Myungho was listening to the story, his heart swelling with emotion at its beauty. Li Na, sitting close by, looked back and forth between her father and Myungho. Her innocent eyes shone with unshed tears as she asked, "But where is Mama now, Dada?"
The question pierced Myungho's heart. He took a deep breath, his voice soft as he began, "You know, Li Na, I had a baby just like you, like Mama." He placed a gentle hand on his stomach, a bittersweet smile on his face. "But she's with God now."
Li Na's gaze lingered on him, processing the words. "So that's where my Mama went?" she whispered, seeking comfort.
Junhui remained silent, the pain in his eyes mirroring Myungho's own. Myungho turned to Junhui, seeking reassurance, a glimmer of hope. Junhui met his eyes and thought, *What would you say if your child is alive, Myungho? Please, come back.*
Breaking the silence, Myungho asked, "What was the name of your mate, Junhui?"
Junhui's face softened into a small smile as he replied, "Minghao. Wen Minghao."
Myungho's world stopped. The name hit him like a thunderbolt, sending shockwaves through his entire being. His heart pounded in his chest as he stared at Junhui, realization dawning with every beat.
Junhui's composure crumbled, his eyes brimming with a depth of emotion Myungho had never seen. In that instant, Myungho understood. Junhui’s mate shared his name—Wen Minghao.
"Don't worry," Junhui said quietly, attempting to ease the tension, "There are many Minghaos in the world."
Yet those words only deepened the ache in Myungho’s heart. A forbidden truth clawed at his consciousness: his own inexplicable attraction to Junhui. A connection that now, more than ever, seemed destined and undeniable.
