( DISCONTINUED ) The Life Of Y/N

Four

The next morning, Y/N and Yuna wake up to the sound of light knocks on the door, both of them sleepily opening their eyes.

"Yuna, I know the boy is in there. I need to talk to him"

The door opens to reveal a slender and beautiful woman, a woman that looks exactly like Yuna in Y/N's eyes.

When seeing the young boy laying on her daughter's lap, she rushes towards him and embraces his small figure with a tight hug, tears escaping from her eyes.

"Oh baby, I'm so sorry"

It is revealed that Y/N's mother was killed by her own husband that night, the father was successfully arrested, and relatives were called.

When Y/N finds out, he doesn't cry, or get angry. Rather, he seems disappointed in himself, like he failed his mum by not fighting back. In the 6 years of his life, he never felt such extreme disappointment, it was right then and there he decided

"I will be better and take care of those I care for"

Y/N is also told that he will be moving to live with his Aunt, in Seoul, and so he, with the help of Yuna, starts to pack up his stuff at home.

"It's alright Y/N ah, we will see each other again," Yuna reassures the boy, as they place his clothes and belongings inside a medium-sized bag.

"Promise?" Y/N turns around his eyes filled with tears threatening to drop out, as he extended his pink towards the older girl.

"Promise"

Their pinkies interlock as Yuna smiles brightly at him, causing him to give a small smile in return.

Finally finishing the packing, Y/N sees something golden shining against the light, the object placed on top of the intact counter, a total contrast to the rest of the house. Grabbing the object, Y/N realises it's a ring, his mother's ring, the one thing she carried with her at all times, so it was weird it was left there.

"This ring, Y/N ah, was given from my own mum to me, she said it was a symbol of trust and love. When you become older, I will entrust this ring to you. Whenever you wear this ring, I'll be there with you"

Y/N reaches out and places the ring on his ring finger, smiling sadly as he sighs deeply.

"I love you mum, I'm sorry"

He kisses the ring softly before turning around to see Yuna's mum and Yuna standing on the doorway.

"Let's go Y/N," the woman says as Y/N walks closer to her, grabbing her hand shyly as she guides him outside.

Arriving outside, Y/N takes notice of a long black car, a smiling lady, who Y/N recognises as his Aunt, poking her head out of the window.

"Y/N ah~ Come here to Auntie" she opens the passengers' door as Y/N turns around to Yuna instead.

"We'll see each other one day right noona?" he questions the girl as he hugs her tightly.

"Of course Y/N ah, so you better have grown really tall and be a man when we meet again" Yuna ruffles his hair playfully as the boy nods quickly.

"Come on Y/N, we have to go"

Y/N kisses Yuna's cheek, causing the girl to blush furiously, fortunately not being noticed by Y/N, who turns around and starts walking with his bag towards the car. Getting in, his Aunt hugs the boy softly, closing the door he came from and telling the driver,

"You can go, we're ready"

The boy smiles up shyly towards his Aunt before looking at Yuna through the window, waving at her as the car drives off, both thinking the exact same thing.

"When am I going to see you again?"
