Yoon clutched Sunoo tightly, tears streaming down his cheeks. "I miss you so much, Sunoo," he whimpered, his small frame shaking with sobs.
Sunoo, surprised, knelt down and gently rubbed Yoon's back. "But you just left a few hours ago. Why are you so sad?" Yoon looked up with tear-filled eyes, "It feels like forever without you." Sunoo smiled, and hugged Yoon even tighter, offering comfort.
Sunoo scooped up Yoon in his arms, cradling him like a fragile treasure, and carried him inside. Yoon clung to Sunoo. As they entered the house, Sunoo whispered, "I'll always come back, Yoon. You're not alone." Yoon nodded, his tears slowly subsiding, reassured by Sunoo's presence.

Sunghoon's concerned voice echoed through the phone as he asked, "Hey, Sunoo, is Yoon with you?"
Sunoo glanced down at Yoon, still in his arms, and replied, "Yeah, he's here. He was feeling a bit down, so I stayed with him for a while."
Sunghoon sighed in relief, "Thanks for letting me know. I was worried."
"Everything is fine now, by the way, how did you find my number?" sunoo asked.
"I asked the policeman that I met yesterday..., I will come there soon, please take care of him."
"Ok... And don't worry about him." sunoo reassured.

As the evening sun cast warm hues across the city, Sunghoon knocked on Sunoo's apartment door. Sunoo opened it, and Sunghoon greeted him with a grateful smile. "Thanks for looking after Yoon earlier. Is he okay now?" Sunghoon asked. Sunoo nodded, "He's doing better.".
Sunghoon entered the apartment and found Yoon peacefully asleep on the couch. A soft smile formed on Sunghoon's face as he watched his son, realizing the genuine care Sunoo had provided.
"Thank you for being here for him," Sunghoon whispered to Sunoo. Sunoo gestured towards the sleeping Yoon, "He's a strong little guy. We had some good talks." Sunghoon nodded appreciatively, grateful for the friendship that offered comfort to his son.
Yoon stirred on the couch, blinking sleepily as he became aware of his surroundings. Spotting both Sunghoon and Sunoo, he sat up with a yawn. Sunghoon ruffled Yoon's hair, "Feeling better? " Yoon nodded, casting a shy smile at Sunoo.
Sunghoon gently approached Yoon, crouching down to his eye level. "Yoon, we should head home now," he said softly. Yoon hesitated, looking at Sunoo with a pleading expression. "I want to stay with him. I feel comfortable here," Yoon insisted.
Sunghoon sighed, "I understand, but it's getting late, buddy." Yoon's eyes welled up with tears, and he clung to Sunoo. "Please, Dad, I don't want to go," he sobbed. Sunghoon, torn, hugged Yoon tightly, "I know, but we need to go home."
