Shin’s house. There, live 3 men for 1 and a half year already. Been the oldest of the house, Donghe or more known by his close acquaintance as Shindong and two young men who only turn 18 that year, Ryeowook and Henry.

Both younger went to the same institute by Henry’s older brother’s request. Once they got home,the routine would be the same everyday. Wash up. Cooking and eating. And then their personal time.

But today, both young Kim decided to lazing around in the backyard of the two story house. Enjoying the little snack made by the little chef, Ryeowook. Sitting at the garden’s chair with eyes either on their phone or the small pools of the koi’s fish.

Henry turns to Ryeowook. Watching as the man who quite smaller than his physique playing with his phone, ignoring his deep stare.

“Wookie.” Henry start to break the silent peace.

“Yeah?” reply the smaller without turning to Henry

“Remember that bullies who always waiting for me after class?”

At the words ‘bullies’ resonated into his ears, Ryeowook throw his phone to the garden white table. Fully interested with his friend’s talk.

“Yeah! Those 4 idiots! What did they do again?” said Ryeowook a bit to loud but knowing no one was at home at that time, he ignore the glare on Henry’s face.

Henry scoffed from the excited Ryeowook. “Yeah, them. They did nothing…. Well, they do approach me the other day but not for any beating. But to apologizes…”

“What!?”

“Yah! Did you swallow a megaphone before!? Stop being loud!”

“Sorry. I mean, who wouldn’t got shock from that. Those douchebags apologize to the midget Henry? the rumor about the world end are real.”

‘Plak’

“Who did you call a midget, hah? You never seeing a mirror before? Anyway, those 4 came to me and apologizes with bruised face.”

Ryeowook rubbing his bruised hand, cringing from Henry’s glare. 

“Did someone do something to them? I didn’t tell Heechul hyung at all. So who’s done it?”

“Aish. Why would someone beat them for me. What? All of sudden they had open their eyes from the beating and decide to be a good people and apologize? Tssk, not happening. There’s must be something wrong here.”

Ryeowook only nod as thought running around in his head. Trying to remember any of his mistake of telling on Henry about his sad misfortune but nothing had crossed his mind. Except the new neighbour who he had slip out some of Henry’s secret because of his big mouth.

“Well, let’s think it later. Henry ah, can I ask you something?”

Henry turn to the shorter and knit his brows, waiting for Ryeowook to ask him.

“I heard you talking with Heechul hyung the other about your other brother. Can I know, was he the Kim Yesung who disappear from entertainment world, the idol, Yesung?”

“Hemm…. yeah. Why?”

Henry’s answer had the smaller glimmering in hope. Eyes sparkles with excitement as he ran towards the house, leaving Henry confused with the reaction. Few minutes later, Ryeowook come back with few stuff Henry never know the smaller had.

“What’s that?”

Ryeowook excitedly shoving an album into the other’s face.

“This! Is the best album I ever heard! And this!” Ryeowook pick another one and shove it again into Henry’s face. “Save my life through my break up phase!”

Henry push away the album to inspect it closer, eyes widen up from the cover of the album.

“Yesung hyung? You have his albums?”

“Of course! I’m his big fan! I’ve been listening to him since highschool. He’s been my biggest inspiration but after the news of him went pension, I kinda went depressed about it.”

“Tssk drama queen. I never know he was this famous.” said Henry as he pick up another album. Staring at this older’s brother face on the cover. ‘Pink hair’ thought him with a chuckles, ignoring the babbling Ryeowook who went on with his fanboying moods.

‘How weird is it that we are so distance even when we live in the same house at that time…’

“You had meeting with Tan at his company in an hour, boss.”

“Stop with the boss, Donghae. I hate it.” said Yesung in annoyance from the younger tease.

“Well hat’s why I did it. Have you eat your lunch?” said Donghae.

Yesung nod. He know by now not to delay his meals time, just to not enrage the younger and his nagging.

“Good. We better finish up this one now. Their company a bit far away from here. It will take us 15 to 20 minutes.”

“Wow. Was it outside of this town?”

“Not really. Their secretary had send me the location but it’s not really outside of this place. Just so-so.”

Yesung hum and nod. Alas, he didn’t know much of the town’s map.

.
.
.

An hour had pass, both Donghae and Yesung were escorted by Kangin once they arrive at the Tan’s building. A bit different than his. Not to small being that the Tan cooperation are as par as his dad’s company but still had the humble vibe from the decoration and services.

“Mr Tan are waiting inside. Please come in.” said Kangin, showing a black wooden door at the end of the corridor. The color had bring up more dramatic sent in the environment.

“Thanks” said Donghae politely, following right behind Yesung as the older went inside the room.

Upon seeing Yesung emerge from the door, Hangeng quickly stood up right and greeting the two.

“You look much better now. How was it?”said Hangeng, leading them to a meeting desk.

“Ah.. I’m so sorry for you to witness my shameful moment. I’m so sorry.” said Yesung as he bow 90 degree towards Hangeng.

Frantically Hangeng went up and approach Yesung. “Hey it’s okay. It’s unavoidable. I’m glad you are all fine now.”

With a blush tainted cheeks, Yesung sheepishly nod. Embarrassed by his act and behaviour.

“Well thanks to my 24 hours monitoring him. He quite stubborn.”said Donghae, earning a laughter from Hangeng and a glaring Yesung.

“Ahaha. I like you Donghae ssi. You bold against your boss. Anyway, I hope you don’t mind I’m ordering drink and dessert for our meeting.” said Hangeng as he took out his phone and begin to dial some number.

Once it was all set, they begin their long hour meeting.

.
.
.

A sounds of footsteps blaring into the silent corridor. Without seeing the owner of the shoes, people might mistaking him as a woman from the loud steps. But alas even with his face shown to the public, people would still mistaken him for one.

“Oh hyung. Wait---” the secretary didn’t manage to stop his boss before the man barge into his husband’s office room.

“Yeobo! I’m--”

A file on his hands falls to the ground. Papers scattered everywhere as his hand were bring up to cup his mouth from the shock.

“Hun?!” Hangeng too was shocked by the sudden appearance of his husband who enter the office without his mask. Thus revealing his face to their guest, Yesung and Donghae.

Yesung watch at the newcomer, eyebrows knitting from the vague feeling.

“Ye--Yesung..?” said Heechul with still covering half of his face.

“Yes?” said Yesung in confusion. Not knowing what was so shocking to the older male.

Both Hangeng and Heechul darting their eyes towards Yesung. Weird feelings begin to submerge as the younger seems to not recognize his own brother’s face.

Wanting to make sure the truth, Heechul pull of his hand from his face. Walking towards Hangeng with a frown.

“Is everything alright? Hae nim ssi right?” said Yesung with a smile.

A pang of suspicion hit both Hangeng and Heechul. With that, Heechul resorted with pulling his husband out from the room.

Watching as the two went off, Donghae had the feeling with Heechul’s mixed reaction. Turning to the older who seems a bit conflicted with something. Nudging the older to get his attention, Yesung turn to him with a frown.

“What was that hyung?”

“Eh? I don’t know. Maybe he didn’t want us to see his face. He always wear a mask right?” said Yeusng with confused face.

Donghae only nod. Waiting for their partner to come back from the dispute.

Heechul drag his husband into his own office and lock it carefully.

“What was that? He didn’t recognize me? I don’t think I've change that much!”

“Chul, calm down. There’s must be something wrong here. Actually I had thought about the moment you guys first met. He didn’t even recognizes your voice.”

“Oh gosh you right… what happen to him?!”

“Hey, calm down. Now, we settle this later. I need to continue the meeting. I’m sorry I didn’t tell you about today meeting. You’ve been busy so I didn’t want you to stress yourself.”

Heechul soften his look at the caring husband and lover. Caressing the man’s cheeks lovingly.

“Thanks yeobo… now go. And don’t mention anything yet.”

“Ay ay queen.” said Hangeng teasingly, earning a playful slap by the giggling diva.

.

A door creaking breaking Yesung’s train of thought, he saw Hangeng enter the room with apologetic face.

“Sorry about that. My husband shocked by your presence. He didn’t know we had this meeting today.”

“Oh. I thought I did something wrong just now.” said Yesung with a warm smiles. Relief from his nervousness.

Hangeng smile awkwardly as he studying the younger’s face. Worried begin to gulf his being as for Yesung’s weird reaction upon his brother’s face.

They continue the meeting for another hour before they decide to stop for the day.

“Hope this project could help us show to the world how great two rival company working together.” said Hangeng with a laugh.

“Oh I’m sure it will.” Yesung smile from the older’s old people joke.

They were walking down the bottom floor with Heechul tailing from their behind, watching intensely at the back of Yesung’s head. The younger were chatting happily with Hangeng, laughing once in awhile from the older’s joke.

‘Why can’t you remember me….’ thought Heechul. A bit of frustration clings onto his arrogance heart. Denying the small jealousy as he watch Hangeng easily makes the Yesung who he knows rarely shows his expression laughing like a mad lad.

They were reaching to the front door as Yesung’s car arrive. Shaking their hand before Hangeng turn to Heechul who now daring enough to not wear a mask.

“Hun, they about to go now.” said Hangeng, indicating for the androgynous man to shake the smaller’s hand.

“Good to see you here,Yesung ssi. I’m sorry for not knowing your arrival just now.” said Heechul honesty. He did felt better to see the younger with no fatigues.

“Ah, it’s okay. Hangeng told us you a bit work up by your other project. That could be understandable.” Yesung bows a bit to Heechul politely.

‘Aish… so polite.’ Heechul blush a bit from the younger adorable attitude.

“Hyung!”

A shouts had catch the four men attention. Diverting Yesung’s attention fully on two young males running towards them.

“Sh*t…” muttered Heechul under his breath, sweating from the fact Henry had choose the ‘right’ time to visit him.

Henry running towards Heechul with a bright smiles. Trailing behind him was Ryeowook and a pale looking Shindong. The older of the 3 know the small man standing in front of his bosses. Trying to run after the young master but failed due to the lively Henry.

Henry upon seeing his hyung couldn’t help but feeling happy as it’s been days since the last time he saw him. Running with excitement, he tackle the older into a big hug.

“Hyung! I miss you!” said Henry, not knowing how nervous the older had from his sudden show up.

“Ah.. yes. I’m sorry for not coming to visit you. Could you wait inside for now?” said Heechul nervously, avoiding the younger from seeing Yesung at the moment.

“Oh okay! And who’s thi----”

Henry were struck with shock expression. There, in front of him. Stood alive his long lost older brother. Looking as confuse as Dongahe who seems to not catch up the whole thing yet.

“Ye.. Yesung hyung?” said Henry with shaken voice.

Hearing his name called by the younger so fondly, Yesung couldn’t help but to feel nostalgic even with his vague memory.

“Yes? Do I know you?” said Yesung unsure. A bit lost the moment he saw Henry but something had blocking his thought from remembering the nostalgic feelings.

The older’s question had Henry step back a little. He was so sure the older could ran towards him with a big hug but nothing happen as he wait for more. Only confusion had welcome him in the older’s eyes.

“Hyu..hyung don’t remember me?” said Henry.

Heechul begin to feels sympathy for his younger brother. He too was confused by Yeusng sudden memory’s trouble. Pulling the younger back into his hug, he tried to avoid the younger from doing more danger.

“I’m sorry. I don’t think we’ve meet before. What’s your name?” said Yesung carefully after the younger had this worried in his face.

Heechul lean towards Henry and whisper softly. “He doesn’t remember us. For now, just use my name as Hae nim and yours as Heejong. Understand? Please do this for now.”

Henry nod hesitantly. “I.. I’m Heejong…”

Yesung was about to ask something when a shrieking Ryeowook barge into their conversation.

“Omo! It’s Yesung hyung! I’m your biggest fan!” shouts Ryeowook in happiness.

“Oh, my fans. That’s why you know me?” said Yesung with smiles towards Henry and Ryeowook. Henry unwillingly nod. Heck he never know any of Yesung’s old album title track.

Ryeowook was still babbling about his love on the older’s music when he saw the sad looking Henry.

“Wasn’t he’s your---”

‘Bug’

A harsh elbows on his rib had him choked on his words. Henry glares towards him after give him a good ‘nudge’ to avoid him from spilling the mess.

“Aish… hurts. Oh man! I didn’t bring any of the album for hyung to sign!” shouts Ryeowook in agony.

Yesung chuckles from the two childish antic. He ruffles Ryeowook’s hair softly, earning a squeals from the younger.

“I’ll be having the next meeting soon so you can come here too. I’m happy to know there’s still people who remember me.” said Yesung.

The older’s word had them saddening, knowing how the older look much more happier in his music career.

“Well, I should go now. Hangeng ssi, Hae nim ssi, it’s nice to meet you.thanks for the great service here. Let’s go Hae.” said Yesung as he wave to them while walking towards the car.

“Bye hyung! Make sure to sign the album in the future!” said Ryeowook as he waving towards the smiling Yesung.

They stood still until the car were out from their sight. Henry turns towards Heechul. Glaring at the older with accusing face.

“What?” said Heechul with a frown.

“You didn’t tell me you already found him!” Henry shouts in anger. Feeling betrayed by the older.

Hangeng sigh from the two kim’s bickering at the front door. Inviting more workers to watch the free show.

“Hey, let’s talk inside. Heechul ah, people can see your face.”

“Tssk.”

.
.
.

Hangeng watch as both Henry and Heechul only stares at each other. Waiting for the right moment to tell the younger kim about the whole ordeal. After sending Ryeowook to Shindongs’s care, he stood by Heechul who now confronting the younger.

“Listen here, Henry ah. About what happen with me and Yesung. I’m so sorry for not telling you. At first, I didn’t know I will be working with Yesung too but thanks to your brother in-law, we met.” Heechul glare once at the smiling Hangeng.

“So why he can’t remember you? He didn’t recognize me who he at least live together for the longest. What happen hyung? And gosh look at his skinny body! He look so different!” said Henry in frustration.

“I don’t know too. We suspecting things had happen after they throw you out…” said Heechul.

“We? More like only me. You still angry at him, Chul ah.” said Hangeng as he shook his head.

Henry glares at the older brother, face red from anger. “ I told you to stop blaming him!”

“No. I’m not.. I didn’t blame him anymore… not after he fainted the other day.. that kind open my eyes a little bit…” said Heechul with full of honest. He knew well he can’t lie towards the younger ho he loves the most.

“He fainted?! Oh my Gosh… what else did happen behind my back…” said Henry with teary eyes. Worried begin to cloud his mind, thinking about his other brother who clearly worrying them.

‘Aish you big mouth Heechul’ Heechul curse himself for slipping out.

Hangeng approach the smaller and hug him to his chest. Caressing the younger’s back to calm him down. Watching his two family fighting weren’t a pleasure thing in his eyes.

“It’s okay. Hyung still finding out what happen to Yesung. We won’t let your parent hurt him any longer.” said Hangeng softly.

“You think… this has to do with eomma and appa?” said Henry between his sobs.

“Obviously. Henry ah. Hyung are so sorry for hiding things from you. I didn’t mean to do that..” said Heechul, joining the hugs.

“It’s okay… at least I can see him from now on. Right, Hangeng hyung?”

Hangeng nod lovingly. Earning a big smiles from Henry. Heechul sigh in relief. Sooner or later, both his younger brother will meet each other.

.
.
.

On the way back to the company, Donghae begin to bombarding Yesung with his curiosity.

“Hyung. Do you remember any of your siblings face?”

“Of course. Why did you ask?”

“Em… tell me their features now.”

“Eh? What kind of request is that?”

“Just do it.” said Donghae in annoyance.

“Fine. Heechul hyung has… he has..ummm… face?”

“Hyung!” Donghae feels teased by the older’s answer.

“Wait! wait… um… I do remember Henry’s. He… Hah. That’s weird… I can’t….”

Donghae begin to worry about the older. He know by now the two siblings that claim themselves as Hae nim and Heejong was indeed Yesung’s long lost brother. But seeing the older lack of reaction had him irked.

“What do you mean by that?”

Yesung turns towards him slowly, face pale with a frown. Taking the younger’s hand shakingly into his.

“Hae… I can’t remember their faces….”
