Hidden I sunwon

Last Chance Ch.8

As soon as they reached home.
She quickly let go of his arm, "You should head to sleep now." She says while she locks the door.

Sunoo didn't speak. She continue to close the windows, turn the lights off and fix some things at the living room. She double-checked before speaking again.

"Yah, why aren't you going to your room."
She flicks his forehead. This time, he didn't react to it. He would probably made a sound or rolls his eyes. But nothing.

"...yah." She calls out to him.
Around this time, she got much worried.
Did they have a fight? She thought about Jungwon.

Sunoo flinched as if he snapped out from a dream. "O..oh, you were saying?" He asks her. She didn't want to avoid the topic anymore. She signal him to sat with her on the sofa. Sunoo follows her.

As they sat down, she spoke first. "Sunoo.." She says as she frowns.
Sunoo looks at her, confused why she got serious all of a sudden. He hums as a respond.

"Did you and.. that Jungwon had a fight?"
She asks hesitantly. Sunoo immediately was stunned by the sudden question. He opened his mouth trying to think of an excuse, but just answered.

"I.. don't know." He looks down. "Maybe he's really just busy like you said, noona"
He smiles trying to get rid of any negative thoughts.

"Are you sure." She holds his shoulders.

"..I don't know."

"...."

She opens her mouth trying to say something. She hesitated at first but got the courage to. "I know there's something wrong when you look like that."

He raised his eyebrows and looks at her,
"Look like what..?"

She chuckles softly, "You're really bad at hiding your emotions, you know." She says. Sunoo frowns, "Is that a compliment or an insult." He asks sarcastically.

She laughs, "Whether it's both, I'm still glad I could tell what you're feeling." She taps his shoulder, "...That's why I want to help you when there's something wrong."
She smiles sadly.

"I can't bare to see you like this.. You're like.. the sunshine in our family, who always makes the room loud but better."
She lowers her head as she looks at him.

"That's why, if I see you like this. It totally feels like we don't have a sun.." She lower her eyebrows as she smiles. She felt much better after saying those.

Sunoo couldn't bare to ignore that. He smiles back, "So that's why the sun was sad today." He says. "Thanks noona, but that was cringy." He jokes.

She flicks his forehead, "Yah! I'm trying to cheer you up!"

Sunoo laughs as he covers his forehead.
She stops as she gaze at him, glad that she finally made him smile. As Sunoo was laughing she put her finger on her lips, "Shhh.. mom might wake up.."

He raised his eyebrows and cover his mouth dramatically. He paused for a while, then whispers, "Thanks noona, I feel much better." He smiles, opens his arm trying to signal her.

She opens her arm back and hugs him.

As they both let go, she stood up. "Alright, you have to go to sleep now." She says while Sunoo got up too.

He nodds and smile before going to his room. But as he was about to open the door, he stops. "Noona.." He calls her.

She looks at him and hums as a respond.

"Your scarf..." He says slowly.

She raised her eyebrows.

"...I forgot it..."
