"Oh my," Seungwoo came to realize something and stood on his feet.

"Dongpyo," he uttered his precious son's name and went to his room.

There was a moment of silence when Seungwoo was standing in front of Dongpyo's room.He heard a mild crying and knew it was Dongpyo.

"Dongpyo," Seungwoo knocked slowly.

"Sweetie, are you okay?" Dongpyo replied with a whimper.

"Can I come in?"

Without waiting for Dongpyo's answer, Seungwoo entered the room and sat beside Dongpyo on his bed.

"Dongpyo," Seungwoo called for him gently.

Dongpyo turned his head to face Seungwoo.

"Daddy, where is Mommy?" Dongpyo asked with a muffled voice.

"Mommy? Um... she went out to get some fresh air," Seungwoo put on his best smile.He had to lie, he did not even know where did Eunbi go.She would came back, or at least that was his hope.

"Really? So Mommy is not mad at me?" Dongpyo sniffed.

"Why would she? It is alright, Dongpyo,"

Only scribbles and sound from television were heard.Day had already merged into night.Seungwoo was sitting on the dining chair, pouring his ideas onto the already scribbled music sheet.He fixed his glasses and continued to jot down whatever that came to his mind.That was when he noticed that Dongpyo was still up.Seungwoo turned his gaze to Dongpyo.He eyed him with a loving gaze.

"Dongpyo, why are you still not asleep?" Seungwoo asked him with gentleness in his voice.

"I am waiting for Mommy," Dongpyo placed another lego on top of the building.

"I built a house for us three.Look," Dongpyo flashed his brightest smile.

Seungwoo was touched.It would be wonderful if Eunbi loved it too.They would be a perfect family.At least that was what he thought.

"Mommy would love it," Seungwoo smiled faintly.

As Seungwoo reached for his pencil, his phone rang.

"Who would it be?Calling at this hour," he put the phone near his ear.

"Yes?"

"Are you Mrs. Eunbi's husband?" the voice sounded familiar.

"Yes I am.Who am I talking to?" Seungwoo asked curiously.

Seungwoo's face went pale.He turned his gaze to the floor, not knowing what to say.His hands and legs were trembling, but he had to be strong for the sake of his family.

"Dongpyo," Seungwoo called for him softly.

"Do you want to go meet Mommy?"

It was a dark and gloomy night.Only the shrieking of insects and howling of wind could be slightly heard.Seungwoo accelerated the car to its utmost speed.Little Dongpyo, who seemed to not know what was going on, kept a happy face all along the journey, thinking of meeting his loved mommy.

"Why are you speeding, Daddy? Is it because we're meeting Mommy?" Dongpyo grasped the seat belt.

Seungwoo put on his best smile, "Stay still, Dongpyo,"

Although it was not shown on his face, Seungwoo was anxious. Scared, that anything would happened to Eunbi.

"God, I beg you.Please, don't let anything bad happened to her,"

After what seemed like forever, they finally arrived.Upon arriving the hospital, Seungwoo got out from the car and brought Dongpyo in his arms.Seungwoo ran to the counter and the very first thing he asked was,

"Where's Kwon Eunbi?" Seungwoo breathed heavily.

"R-room 101," the nurse answered hesitantly.
