  "I was just making plans with him yesterday," Jisung said.

    Minho held Jisung a little tighter.

  "This can't be happening,"

    "Daddy, papa?"

   Jisung and Minho wiped their tears when they heard Nari.

   "What's up, baby?" Minho asked.

   "Why are you guys crying?" She asked.

   Jisung pursed his lips, then patted his lap.

   "Are you sure you what to explain this to her now?"

   "They were her uncle's…she needs to know,"

   Minho nodded.

   Nari shuffled over and sat on Jisung's lap, "What's wrong, papa?"

    "Uhm, uncle Bokkie and uncle Jinnie were in an accident," Jisung was trying to find the right words.

    "Are they okay?" Nari asked.

   "No they aren't, sweetie. You remember when grandma was in the hospital?" Minho asked.

    It was clicking her head, tears welled up in her eyes.

   "They're not coming back?"

    "They aren't, bunny, I'm sorry," Jisung said.

    "But uncle Jinnie was going to teach me to paint and-and uncle Bokkie was going to bake cookies with me for Christmas!"

   More tears fell from Jisung and Minho's eyes, "We know, sweetie, but sometimes these things, they happened and we have no control over it," Minho said softly.

    Jisung held Nari close as she cried. He tried to keep himself together, but it was hard.

   It was too unfair.

     "Hyunjin, it is Jeongin. Seungmin and I are on our way back from out honeymoon. I wanted to check in to see how you and Felix, and the twins were doing. Call be back," Jeongin said.

    "He probably is busy. I mean you've seen his Instagram, he has a cute family," Seungmin said, zipping up his suitcase.

   Jeongin's phone started going off, "Oh, it is Yeji. Hey, Yeji. I was just trying to call Hyunjin," the ravenet said.

    "Jeongin, I need to tell you and Seungmin something. Is Seungmin with you?"

   "Yeah, he is, hold on,"

  Jeongin walked over to Seungmin and put the phone speaker, "You have both of us Yeji," Seungmin said.

    "There really isn't, uhm, an easy way to tell you guys,"

     "Yeji, are you okay? You sound like you've been crying," Jeongin said.

     "I'm trying to feel okay, uhm, Hyunjin is gone… he was in a car accident. The car flipped according to witnesses four times… Hyunjin was DoA and Felix Hyunjin's boyfriend, he died at the hospital… Sol and Selene, they are just barely hurt, but it is still going to have a big emotional and mental affect on them,"

   Jeongin couldn't find his voice.

    "I… I just talked with him last night. He was just fine last night," Seungmin said.

   "No, he was just at our wedding. They both were," Jeongin said.

    He didn't want to believe it. He couldn't believe it.

  Not when barely a week ago he was joking with Hyunjin about how he managed to get so lucky with Felix. Even if Hyunjin and Jeongin both knew that no matter what, Hyunjin would always love the twins' mom, they also knew that he loves Felix in a way that just couldn't seemed to be matched.

    "Jeongin, it is true," Yeji said.

    "How are Selene and Sol?" Seungmin asked.

   "We aren't entirely sure… when they got there Sol was unconscious, but Selene she was awake… she was crying for Felix and Hyunjin. When they got her to the hospital, she was in shock. Uhm, the doctor wants me, I pretty sure it is about Sol and Selene, I'll call you guys later," Yeji said.

  "Okay… take care, please," Seungmin said.

  "We will, bye,"

   Seungmin hung up.

       "Jeongin. Innie, darling," Seungmin said.

    "This shouldn't have happened," Jeongin stated. 

  Seungmin pulled Jeongin into a hug. Jeongin hated how Seungmin seemed so in control of his emotions.

   "I'm not as put together as I seem, Innie. It hurts so bad knowing. I want to deny it up and down, but I know that it will still be true," Seungmin whispered, his tears finally falling.

    "It's not fair. They lost one parent already and now they lost the other parent," Jeongin said.

      Seungmin pursed his lips and pulled away from Jeongin, his thumbs wiping the younger's tears.

   "Honestly, I don't think they lost just one parent in that accident. We saw them with Felix,"

   Jeongin shook his head, more tears falling, "This isn't fair, Seungmin, they should have to go through this,"

      "No, they shouldn't, but it's happening. All we can do is be there, be there for them. Tell them stories of stupid crap that Hyunjin did when we were young. Make sure that they remember the good stuff, not just the pain," Seungmin told him.

   Jeongin nodded.

   They just needed to be there.
