cw // mention of death

"Okay, okay, I understand that it's late, you had to take care of Chunghee and the given situation was stressing everyone out but this is no reason for you two to fight."

Of course Seungmin was right. He had always been. That's why he was one of the people I trusted the most and our lawyer.

"Dad?"

Chunghee woke up from his sleep, probably because we had gotten too loud around him. Turning around to us, all dizzy, tears started forming in his eyes.

"Dad?" he cried out again.

As we only watched him, he started sobbing. Jeongin being quick to run to his side. Chunghee wrapped his short arms around Jeongin's upper body, finding comfort in his hug.

"Hey, it's okay, your Dad will soon be here."

As if on cue, Minho entered the room, completely out of breath while looking for his son.

"Chunghee, dear, why are you crying?"

Rushing to his son's side after Jeongin moved away, he took him into a soft embrace.

The youngest didn't answer, only hugging his father. We couldn't do anything other than watch, even though everything felt awkward.

"Dad."

"Yes?"

"I love you and I love Haeun. I want her to be my mom too."

Not only shocking us but also Minho, Chunghee went silent for a while again before speaking up.

"Do you think mom will be sad?"
