"Is it okay if we are going to leave again?" Taehyun hesitantly asked he knew that the boy is not allowed to get tired of his faster recovery.


"Of course! I would love to go anywhere with you!" Beomgyu is cheerful that he got the chance again to go somewhere with his boyfriend.


Beomgyu can drive now, and Taehyun decided to take him to his family mansion. The raven-haired boy knows the direction to Kang mansion, a place that used to be lively and peaceful. After 35 minutes, they arrived at the villa that looks like a haunted house now. The garden has a lot of dried flowers with dry leaves on the ground. The surroundings look lifeless.


"Yeonjun's family is busy nowadays. Aside from filing a case against him, Yeonjun also reopened the case about my family to clear our name. I believe that my family can come back here sooner than expected," Taehyun said while looking around. He still remembers the spot where he is painting and arranging flowers in a vase. His life in his home is different in the military academy because of his generous, kind-hearted, and supportive parents.


"Are you planning to show yourself to your family just like what you did to me?" Beomgyu became curious.


"No, it will be harder for me to leave if I'm going to talk to them. It will be better this way because it's painful enough for them that I left them at a young age. They might get hurt worse if I'm going to show myself," Taehyun's voice is full of sorrow, he looked away.


"I'm sorry, I know that my family can never redeem themselves. We can never get back the things, and the lives that have lost," Beomgyu felt like his heart is pierced, the pain that his family caused is too much for Beomgyu and Soobin to pay. The cousins both have a huge responsibility and burden in this town because of the sins of their parents.


"What's done is done, your family will pay for everything anyway," Taehyun entered the rusty gates of the mansion. Beomgyu opened the dusty old door to get inside.


All of the household items are still there, covered with thick dust and spider webs. The large family portrait of the Kang family is still there, and Beomgyu stared at it. The family members are wearing simple traditional clothes. Mr. and Mrs. Kang are both smiling, while their arms are enveloped to Taehyun and his older sister. They are a happy family, a total opposite to Beomgyu's family.


"I will show you my room," Taehyun went upstairs, and he stopped in front of a navy-blue door. Beomgyu opened the door, and their eyes widen when they saw a familiar person, sitting on Taehyun's bed.


Kang Taemin's sorrowful expression changed when he saw Beomgyu. Taehyun froze when he saw his father, feeling a little relief that his father is unable to see him.


Mr. Kang is holding a picture of Taehyun wearing his military uniform. His grip on the picture frame tightened, and he is looking at Beomgyu with hatred. He grabbed something in his pocket, and his aura is turning dark. Taemin lunged into Beomgyu and pinned him in the wall. He pointed a Swiss knife on Beomgyu, who looked startled.


"A lot of people are suffering because of your greedy family! My dearest son died because of your motherfucking family! Maybe killing you can make him feel the pain of losing a child!" the tip of the knife pricked Beomgyu's neck, making it bleed a little bit.
