A month has passed since the devastating incident that shattered the Min family. Yoongi and Jooha have somehow managed to regain their footing, slowly putting kothemselves back together piece by piece. But Uncle Min… he hasn’t been the same since.

He’s completely withdrawn from us all—he eats alone, stays locked away in his study or room, and doesn't speak to anyone. At first, we all thought it would be best to give him some space, some time to grieve and process everything. But now, it’s been too long. The worry is gnawing at us, day by day, that he might fall into a deep depression and hurt himself. His once vibrant spirit feels lost in a fog of sorrow.

We’ve all tried—me, Yoongi, Jooha, and even Kate. We’ve each made our attempts to reach him, to console him, but each time, he shuts us down. It’s as if a wall has been built between him and the rest of the world, and no matter how hard we push, it’s unbreakable.

Even my father has tried. He arranged these bonding trips, casual getaways to rekindle their old friendship, hoping a change of scenery might help. But Uncle Min barely listens, always refusing to go. The stubborn silence he keeps wrapped around him is growing more concerning by the day. We’re all scared for him, not knowing what he’ll do next or how to help him through this unbearable pain.

Being betrayed by the woman who is the mother of his children has shattered him completely. The devastation of discovering that the person he trusted the most had been living a lie was too much for him to bear. It wasn’t just the betrayal; it was the years of deceit, the thought that all this time he had been building a life with someone who didn’t hold the same loyalty.

The wound was deep, cutting into his very soul. This wasn’t just a failed marriage—it was the destruction of the family he had dedicated his life to. Everything he thought he knew was turned upside down. Watching his children’s hearts break alongside his only made the pain worse. The weight of it crushed him, leaving him in a void where hope and trust no longer existed.

Yoongi:- "What are you thinking?" {He hugs me from behind as I lean against his chest}
Serah:- "Nothing just thinking about Uncle Min" {Yoongi let's out a deep breath putting his chin on my shoulder he falls silent as if it's an answer that he is also worried about his father but doesn't know how to solve it}

Serah:- I don't have good feeling about this, he might hurt himself like this
Yoongi:- What can we do. ? He wouldn't listen, he wouldn't talk . He just completely shuts us down if we try to approach him.
{Yoongi stated frustratingly as I took another deep breath}
Serah:- Don't worry baby we will find a way..

• Few days later •
Kate and I were sitting in the living room, watching as the maid cleaned out the storeroom. We were sorting through what to keep and what to throw away, a task that felt monumental considering everything that had happened recently.

Kate broke the silence first.

Kate: "I already feel like we’re Jooha and Yoongi’s wives after their mother left. The whole Min Mansion just dropped on us like a huge responsibility. Not that I mind, but I just didn’t imagine taking over these kinds of responsibilities in this way. You know what I’m saying?"

I sighed, feeling the weight of her words.

Serah: "Yeah... I can’t believe how everything changed. Their mother handled the mansion so perfectly. I never realized it’s this much to manage, even with servants around."

We both sat in a reflective silence, understanding how much things had shifted in such a short time, and how we had been forced to adapt to it all.

Kate pulled out an old photo album from the box, and we both leaned in closer, flipping through the pages. Each picture told a story of the Min family—their history, their happiness. There were countless photos of Yoongi and Jooha, both with their parents, back when life seemed simpler and whole.
