Chapter 8 : Confusion
After school, Seorin decided to bicycle home. It was same one he used to make his announcement of becoming a trainee.
She haven't rode a bicycle in months, so might as well. She parked the bicycle next to the entrance. Unexpectedly, Seorin felt a tap on her shoulder.
"Mr. Ahn? Why are you outside?"
"Hello, Seorin. Have you seen Sehun at all today?" Mr. Ahn questioned, typing the gate code, and letting both of them on the courtyard.
"Not at all..." Seorin mumbled, scratching the side of her head, but then pausing, remembering a message from him this morning.
(Labeled 세훈 오빠) " I have something to do after school today, and I'll probably won't get home until 5:00PM. I'm getting breakfast outside, so don't worry about that. "
She slipped out her Samsung phone and showed Mr. Ahn his message.
"Where could that punk be?" He said.
...
"Adjussi, do you by chance have any newspaper articles dated back to 2005, ten years ago about Mr. Oh Youngjae?" Sehun asked to the police officer in front of him, sitting in behind of a computer. "Before I check, may I ask for proof of who you are, and how you are related to Mr. Oh Youngjae?" "Ah, yes." Sehun pulled out his student I.D.
Waiting for the policeman, Sehun thought of why he had come to the police station in the first place.
This Morning. Before school.
Sehun was walking past his fathers office in quite a hurry, so he ran into Mr. Ahn, who was also running. His bookbag ended up spilling its contents to the ground. Ayyyish, I forgot to zip it. Sehun thought.
"Jwesonghaminda, Sehun-ssi." Mr. Ahn quickly picked up a few things and put them inside his bookbag,"Sorry, but I need to tell your father something urgent." He said, walking inside his father's office. "It's okay, Mr. Ahn!" Sehun called out, then continued to pick up his stuff.
In the middle of doing that, he heard some murmurs inside the office, but he didn't mind it at first. When Sehun had finished and zipped up his bookbag, his father said something loud and clear.
"Why did he bring this up, 12 years later?" Sehun paused. 'He' ?
"If this got your attention, Youngjae-ssi, should I look for more details of how his father knew about what happened with the 2005 incident?" "Junmin. You know very well that nobody should ever speak of that time ever again, so..." "So," Mr. Ahn said.
"I will find out every detail of this topic, and report it to you."
End of flashback.
"Sehun-ssi," He snapped out of his thoughts to see the policeman with a couple of newspapers,"Here."
"Thank you." Sehun bowed and walked to a chair next to the police station's glass doors. He held the first one up, and read the headline.
Instead of his eyes growing to the size of mandarin oranges, he sat there dumbfounded at the harmless titles.
[The Youngjae Group forms a business deal with The Lee Group]
[A agreement with the Youngjae group and the Lee group]
What is this? Just a business agreement? Then, why was abuhjee so passionate about keeping this a secret from a person?
...
The instant Luhan typed in the room code and jumped inside, holding a bubble tea, Mr. Choi and him broke out in Mandarin.
"Don't you think being too friendly with that person is bad?" Mr. Choi started, as Luhan drank a bit of his drink,"I didn't plan sitting next to Seorin. Why?"
"Revisiting this case that killed your mom isn't just eating a cake. Your dad wouldn't want you to be close with his daughter." "You can't blame what someone has done on their own children." Luhan said, sitting his bookbag on one of the couches surrounding a coffee table.
Mr. Choi sighed,"OK." He said in English, then switched back,"Do whatever do you want, but you can't forget of why you were sent here in the first place..."
...
"...teaming up to make the best hospital in South Korea, they have advised a plan to ensure comfort and..." Sehun sat down the newspapers. This contains 99.9999999999999% useless information. The only semi-useful thing Sehun got out of this was that this newspaper was printed the day after this happened. December 17, 2005.
He sighed, ether his father was freaking out over nothing, or there was another side he didn't know.

Author-nim's Note.
Did you guys see the rumored title and lyrics for EXO's comeback? Maybe it should be called 'Call Me Omma' instead of 'Call Me Daddy' considering Suho omma. LOL.
The rumored title sounds byeontae af alone already...
Anyways, thank you for reading. ♡
