missing pieces | doil

chapter 11

Doyoung didn't look or speak to him all the way from Gyeongju to Seoul, when they arrived at their apartment, Doyoung helped with all the stuff without talking or reacting to Taeil. Taeil wanted to talk to Doyoung but didn't know how to start, he wasn't even sure if Doyoung noticed it or he was just in his regular grumpy day.

Doyoung isn't talking to Taeil but he was pretty normal with their triplet. Doyoung did join them for dinner but he isn't eating, he was just feeding the triplet and Taeil couldn't say much. He doesn't have anything to say but they need to talk.

Taeil was helping his triplet to sleep as it's not even that hard since they were tired and they sleep as soon as Taeil play with their hair. Looking at the clock, it's nearly midnight. He was afraid to face Doyoung, what if Doyoung didn't want to listen to him. What if Doyoung take away the children from him? What if Doyoung blocked him from the triplet life?

"Are they asleep?" Doyoung said in front of the triplet room, his voice sounded cold.

"Yes," Taeil replied coldly without looking at Doyoung. He was afraid of what Doyoung had to say about him.

"Come out, we need to talk," Doyoung said roughly and walked out without waiting for Taeil.

Taeil sighed deeply, hugging the sleeping Daehan. No matter for far he run, no matter how hard he tries to hide the truth he had the feeling that sooner or later the truth will unveil. Will Seulgi forgive him if he was unable to protect her name? How will Doyoung react to this?

Taeil took the chances to kiss each of his triplet cheeks and forehead just in case something gets out of his hold. He told them how much they mean to him. He was hoping Doyoung to keep him by the triplet side, he wasn't ready to hear what Doyoung had to say about him.

Timidly, Taeil walked to the living room and Doyoung was sitting there waiting for him, expressionless.

Doyoung will understand his reason if the man gives him a chance to explain himself. He will explain it properly to Doyoung and everything will be back to normal. His relationship with Doyoung now is deeper than before, Doyoung will understand him. Taeil convinces himself.

Before Taeil manages to say anything, Doyoung roughly asked him, "Who are you!?"

All the words he had been repeating in his head, disappear just like that. Who is he? He almost forgot who is he, all he knows that he is the father of the triplet. That's the answer he gives to everyone but is he still the father of the triplet now, Doyoung knows the truth?

"What are you doing? What are your games?" Doyoung was now furious how Taeil not answering his question.

Taeil tried to hold onto Doyoung, he wanted to hug his husband and he will explain everything. Everything will be fine, Taeil thought. Doyoung pushed him away, he looks disgusted at Taeil.

"Why did you lie? You are not the father of my children."

"No, I am their father. Seulgi said I am their father,"

"Seulgi?"

"The girl you sleep with 8 years ago, Seulgi. My twin sister. I can explain, let me explain," Taeil is no crying mess. The word 'not the triplet father' hurt him so much. He holds on for so long for his triplet, without the triplet Taeil don't even know who he is. He gave up a lot for the boys.

Doyoung stands on his feet, looking at Taeil with anger. Who is Seulgi? He never heard of that names before.

"What nonsense are you talking about!?"

Doyoung was sure the person he sleeps with 8 years ago was Taeil. But Taeil body he saw last night doesn't have any surgery marks, he was already so confused about it but when he was cleaning their bed after their hot make-out session, he saw blood. Meaning Taeil is a virgin. Then who did he sleep with 8 years ago?
