Wooyoung felt a warm light on his face causing him to open his eyes. The weather had cleared up from earlier and it was actually making him smile for the first time in a while.

He still felt drained from all the crying earlier, which just made him want to go bed to bed, but he was already awake so there wasn't really a point. He leant forward observing the time on the analog.

'what only been an hour, I swear it's been longer' He thought to himself as he sighed falling back into his pillow, as he stared up at the ceiling.

He knew that San was still in here and for some reason that made him so nervous, he didn't know why he just felt his heart sink to his stomach with only just thoughts of him going outside of his room.

Wooyoung laid there as he kept on fighting himself to if he should get up and talk to him or stay in bed and wait a little longer. Counting down the minutes he was still contemplating on which move he should make, and it wasn't until he heard another voice which really made him lose his train of thought.

"Do you think he'll be alright?"

From what he could make out it was Hongjoong that was talking, and by the other little noises that were also visible the other members must have been there as well.

Those words instantly made him feel a sudden rush of adrenaline, he had no idea who they were talking about or what it was about, making him so eager to go find out.

He counted to three as he then forced himself up and out of his bed stretching as he searched for some socks, as he then chucked them on making his way out.

As soon as he opened the door, instantly all the members looked at him with sympathy, Wooyoung furrowing his eyebrows in confusion to why they all looked so sympathetic.

Hongjoong was the first one to get up, holding a note in his hand as he walked up towards Wooyoung.

As soon as he got to Wooyoung he just stood there with the same look on his face as he didn't make a sound, looking towards his feet.

Wooyoung had no idea what was going on, he was tempted to say something but he stayed quiet.

Hongjoong quickly wrapped his arms around the younger into a tight hug as he whispered.

"I'm so sorry Woo"

Wooyoung was speechless, as he just waited till Hongjoong finally unwrapped him arms handing him a piece of paper, which writing scribbled all over it. He looked towards the paper then at the members almost like a sign of assurance, as he then made his way onto the couch sitting amongst them.

He brought the paper up towards his face as he started to read the messy writing.

My Son Wooyoung,

Hey son, you're probably a little shocked to be reading this eh?? But its your old man here, ready to give you another life lesson, so get cuddly and go grab some popcorn.

Now son, I prayed every night that this letter would never have to make its way into your hands but your probably reading it now thinking 'what an idiot' or 'what the hell does this mean' well my Wooyoung, this letter means that I have now moved on in life, to a better place where I can watch over you and your mother.

Son now I'm not one to be cheesy but my and your mother are so proud of what you have accomplished in the past year, I still remember as if it were yesterday when you would run around the house dancing to videos on the tv. I knew from that very moment that you would have a successful life and that you would be surrounded by the most beautiful, caring and loving people one could ask for and I really couldn't ask for more. No matter where you were me and your mother were cheering you on from home. I even asked all the nurses a couple of months ago to switch all the patients tvs just so everyone could watch ATEEZ comeback. Son you have grown so much, and I cant even express how proud I am of how you've grown into such a beautiful young man.

Promise. [Woosan] // [Ateez]Where stories live. Discover now
