This room.

Being thrusted forcefully to the ground like this pulled Yeo Jun back into his dark past.

"Get in you little brat." his father spat casting the little boy aside without care. He grabbed an award from his desk and raised his hand high above his head "And you call yourself a man?" he hurled insults at the crying child.

Being in this room Yeo Jun could hear the screams and cries of his younger self.

"You don't want to?" His father was now angry. "How dare you? Say that again." His expression was ugly as he rolled up his sleeves. "Must I seem like a loser because of you?" he slammed his hand against the cabinet. "Must I? Must I Must I?" he slapped the furniture everytime he asked. 

Yeo Jun watched . His horror and fear inextricably bound. 

"You inept piece of trash!" he swept everything from his desk is a rage.  "Do you know what should become of useless brats like you?" he threw an item at Yeo Jun 

His father reached for that trophy again and raised his hand.

Yeo Jun caught that raised hand, struggling to take that trophy away.

Outside the door, frantic banging could be heard

"Jun. Open the door! Jun!" Jun Wan called.

"Let go!" his father tried to free his hand.

"Father stop this..." Yeo Jun cried.

"Move!" his father bellowed, wrestling still

"Let go of me---"

"Please stop!"

"Jun open the door!"

It was a chaotic scene in the Yeo household.

"Let go!" his father finally managed to free himself, casting Yeo Jun once more to the floor.

He raised that trophy high above his head .."You little..."

With nowhere to run, Yeo Jun cradled his head and braced for impact.

The door suddenly flew open, halting everyone in their positions.

"Jun-Wan." his father was surprised.

Jun Wan looked at his father with bloodshot eyes.

"Jun Wan.." Yeo Jun's voice broke hen he saw his brother.

"Leave us." Jun Wan commanded his little brother, still looking at his father.

"Jun Wan...you see.." Yeo Jun tried to explain.

With tender eyes, Jun Wan looked at his little brother. "Go."

"Jun Wan.." Yeo Jun was trying his best not to cry.

Jun Wan reached out and helped his brother to his feet before ushering him out the door, closing it behind him.


With Yeo Jun gone, Jun Wan turned to his father who immediately dropped the trophy.

"Jun Wan. It's not like what you saw."

Jun Wan grabbed his father by the lapels "You.Have you been beating him behind my back?" 

"Jun Wan. Listen to me," his father's words were a little slurred 

Jun Wan tightened his hold "I warned you that Jun's off limits."

"But that little brat acted out.." his father replied.

That was it. Jun Wan threw his father into the table. Upon impact, his father groaned in pain.

"You've gotten weaker." Jun Wan said "It hurts me to see that.Doesn't this get old for you?" He took deliberate steps towards his father who was cowering at the desk. "Haven't you done this enough?Just stop darn it!" he shouted.
