Call Me Daddy

cmd; two

Sehun carefully scooped the unconscious angel in his arms and ran to his friends, the other five children trailing behind him. Si Junmyeon ang unang nakapansin kay Sehun na natataranta habang pinipilit gisingin ang batang naliligo sa sarili niyang dugo, kaya't dali-dali niyang tinawagan ang kanyang step-brother na si Dr. Kim at pinapunta ito sa kanilang bahay. Wala pang labinlimang minuto ay nasa loob na ito ng guest room at sinusuri ang batang hanggang ngayo'y nasa bisig pa rin ni Sehun, because the latter refused to entrust the young child to other people, lalo na't hindi siya sigurado sa kalagayan nito. Pigil na pigil ang hininga ni Sehun habang masuring tinitingnan ang doktor na abala sa paglilinis ng sugat ng bata, at nakahinga lamang ng maluwag nang ideklarang ligtas ito sa kapahamakan. Tinawagan niya ang kanyang butler na si Donghae at pinabili ito ng damit na pamalit ng anghel na payapang natutulog sa guest room nila Junmyeon. Ilang minuto lamang ay dumating si Donghae kasama ang kanyang kasintahan na si Eunhyuk, isa ring butler ni Sehun. Ibinigay nila ang mga damit kay Sehun at umalis, na siya namang sinamantala ni Sehun upang alagaan ang anghel na ngayo'y wala ng bahid ng dumi o dugo sa kanyang mala-porselanang kutis.

Sehun leaned down to have a closer look on the angel. His face resembled a deer, and he looked so ethereal. He couldn't help but balled his fist in anger. This child is so young, anong klaseng tao ang kayang manakit sa batang kagaya niya? Sehun then noticed the slight movement of the child's fingers and slowly, his eyes fluttered open. Mukhang nagulat ito sa hindi pamilyar na tao sa kanyang tabi kung kaya't isiniksik niya ang kanyang katawan sa pinakadulong parte ng kama at walang tigil na isinisigaw ang mga pangalang Kyungsoo, Yixing, Umin, Baekhyun, at Tao.

Dali-dali namang tumakbo papunta sa nasabing kwarto ang limang bata at pinilit pakalmahin ang kanilang hyung. The oldest of the children seemed to calm down a bit, but he was still shaking and biting his lips so hard that any minute, it would start to bleed. Sehun felt his heart being clenched and it hurt, his chest hurt. He had never seen someone so scared, so terrified, and so fragile like this angel. He then promised to himself that he'll do everything it takes to see this angel smile, to see him happy and carefree like what he has to be.

Time seemed to stop when the angel looked into Sehun's eyes, his brown orbs sparkling with tears and he ran into Sehun's arms, chanting 'I'm scared' like a mantra and clinging to Sehun's neck as if his life depended on the older. With shaky hands, he stroked the angel's honey blonde hair. The younger seemed to relax, leaning closer to his chest and smiling contently. Soon, soft snores escaped the angel's lips and Sehun knew he was fast asleep again. He carefully lay the honey blonde child back on the bed and continued stroking his hair, loving how soft it was.

"Salamat po sa pagtulong sa amin ginoo, ngunit maaari ko po bang malaman kung ano ang inyong pangalan? Mukha pong panatag ang loob ni Luhan hyung sa inyo."

Sehun turned to face the other kids. He had completely forgotten about them, for his mind was too occupied with thoughts of Luhan. He inwardly smiled as he finally knew the angel's name, and fitten him perfectly. So pure and innocent.

"My name is Oh Sehun, kiddo. But you can call me Mr. Oh. Are you Luhan's friends? It was nice meeting all of you. Would you mind telling me what happened earlier because Luhan seemed to be the only one who's badly hurt."

A shiver ran down the children's spine as they recalled what happened during the last few days, but because Luhan seemed to be at ease with this man in front of them, they thought they could trust him.

"Sasabihin namin sa iyo Mr. Oh, at umaasa kaming matutulungan mo kami, lalung-lalo na si Luhan hyung."

"I promise."

"Magsisimula ako sa buhay namin sa kamay ni Mr. Z."
