UNFULFILLED PROMISE ; [윤정한 x 최승철]

PROMISE : Twelve

"Can you be serious for a while?" Jeonghan asked, trying to show that he's annoyed. Even though he's not and he enjoyed what Seungcheol did.

"I'm serious," Seungcheol replied staring directly onto Jeonghan's eyes.

"I'm just gonna finish all these cupcakes and don't you dare lick the frosting on my mouth again!" Jeonghan threatened and stuffed a big piece of cupcake in his mouth.

On the other hand, someone is heartbroken. Yoonwoo is standing behind the door and witnessed everything. He also bought a box of cupcakes for Jeonghan with drinks on his hand to share with him.

Then, he was about to leave when he saw Somi, "Hey, Somi.." Yoonwoo grabbed her by her wrist.

Somi looked at him with a smile, "Yes, sir?" Somi asked politely. Yoonwoo showed her the box and also the drinks.

"Wanna eat with me?"

-

"These are a lot of cupcakes," Somi commented, widening her eyes.

"Yeah. I did bought quite a lot." Yoonwoo chuckled and took a cupcake.

Somi also took one. "Is this for Jeonghan-ssi?" She asked and took a bite. The cupcake fits with Somi's taste.

"Yeah," there's a hint of regret in his voice. It's kinda regretful that he bought it late. Seungcheol already gave Jeonghan the same thing.

"These are all delicious. You should have still gave it to him." Somi said and took another cupcake.

"How can I give these to him if you're already eating them?" Yoonwoo tried to joke around.

Somi chuckled in embarrassment. "Sorry," she gave him a peace sign.

Yoonwoo then noticed a frosting on Somi's mouth. He stood up and leans in towards her to wipe it off using his thumb and licked it.

Somi was too stunned with his sudden action.

Yoonwoo then realized the distance between their faces, "T-There's a frosting.." Yoonwoo explained and went back to his seat.

Both of them looked away from each other with such awkwardness.

Something good and better is indeed coming in Yoonwoo's way.

It's 5:00 PM, and Seunghee decided to visit her only daughter, Nagyeol in her cafe.

"Nag," Seunghee called out her daughter. The cafe was about to close and she's all alone with some of her crew.

"Oh, Mom!" Nagyeol is always like this. She's always excited seeing her Mom. It's because she's afraid of losing her and thinking that this might be a dream.

"I'm gonna take you somewhere I know you'll love to see." Seunghee said without any hesitation.

Nagyeol looks kinda confused where that somewhere is, but she trust her Mom so she immediately closed the cafe and went with her Mom.

A few minutes later, they arrived at a house. Just right for one family inside.

"Where are we?" Nagyeol asked her Mom. Seunghee just gave her a meaningful smile and leads the way.

Seunghee knocked on the door, "It's me." That's the only thing she said, and a few seconds later, both of them could hear a footstep.

Nagyeol isn't sure why but her heart is pounding so hard.

The door is slowly opening, and Nagyeol, upon seeing the person who opened the door widened her eyes in shock. She can't believe her eyes.

"A-Areum eonnie..?" Nagyeol's tears are unstoppable. Her heart skipped a bit as she saw the person she misses the most.

"Y-Yeoreum.." Areum called her out with the name that Rina provided.

"I-I thought..?"

"That's a long story. Call your brother, he's needed here." Seunghee ordered and they all went inside.

-

Few moments has passed, Seungcheol and Jeonghan came together, and just like Nagyeol, Seungcheol was stunned to see Areum, alive.

"You're alive?" Seungcheol can't believe his eyes. He also saw Minseok there.

"Minseok hyung," Seungcheol called out his name. Minseok just smiled.

"How did this happen?" Seungcheol couldn't help but ask.

"Before answering that, Jeonghan needs to see these people again," Seunghee smiled and there, the door opened.

Jeonghan turned his head and there he saw his family. Sanhyuk, Jeongbin, Miyeon and Sanha, with Hwiyoung.

"J-Jeonghanie?" Jeongbin uttered out his name. Jeonghan didn't even hesitate to run towards his Mom.

"You're alive!" Miyeon hugged her brother, and do so Sanha.

The Yoon Family is now finally reunited, again.

"But there's more."

All of them averted their gaze towards the stairs. The unexpected people went down. Jeongyeon and Beomgyu.

"E-Eommonim?" Seungcheol then ran towards Jeongyeon to hug her.

"I'd like to introduce someone to all of you." Jeongyeon smiled and lifted up her gaze.

Everyone except Jeonghan, Sanhyuk, Seunghee, Areum and Minseok got shocked upon seeing the most unexpected person for them. Yoo Rina.

"Mom, what's the meaning of this?" Seungcheol asked.

"I'd like to introduce to you, my older sister, Yoo Rina." Jeongyeon said and Rina smiled at everyone.

"What?!" Nagyeol couldn't help but to react.

Seunghee started to narrate everything from the very beginning. How Cheolhan likes Jeongbin at first until the very last plan : Jeonghan's death.

"Your Dad planned the car crash to kill me." Jeonghan said. Cheolhan did kept his words that he said to Jeonghan when Seungcheol got hospitalized.

"Soohyang took a part in it," Seunghee added.

"Everything that happened is all because of Cheolhan." Jeongyeon stated and hugged Beomgyu.

"So everyone is just a victim of his dirty mind?" Seungcheol is attempting to cry. After all these years, he thought that cheating is the only thing that his Dad could ever do.

But he also tried to kill some people around him. Seunghee, Nagyeol and most importantly, his love, Jeonghan.

"He wanted to get rid of me in the beginning?" Nagyeol couldn't help but to be disappointed.

"Rina saved you," Seunghee said and hugged her daughter.

The siblings finally knew the truth about their father.

"He has no heart!" Nagyeol cried. After all, she's just an innocent child back then. Just because Cheolhan thinks she's no good for the future of his company, he wanted to get rid of her.

Jeonghan hugged his family once again. Hwiyoung looked at them with such happiness. He knows how much Miyeon suffered without seeing her brother, thinking that he died.

"I'm glad you're alive." Jeongbin said and kissed Jeonghan on his forehead.

Sanhyuk then entered the scene and said something that made everyone stunned on their feet.

"When are you gonna get back together with Seungcheol and give us grandchildren?"

"DAD WE'RE BOTH GUYS."
