Chapter 21
Memories engraved in the season's[CONTENTID1]
To say Lotte world is a mere amusement part is an understatement. Lotte World is THE amusement part of South Korea. It has the world's largest indoor theme park an outdoor amusement park called "Magic Island", an artificial island inside a lake linked by a monorail, shopping malls, a luxury hotel a Korean folk museum, sports facilities, and movie theaters. There are soo many attractions in Lotte world that a single day isn’t enough to explore everything, unless you have a hyper-energetic kid who had been there for more than a, like what, dozen times? JongIn isn’t sure. He himself had bought Yuno for like 4 times before this and he is sure, Yuno’s parents whom the kid had wrapped around his fingers would have bought him like a billion times.
Yuno was still young, not reaching the height limit for many of the scary rides in the park, but Lotte had enough rides to offer every kid from different age ranges. The first thing they do, go to the Kids' Zone. Yuno ends up riding every single ride in the Zone, even making Kyungsoo and JongIn ride few which permitted adults. They sit through a fairytale theater, watch some dolphin show and let Yunie play bumping cars. They have a late lunch at the Lotte Hotel, all that adrenaline rush didn’t make the kid hungry until he was done with his ride. Once done, they take the monorail to the magic island and that’s when Yuno gets all hyped, once again. All those adult rides get him all fascinated and when he gets height accepted for one of the rides, he goes crazy, throwing tantrums at JongIn who gives him a big no.
“Pleeeeez Uncle, let me ride only this one ride, pleas nini uncle.”
“No, you are too young for that ride, so what if you got height permitted; I am not letting you take that ride.”
“But…but, you can also come with me, I will not go alone, plezzz.” Yuno's eyes water up, jutting his lower lip as he stares at his uncle with his ultimate puppy eye. Kyungsoo melts, cooing at the boy in his hands and turns to his husband.
“Come on JongIn-shi, it is not a scary ride like the roller coaster, it's simple, just a bit bumpy, I am sure Yuno can handle it. Isn’t it Yunie?”
When the boy nods his head with a pout, JongIn sighs. Of course, he is going to fall for his nephew, why was he even trying to deny him?? It’s just going to be waste of time either way.
“Ok, only this ride, you are not allowed to take any other ride in this place. Once you get older, you can always come back to take the rest. You get me??”
When Yuno nods his head one more time, JongIn smiles, taking his nephew into his hands and marching up to the ticketing counter. Kyungsoo declines their offer to join them, not liking rides and preferring to stay on the ground.
He gazes up once JongIn and Yuno walk out of his sight, waiting for them to pop up on the ride in front of him when he feels someone tapping on his shoulder. Turning around, he finds a man, an alpha, a bit taller than him, and a bit tan like JongIn, looking at him with a heart-shaped grin, his shallow eyes staring at him meticulously. He had Choco-colored hair, dressed in a comfortable outfit, and his pheromones of Bay leaf, Patchouli, and with a hint of oakmoss was too familiar to ignore. The guy pulls away, with a hesitating smile as gestures towards Kyungsoo and asks.
“Are you, by any chance, Do Kyungsoo from goodwill orphanage??” he questions and Kyungsoo blinks in realization.
“Are you, Hoseok Hyung?” Kyungsoo asks back in astonishment and the older alpha’s grin widens, pulling him into a tight hug.
“OMG, I can’t believe, yes, It’s me, Hoseok, damn Kyungsoo, I am happy that you still remember me!!”
“Same at you” Kyungsoo laughs at his hyper energetic hyung. Still the sunshine he is used to. Hoseok was his hyung slash best friend back in the orphanage. He was a few years older than Kyungsoo, maybe around 4 years or so, and had always been someone he looked up to. Hoseok was quite funny and all the kids in the orphanage loved him for that. Kyungsoo used to be his littlie duckling until Hoseok got adopted. He remembers crying a lot, praying that Hoseok would come back, but mother superior had told him that Hoseok went to a faraway place and he can’t come back anymore. Ev
