This time it is different

Promise

"Guys, from today two new children will be joining our group. They both just lost their parents in an accident. Please be kind to them and let them feel welcomed", our caretaker told us on a sunny spring day. I was playing football with my two best friends, Donghyun and Youngmin.

"Poor them. Must be hard having known their parents and losing them then", Donghyun said. Even at a young age he always behaved like a mother to all of us.

"Guys, please come to your new family", the caretaker said.

Two guys made their way to the playground where all of us were playing. One guy was holding the other's hand tightly and he looked pretty shy.

He seemed to be younger. Not only that, but call me anything you want, but when I saw him I felt like I saw an angel. He had warm brown hair that seemed to glow in the sun. His eyes looked around us and he looked pretty shy biting his lips holding tightly onto the other boy. To sum up his features were out of this world, even though I hadn't seen that many people, because I was still young, he seemed to be the prettiest person on earth to me.

The other boy had black hair and looked mature to me, I was wondering how old he was.

The black haired boy started talking first. "Hello, my name is Howon. Lee Howon. I am seven years old and I like hip hop and dancing. Hopefully we all will become close friends. Sewoon-ah", he nudged the smaller boy" your turn."

The boy, Sewoon, took a deep breath and looked at Howon who nodded. "H-Hello m-my name i-is Lee Sewoon. I am three years old and I-I like p-playing the g-guitar and s-singing with it. And I-I like my H-Hyung. Please look after me kindly." He bowed again and I had to control myself as good as possible not to run to him and hug him tightly.

"You can't deny it. He is cute. How can he be just a year younger than me and in a year older than Donghyun", I wondered.

The two new boys were looking around and Sewoon hold onto Howon's arm. One of the older boys, Minhyun, who was 12 years old, went to Howon and asked him if he wanted to join their basketball game. He nodded but pointed at Sewoon.

"He can join our football game", I said and pointed at Youngmin and Donghyun. "I-I would like to", he answered in a shy voice. He looked at Howon and the said boy nodded.

Than he rushed to us.

"T-Thanks for letting me join you. I am Lee Sewoon." "And my name is Kim Jaehwan, this is Kim Donghyun and that old guy goes by the name of Im Youngmin", I introduced us.

Youngmin pouted smiled at Sewoon. "I am only two years older, I am six years old. You can call me Hyung."

Sewoon smiled brightly and nodded happily. "Okay, Youngmin-hyung!"

"Hyungs, let's continue our game! Sewoon-hyung, you are on my team. Maknaeline vs. Hyungline", Donghyun said and grabbed the ball.

"Looser has to wash the dishes", the two younger ran onto the field.

I smiled happily at the two boys.

"Seems like our family just grew", Youngmin said and smiled warmly while the young boys started kicking.

"Jaehwan-hyung! Catch me if you can", Sewoon said and rushed out of the door in order to get to the playground.

It's been a year that he and Howon had joined the orphanage and like Youngmin said at the playground our family had one more member. The four of us were barely apart.

I was still really young, only five, so I had no idea about my feelings, but I knew that Sewoon was really special to me.

During the last year we had barely left each other's side, not even for sleeping. We usually stayed together and cuddled like it was the most natural thing to do. Well, it was for us. Sleeping without him in my arms felt weird and I could not imagine how I had slept without cuddling him.
