Chanyeol:
6 years later, and now I am 28. Still performing with the guys. And never found news about her, ever again. While we were in our concert in America, we had a fan meeting. There were a lot of people, we also looked the same, our appearance didn't changed at all, we looked like teens. Signing lots of pictures and notebooks was very tiring for me, since we were stuck here since morning, and now was getting dark.
Oppa! Please! Marry me! "A girl shouted when I was signing her phone case"
Sure. "I said smiling" Where should we do it? "I laughed and she laughed too" Nice to meet you. "I said bowing my head and giving her phone case back"
Break time! "Our new manager shouted "
The other manager we had before, quit the job because he was kind of older to keep taking care of us. We're really going to miss him.
Waa I'm so tired! "Lay shouted when we came inside our studio room"
Our peace was doing perfectly, until someone knocked the door, and slowly opened it.
Little girl, may we help you? "Sehun asked"
Annyeonghaseyo. "She said bowing, hugging a paper with her arms"
She started looking around, I think she was looking at our faces. I was sitting next to D.O, she looked at me and when she was about to look at D.O she stared at me, looked at the paper and then faced me again. Her eyes were wide opened. She walked closer to me, slowly, and smiled. She looked at the paper again and then looked at me.
What's wrong with her? "Baekhyun asked chuckling"
Do you want a picture? "I asked patting her head like if she was a little dog"
Are you...Park Chanyeol? "She asked with a tiny smile"
Ne, I am. "I said with a smile" How older you?
I'm 6 years old. "She said"
She didn't look like if she was a modern little girl, you know, with makeup, Iphone, computers, she looked quite...unique.
You are...exactly like she told me. "She mumbled"
Did you say something? "I asked with a smile because I didn't hear her"
Still looking at me, she gave me that paper, it was kind of old, with dust drops. I smiled and chuckled when I looked at it. But then...my smile and laughed suddenly dissapeared. I fast looked at that girl, in shock. She smiled, with watery eyes.
What's your name? "I asked" Who's your mother? Where is she?
My name is Park Key Chan. People call me Keychan. "She said still with watery eyes"
Park Key...Chan? "I asked and she nod" Where did you get this? "I asked waiting for answers"
Yah, Chanyeola, what's happening here? "D.O asked confused"
Why is the atmosphere like this? "I heard Suho whispering"
My mommy drew it... "She said and a tear fell"
Your...mommy? "I asked with watery eyes" Who is she? Where is she right now? "I asked getting up from the chair where I was sitted in"
She is -"our manager cut her off when he grabbed her by her little arm"
You cannot be here! "He shouted"
She looked at him and pushed him away, taking away the drawing from my hands and running away.
Yah! Wait! "I shouted running after her"
Should I grabbed her for you, Cahnyeol? "He asked"
Are you crazy? Why did you do that?! She's just a little girl! "I said still running after her" Wait!
She was so fast. I could see all her outfit. She was wearing a pink hoodie with a white skirt and pink leggings, with pink convers, she looked quite cute. She also had a backpack on her back, which seemed to have almost nothing inside. Lots of fans were watching me run, they were all shouting my name, like if I was going to keep signing for them. That little girl stopped running when she tripped with a fan.
Yah! Look where you're running! Are you blind?! "She shouted to Keychan"
Aniyo, I'm sorry. "She apologized bowing"
Isn't your mother taking care of you?! You almost broke my phone?! If you do, how in hell am I going to take pictures to EXO?! "She shouted and pushed Keychan making her to fall on my feet"
Oh? Chanyeol Oppa! Take a picture with me! "That girl shouted taking out her phone"
Be quiet! How do you dare to push a child like that?! "I shouted and she looked at me in shock" Get up. "I said helping Keychan to get up"
I grabbed her arm and she grabbed that drawing, with all her strenght. That girl stared at me and at Keychan.
You both...look similiar Oppa... "That fan said curious"
I sighed and left with Keychan to the studio with the guys, but they were not here, which was perfectly for me to ask some questions. I sat her on a chair and I did too, putting mine closer and in front of her. I had a nice look, I didn't want to scare her.
You told me your name was Keychan, right? "I asked and she nod, still hugging the drawing" You are 6 years old, huh? I wish I could have that age? I remember when my dad used to make me massage all his body, it was disgusting. "I said joking and she chuckled, I did too" Your mommy drew this? "I asked taking it from her arms"
Ne, she did. "She said smiling" It's pretty, isn't it? "She asked with a tiny smile"
Yeah. "I nod with watery eyes"
Why was this the same drawing Keylana did of me?
Where's your mommy? "I asked and she looked down"
In heaven. "She said sad, and then looked at me" She's in heaven.
How do you know she's there? "I asked with a tiny smile"
Because before leaving, she told me she was going to a better place and that she was not going to be alone. Days later, she was having difficulties, the doctors took her away from me and told me she was in heaven. "She said sad" After that, they didn't even let me to see her or stay with her, the only thing I had of her was the drawing, a big teddy bear she really loved, and some papers.
Mianhe...can you tell me... What her name was? Your mommy's name? "I asked sniffing with a smile"
Her name was Keyla. "She said with watery eyes"
I stood up from the chair and walked some steps away, tearing up.
Why are you here? Alone? "I asked heading to her"
She told me that since she was here in Korea, she met someone. She also told me that she drew him, and told me that he was my daddy. "She said looking at the drawing that was in my hands" You look...like him. "She said with tears"
I didn't know what to say...
She told me that his name was Park Chanyeol. "She explained"
I closed my eyes and nod, with a smile and tears. I kneeled down and smiled at her. I placed my hand on her cheek and cleaned a tear she had. I looked closely at her and she smiled.
Are you my daddy? "She asked with her childish, mature, and cute voice"
"I chuckled" You look...exactly like her. "I said sniffing"
She opened her eyes wide opened and then smiled. She looked at my hand, and slolwy, placed hers on it, feeling it.
She was right. "She mumbled" Your hands are warm. "She touched my ears" And your ears are like a wolf. "She chuckled"
She told you all that? "I asked tearing up"
"She nod" And more, she talked about the day she saw you for the first time.
I chuckled and looked at her eyes, Keyla's eyes. I sighed and hugged her. She hugged me back too, sniffing.
Ah, that's right. "She said looking at me"
What is it? "I asked with a smile"
She told me to give you two things if I bet to find you. "She said taking out an evelope and handing it to me, then she pushed herself closer to me and pecked my cheek" She told me to give you a kiss.
I chuckled and looked down. I hugged her again, her little body, felt like flowers to me.
Some minutes passed and I was in the studio with Keychan, I prepared her some Ramen with a bowl of rice that I found in the fridge. I can say she was hungry, also, she was skinny.
Where are you staying? "I asked while looking at how she was eating"
Um...I actually sleep everywhere...some warm place. "She said ashamed" Since mommy left, some people wanted to take me away to a new house where a lot of kids like me are without they mommys. I'm always hiding from them... "she looked down"
Talk to me about your mommy. "I said" She was sick, right?
Yeah, but she was not like other mommys. She was different, in personality and appearances. "She said with a cute smile"
Appearance? "I asked confused"
Ne. "She nod" She didn't have hair.
My heart almost stopped, I wasn't there for her.
Where were you living? "I asked"
I was born in a hospital. Granny and Grandpa died in a car accident, so mommy and I had to stay in that hospital for the rest of our life, until she decided to leave. "She gave me a small smile"
I see... "I said looking down"
I decided to take her to where we were staying, in a hotel here in America. I was trying to plan what to do with her. All the guys were sleeping in the same room, except me and her. Of course I was not going to let her sleep in streets! She took a bath and wore a tshirt that I had, I gave her a big one. And there she was, sleeping in the bed, on my belly. She wanted me to pat her hair so she could fell asleep fast, because Keyla used to do that. I think that's an habit she took from me, I loved when Keyla patted my hair so I could take a nap. Without waking up Keychan, I placed her little head on a pillow, and I sat on a desk, I wanted to see what was in that big envelope that Keyla left me.
It was a big envelope. Even just to look at it made me tear up and sniff. I opened it and took out a lot of papers. There was a medium envelope and a tiny one that said Chanyeol. I took a big breath and opened it. I chuckled with tears and started to gasp slowly, it was a letter written by Keyla, for me. It even had a date, September, 14 2020. And today was August, 26 2022. I loved her hand writting in a way that I couldn't even describe, I slowly toched it. The paper was so soft. It had like three pages, I really didn't, I just wanted to read them. When I was about to read them, Keychan got up, startled.
Mommy? "She asked sleepy"
I got up from the desk and head to her, she looked scared.
Hey sweety. "I said sitting next to her" It was just a nightmare, go back to sleep.
Mommy said you can sing. "She said and I sighed with a smile" Can you...sing for me? "She asked" Please! Just once! I promise I'll sleep fast! "She said with a puppy face"
Arraseo. "I said laying right next to her"
She placed her head again on my belly and I placed my hand on her head, patting it. I started singing When I Look At You, the first song Keyla and I sang in our first concert. She fell asleep fast, I kissed her forehead and head again to the desk. I started reading the letter with my chin and mouth on my hand, in case if I get to cry.
