has employees working for 20 weeks of the tax year. These include full-time, part-time, or seasonal/temporary employment. 

Special cases

For Employers of Household Employees:

If you are an employer of household employees, you must pay FUTA tax only on paid wages as cash of $1,000 or more.

For Agricultural Employers:

Have you paid cash wages of $20,000 or more to farmworkers during any calendar quarter in 2021 or 2022?

Have you employed 10 or more farm workers during some part of the day for 20 or more different weeks in 2021, and 2022?

If you come under any one of these conditions, then you must File Form 940.

For Indian Tribal Governments:

Services rendered by employees of a federally recognized Indian tribal government employer (including any subdivision, subsidiary, or business enterprise wholly owned by the tribe) are exempt from FUTA tax and hence they are excluded from filing Form 940. 

For Tax-Exempt Organizations:

Religious, educational, scientific, charitable, and other organizations described in section 501(c)(3) and exempt from tax under section 501(a) generally aren't subject to FUTA tax.

For State or Local Government Employers:

Services by employees of a state, or a political subdivision or instrumentality of the state, are exempt from FUTA tax, and Form 940 is not required.

Form 940 Changes for 2023 Tax Year :

The IRS has released a few changes to Form 940 for the Tax Year 2023.

Credit reduction states for 2023:

A state that has not repaid money that it borrowed from the federal government to pay unemployment benefits is considered a credit reduction state. 

Credit reduction rates of California (CA), Connecticut (CT), Illinois (IL), and New York (NY) is 0.6% and the U.S Virgin Islands (VI) is 3.6% for Tax year 2023.

New Form 940 (sp) available in Spanish for Tax Year 2023:

All employers, including employers in Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, have the option to file new Form 940 (sp) for tax year 2023 as Form 940-PR may no longer be available to file for tax years beginning after December 31, 2022. 

Electronically filing an amended Form 940:

Till date there is only paper filing option for all the amendment forms. Now IRS has come up with the update of electronically filing Form 940, beginning sometime in 2024.

NOTE: If you are a Multi state employer (Check the box on Line 1b in Form 940) or Paid wages subjected to the Unemployment tax laws in credit reduction states(Check the box on Line 2 in Form 940)

You must file Form 940 Schedule A along with Form 940

Information to Know Before You File Form 940:

Business Details

Total payment made to all employees

FUTA Tax and Adjustments If credit reduction is applied.

Balance Due or Overpayment

FUTA liability deposits

When should you file?

The due date to file Form 940 for the 2023 tax year is January 31, 2024.

If FUTA taxes were deposited on the correct deadlines, Form 940 isn’t due until February 10, 2024.

The deadline is based on when the FUTA taxes are deposited:

If the FUTA tax liability is more than $500 for the calendar year, then the payments should be deposited at least for one quarter. 

If the liability is less than $500 in a quarter, it can be carried over to the next quarter. 

Complete your 940 filing before due!

What will happen if you fail to file within the deadline?

Employers will be imposed with penalties if the payment is not made or the 940 is not submitted by the due date. 

The penalty for Form 940 late filing will be increased on a daily basis for amounts that were not deposited properly on time.

If the deposits are made 1 to 5 days late, a 2% penalty will be charged.

This penalty can be increased to 15% if the amounts remain due more than 10 days following the IRS notice.

Employers can either file paper copies or e-file their Form 940 to the IRS. The IRS has revised its threshold rate. According to this, it is mandatory to e-file if there are 10 or more returns in a calendar year beginning in 2024, tax year 2023.
