PARK SEONGHWA POV

I can hear a loud laughter across mine and HongJoong room. "WooYoung must be pranked San again", I couldn't help but chuckled.

HongJoong came in right after I heard the laughter. "Hey", I greeted him as he just showed his smiled. "Is everything okay, Joong?", his eyes looked nervous and disappointed somehow.

"KQ decided to do ATEEZ show next month", he said sighed. It was weird that he looked like he against their decision. He will be the first who would agreed to their decision no matter what.
"It's an opportunity for us, ATEEZ member to shine", I said to him.
"You don't understand, Hwa", he ruffled his hair in messed.
"Then, make me", I asked him to spilled his worry.
"Our next show would including girl group", he said as I realised his worry then.

(END OF PARK SEONGHWA POV)

WARNING

-TRIGGERING CHILD ABUSE AND PEDOPHILE-

No one know his past except for the member only. Even the company and their manager. His past that had once ruined his teenager's life. His past which led him to his endless trauma.

He was just six at that time. What could a six years old boy would understand what physical abused was. All he knew that time was his not-so-stranger unnie coated him with toys.

"Eomma. I'm going to JiAn unnie house", the boy walked out from the house as she waved to her.
"Be safe, Joong", her mother said letting the boy go since she knew the teenage girl.

Han JiAn. 30 years old girl who had been tutoring HongJoong. She had been hired by HongJoong parents when they heard how the boy was a child prodigy.

"Our Joong really fond of JiAn unnie after all", the mother said to herself smiling.

...

"Joong-ie", the female looked at him with smile. "Need my help with your homework?", she asked as he just nodded. The boy having some troubled with his math homework.
"It's not like that, Joong-ie", she sit beside him as she helped him. Her hand travel to the boys thighs as he looked at her uncomfortable with her action.
"Noona. I don't like it", he said pointing at her hand starting to travel around him.
"You don't like me, Joong-ie?", she looked as the boy shook his head. "Then", she crept a smiled. "If you let me, I'll bought you toys tomorrow morning", he said making him delighted.

...

Day by day, he feel scared with JiAn. Not that he coated her with toys everytime she played with him,  there were a couple of time she would abused the boy and even threatened him if he ever told anyone about what she did to him.
"I saw that.you has a new friend, Joong-ie", she held his
To the point he had a fever whenever his mother asked him to go to JiAn for tutoring.

"Can you just teach me instead of her, Eomma?", his mother looked at him with concerned.
"Is everything okay, Joong?", her mother was so worried seeing the boy sudden changed.

That was what making her mother worried. Last week, his teacher called her to come at school as she told her HongJoong condition. She said that he started to isolated himself from his classmate. Sometime he would cried suddenly. Whenever she came close to the boy and asked him, he would keep silent.

Her mother told his teacher that he never has a problem at home. Nor his parents arguing or something like that.

Psychology trauma. She said that her son currently having one. He scared opened up to anyone as if someone will hurt him if he do. And yet the mother didn't realised it.

Almost a week since HongJoong locked himself in his room. He would came out to eat and taking bath only. Other than that, no one has ever entered his room.

"JiAn. You're here", he heard her mother called the woman's name as he rushed to the door, locked them and hide in the closet; sobbing.
"I'm here because Joong-ie haven't came to my house for tutoring", she explained. He could heard a knock as he became terrified.
"Joong-ah" ,he heard she called her name. "Noona come here to see you. Don't you miss me?", her word making the boy crying. He was so scared of her.
"I think we should stop tutoring for a while until our HongJoong became fine again", he heard his mother talked to her. "I'll let you know when he's started to talk again", she explained as then the girl soon disappearing from the house.

"Eomma", he called his mother as the woman hugged her as soon as he came out of the room.
"You're finally talking again, Joong-ah", he's not that dumb not to realised that her mother was cried worried about him. And so does his father.
He knew too that the two take their yearly leave so they could stay with him. Helping him getting better.
"Can we just stop tutored by her already?", just then she realised what was happening. That was the second time her son asked for it.
"Did she do anything to you?", his father asked which made him cried again. From that moment he told them everything as the mother couldn't help but crying knowing the woman had been abusing her son for God know how long that was.

...

"We can just declined the show, Joong", the older said to him.
"I'm sure I'll be able to get through this", HongJoong said. "It's been a long time ago. And I should get over it already", he trying to be professional. "We need this show, Hwa. So, we could expand more in future", the older just agreed with him faking his smiled.

'I'm sure I can get through this', he said to himself.

...

The member had been called by their company for a new show as everyone except HongJoong getting excited for it.

"It's been a while since we has a pack schedule", YunHo said excitedly.
"That's mean we've got time having fun", WooYoung said.
"But, what kind of show this time would be?", JongHo asked as everyone eyes on HongJoong who had been spaced out since a while.
"Hyung. HongJoong hyung", MinGi called. his name as he then looked at him.

"Mianh", he rubbed his neck. "What do you say again?", SeongHwa who had being quiet all the time looked at the leader with worried face.

"JongHo asked you what kind of game we will do this time", YeoSang speak up.
"I don't know", he said ignoring them.

San who had been staring at SeongHwa for a while getting his attention finally.
"You has something to talk about, San-ah?", SeongHwa asked him.

"Y/N noona was your past isn't it?", the two talked as other member being loud didn't care at all about their conversation.
"So?", he asked him back in annoyance.
"What's the past was?. Ex-girlfriend?", he looked at her with blank expression.
"Just my past, San", he said as San just sighed.

"What if you has to work with your past, will you be able to?", he asked making him confused.
"She just my past, nothing more", he assured him closed his eyes doesn't want to deal with San's question. 

"But your eyes say different when you look at her", he mumbled.
