He's Back |Park Sunghoon|

37

"So do you still talk to your father?" Sunoo asked in genuine curiosity as he walked slowly next to Sunghoon, who looked down at his feet.

"He died. A while ago." Sunghoon answered nonchalantly.

Sunoo's eyebrows furrowed at his words as he stared ahead.

"What about your dad?" Sunghoon asked quietly as he looked at Sunoo.

"He's sick." He answered sadly as he frowned.

Sunghoon's eyes widened as he looked back to his feet.

"What about the business?" Sunghoon couldn't help but ask as Sunoo seemed sad.

"I'm supposed to have it."

Sunghoon raised his eyebrows as he placed his hands in his pockets.

"What about your dad's?" Sunoo asked.

"I didn't want it."

Sunoo let out a laugh as he looked up at the sky.

"We should switch. I'm not very fit to be in this spot." Sunoo laughed as he shook his head.

Sunghoon gave him a small smile.

"I don't want to live that life." Sunghoon said quietly.

"Makes sense."

Sunghoon furrowed his eyebrows and stopped to look at him.

"Do you want to do it?" Sunghoon asked softly.

Sunoo stared at his shoes as he crossed his arms over his chest.

"A lot of people's lives are depending on him. And if someone doesn't do something, they're all going to be... done." He hesitated as he shrugged his shoulders.

"What about yours? You don't want to, do you?" Sunghoon muttered as he stared at him.

Sunoo continued to stare at his shoes, moving on the balls of his feet.

"I do want to, but I don't know much."

Sunghoon stayed quiet as he also looked at the floor.

He suddenly lifted his head to look at Sunoo.

"How about we work together?"

Angelica quickly spilled the cup of coffee into the sink and tried to nonchalantly sit down, when she heard the door unlocking.

When Sunghoon opened the door, he stared at her in suspicion.

"Hello..." He dragged out as he closed the door with his gaze not leaving her.

Angelica placed her hair behind her ear and smiled.

"Hi Tall Peak."

He stayed quiet as he walked closer to her with his eyes narrowed, his eyes fell down to her clothes and he stopped in his tracks.

Her tight shirt was perfectly showcasing her rounding belly and he felt like his mind had been blown.

Why did he not notice how much the baby had actually grown?

She was always in baggy clothes even before she was pregnant and the outline of her body was almost never exposed to his eyes, unless they were- anyways.

He had felt her belly before, but he had never fully seen it.

He felt his eyes filling with tears for some reason and he quickly wiped them before they could fall, walking towards the counter and dropping his keys there.
