Tied to a Dino (My Sly Fox Sequel)

Chapter 47: Bye

[DIDN'T RE-READ THIS SO SORRY FOR ERRORS.]

Yuhan quietly watches from his seat at the dining table as Yerin wander around the kitchen, preparing his breakfast, and he's looking cautiously, yet worriedly at her. Yuhan woke up and realized that his mother is being extremely quiet for the past days, though she still acts jolly when playing with him.

"Umma...", he called his mother.

"Yes baby?", Yerin placed his food in front of him with a smile.

Yuhan didn't talk, he just looked up to Yerin with a worried look. He was about to ask if she is sick when Jonghyun came in to the kitchen. Both their eyes went to him but Yerin retrieved her look after a second.

Yuhan grinned at his Appa as a greeting when he sat beside him at the table, and Jonghyun smiled back at him, patting his head. Yuhan then looked at Yerin, expecting her to sit with them but he saw that she's about to walk away after she finished setting the table.

"Umma why not eat?", he asked, pouting slightly.

Yerin smiled at him. "Umma is still full. I will eat later. I'll clean the bedrooms first."

Yuhan wanted her to stay but he cannot protest. He just sadly watched her mother walk away while on the other hand, Jonghyun stayed silent, only looking at the plate in front of him as if no one left.

"Appa... Is umma sick?"

Jonghyun looked at Yuhan and for the first seconds, he didn't know what to say but he just decided to project a fake smile in front of him.

"Maybe." he replied shortly then he pulled Yuhan's plate near so he can feed him.

"Umma is quiet... Is she sad because she's sick?", Yuhan asked again before taking the food being fed to him.

Jonghyun stared at Yuhan, measuring him. He doesn't want to tell lies to his son but he's worried that he might not understand. He ended up sighing.

"It's my fault, baby. Appa made umma sad. I'm sorry.", he touched Yuhan's cheek.

"Why you say sorry to Yuhannie?", Yuhan's brow furrowed. "You should say sorry to Umma."

"It won't be that easy.", Jonghyun answered as if Yuhan can really understand their situation.

Yuhan scratched his head. "Appa, it's easy. You though Yuhannie to say sorry. Just say SO-RRY, then you bow like this...", he jumped down from his seat, then demonstrated a polite bow, like what he has been thought.

Though Jonghyun is feeling down, he managed to chuckle at Yuhan's action. He sat him back again to his chair then he pulled the chair closer to him so that they could talk nearer with each other.

"Appa has something to tell you...", he said face to face while holding his little hand. Yuhan just remained looking at him, nodding, while waiting for his next words.

Jonghyun sighed. Yuhan still doesn't know about his business trip to China when it's just few days before he leaves. He kept worrying that it might upset him but he cannot hide it to him as he'd be more upset to be surprised with his departure.

"And you have to do some things for appa...", he said to which Yuhan nodded without hesitation, then Jongyun started telling him.
