XXI. To protect

Dongpyo's voice

When they said that our father is a traitor. I can't even look at Seungwoo's eyes. I felt like I shouldn't be here, he even asked my hand to my father.

He even give me a new life.

And father doesn't know it.

I sighed for 99th time. "Is there any problem?." Minkyu asked me, giving me some cup of fresh milk.

"No..."

"Is it because of the info you just wanted to know? You already have the answer, aren't you supposed to be happy?." Minkyu asked me again, should I supposed to be happy?. "You said, in order to protect Seungwoo you must know everything, we tell you that 'everything' but it looks like you can't even give it a try."

"I wanted to protect Seungwoo!." I stared at him confidently. My tone rises up, I don't know but I need to protect Seungwoo. From them, or even me.

"Then don't act up that way. If Seungwoo sees you like this then..." He stops on what he have to say when my...

My father and mother is here...

"Where is your fiance?." Father asked me, coldness on his tone is visible. "Mr. Han is not here. I am—"

"Are you my son?." Mother arched his eyebrows. What? This is not my mom...

She is not my mom that I supposed to know.

"Son, pack your things we're going back home." Mother said sweetly, hugging me tightly. So lovingly, so caring, so warm. But...

"Mom, I don't want to go back." I whispered, her hug tightened. "You're going back home. Baby."

"M-Mom, you're hurting me." I flinched when she keeps on tightening her hug.

"Mrs. Son you're hurting your son, and I believe, this resident won't allow everyone to hurt Dongpyo." We heard Yohan said when he came downstairs with the other guys.

Mom released me from the hug before pulled me forcefully. "Mom! I don't want to go home!."

"This is not your home!."

"But Seungwoo—" Pain...

A sting of pain in my left cheeks making my eyes wide, my mouth tastes like an iron.

"Ever since you left the house, you didn't think of me! Ever since you left us, you cared about yourself! Can't you even see us?! You only cared for that fucking person! That fucking Han Seungwoo!." Mother spat, slapping me a multiple times, making my cheeks gone red. My tears fell down.

"M-Mom..." I whispered.

"You're a disgrace Son Dongpyo! I bet you let that Seungwoo get your virginity aren't we?!." My mother asked me shaking me with her hands on my shoulders.

"That's enough Mrs. Son." Seungyoun tried to calm my mother but my mother slaps him hard. "You don't touch me Cho Seungyoun with your filthy hands! You're the same as your deceased mother!."

What the...

Mom...

You're... "You stop it mom!." I shouted with my hoarsed voice. Seungwoo arrived at this point.

"Mom, I can't go back just yet. Mom please trust me this time, I know I became deliquent, I know I became selfish, but Seungwoo saves me more than two times. He saves me and reaches my hand." I look at my mother who is just listening, she stared at me with her tears fell down. "S-Seungyoun hyung, Minkyu, Tony, Jinhyuk-hyung, Jinwoo and many of them, helped me a lot. They became fond of me. You shouldn't be hurting my friends like that mom. They are my friends."

I look down, ready to received a slap but Seungwoo get in front of me to received my mom's wrath, her eyes widen.

"Hurt my fiance one more time Mrs. Son, I will forget that you're his mother."

Seungwoo turn his back to my mother then caressed my now bruised cheeks. "Pfft. Still pretty."

I blushed by what he said, he gives me a quick kiss from the forehead and look back to my mother.

"Mr. and Mrs. Son, what brings you here?." He asked.

"I want my son to go back home!." My mother said confidently.

"Aren't we have a contract? Hm? I sell the half of my company for Dongpyo, I buy him, everything of him. Your husband must to be blame here not your son." Seungwoo said holding my hand.

"You lied to us, that is not your half but only your—"

"That's the half of my company Mr. Son, I can actually prove it to you by now." Seungwoo cutted him off.

"It's not my fault to be this wealthy." He smirks teasingly, before looking back to my mother. "What brings you here?"

"My son, give back my son!."

"Oh Mrs. He is not your son anymore." He smiles making my mother gone mad.

"This will be the last time you'll do this to us Han Seungwoo!." My mom stormed out the house, my father follows her after.

"Wooseok. Mrs. Son is being a bad woman today. Bad girl should behave. Eliminate her." My eyes widen when Seungyoun said that. I hold Seungwoo's hand tight.

"Y-You can't do that!." I stuttered. "Hm. Why?." Seungwoo asked me. "She is my mother!."

"So what?."

"Seungwoo!." I cried, I got into my knees before bowing down. If begging is the only solution then I'll do it.

"Please. I am begging on you, I'll do everything!." I shouted while crying.

"Everything?."

"Yes! Everything!."

He kneels down in front of me, his thumb lift up my chin before kissing the tip of my nose.

"My princess wish is my command then..."

"Woah woah woah here we go again!." Seungyoun laughed while Yohan joined him.

"Sugar daddy also means 'sweet boyfriend' not some old weak man that is likely soon to die and got a hell'a tons of money. Heck, no, so feel free to call your boyfriend 'sugar daddy.'" Yohan explained then everyone laughed excluded me and Seungwoo. "In short, call Seungwoo your daddy, Pyo." Seungyoun added.

Memories in his office flashes back on my mind as I blushed harder this time I pushed myself back.

"Wooseok, kill Kim Yohan and Cho Seungyoun. I don't care if here or somewhere."

"Sure Mr. Han." Wooseok bowed down before they all ran away out of the house while Wooseok chased them in a light of speed.

Minkyu helped got up. "Let's clean your bruises Pyo." Minkyu smiles.

I nodded my head, I look at Seungwoo who is going upstairs but then he stops and looks at me. "Dongpyo, you said you'll do everything right?." He said, his eyes are saying that everything.

I gulped hard. "Y-Yes..."

"Well then...I'll see you later."

This is not a good idea.
