6 Feet Below The Ground

Snow Flower

"He's also your father."

Long silence came after I said that. They're just looking at me with a blank expression.

"I already know." Jiyeon broke the silence, Soohyung looks at him with confusion.

"You knew?!" Soohyung asked with shock. What's happening?

"Yeah, Well.. by accident I guess." He said.

"What accident?" Taehyung asks.

"I saw their pictures in mom's closet. I thought he was just an ex or something and I got curious so I searched it on google. I saw a lot of articles about Mom flying in America because she's pregnant. Then I got confused why there's no articles about her boyfriend that time. I ran back to her closet and saw the Polaroids with dates on it. It was almost the same dates then I realized the date between our birthday and the pictures." He explained, we're all looking at him with confusion. My heart racing, all this time he knew?

"So-- that's why you asked me to fly to south korea-" Soohyung said, thinking he looked at Jiyeon with wide eyes and pointed him with his finger

"Why didn't you tell me?!" He asked with a loud voice.

"Because- I don't want to." He said with a sassy look.

"You knew? Why didn't you tell me?" Taehyung asked. Jiyeon rolls his eyes.

"What would you react if someone walks up to you and say 'hey uhm long story short, I'm your son' out of nowhere." He said and even quoted in the air that actually made sense. Except if he had other relationship after ours.

"Makes sense." He said.

"So it wasn't really Mom's 'Last wish'?" Soohyung asked and quoted his hands in the air the words 'Last wish'.

"See, you're too gullible." Jiyeon teased.

"No it's actually her wish, but not the last duh. I still remember how mom tells us their love story when we were five, then she'll always say 'I wish I could see him again'."

Everyone went on silence looking at the ceiling and floor.

"so..."

"hmmm."

"Yeah..."

"Awkward~" Jiyeon said with a tone.

"Mr. Kim do you still love Mom?" Jiyeon asked that made my blood rush to my cheeks

"Jiyeon!-" I looked at him with wide eyes and shook my head signaling it was a bad question.

"Dad's engaged, remember?" Soohyung said.

He's engaged? To who?

"I haven't actually proposed yet.." He said, we all turned our head to him. He stood up and picks up the bouquet that he placed earlier in the table.

"I just wanted to visit here first." I forced myself to smile. I was too late, I deserve this. Taehyung deserves a woman who's brave enough to stay by his side after all this years. A woman who's not afraid. 

"I'll hang out with you guys tomorrow, I'll make up for the last years I wasn't with you guys. I promise." He said and hugs them both, he stop at the door for a second and look at me with a smile.

"See you." I smiled and nod.

But before he proceeds at leaving the room he looks back and asked if he can talk to the kids privately. Both of them left the room and talked outside.

After a while the door opened and Soohyung was all smiles in his face. 

"Ok dad, bye!" Jiyeon waved his hands.
