Coming Back To You | JENSOO [18+]

Chapter Twenty-One: Yoshi and Lia

Jisoo searched the house yelling out for her son and his best friend.

"Baby boy," Jisoo looked into the little boy's bedroom. "Yoshi, where are you?"

Hearing giggling from the closet, Jisoo walked further into the room.

"I guess I'll have to eat ice cream alone," Jisoo sat on the bed and sighed dramatically.

"No, no, I want ice cream!" Yoshi said as he popped out of the closet.

"Do you? But what about Jisu? I guess we will have it without him." Jisoo went to tickle the young boy's sides and stomach but stopped abruptly when he screamed.

"Yoshi, what's wrong?" Jisoo asked holding the boy close as he began to cry silently. "Did I hurt you?"

Jisoo was confused, she had played with the young blonde boy many times and he had never reacted this way.

"No," the little boy mumbled into her chest. He gripped tighter and yelled when she grabbed his sides to pull him closer.

She looked down into brown eyes that were filled with tears.

"Why are you crying, Yoshi?" Jisoo asked gently trying to understand what had upset the boy.

"My tummy hurts," Yoshi said sadly.

"Well, I don't know about you, but when my stomach hurts kisses help," Jisoo lifted the boy's shirt but was abruptly stopped when tiny hands grabbed her own.

The motion was too late. Jisoo's eyes widened in horror and she pulled the young boy's shirt entirely off. Dark purple bruises and cuts were across his back and abdomen. His stomach was swelling and cigarette burns littered his chest.

"Yoshi, who did this to you?" Jisoo asked as calmly as she could.

The three-year-old shook his head refusing to answer the question. Tears continued to stream down his face as his head hung and he stared at the ground. Jisoo pulled his shirt back on and picked him up careful not to aggravate his injuries.

Picking up her phone, she called Jennie.

"Hello?"

"Can you come home?"

"I can't, my last client is coming in to finish his tattoo finally."

"I need to take Yoshi to the ER, I think he may have internal bleeding."

"What?"

"He's in my arms right now I'll text you when I get to the hospital. Do you know anyone who can keep Jisu? Everyone I can think of is out today."

"Call my dad, tell him it's an emergency. Don't forget to call his dad and tell him there was an accident."

"This was no accident and I'm pretty sure he did this," Jisoo's voice was laced with venom.

Jisoo could hear Jennie gasp sharply.

"Ask for Doctor Kang Seulgi, she's the best. I'll call ahead and let her know you're coming." Jisoo could hear the hardness in Jennie's tone.

"Thanks, I love you."

"I love you, too."

After hanging up, Jisoo called Seunghyun who agreed without questions to watch Jisu.

"Baby boy, come out now. Play times over and Pop Pop is coming over," Jisoo called out over the intercom throughout the house.

Settling a now calm Yoshi in front of the TV to watch cartoons. Jisoo turned in time to see Jisu sneaking out of the hallway closet but pretended not to notice.
