Because It's You | BOOK 3

Part 30

"Birthday Gift."

~

"Hmmm, wouldn't I really like that." Wonwoo said and stood up, removing Hana from being chained and pulled her motionless body by her arms. I felt a tear slid down as I looked at her, she isn't responding but I can still see her slowly breathing. I didn't want to think that she might die from hunger, dehydration and pain but it's hard not to think of.

God knows where was Hana taken and I really hope that jerk wouldn't take advantage of her.

A few minutes passed and I heard the door banged loudly that made me look up, the jerk entered holding his metal bat again and he walked towards me with a smirk that made me raise a brow at him.

"Where is she?" I asked and he knelt down to my height with that smirk turning into an evil smile.

"Oh you don't have to know about that anymore. After all, you'll never see her again." He said and I looked down and sighed.

"How many days has passed?"

"Hmm, I'd say it's been a week. But who's counting anyways?"

"Jihoon's birthday, tomorrow."

"Oh, isn't that lovely? I'm sure he'd be sad knowing daddy hasn't greeted him for his birthday—"

"Please, before you kill me. Just this last wish and for Hana to be safe." I begged and looked at him with conviction. The smile from his face disappeared and he stood up, hitting the metal bat on the floor that caused a loud noise that rings my ears.

"You know, I don't like it when people tell me what to do. But oh, I love this." He said and was about to leave but turned around to look at me again before shutting the door. "I'd be happy to send him a gift."

Mingyu's POV

A day has passed and I went out of my room and saw balloons everywhere, that's when I hit my head realizing that it's Jihoon's birthday.

"Uncle Gyu! Good morning!" Jihoon happily marched his way towards me and pulled me for a hug.

"Happy birthday, buddy!" I said and kissed his forehead. I looked at his eyes and saw right through him, I gave him a bitter smile and assured him.

"I know buddy, we'll do everything we can to find Mom and Dad, okay?"

"I hope they're okay, Uncle Gyu. I want to see Mom and Dad."

"I sure hope too." I said and Old Han suddenly appeared, confused and scratching the back of his neck.

"Uhh, Master Kim... A-A package arrived earlier today and.. uhmm..."

"What is it, Old Han?"

"It's a gift for Jihoon.. from.. u-uh..."

"From who?"

"Master Yoon."

"From Daddy??" Jihoon excitingly exclaimed and demanded to see the gift right away. Although confused as well, I asked Old Han to show us the package and it was in a box, wrapped beautifully in a wrapper with a 'happy birthday' stamped to it.

"Aaron! Look! Daddy gave me a present!" Jihoon happily showed Aaron the box, I know what Aaron was thinking and that worries me too. Jihoon seemed to be more occupied about what's inside than why would his dad just come over instead if he's okay?
