The pure white porcelain sink was stained with bright red liquid. Blood. The liquid of life was trickling down from the corner of his lips as he went into another coughing fit. He tried to stop the precious liquid from trickling down but it was hopeless. He knew it was hopeless yet sometimes he wished this was only a bad dream. However it was too real. He had to endure the same thing every single night ever since he was eight and it was getting worse. His body was getting the toll from the illness he had. He hadn't receive the proper treatment albeit the Lee family was one of the richest. His brother could more than afford the best and latest high-tech treatment available. However, the prefect donor had yet to surface. The Lee family had once found the best donor but when they were attacked by a group of runaway criminals, they couldn't carry on with their plans. The attacked also killed Lee ji-sun and dong-gun , the parents of Lee howan and Lee sungjong Sungjong sighed as he looked at his reflection. He wasn't like any other boys in his school. His skin was pale due to lack of sunlight it received. He couldn't spend too much time in the sun or he will blackout in just a matter of minutes. Most of him time was killed by studying and reading endless amount of mangas or spent it with a certain poker faced boy, myungsoo. He was the reason he kept a positive attitude. He might be scary looking but as time passed, sungjong knew he was very soft inside. Sungjong splashed his face with cold water. He glanced at hid reflection again before stepped out of the bathroom. Another tired, eventful day had passed and right now, all he wanted was a peaceful sleep. He took in a lungful of air as he crashed his tiny body on his bed. It was very comfortable just to lie on that bed especially when the bed cover was pororo. Before the young Lee could indulge himself with the comfort of the soft and fluffy pillows, there was a firm knock on the door. Just a knock and the sound seemed like magnefied when his eardrums picked it up. It was hoya, he knew it just from that one knock. Hoya was the only person in that big house that knocked his door that way. Lazily, he forced his body to get out of the bed and dragged himself towards the door. He twisted the golden colour knob and pulled the door opened. Sure enough, his one and only brother was standing before the door with a tray of medicines in his hands. Sungjong moved aside and let his brother in. Hoya was putting down the tray when sungjong came trotting beside him. "Do you have another new meds?" Sungjong eyed at a blue colour bottle in the rows of medicines. "Yes. I just got this from sungmin and it's not a medicine. It is just some sort of vitamin to keep you energetic all day. Sungmin said, you may even spent some time outside. You don't have to be inside when everyone is enjoying the sun," hoya explained to him. He knew how much he loved outdoors activities since he was little. But as he grew up, the illness became more severe and the doctors had advised him to stay inside as much as possible. "So right now I have almost ten kinds of pills, huh?" "Yes, and you have to take every single one of them every day. And I have to prepare them for you in case you forgot... Or you know the consequences," hoya handed sungjong the small saucer that contained all of his pills. "Yeah I know, that Hyuna-noona will kill you," sungjong grinned at his brother in mentioning his personal doctor which also happened to be his brother's fiancé. Yup, he had a personal doctor. Sungmin was another ingenius doctor that had a vast knowledge about his illness and he made him daily supplements. Then, there was another doctor, Kim Yuk May, the Lee family's doctor. Hyuna noona was under her command and she wad assigned to watch over sungjong since she worked with the Lee. All of them worked together to find the cure for this young boy. Hoya gave him a small smile, one that he kept especially for that brother of his. Yes, he did know how to smile even with his extremely cold demeanor. However, the smiles were reserved for the two most important people in his life, lee sungjong and his doctor, Kim Hyuna. Only these two people had ever seen his smiling after what happened to the Lee family. "Hyung, water please," sungjong's voice brought hoya back to reality. The tall man quickly poured some water into a glass and handed it to his brother. Sungjong accepted the water and drank his pills in one big gulp. He muttered a 'thank you' at hoya. The big brother nodded as he cleaned everything on the tray. "So how are you first day at high school today?" Hoya asked. "Hhmm... It was okay, I guess?" Well, truthfully, it wasn't that okay if you considered about myungsoo's confession about sunyeol to him. It was heartbroken for him and since myungsoo declared his heart was for that dark haired boy in the morning, the rest of the day for sungjong hadn't been so great. His mind was filled with that painful thought all day long. "Are you sure? It looks like you have quite a bad day, brother..." hoya muttered. He knew there was something bothering him but he couldn't say what it was. Sungjong shook his head with a small smile plastered on his face. "It was okay and everything was great, hyung. Just another tired day at school. Nothing much happened anyway," sungjong yawned right after he finished his sentences. Once again, the cold Lee produced a small smile for his little brothet. He ruffled his hair. "Now get some sleep. You have another long day tomorrow. We have an appointment with sungmin for health, with kim may for you monthly check up, and with..," hoya didn't have the time to complete his sentences when sungjong interrupted. "With Hyuna-noona for your weekly dates!" Sungjong with a wide big grin on his face. "Yes and to take your belongings back that you left at her house last week," stated hoya. He was grateful that sungjong could accept Hyuna in his life. He had never fell in love with anybody because he afraid that his one and only brother didn't like it. However, the second he said that he loved his brother's personal doctor and would like to marry her, sungjong squealed in delight. He even congratulated him and asked the wedding dates. Since that day, sungjong and Hyuna became more inseparable. Hyuna was a motherly kind of person and sungjong who had lost his mother when she was so young, seek for that kind of love from Hyuna. Lucikly his personal doctor didn't have any objection whatsoever. They will become one happy family, right? "So are going to bring her somewhere fancy for your romantic date tomorrow? If you are, then I think I better step aside. I don't want to interfere with people's dates especially with 'The Coldest Person in the World's' dates," sungjong laughed at his remarks on his brother. Hoya only grinned at him. He ruffled his hair again, making him annoyed with his action. "Hyung!" "Have a good night sleep, sungjong," he replied as he stepped out of his soft yellow bedroom. "Hyung?" Hoya turned back towards his brother. He was standing in the threshold. There was something that he wanted to ask him, he read from his expression. He looked into his brown eyes. "Yes?" "You wouldn't leave me, no matter what happen, right?" That question startled him. Why would he think of that? "Of course not sungjong. You are my one and only slbrother. Why would I do that? In fact, I made a promise that I'll protect you, remember?" Sungjong nodded. "Now, get to bed. Whatever happens, call me. Good night." Sungong nodded. "Hoya-hyung, I love you," he muttered, loud enough for his ears. Then, he closed the door. Hoya watched as his figures disappeared behind the wooden door. He sighed, unintentionally, thinking about sungjong's sudden question. Something was really bothering him and he really hoped whatever it was, it would not let him will to live disappear. He still had a long way to go and hoya didn't want her to give up with him ife just
