"Jun Wan." a bruised Yeo Jun sat up in his bed
"Yeo Jun." Jun Wan perched himself on the side of the bed, his voice serious.
"Why are you calling me like that?" Yeo Jun was scared "Just call me Jun."
"Listen to me very carefully.From now on, you are on your own. You don't have a mom or a dad."
"why not?" Jun was confused.
"They're not your parents."
"Jun Wan." Yeo Jun's confusion was deepening. "But I have you."
"No. You have no one." Jun Wan replied.
"Why are you being like this?" Yeo Jun asked. "You're scaring me." He held on to his brother's hand.
"Don't tell anyone what happened today." Jun Wan cautioned. "Forget everything." He peeled his hands away from his little brother's and hastily left.
"No." Yeo Jun began to cry "Don't go.! Jun Wan!"
Yeo Jun crawled out of bed and headed quietly to Jun Wan's room. When his little legs finally reached the door he peeked inside.
Even without looking he could hear his brother crying inside.
"I'm so sorry Jun." Jun Wan was curled in a ball in the corner, as his tears flowed. "Jun. I'm sorry."
A thousand realizations dawned on Yeo Jun all at once.He'd been wrong.
"Jun." Soo Hyun approached him as he stood in a daze. "Are you alright?"
"Soo Hyun." Jun looked at him
"Yes. What is it?"
Jun's eyes were glassy with tears "Maybe my memories are wrong. It scares me."
"Are you afraid of finding out the truth?" Soo Hyun asked.
"No." Jun took a deep breath "I want to know."
"Then find out." Soo Hyun encouraged. "If you fix things now, you can start over."
Yeo Jun nodded. "I'm going to go back." he told Soo Hyun.
Soo Hyun patted his shoulder comfortingly. "Go."
Without hesitation, Yeo Jun took off, heading back to Seoul. As he was transported, those once hazy, distorted memories became clearer and clearer and for the first time since he was child, he could see the truth. The one who'd scared him, beat him, traumatized him so much was not his older brother...
"Dad." the name rolled off his tongue absentmindedly as he saw that face as clear as day.
Why do I have to go through this because of you?
Why?
You're crying?
How dare you cry?
Those memories of his father's abuse floated back to him one after the other.
"It wasn't you?" Yeo Jun asked his brother as they both stood on the bridge, overlooking the expansive lake. "The person who hit me that day.It wasn't you?" Jun Wan was silent. "Tell me." Jun demanded.
"It was Dad." his brother admitted.
"It was Dad. Not you?"
Jun Wan turned to face him. "Yes. It was dad."
