My Son

67

Kihyun sat across the bed that held his best friend. Asleep yet nightmares haunted him throughout his slumber. "How is he." Kihyun looked towards the door and saw Hoseok. The man was eager to get his Hyungwon back. Knowing it wouldn't happen for years to come. Kihyun shook his head silently letting Hoseok know nothing has progressed. He got up and walked out, the two stood in the hall silently for a few seconds. "He won't talk to me. Yes he eats, yes he stays active, but he wont speak. Its silent and I can't get through to him. "I've never seen him like this." Hoseok sighed and rubbed his face. It was all his fault. Everything was and now he took Hyunwoo away from Kihyun. They still haven't heard anything and its been two weeks.

Hoseok saw the discomfort in Kihyun. The stress showed and it was bad for the babies. "If only I knew what happened." Hoseok gulped and kept his head low. "They wanted me to choose who they hurt. Knowing anything they did to me wouldn't faze me. Hyungwon stupidly asked what he had to do." Kihyun nodded knowing the feeling. "He chose the dumbest thing instead of death. I would have rather watch him die, I would have rather died." The door creaked open and Hyungwon appeared. "It wasn't your decision what happened. We both knew hurting her wasn't gonna happen, so it had to be me." Hoseok still remembered what he saw. They forced him to watch and listen to him scream. He begged them to stop.

"Why did you have to make a deal with him. I would have been fine with getting hit. I grew up getting hit." Kihyun stepped back and watched everything unravel. "I didn't want you dead and I couldn't watch them beat you to death. You were bleeding out and all I did was wat-" "No I watched as they beat and raped you. Do you have any idea how that made me feel. How fucked that is to let them do that to you." "It was either her or me and we both knew she was not an option. I'm fi-" "You haven't talked in two weeks. Ever since they shut you out of that car, and yes I do regret getting in first but they had a gun to your head and I'd rather listen then lose you." "Yeah well you already did." With that he slammed the door shut. Hoseok went to the door and tried to open it. "H-Hyungwon baby please. I'm sorry for yelling...please open the door." Kihyun sighed and shook his head. He had other things to stress about.

He went downstairs and to the play area. "Changkyun has she woken up yet." The 5 year old shook his head and silently played. He wanted to take care of her. Kihyun thanked the lords they got along and his baby wasn't terrified. "Keep watching her and remember if-" "someone comes to the door don't answer it. I know mommy, go take your nap." Kihyun scoffed at his boys tone. All sassy like he knew everything, of course he was 5 and growing older learning more. He walked up to the 5 year old, Kihyun kissed his forehead and smiled. "Alright big man you know when to wake me up." He nodded instantly. "I love you wolfie." "Love you too." Kihyun went down the stairs and to his room, stretching and yawning. His stomach was kicked at and he felt sore due to it. "Alright girls settle down. We'll listen to music soon." Settling in bed Kihyun turned his music on. Putting it on his stomach so the girls could hear it.

He played Hyunwoo's favorite songs. Wishing he was here instead of in some dungeon being tortured all day. He knew they were probably being watched. If they knew where Hoseok lived they had to know where Hyunwoo lived. "Hyunwoo you better get your ass back here before I pop." Rubbing his stomach Kihyun got comfortable. Drifting off to sleep.

"I'll ask one more time where is it." Woobin punched Hyunwoo's jaw again. Blood coming from the youngers mouth and his own hand. Silence. Hyunwoo hadn't spoken since he entered the car two weeks ago. Everyday he'd get beat, tortured, ignored. He didn't do anything but sit there and stare into the abyss. Knowing Hoseok would get to him soon with others. It could be days, weeks...months. Kihyun had a little under two months left and too much stress could shorten that time and Hyunwoo didn't like that. "Hyunwoo I'm showing you kindness. You can continue to refuse to talk, eat, sleep but soon you'll break. Now you can save that time and tell me where that flash drive is." Ah yes the flash drive that held one big secret. When with Kihyun he hid it in the bear plush they made together. The one Changkyun had clung onto. It was old and nobody really knew what was on it.

"You know, Hyungwon was acting as tough as you. He bargained away a lot. You see I stabbed Hoseok and they wrapped his t-shirt up. Poor skinny thing gaged at all the blood," Woobin started to bust out laughing as if it was the funniest thing he saw, and to him it was. "I didn't chain him because he definitely wouldn't get far so he decided to bring the girl in and stop hitting Hoseok. Stupid but it was fun torturing them both. Stripping that boy of every inch of pride, while forcing Hoseok to watch. Then again he was dragged from the car before the exchange. Some of the guys just needed a last go at it." This bowled Hyunwoo's blood. He was ready to kill this man. How could anyone ever do that to someone.

"You know I heard your freak is about to pop. A few of my men could-" This made Hyunwoo finally give in. "Do not touch him." Hyunwoo demanded. Woobin smirked at this and grabbed a chair from the wall, setting it down in front of the younger. He looked him in the eyes and spoke each word truly. "If you don't tell me where it is I'm goin after him. I don't care if he's 'pregnant' I'll kill the freaks that come out too. Gut them before I gut him. I'll do it in front of you, your whore of a mother, and the world." Hyunwoo tried to stay calm, he couldn't show any weakness. "I bet he has it. Your little whore." Hyunwoo kept his straight face. Woobin scoffed and stood up.

"No you wouldn't put him in that much danger right? Unless if you did thinking I wouldn't know." Still silence. "I can pay him a visit and ask-" "He doesn't have it." Hyunwoo interrupted. The older sighed and sat back down. "Who has it then." He needed this flash drive. Needing to find out what was on it then dispose of it. Silence. "I'm getting sick and tired of asking nicely." Silence. "Lay go hunt the whore down. Kill the little freaks then him." "No stop." Hyunwoo blurted. Woobin held his finger up signaling for his men to wait. "He doesn't have it, but he can get it."
