They ate their breakfast silently as Heeyoung was also there as she thought Hongbin's father might went to work and his mom might be alone.. while in fact there are 8 people there including her at the dining table. She was having conversation as usual with Dawon while Hakyeon was deeply staring at her.

"I feel like I knew her so well before this..but I can't even remember how and when.." He moved his hand and suddenly hit his glass and it scattered into pieces near Heeyoung and hurt her toe a bit.

She quickly reflected and frowned. "Are you..okay emmeonim? Did you hurt?" She started to feel worried and wanted to stand up but Dawon quickly let her sit back and asked Hyuk, her always dependable other son to sweep the floor quietly.

"No..no it's okay.." She held Heeyoung and turned to look at Hakyeon who was feeling like not himself before asking him to go to his room. Taekwoon brought him to the rooftop with the rest while Hyuk was still sweeping the floor. "I lost my focus earlier so the glass accidentally fall down. Oh my..look at your toe, its bleeding." She ran to take a first aid kit at the kitchen and came back to Heeyoung.

Heeyoung put her spoon and fork down before she turned to her right and let Dawon put a bandage on her toe. She smiled. "I'm fine and its just a scratch so I don't feel anything.." Even though its a bit sting for her, she thought there's no point of whining in pain as she cannot even see her injured toe. She noticed that there's a noise like someone sweeping the floor. "Is someone else here emmeonim?"

Dawon looked up and turned to see that Hyuk was sweeping the glass pieces and made a noise. She started to make an excuse "yeah.. There's a maid in this house, so if you hear anything and feel like its not me, than its the maid.. but he's always so silent so you don't have to worry about that." She then started to clean up the table as everyone has finished their meals.

"ouh.. the maid is a guy? Nice to meet you..uh.." Heeyoung smiled and started to just bowed anywhere as she didn't know where Hyuk was standing. He cleared his throat and bowed as well. " I'm sorry I didn't know that there's someone else in this house.. I feel like I can make a new friend even in this house right..?" She showed her hand to shake with his's but he kinda hesitated.

"uh.. ne.. me too.." He changed his voice and shook with her.

"You are not sick.. right? Because your voice..is a bit hoarse.." She raised her eyebrows and smiled when he shook her hands, his hands felt soft like is he really a maid?

"uh..I..I.." He was thinking so hard to answer when suddenly Dawon touched Heeyoung's shoulder. Hyuk sighed in relieved.

"I will take you to the living room and walk around this house." She led Heeyoung and let her sit at a single chair facing the balcony and the green trees at the outside. Heeyoung inhaled and felt like the surrounding of the house was so fresh and comforting.

"Are there a lot of trees here? Because I feel so calm and relaxing." She smiled and Dawon opened the balcony door to let the morning air flowed inside.

"Yes indeed there are.. This house is located at the mountain so the distance of the house is far from the other houses to avoid any disturbing situations.." Heeyoung just let her mouth opened because she didn't know that the house was so far because she knew its hard to buy a mountain house because its the most expensive land in Korea, and was wondering how he can drive from the mountains to the city as its quiet far.

"There's a lot of things that I wished I can do in my younger times.." Dawon turned to look at her and Hyuk was standing nearby to listen to it.

"For example?" Hyuk asked, and then quickly closed his mouth with his hands.

Heeyoung smiled. "Ouh, you're here as well?" She inhaled and exhaled. "Well... I studied hard in art.. and the most important thing in art is your eyes. Without eyes, how can you able to just draw without looking at the reference? People can draw with hands, legs or even using mouth but eyes is a must." She looked down and hid her tears. "Now that my world is dark.. how can it possible for me to draw my comic? To draw anything or even to do anything with my hands?"

"Its okay.. you can do something else, blind people didn't exist for no reason.." Dawon squeezed her shoulder softly and she looked up.

"How..? How is it posi-"

"Lee Hongbin's happiness." Hyuk interfered. He stared at her sincerely.

"Excuse me?"

"You're here to become Lee Hongbin's happiness. When we were born, we have a thing that was connected to us and you might be Hongbin's and Hongbin might be yours. Its something people called destiny. You might feel like you lost everything, but Lee Hongbin was there to complete your life back, its like you have a reason to keep living but now as his happiness. The way you are just here even doing nothing made him happy and that's what you're supposed to do. Keep making him happy."

Heeyoung listened every words that Hyuk said and felt amazed but somehow she felt so familiar with the voice. He used his real voice and it was different from earlier. "wow..thank you so much for comforting me.. you sound like someone that I have known for so long.." She wiped her tears and fixed her hair. "Maybe you're right.. If I become positive in my life, he would be happy and by that I would have a better life as well.. so it sounds like God gave me other task than becoming something that I want my parents to be proud of."

The rest of VIXX went to the rooftop and lied down. Taekwoon noticed Hakyeon stared at the green views so he stood beside him.

"What's wrong?"

"I feel like I knew her. I mean of course I remember people that aren't my family members, but she seems to have a strong connection to me.. it just that.."

"You can't even think how and when aren't you?"

Hakyeon nodded and turned. "Do you feel the same? Like..you're thinking hard but nothing comes up? Ahh.." He sighed deeply before he asked to Taekwoon "Why are you feeling the same as me by the way?"

"I dreamed about someone.. a girl.."

"And?" Hakyeon suddenly became interested before Ken and Ravi joined them.

"Everything about her, her hairs, eye color, the style that she had.. weirdly felt familiar and the necklace that she had, was the same with the ring that I had with me now." he showed the ring that he was wearing and everyone nodded. "She turned around and said nothing but a name crossed into my mind."

"Who?"

"Han Yejin. But I don't even remember who she is or how she con-" He stopped his words when Hakyeon said something

"isn't she.. your girlfriend?" Everyone nodded as they remembered it clearly, but how can he's the only one forgot about that?

"How..do you guys know?.. Like..just how?" Ravi started thinking and tried to conclude the situation.

"Probably Hongbin deleted our certain memories and left a basic ones for us to live. But he didn't delete something that we have and connected to each other. We once went to the same school and the only thing I knew was the memory of us together and a few that accidentally included in the memories like your girlfriend." Hakyeon then started to remember something.

"Before he restarting us a few weeks ago, I wrote something in a book but I'm not sure who.. it sounds like he's my family because of the surname. Cha Eunwoo? I guess.." This time Taekwoon nodded.

"He's your cousin.. It seems like we live now with different memories, and just now realized that we can complete each other.. Is it too much if I want to become a cyborg with my human's full memories?" They looked at each other and thought the same.
