THOUGHTS ARE IN ITALICS

 

Yunho POV

 

The first time Heyri injured herself was when she was 6 years old. I came home from school. She usually waits until I come from school to eat lunch together. Having a quick wash, we had lunch together with omma. Every evening, no matter how much homework I had I made it a point to walk her to the nearby playground. If I didn’t, Jaejoong hyung would. If he did, Heyri wouldn’t come home that night. She would sleep at his place, on his bed, beside him. This idiot of a friend would gladly hug her close like she belonged to him, sing the lullaby that he first sang when she was born and kiss her a good night. He may be my closest friend but treating my baby sister as his personal teddy was not permitted. I should be the only man to kiss her a good night.

Walking hand in hand, followed by butler Song, we arrived at the park. Heyri let go of me to run to the swing. I sat under the banyan tree that was around 30 feet from the swing.

The few minutes I dozed off she got injured. One parent aggressively shook me awake.

“Yunho-ah, Heyri is injured.”

“WHAT?!” I stood up to run to the swing but my eyes immediately fell on the blood drops.

I followed the drops, running faster as I heard her cry. Pushing the parents away I rushed to Heyri, who was holding her right ear. Blood flowed down her hand. I turned to stone. Seeing me she cried out.

“Yunho-ah, take her to the doctor immediately” Someone snapped me back to reality.

Carrying her, I took her to the local clinic.

The girl who was on the swing had dropped her bracelet. Heyri, being the helpful girl decided to pick it up, completely ignoring the incoming swing. The edge scraped her ear. She is now holding my hand, trying to jump onto me to escape from the doctor.

“Heyri-ah, let him clean your wound”

She covered her ear, wincing in pain. Signaling butler Song to hold her, I gently pulled her hand from her ear. With further help from the nurses, we finally cleaned her wound.

Though I was relieved that it wasn’t anything severe, I was nervous to let omma know. No, I was shivering in fright to face Jaejoong hyung once he gets to know about her injury.

To my horror, he dashed into the room to hug Heyri, pushing me away.

What happened next was a whole new level of crazy……

 

I couldn’t help but smile remembering it. Jaejoong hyung’s love for Heyri is priceless. He didn’t let go of her and was constantly asking the doctor whether she dressed the wound properly, whether the equipment she used for sterilized, for how often the dressing has to be changed, whether it will scar, if so what was the remedy. I still remember the flabbergasted look of the doctor who tried to answer his questions but was immediately cut off with another question. Though Heyri stopped crying, he went on trying to console her telling that it will be ok. This child simply nodded, leaning on his chest. I, her only brother, stood there like an outsider and was remembered only when hyung realized that we needed to hail a taxi.

 

Today is one of those days where I fell nostalgic, remembering the past when everything was perfect. These halls were filled with Heyri’s laughter and her scribblings on the walls. Whenever I am down I spend the night in her room. Her bedroom, filled with Teddy Bears that I never fail to buy each year during her birthday or whenever I feel the need to buy something for her. The walls are painted white; her favorite colour. There is a framed photograph of the both of us, another one with our family, and finally one where Heyri is sitting on Jaejoong hyung’s lap - the latter hugging her close. It will be 10 years next month. 10 failed years unable to find where omma and Heyri are; unable to find whether they are alive.

I maybe her brother, but her disappearance affected Jaejoong hyung the most.

Whenever a girl confesses to him, his answer was always

“There is a girl born for me and she isn’t you, but my Heyri.”

I always thought that he was joking but I realized that he truly loved her though she was only a child.

It was her 7th birthday and the office heads were invited. Since Changmin’s father is our family friend, he brought his whole family. Changmin, who hardly speaks with anyone as a child got immediately attached to her. She fed him cake fortunately after feeding Jaejoong hyung though he didn’t like how she was smiling at Changmin. Kim Jaejoong was jealous of Changmin because she let him carry her. I still remember his clenched jaws, that menacing glare that sends shivers to anyone’s core. I’m very sure if there were a Guinness world record for glaring, Jaejoong hyung would have won it that very instant. I dared not to stand beside him though he turned to me eying me to take her from Changmin. Adding coal to the fire, Changmin kissed her cheek. The family wasn’t helping for they were cooing at the scene. Worse, she kissed him back. Hyung stormed out of the house and didn’t talk to us. It was until Heyri forced her way into his room, sat on top of his back (he was sleeping on his stomach the whole time not wanting to look at any of us) and kissed his cheek when he finally smiled.

He still loves her and that saddens me that he might end up not living his life but waiting for someone whom we have no clue whether she is alive.

 

Leaning back on the floor, I hugged her favourite teddy. No one is permitted to get into her room except for me and hyung. Either one of us clean the room, though it has been myself lately. Ever since Yoona made it obvious that she likes him, he doesn’t come here often. Her mother torments me

Chapter 38: That ending though!!! Other than that ominous ending, the chapter was kinda cute. Although I don't remember why Yunho is so against Jaejoong but is chummy with Changmin when it comes to his sister, I'm still enjoying it. LoL... Can't wait to read more. Hope to see an update soon ^^

Chapter 38: Welcome back, hope you’ve been well! This was such a cute chapter - except for the very end. Hopefully, they will be able to keep her safe. It was great to see Yunho being the protective older brother, and the adorable banter between Jaejoong and Jennifer.

Chapter 37: TBH, I don't really remember what exactly happened in the previous chapters and I'm kinda lazy to reread them again. So I had continued with where I have stopped last. I understand Hyeri and Jennifer are the same person? But she's scared of Jaejoong now? I wonder why. Also, just by changing lenses people couldn't recognise her? :P jokes aside, why are they both in the hospital now? That's what I'm most curious about. I'll try to come back later to reread them again.

Chapter 37: Welcome back, I hope you’ve been well. Thank you so much for updating, I thought you’d given up on this story!

I’m glad they all know the truth now, but Yunho thinking Heyri needs protection from Jaejoong is a little worrying. I guess knowing who she is would be a little disconcerting though. I hope it’s not another couple of years before you update again, I can’t wait to see what happens when Jaejoong goes to her room.

Please take care and stay safe.

Chapter 36: Oh My My! Just at the beginning of this chapter, I was starting to think Jennifer is Heyri. And I was feeling pretty proud to have made that guess. But lol, you broke it all at the end by revealing Yunho's (step)mother. Anyway, I have finally caught up with the chapters. Now can't wait to read more. Hope to see an update soon ^^

Chapter 35: Well, Jaejoong is overly possessive and personally, I don't think it's the right thing. Hopefully, he will eventually realize that's he's being borderline evil and eventually have a nice character development. Will be back later to read more!
