Wooyoung

"His father. I don't know how.. but that fucker is still alive." Hongjoong cursed.

Hundreds of questions came rushing through Wooyoung's mind. San had told both of them that he'd made sure to kill him, so how is he still alive? Did San know? Is that why he tried to warn Wooyoung? Is that why San kept trying to push him away? No that's not the important question. If his father is alive... then surely he must be looking for the rest of his family. His sister and mother might be in even more danger if that man reaches them first.

"Wooyoung... I don't know what to do." Hongjoong spoke up. "To the public, I'm dead and San is to blame for my death. If I'm going to shift the blame onto his father, then I'm going to need evidence that he's alive and considering how no one has caught onto him, that evidence is going a pain in the ass to get." Hongjoong ran his fingers through his hair in frustration.

"For now... for now let's focus on getting you better. Focus on at least getting you on your feet." Wooyoung replied. "I should probably go see his sister tomorrow and make sure they're safe. Now that San's father is alive, he'll most likely go to see them."

Hongjoong nodded in agreement. "I'll stay here for now, I can't risk being seen."

"You can't leave even if you wanted to. Not in your condition that is." Wooyoung added.

Hongjoong opened his mouth to fight back but slowly closed it when he realised that there was no way he could win against his friend. "Okay."

Wooyoung had met up with Soo Ji that same evening and they'd both agreed ongoing into a separate apartment owned by him. Soo Ji had not argued any further since according to her the doctor was now 'family'.

Family. That felt nice to hear for once. Wooyoung didn't really have what you'd call your basic family. His mother had passed away when he first entered highschool and his father was always working to provide for both Wooyoung and his younger brother. Wooyoung had to mature at a young age to be able to care for his brother who was significantly younger than him. Even then he was greatful to his father for actually taking it upon himself to provide for their family.

Although San's family were in an even  worse situation than him, he was still glad that they were all so welcoming about having a new member. Wooyoung wasn't quite sure about what San's mother would think of him, but Soo Ji had reassured Wooyoung that she'd definitely like him.

Wooyoung couldn't stop smiling all the way to his next destination. He wanted to go tell San about his findings, although he wasn't sure how exactly he would start that conversation. How would San react? Would he take it badly? Is it better to just leave him in the dark? Millions of questions rushed into Wooyoungs head.

By the time he'd reached his destination, the thoughts running through his head had slowed down significantly. Wooyoung made his way through the main entrance and showed his ID card to the guard. They'd allowed him to enter as always. He walked through the same hallways like he did before, however this time his heartbeat increased with every step he took. Wooyoung was excited to finally see his boyfriend after a week of being apart. He sped up his pace slightly, a smile spread across his face. He greeted every person he passed enthusiastically. Usually he'd ignore everyone he didn't know, but today he was in a pleasant mood.

As he reached closer to San's room, he'd caught a glimpse of several men walking past him with brown cardboard boxes. 'Someone must have either left.' Wooyoung thought.

He continued walking until he could finally see his boyfriends room. The cell door was wide open and people were walking in and out of it. Wooyoung's heart started beating faster, he quickened his pace till he was eventually running. The doctor's eyes met Seonghwa's and he quickly rushed up to him. "What the hell is going on?!"
