Epilogue I

Chanyeol's POV

"Her condition is getting better. Her recovery process is pretty fast. If there's anything happen, just inform our nurses."

Dr. Zhang, my family personal doctor tapped my shoulder lightly, threw a dimple smile at me and walked himself out of the white room.

"It's already a month and a half, Chae. You should wake up by now, y'know. Why are you sleeping for too long?"

I looked like an idiot but I didn't care. One of the many reasons on why she became like this is me. If I didn't force her to come with me to mother's house on that day, she wouldn't even be held hostage.

Of course she's not my biological sister but our late father made me hold the responsibility to take care of her in his place.

The guilt and regret drove me to look after her with no doubt. Thank goodness that my wife already grew fond of her. We took turns to stay at the hospital; staying by Chaeyoung's side.

I tugged on Chaeyoung's fingers when someone strutted into the room. By the scent of the overpowered perfume and clacking high heels, I could tell who's the person that came in without knocking.

"Are you looking for me, mother?"

I snickered a bit. Unknowingly, I started to invent a space of hatred in my heart for her. She's too cold-blooded. She acted based on her instinct most of times, just like an animal.

"No. The medias are around me. Surely they need a picture of me walking into my dearest daughter hospital room right?"

The smile on my face faded in no time. I decided to just ignore her and focused on carressing Chaeyoung's skinny fingers. It would be the best move or else I would burst out in anger. I never disagreed with my mother before but this time around, she really went over the red line.

"Have you seen the headline? The talkperson that I hired really did his job nicely. The alibi and created story were perfect. He really makes our family look like a happy family. I really-"

She kept on blabbering about how she tricked the media and I stopped paying any more attention to her. I stood up and rearrange all the flower baskets in the room; it was a useless action anyway as they were perfectly arranged by the window still.

"Oh Chanyeol! Who brought those flowers though? This room appears like a flower shop from outside."

"Rich ass bachelors from other companies."

I kept my answer short and simple, perhaps sounded a bit rude. rolled my eyes at the thought that my mother revealed everything about our status to the media and now all men set their eyes on Chaeyoung. They wanted to marry her in hope to get some share from my father's company.

My mother stayed for a few more hellish minutes in the room and left after realizing that I wasn't in any mood for empty chit chat session with her. I sat beside Chaeyoung's bed again right after she left and sighed.

"How I wish that you have a better mother and brother, Chae. I'm sorry lil sis."
