Consequences

I started teaching again and having the kids makes me less anxious. Although I’m still picking up some pieces of my identity; I still continue acting as a good son in my family and I’m still trying to conceal who I really am in front of Beomgyu hyung.

“Good morning,” I heard his hoarse voice and a tighten hug greeted me early in the morning with a morning peck of kiss on my lips.

“Good morning, hyung,” I greeted him back and buried my face on his chest. “How’s your sleep?”

“Always better whenever you’re with me,” he replied, eyes closed.

I let out a chuckle, “Too early to say cheesy, hyung.”

“Sorry,” he laughs. “Let’s do our best today, okay?”

“Yes,” I agreed and move to look at him. I reach his face and kiss his lips as well. “Thank you, hyung…”

“For?” he asks, smiling.

“Everything…”

Beomgyu hyung and I started our day with the kid’s breakfast and went to classes right away. After my time, I went back to our room to change clothes then I noticed the teddy bear on hyung’s closet.

“You’re still here,” I whispered. “Was the scarf able to give you warm, huh? I hope hyung uses this too during winter,” I added a chuckle at the end.

I’m sorry if I took long enough to come back. I didn’t know what’s really going on but once I’ll figure it out, I’ll make sure to clear everything and start new.

I still have a lot of free time so I decided to meet Woo Hyun—or should I call him Jaechan from now on— in the Downtown’s port. I brought some cold drinks with me as I waited for him. I sat on the seawall while facing the ocean.

“Taehyun,” I heard him call my name, omitting the ‘hyung’ since I know he already figured it out as well. He sat next to me and said, “Whoa! You’re scary, you know that?”

“And why is that?” I frown.

“Well, things are just so accurate,” he answered. “How are you? Until where you can remember?” he asks.

“I still have long way back,” I answered and take a sip of my drink. “Why didn’t you visit me right away when I wake up?”

“I’m busy,” he replied and my brow rose. “Hey! Don’t you know how many 90-day contracts I’m handling for five years? This is all your fault, punk,” he complained.

I laugh at it since it’s so weird hearing him rants while in his child form. “I’m sorry, I didn’t know about that,” I apologized instead. “But I’m curious, why did I plan my accident?”

He made a pause and stares at me for seconds. “I don’t know? Why Taehyun? Why were you so desperate to get hit by a car?” he asks me back.

“Hey, I’m serious,” I warned him.

“Same here,” he answered then looks away and inhales. “You were eager to save someone. You said that was the last resort,” he said.

“Who? Beomgyu hyung?” I guess.

“Maybe? Maybe not? Can be him or can be yourself,” he pauses and look at me. “Maybe it’s someone else.”

“Hey stop playing around the bush and tell me already! How am I supposed to plan things out when I can’t remember anything?” I scolded him.
