"He... he is still so...."

"That's why I am running away from you. I don't want my dad to know I have met you. Not until I become the CEO of this company. I need to do this until I am sure enough to have this home's back." Jake looks up at the home.
Sunghoon walks closer and hugs Jake, caressing his back, "It must have been hard for you... all alone."
Jake's eyes fills with tears as Sunghoon continues caressing his back.
"You must have been so lonely." Sunghoon's tear rolls down, "I am sorry. I wasn't there for you. I am sorry you had to be alone. I am sorry."
Sunghoon pulls away from the hug and wipes Jake's tears, "And now my ikeu-ya, it's okay. I'll make everything okay for you. This home, I can have it's back. You don't need to worry about it. The kids, I can have their back. My own company is already supporting the home. And they have stopped investing on my parents company since the contract expired. Heeseungie hyung and Jay has started working in my company."
"Hoon-ahh~" Jake looks up at him.
"Ikeu-ya, let's go. Let's run away. Let's put your worries aside. Let's pack lightly and run away. And let's not think about anything. Let's laugh heartily and play around like we used to, like you used to. I'll be with you, like this, holding your hands, holding you tight."
"Sunghoon-"
"Shhhhh." Sunghoon traces his lips, "You don't need to be afraid. I am here for you."
"And what about you? What about your needs? what about your worries?" Jake ask.
"If it's you, I don't need anything else. If I am with you together, there are no worries. If it's you by my side, I am not afraid of anything." Sunghoon smiles as Jake throws his head back in frustration, "Look at me, hmm? I am really really fine if it's you. I am happy as long as it's you."
"So, ikeu-ya, you just have to hold your hand out, I'll hold it tight and go anywhere with you. So, you don't need to worry about anything. I'll be by your side everytime. You can cry as much as you want, you can laugh as much as you want. You can do whatever you want to heal your heart. Let's run away until the light seeps back on your face." Sunghoon smiles, his eyes glistening with tears but still full of love and comfort for his Jake.
"And then Let's come back, bravely. Even if it takes a lot of time. Even if we have to walk slowly. Let's come back when you want. So, should we run away, anywhere you want, hmm?"
"Please." Jake nods, smiling
