The Ugly Twin #Wattys2017

Chapter 37 - Dying.

"Appa!"

A man in his late twenties turned his head to find two kids were running toward his direction.

"I want an ice cream!" A twin with white fair skin said in excitement.

"Of course!" A man, who turned out to be the young Mr. Kim answered. "What flavor do you want, Taeminnie?"

"Vanilla!" Taemin answered happily.

"Vanilla." Mr. Kim repeated. "What about you, Jongin?"

Another kid with the similiar face that resembles the other kid turned toward his dad.

"Chocolate..." The small thick lips moved a little cautiously.

"Vanilla and chocolate!" Mr. Kim repeated. "Come on, follow daddy."

They bought ice creams from a nice old lady in the park. The two kids immediately demolished all the ice creams happily.

"Yum!" Taemin smiled so brightly while eating all of the ice cream.

Mr. Kim smiled at his oldest son's reaction and turned his head to see the younger twin's face. "Jongin, you like your ice cream?"

Jongin raised his head from the half eaten ice cream and nodded. "Appa, can you squat down?"

Mr. Kim's eyebrows twitched and he immediately squatted down. "Yes? What's the matter?"

Jongin immediately took a step forward and landed a kiss on his dad's left cheek.

Mr. Kim widened his eyes.

Jongin pulled away and smiled so sweetly. "I love you, daddy."

"Honey?"

Mr. Kim almost jumped on his seat when Mrs. Kim's came out from the ouside. He immediately released the family frame he was holding and put it back on the night table.

Mrs. Kim entered the room. "Can you take Woobin to the hospital today? His wife can't take him there since there's a meeting on the company."

Mr. Kim nodded before standing up and awkwardly walked away.

Mrs. Kim stared at her husband's back and stole a glance at the frame on the night table. She knew her husband had been looking at the frame.

She knew that her husband also missed Jongin.

Jongin opened the door of Sehun's patient room and found Taemin was leaning against the wall. Sehun's parents had arrived and Jongin moved out to let them have a 'family talk' with Sehun.

Taemin straightened his body when he realized Jongin's existence beside him. The almond haired boy awkwardly stared back into his little brother's eyes. "H-how's Sehun?"

"He... He is fine..." Jongin said slowly. "W-where's Chanyeol?"

"Urm..." Taemin felt a slight sting on his heart. He had been waiting for almost an hour and the only person Jongin looked for was Chanyeol. "H-he is downstair... Having a coffee."
