[3rd Person POV]
"Oh little brother, snooping are we?" Changkyun heard as he bolted upright with widened eyes. He stood face to face with Chaehwa who had her arms folded and suspiciously glared at her younger brother. She tried to look closer to see what he was doing but Changkyun quickly slipped the photos underneath a pile of folders on the desk.
"Snooping? I was sent here to take some photos of a document" Changkyun lied but in a relaxed tone so he wasn't caught. Chaehwa frowned as she shook her head. Changkyun couldn't lie that easily to her and get away with it. 
"Maybe that was why you came in here, but that wasn't what I caught you looking at." Chaehwa said as Changkyun sighed deeply. There was no way he could lie again to get out of this situation, Chaehwa had already caught him. 

 

Before Changkyun realised, Chaehwa had moved to stand right in front of him. His eyes widened as he took a secret glance down at the photos he had pushed underneath a pile of folders but the corners of them were still visible. 
Chaehwa and Changkyun stared at each other as Chaehwa moved the pile of folders to one side to reveal the photos beneath them. She glanced down as she gasped and a horrified look spread across her face, "Oh no."
"Oh no? You know what they mean, don't you? Why does our mother have a photo of Kyungah and a baby on her desk? Is Kyungah the baby?" Changkyun asked Chaehwa in disbelief as she continued emotionless, silent and staring at the photos, "Chaehwa!"
Chaehwa snapped out of her daze and looked across at Changkyun who looked completely confused, she sighed deeply as Changkyun frowned. Just as he began to ask her again, she interrupted and hesistated so he stayed silent and waited for her answer.

 

"The baby is Kyungah and the hand in the photo is our mother's..." Chaehwa began as Changkyun frowned again and looked back down at the photos. Immediately multiple thoughts rushed through his mind and he didn't know what to believe, but he knew that Chaehwa must know what it all meant. 
"Why... why would our mother be with Kyungah as a newborn..." Changkyun stuttered as Chaehwa shut her eyes tightly and sighed deeply. "Is Kyungah... our sister?!" He asked her afterwards as Chaehwa's eyes opened quickly and she shook her head.
"No no no. You're not related to Kyungah, she isn't your sister. I only found out a few years ago, Chaewon and I..." Chaehwa began as Changkyun sighed with relief but his eyes widened afterwards. At least he wasn't related to Kyungah, but Chaehwa wasn't the only one who knew, so did Chaewon, which meant the whole family knew apart from him, "Chaewon and I found our mother looking at the same photos. When we asked her about them, she told us everything but she told us to never tell you..."

 

"But I want to know. I have a right to know, and so does Kyungah!" Changkyun said sternly as Chaehwa gulped at the angry tone in his voice.
"I never knew it was Kyungah when our mother told us, she never said her name. I only worked it out when Hyunwoo said something to me yesterday. I never thought it could be Kyungah, I still don't understand why our parents would let her live here because of what happened." Chaehwa pleaded with Changkyun as he remained emotionless. 
"So what is it? Tell me everything you know." He sighed deeply as Chaehwa reluctantly nodded and she carefully took Changkyun's hands in hers. Changkyun shook his hands out of the way and put them to one side, futher away from Chaehwa as she sighed deeply and brought her hands back, then she began to tell Changkyun. Everything.

 

 

[3rd Person POV - Flashback to January 26th 1996]
"I'm so thankful she's ok" A woman's voice said as she pressed her hand against the window of the viewing room where her baby girl laid in a hospital cot. A man stood behind the woman emotionless and silent as he also looked into the viewing room at his daughter before he glanced at a baby boy who was laid in the cot beside. Both of the babies who had been born at a similar time had been sent to the room where all newborn babies were held if their mothers have complications after their birth, but luckily the girl's mother had recovered quicker than expected, compared to the boy's mother, however both of the babies were healthy.
"Mrs Im?! We just need to check your blood pressure again." A doctor said as he approached the couple stood at the window and Mrs Im turned around with a smile on her face.
"Is everything fine with our baby?" She asked the doctor as he immediately nodded.
"What about the boy?" Mr Im asked the doctor as he let out a slight sigh and Mrs Im frowned at his question.
"I shouldn't

Chapter 20: OMG! I can't believe we have already reached the end. Thus chapter was nice and although I'm yearning for more, the story in whole was a pleasant ride. And for some odd reason, I can totally imagine Hyunwoo with his son. LoL... Anyway, thanks for the nice story ^^

PS I'm curious who your next story is gonna be based on.

Chapter 19: Can't believe there's only one more chapter to go. Anyway, I was kinda starting to feel a little bad for Mrs Im when she yelled at her husband but then she had to go and do all emotional blackmail. Wonder how things would go for the final chapter. Will be eagerly waiting for it ^^

Chapter 17: Yay! Half of my theory was right. But the other half did come as a big surprise. Somehow wasn't expecting that. LoL XD anyway, now that the secret has been revealed, I wonder how things would develop herein. Poor Kyungah though! Can't wait to read more. Will be eagerly waiting for the next update ^^

Chapter 16: Whoa a cliffhanger! And I'm not gonna guess whether the two are siblings or not :P anyway, give it to Hyunwoo to be the oblivious even in an extremely tense/awkward situation XD this chapter was nice and I can't believe this story is reaching its end soon. Can't wait to read more. Will be eagerly waiting for the next chapter ^^

Chapter 15: I'm getting yet another theory behind their past and parents. But it will have to wait until the story reveals itself. LoL... Nonetheless, this was a nice chapter. I enjoyed how Hoseok acted when Kihyun and Changkyun interacted. Although I do wonder why Mrs Im is keeping silence regarding these two dating. And glad that these two could talk things out. Anyway, can't wait to read more. Will be eagerly waiting for the next update ^^

Chapter 14: I'm surprised that Mr and Mrs Im only called her to talk about that. Does that mean Mrs Im hasn't told Mr Im about it yet? If so, wonder why. And I agree with Changkyun's take on the DNA results. They grew up as siblings for almost all their lives. So I'm sure that feelings wouldn't change that easily. Anyway, nice chapter. Can't wait to read more. Will be eagerly waiting for the next chapter ^^

Chapter 13: Oho! She saw it! Poor her! And poor Kihyun too. Like I said in the previous chapter, I hope they resolved things and it doesn't change anything between them. I mean even if they're unrelated, they both grew up to be brother and sister. Oh, speaking of unrelated, there was a small mistake in the chapter regarding the result. You said 'there's 0.0001% chance that they are unrelated' and doesn't that mean they are actually related? Lesser chance of something is equivalent to higher chance of being the opposite. Just thought would let you know *sweats* anyway, can't wait to read more. Will be eagerly waiting for the next chapter ^^

Chapter 12: Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Now I have a possible theory on what's the secret behind the Yoo family. Anyway, hope this still doesn't change things between her and her brother. And also, hope the one who took his number from the doc doesn't end up getting a hold on him. Also, Mrs. Im hasn't reacted in anyway after finding out who her son is dating? I'm a bit curious of that. Anyway, can't wait to read more. Will be eagerly waiting for the next chapter ^^

Chapter 11: They finally expressed their feelings for each other! This chapter was nice. Chaehwa dating Hyunwoo did come as a surprise. Definitely wasn't expecting that but definitely not complaining either. Although I'm yet to figure out what's the mystery behind her parents disappearance. No clue either. LoL... Anyway, I can't wait to read more. Will be eagerly waiting for the next chapter ^^
