IMMORTAL CYBORG || LEE HONGBIN

CHAPTER 4

"Satang-ah, don't be naughty and just bite him if he does something to you okay?" Heeyoung patted her dog's head while Eunwoo stared at her in disbelieved.

"Yah, you should thank me that I'm taking care of your dog, who's nicer? Me or you who doesn't take him when you're out if country?" This time Eunwoo stick his tongue out and as usual they started their mouth fight.

Both of their moms shook their heads and smiled. "They are like siblings, always there for each other, if I'm gone, I don't even have to worry about her since Eunwoo always by her side and treat her like a sister." Eunwoo's mom frowned before she rubbed Minseo's shoulder.

"Don't say anything like that, Eunwoo is lucky to have Heeyoung as his friend. He's always strive to be perfect in whatever he did that at some point I don't even see him interacting with people. When Heeyoung became his friend, I can see his playful side and I know that they are just good for each other."

"I cannot agree more about that haha, aigoo Heeyoung-ah where's your father? We might miss our flight. Go call your father at the inside." She turned to ask her daughter and Heeyoung nodded before she walked into the house. She didn't see her father at the first floor so she started to find at the second floor where she heard he was talking in the room.

"Appa..?" She whispered because it seems like he was still talking on the phone. She peeked and eavesdrop her father's conversation with someone.

"What's wrong with that Hyunmi-yah? Its all his own decision to decide who he's gonna give all that."

"I didn't mind that but whats with a large share for your daughter? I mean he can just give it to his children and your part can be given to your daughter when you di-"

"Hyunmi-yah. I have no idea that you are really greed over something like this. He just gone and you'e already worried about the amount of his assets? Well, if you want my share, you can take it but you know that he wanted to give something to Heeyoung, so let it be."

"Oppa, I'm not greedy or what but I'm questioning why must almost half of his wealthy must be given to only your Heeyoung? And another half have been divided into 3 and mostly like 3 over 4 of his's are now belong to you, is it that fair? He can just include your share into Heeyoung so at least she doesn't have to handle that share by herself she's jus-"

"Jang Hyunmi. Please. What are you going to do now? Its already stated on the paper. He already did the will. We just have to follow it. And I'm going to handle Heeyoung's share until she's 25 since she's still underage. The decision is final, and you're handling his farm and factory isn't that enough?"

"Appa.." Her father turned to her and raised his eyebrows. Heeyoung pretended not to hear it and smiled "Eomma is asking where you are, taking so much time that we might miss the flight hehe"

"Flight? What flight? Oh, Now you're going to enjoy the money? Oppa??"

"Okay dear in a minute, go down first." He distanced the phone from his ear and waited until he heard the door closed before he continued. "Can you just stop interfering my life? Do you think I don't have my own  money to go outside of the country? I've works to do and never. Ever. Try to call Heeyoung, don't make yourself look like a pathetic aunt to her. She's still young. I'm hanging up."

She closed the car's door and slided down the window to held her dog's paws for the last time. She giggled and got to whisper something to Eunwoo "please inform sunbae that I'm going" She teased him and quickly closed the window. She saw he mouthed "Jugeullae? (wanna die?)" and laughed before they waved and left to the airport.

Eunwoo watched the car lost in his sight before he quickly dialed someone while walking towards his house with satang in his arm.

"Hello?"

"Lee Hong Bin? I think we should have a talk."

Hongbin sipped a coffee before he started transferring pictures and videos from the camera to the laptop. He started his work again by combining those things into the categories when someone interrupted him.

"Hongbin-ah." Hakyeon looked at him with an emotionless face. He sat at the edge of Hongbin's bed before he started to touch his head. "When do you want to start restarting? I think its almost new year."

Hongbin looked at him and nodded. "yeah soon. Why, are you unwell? How about the others?" Hakyeon slowly nodded before he started to hold his head again and moved it side to side, trying to make it less pain.

"I've..started to forget things..I forgot how to do some daily things. It keeps coming on and off my head.." He sighed before he continued. "You remembered right about what I said to you when you decided to do this?"

Hongbin stared at him and nodded.

"You said you wanted to remember each moments in your life without forgetting even a little piece of it. You agreed to lose something as a way to pay for those great memories."

"Yes. You do remember. I agreed to give you my soul so you can make me into this. I remembered everything except one.."

"Your family. You said you didn't want to know or recognize them but you did see their faces because its your wish to keep all the memories about each person that you know. You may have seen them somewhere in your memories but you will never figured out that they are your family..Why? Do you now wish you know your family?"

Hakyeon shook his head "I live with them, in my memories so its fine no-"

"Cha Eunwoo."

"What? Who.."

"The only person I want you to know as your family member is Cha Eunwoo. I let you know now because after restarting you back, you will not remember him anyway."

~  ~  ~  ~  ~

Eunwoo looked into Hongbin's eyes with a lot of questions. Hongbin might not noticed him but he has already watched over him since they were at high school.

"So what do you want to talk about?" Hongbin stirred the tea and waited for Eunwoo.

"After so long, why did you return and show yourself in front of us?"

Hongbin took a deep breath before he replied. "Did you not trust me when I want to befriend with Heeyoung? I want to befriend with you too if you're fine with it. I come when its time for me to come. I'm not hiding, nor planning to do something to you guys." He sincerely explained to Eunwoo.

"How can I believe you that easy. You knew me since high school do you think I don't have any idea about that?" Eunwoo made a fist "When you guys, VIXX went to Sweden and something happened there, do you think no one knows? They might, Heeyoung might, but I knew what happened."

Hongbin tried to control his expression. He knew that normal people wouldn't know about what happened back then but looking at Eunwoo, he noticed that guy has been searching a lot about him. Probably finding something. "Do you angry because of what Hakyeon told you about at that time?"

"So you do know about it. You know why he made that decision. Neo.. (you..)" Eunwoo tighten his jaw.

"Eunwoo-yah, thats happened long time ago. I stopped doing that. Thats why I'm taking my time to come back. Whats the point of doi-"

"So where are they now? Where's my cousin? Where's Cha Hakyeon?"
