". . ."

"What was wrong? What happened?"

"That . . . that kind of suffer you wouldn't want to think of."

"I-I . . . I will listen."

". . ."

"I won't say anything about it. Come on, you can tell me."

"I don't think I'm still r-ready for that. But . . ."

"But?"

"O-Okay."

". . ."

"I will tell you. This is so hard . . ."

"Don't worry. You'll be fine. It'll be okay, Dongmin. Just breathe."

". . ."

". . ."

"It was Moonbin's father."

"What?"

"I-It was him. He's the reason why I'm like this."

". . ."

"Bin and I were bestfriends ever sinceㅡever since even before his father and my mom met. But neither of us knew that they were both in a relationship nor that they already knew each other. I haven't even met his dad while we're friends. So we were really shock when we knew about it. However, though we will finally become brothers legally, we were against it."

"Why?"

"It's just . . . you know, we just don't feel like it was a great idea. There's something about their marriage that we know won't turn out well. And it did. At first, his father was good and he was really nice. The truth was, he isn't. He isn't that kind of man my mother knew he was. He is a drunkard, loaded of debts, owes money to people I am sure he lost count to. He's a violent person, he beats anyone who comes his way or anyone who will piss him off. Even for just a little mistake, like a match that would burst into flame when being scratched. He's . . . he's that kind of person. He is . . . he is scary, Tzuyu."

". . ."

"I don'tㅡI don't wanna see him, again."

"Shh. You won't ever see him, again."

"How can you be so sure? You don't know him! He's unpredictable. He suddenly pops out of nowhere, throw things, crash everything, kicks, and yell! What if he comes to us? What if someone would knock at my door and he'll be there when I open it?"

"Waitㅡcalm downㅡ"

"That's why mom left so she won't ever experience his violence, again. But her mistake was leaving us Moonbin in his hands. She left us with him. And let us feel the grief she used to suffer from."

"What . . . what did he do to you, Dongmin? Did he . . ."
