“The key to everything is in the heart.”

“Dad?” You searched for the voice.

“The key to everything is in the heart…”

“Dad!!”

The voice was dying. You wanted to run around and continue to search for the voice.

You stopped and found yourself in bed. A shadow leaned towards you, making your lips meet each other…

You bolted up on your bed, beads of sweat dripping from your forehead. Your breathing was so fast, and your heart was running. "It was just dream." You said in between breaths. You wiped the sweat on your forehead and left your bedroom.

You went down and saw an unamused Hoya watching TV. He heard your footsteps and immediately turned around. "_____." He stood up. "What's the matter?"

Hoya saw you, and without thinking, he removed the jacket he was wearing and wrapped it around you. "Here."

You were touched with his action. "How about you?"

"Don't worry. I'll endure the coldness for you."

Your heart skipped with his words. "Thanks."

Hoya nodded and smiled. He looked up at the sky again. "Would you mind
