"What are you thinking, Youra?" Chan Woo asked his wife who looked lost somewhere sitting in front of him.
Youra kept looking into the void and asked, "Will Do Yun...never come back?"
"Why suddenl-"
"Just answer me? He might have talked with you about it." She insisted.
Chan Woo sighed abruptly, "I don't know, I don't know what he has been thinking lately."
"But why are you asking this all of a sudden?" Chan Woo was restless.
"Don't you feel a bit empty since he left the house, I miss him every day...every second." She kept looking into the void.
"Why can't you forget him?!" Chan Woo stood up from his place gaining Youra's attention.
"He is not even our so-"
"Chan Woo!" Youra yelled at him as she stood up too.
"Don't you dare to say that!" "Ho-how could you be so-so cold-hearted?" Youra's eyes went wet.
"Back then...you used to love him more than me and now...you-" She kept her on hand on the arm of the sofa she was sitting on and started breathing heavily.
"Youra!" Chan Woo exclaimed in great worry and tried to get hold of her but Youra denied as she jerked his hand back.
"Don't tell me...you don't want him to return?" She looked at her husband who lowered his eyes.
Seeing him lower his eyes,
"He was our son!" words merely came out as a whisper from her slightly apart lips.
A tear escaped her eye and she quickly wiped it finally making her way towards her room. Chan Woo tried to follow her but she denies saying, "I want to be alone."
Chan Woo looked at her wife who was growing apart from him day by day since Do Yun had left he sits back on the sofa and says, "I was just...trying to protect you."
And the memories of his past flashed in his mind...
It was at that time when people were afraid to go out as the news of someone attacking and beating people, especially teenage boys had been spread all across the colony.
"Do Yun, my son where are you?" Chan Woo was fetching his son in the backyard being worried.
In some years Do Yun had finally accepted his new life, he doesn't remember what happened in past, not even the car accident in which his parents died. He only knew Chan Woo and Youra as his parents and he loved them the most. Do Yun had now turned into a teenager and a lovable child of the Park family. Not even his parents but his grandma also loves him.
Chan Woo kept looking for him when he finally went into his room. Looking into the whole room he heard a wail, as he looked outside the window of Do Yun's room just in front of his study table he gasped and his eyes widened,
"Do Yun!" He barely whispered.
He wasn't able to believe what he was encountering right now.
Down in the narrow lobby behind their house was standing Do Yun, panting while his elbows and knees were hurt badly. Chan Woo couldn't get a clear view of what was going there as he was too far from the place. But his got scared when a guy probably twice Do Yun's age approached him and Do Yun kicked him hard in his abdomen.
He then punched him multiple times on his nose. Not only that man, but there were also already two more lying on the ground probably unconscious. Chan Woo wasn't able to understand what was going on. He kept looking there when suddenly he hid by squatting down when Do Yun looked up at the window.
That day Youra was out for shopping with her friend as Do Yun's birthday was near. Chan Woo went back down in the hall and he kept thinking about what he had seen. After some minutes there was a slight thud of the main door opening and closing.
Chan Woo hid behind a curtain as according to Do Yun no one was at home. He saw Do Yun running upwards towards his room and so, Chan Woo followed his son secretly. He went behind him and peeked in his room by the ajar door.
But he regretted doing that, cause he again witnessed something unusual. Do Yun sat on his bed and closed his eyes concentrating for some seconds and as soon as he did so his wounds got healed making Chan Woo gasp.
He was the only one to witness it and it was like a nightmare, soon thoughts like... what if Do Yun is the one who has been fighting around in the colony lately and behind all those accidents he is the reason. He was now scared of his own son. He started to make distances with him but he didn't tell Youra anything about it, he feared that if she knows then Do Yun will harm her too and even thinking about it he feared a lot...
Thinking all this he kept sitting on the sofa and then he added further, "The boy whom we adopted..." He took a deep breath. "Is a danger for us..."
****
Here Do Yun opened his eyes once again and was slightly disappointed to see Sang Hyeon sitting beside him probably dozed off. Her head was supported by her hand which was kept on the side table. He frowned at her and looked at the ceiling sighing in disappointed.
"Never seen you so disappointed." Sang Hyeon exclaimed while her eyes were still closed.
Do Yun quickly looked at her and she opened her eyes, "Were you expecting..."
"No!" He quickly replied.
Sang Hyeon laughed out loud and sat straight making Do Yun pout. "I didn't even mention any name."
"Stop it." Do Yun said being frustrated as he glared from the corner of his eyes.
"Are you hungry?" Sang Hyeon asked put of nowhere.
Do Yun shook his head, "No, Hyun Soo made me eat already."
"Then you might be healed by the magic soup." She asked.
Do Yun nodded slightly as a reply and soon after realising the actual meaning of Sang Hyeon's question he glared at her making her laugh again.
"How many more days do I have to stay here?"
"Well...I guess a week." She said casually making Do Yun panic.
"A whole week?! What about the cafe then?"
"Hyun Soo is handling it already."
"She won't be able to handle it all alone."
"Alone?! Aera is there too, to accompany-"
"Aera doesn't know much. She- she is too naive." He grew restless.
"Then why am I here? After all, it's my cafe son. So. Calm down." Sang Hyeon assured him.
Do Yun nodded as his hands were bound this time, he can't use his healing powers cause everyone knows how badly he is injured and his sudden heal will make everyone wonder.
"But Do Yun... there is one question I want to ask."
"Hm?"
"Why did they beat you so badly, did you ever fought with them?..."
