The Better Days With You

CHAPTER 42

HANA
My grip on Taehyung's hand tightened when I saw the familiar couple sitting on a bench, clear distress was on their face. Not even concealing their vulnerability.

When Taehyung told me what happened to him, how their parents left him, I can't help but to dislike them. But I keep telling myself to think rationally and Mrs Kim's face crossed in my mind. I knew she missed her son.

I squeezed his hand again, telling that I'm with him. Always. The troubled look on his face softened when his eyes on me.

Both Mr and Mrs Kim stood up when they saw us. I saw Mrs Kim's hands twitched wanting to hug her son but she managed to control herself.

We stand there in awkward silence for a few moment. Not one of them open their mouth, just looking at each other. Then I decided to break the awkwardness. Clearing my throat, I bowed at them and smile slightly.

"how are you, Mr and Mrs Kim?" both of them smiled, slightly surprised.

"we're... fine." Mr Kim answered then look at Taehyung.

"are you okay?"

"none of your business."

I grip Taehyung's hand tightly and send her my glare before smile sheepishly at his parents.

"look, Taehyung. We're sorry." Mr Kim started.

I just want to get out from here and leave this family to clear their problems. But Taehyung's grip on my hand is so firm and I know he won't let me go.

"we had to leave you with my mom because your life is in danger. There's a gang after us to destroy our family and fortunately they didn't knew you exist. Bit for precautions, we had to leave you. Believe me, son, leaving you that time was hard for us too." Mr Kim said and his eyes already red.

Mrs Kim on the other hand already sobbing in her husband arms. It was fortunate that we met in this secluded area  out from people's eyes. I noticed Taehyung's eyes red and watery but his face was blank. It's hard to read him.

"your mother was begging me not to leave you, but we both know how dangerous that time. We left the country and had to start a new life at Switzerland, starting a business there while managing the gang that after us. It took ten years but Hana's parents found and help us." Mr Kim look at me gratefully. While I just smile.

"our life start getting busy for a few years and we've been looking for someone to look after the company there while we prepare ourselves to come back. When your grandma died, we already booked the tickets, but there's a storm and we had to cancelled for five days. We were desperate that time, but no matter what we did, we can't come back."

Taehyung is already sniffling beside me. His tears already flow, but he still stay silent.

"the first thing we do when we landed is visit your grandma then we searched for you. Fortunately Hyerin invited us and we found you." said Mrs Kim and burst into tears. "you don't know how happy we are. Seeing you grew up healthy and handsome. You son know how much I want you in my arms last night. Right now."

Taehyung suddenly released my hand and without wasting time, he threw his arms around his parents. My heart swell seeing another beautiful moment in front of my eyes.

Just I want to left the family to enjoy their moment, suddenly I was pulled into their hug and I accept it with my open arms.

"thank you, Hana for being there with Taehyung." Mrs Kim said after we let go each other. "I'm doing my job, Mrs Kim." I smile sheepishly when Taehyung pulled me to his side, wrapping his arm on my waist. I can't help but to feel embarrassed.

We're in front of his parents, for goodness sake!

"you can call me auntie, you know?"

"you can call me uncle."

Smiling, I just nod my head. Happiness is an understatement for now.

Taehyung kissed my cheek and forehead while Mrs Kim 'aw'at the gesture.

"so, that's mean we can get grandchildren?"
