CHAPTER SEVEN: REUNION
____
"Joshua? Why are you calling me at the crook of dawn? It's early."
"Just come outside (Y/n). I need to show you something, I'm outside so I'll just wait out here for you."
"Come inside, Joshua. It's freezing out there, I can't leave you outside."
Joshua called you at 5:40 in the morning, telling you to get ready because he had to take you somewhere. And here in Seoul, it's freezing at this time, which'll explain why he's sitting in your house this early in the morning.
You had finished getting ready, and once you entered your living room Joshua greeted you with a cup of your favorite, black coffee.
"Drink up, you'll need it. I'm sorry for waking you up at this time, it's just something urgent, and I really need you for this." Joshua explained as the two of you exited out of the house.
"Where are we going? You're not going to kidnap me are you? Like in those fan fictions? I'm too young to die." You began going on a rant, earning a weirded out look from the man who was walking right beside you.
"What? No! We're going to the park." It's literally five minutes away from here, so cool your jets. But don't worry we won't take long.. I think." Joshua said taking a look at the time on his cellphone. "Just trust me, okay?"
"Of course, I trust you, Joshua." You reassured the man, "But admit it, you calling me this early and telling me come outside, seems pretty sketchy." You comedically took a sip of your coffee that the lovely Joshua made.
The two of you began approaching the park, a couple seemed to be put on an early morning run, and very little pedestrians, jesus christ why do people like waking up so early?
"Well, it's about to get even sketchier." Joshua covered your eyes with a blindfold, and you could feel your heart rate begin increasing. "Follow me."
Joshua then took a hold of your hand, it was warm, which helped you calm down a little bit but your heart remained racing 100000mph. You walked slowly, trying your best to not fall as he led you around the park.
Your blindfolded figure and Joshua soon were face to face with your one and only brother, Kwon Soonyoung.
"you can take it off now." Soonyoung mouthed to the boy, and a small smile had plastered on his face.
"Joshua, why'd we stop? Is everything okay? Am I going to die?" You began freaking out, but were confused as to what was going on because you still felt Joshua's hand presence in yours.
Soonyoung stepped closer to his sister, he hesitated but began untying the blindfold from the girl's head. Joshua stepped back to give the two some space for the surprise that he planned.
And the blindfold fell.
Instead of being met by a wild Joshua Hong, you were met with your brother.
Crystal began fogging up your eye sight, and your expression was mirrored by the boy in front of you. He cried, but still wore his smile, and pulled you into a warm embrace. Your sobs were echoing through the park.
"..s-Soonyou-young.." You held him tighter as you cried out his name.
Soonyoung caressed your hair, you felt his hot tears hit your shoulders.
"Why did you leave?" He cried, "Why did mom and dad lie to me? What really happened that night, (Y/n)?"
You broke out of the embrace and cupped his cheek, "Let's have a seat, and then I can tell you." You brought your little brother to a nearby bench, Joshua following but stayed at a distance, giving you guys some space.
You took a seat beside your brother on the bench, and took a deep sigh.
"You already know that I left the house, and I don't know what mom and dad had told you, but what I'm telling you is the complete truth." You began, taking a hold of Soonyoung's hands that were shaking. "Yes, it was true that I was pregnant with Taehyung's baby, but as you know mom and dad weren't having it. Even though Taehyung and I knew what we were doing, we wanted a family. And when I found out I was about 3 weeks pregnant."
Soonyoung gulped, he was afraid of the truth he felt anxious and the lump in his throat wouldn't disappear.
"Later that week, I announced it to our parents, and I was ecstatic. But mom and dad grew angry, two weeks later I was forced into getting an abortion.."
Tears began fogging up your vision, and Soonyoung's face was in utter shock, he quickly took a hold of you and let you cry. "They took my baby.."
You backed away from your brother's embrace but tears wouldn't stop running down your rosy cheeks.
"After that, they kicked me out. And they found out about you helping me, and that's when we stopped seeing one another. And it's just- I'm so sorry.." You sobbed into his chest, regretting everything that had happened.
"I wanted my child, and they took it from me. Why? Because they didn't like Taehyung, just because of some stupid and dumb old high school history of theirs." You cried even harder.
You looked at your brother, and his cheeks were stained with tears as well.
"Mom and dad told me how you said that your child was a mistake, and that you planned to put it up for adoption once it was born, hence why you left."
Your parents lied to Soonyoung, making up lies for him to believe and to eventually hate you as much as they did. How jacked up could they be? It was bad enough that they took your baby, but taking your beloved little brother in the process as well?
That's beyond fucked up.
"I'm sorry (Y/n)..."
