"Hyung." Little Jin called out to his brother Joonie, who was four year older, with a hopeful expression.

His Joonie hyung gave him a gentle smile, showing his dimples which SeokJin has always loved,

Kim Namjoon patted his head and asked. "Yes, baby. What happened?"

"My ball... it fell there..." Little Seok Jin pointed at the pond, where his yellow ball floated on the water.

Namjoon glanced at the ball and sighed.

"Baby, I can't swim. But I'll call someone to bring it for you, okay?"

"Okay." Little Seok Jin giggled, feeling grateful.

"Thank you, hyungie." Jin's smile warmed Namjoon's heart as he ruffled Jin's hair.

Their attention shifted when they saw their older brother, SeoJun, running around playing with a toy remote car,

"SeoJun, don't run around,"

Namjoon called out sternly, aware of the dangers of running near the water. Though SeoJun was older,

Namjoon was the more responsible and mature one.

Kim SeoJun, Kim NamJoon, and Kim SeokJin were the three sons of the Kim family, Kim Junwoo and Kim Eunchae.

SeoJun was the oldest at 10 years old, Namjoon was also 10 years old, but they were born in different months. Jin, on the other hand, was the youngest at 5 years old.

From the outset, the Kim family favored SeoJun and Namjoon the most, while harboring resentment toward SeokJin from the moment of his birth.

Expecting a daughter, they were disappointed when SeokJin arrived. To make matters worse, soon after his birth, the family faced bankruptcy, leading Mr. and Mrs. Kim to blame SeokJin for their misfortune.

That's why they have always hated him amd his existence.

Their attention and affection were reserved solely for Namjoon and SeoJun, who was currently absorbed in playing with his brand new car.

SeokJin couldn't help but pout as he watched his brother play with the toy car he had wanted.

But his mother bought it for his brother instead,
SeoJun, an arrogant child, often ignored everyone unless it was necessary.

SeokJin felt invisible to the rest of the family except for Namjoon, who was his closest confidant and source of love.

Whatever SeokJin was today was largely thanks to Namjoon's care and attention.

Jin cherished his "Joonie" hyung the most, finding solace and affection in his brother's company.

Despite Mr. and Mrs. Kim's neglect, Namjoon showered Jin with love and attention, which was enough for SeokJin to grow up as a kind-hearted child.

Sensing Jin's disappointment and sadness, Namjoon gently stroked his hair and reassured him,

"Baby, don't be sad. He'll let you play with it later."

"But I want to play now... I even lost my ball... SeoJun hyung, can I play?"

Little SeokJin asked, hopeful as he looked at the car.

"No need, go away,"

SeoJun snapped, annoyed as he continued playing, oblivious to Jin's feelings.

"Please give it to me... I'll play for a little time," SeokJin pleaded, his eyes filled with longing.

"SeoJun, let him play. He's your little brother. You should share,"

Namjoon urged, hoping to instill a sense of kindness in his older brother.
