UNEXPECTED SPOUSE | x1

dongpyo's

it was just a normal day for some first grade schoolers like us. yeah.

my brothers and i are all in the first grade. our mom decided to send me a year late to school because we're having hard times financially and i don't have a problem with it. coz after all, i'm studying and that's what matters. even better because i'm with my brothers.

yes. dohyon is in the first grade too. the only real first grader here is hyeongjun. uri dohyon is quite impressive so he got in without taking kindergarten.

we were on our way home, happily skipping, holding each other's hands because hyeongjun did it often with his friends while cheering 'hwaiting hwaiting ah hwaiting hwaiting hwaiting'. very odd.

we walked a bit slowly to match our paces when this ahjussi approached us and talked to hyeongjunnie.

we were baffled when he asked how is hyeongjun doing. so as the eldest among the three, i sassily told him that he's a stranger to us who our mom told us not to talk with and that we are going home.

but ahjussi is as hardheaded as my brothers.

"wait. i just want to know if you are treated fine. it's been a long time since i first saw you. especially you." he looked at hyeongjun, their eyes met.

i could sense that hyeongjunnie was nervous so i stepped in front of him with my arms spread out. my brothers are behind me hidden now... hopefully. the ahjussi crouched to have the same height as me.

wow. that hurts.

anyway, he looked at me differently from my brother. i raised an eyebrow to him because we are completely strangers to each other. we know all of eomma's friends since she has few REAL friends.

if he introduces himself as one of them, then he's absolutely lying.

"ahjussi. you must have mistaken us as another children." i said. dohyon stood beside me.

"ahjussi, i squeal really loud and if i do, the police might think it's a siren." he said trying to sound cool. well, he is. that was pretty witty considering that he's an actual siren.

but no. i blocked him with my arm again motioning him to stand behind me.

"i won't hurt you-"

'yeah that's what kidnappers say before they abduct children.'

so, i cut him off as i retorted because he's getting scarier and weirder to us.

"ahjussi, our dad is a police. if you don't stop, i'm gonna call him and he'll send you to jail!" i yelled but i was nervous so i sounded like i'm gonna cry. oh my god.

"but i AM your dad."

i gasped.

my brothers gasped as well.

do abductors say that to take children away?

when he said that, he smiled sincerely. he smiled like how our mom smiled at us when she misses us after a long, tiring day.

"i know even your mom's name. and you can ask her who i am---" he insisted again.

"her name is hyokyung. nam hyokyung."

he just gave a wrong answer. oh my god.

"ahjussi..."

"our mom's name is gaea. it's an English name." hyeongjun said shyly behind me. i nodded and decided to leave already.

"joesonghamnida." i bowed to him. "we are not your children. we must have looked like them a lot. but we have our own father waiting for us to get back home. so pardon us, sir." i smiled awkwardly to him as i held my brothers' hands behind me hoping that my lie is effective.

don't get me wrong. i'm very very honest but i need a strategy right now.

fortunately, he didn't follow us anymore.

but hyeongjun is still looking at him from the distance. good thing i was holding his hand so he didn't trip on anything.

"hyung?" he called as we fastened our pace.

"ne?"

"don't ya think he looks like me?" he asked that made me stop from walking.

i sighed.

both of them looked at me with curiosity.

"dongsaeng-ah." i patted his shoulder.

"a lot of people do look alike. look at us, we have the same facial features. here--- eung?" i did my very very cute aegyo but ended up supporting myself over again.

"because we are brothers, hyung." dohyon said innocently.

i blinked.

"ah, jinjja! why would you look like him? he's so ugly."

hyeongjun pouted on my last sentence and i want to palm my face right now.

"let's just go home. we can't be late." i said weakly and we all held hands again.

our house is just a few blocks away so we don't need a school bus. and school buses just make me cry.

and that ahjussi is like a school bus to me.

somehow... i hope what he said was real.
