CH8: Truth (Part 2)
Want You BackThe street looks foggy
He sees nobody
Dead
Dried
Dreadful
Everything around looks dull
He keeps walking
Seeking for a light
" Hyung "
He hear somebody called him
Familiar voice
He turns around
He sees nobody
" I'll be leaving "
The same voice keeps whispering
But still
He still sees nobody
" Hyung , hyung .. "
Again
He can't take it anymore
Chan Yeol: What the do you want from me ?!
Chan Yeol screams
It startles Baek
Seeing his hyung screaming for no reason
He opens his eyes
Sweats flooding his face
Chan Yeol: Ah ! It was just a dream !
Baek: Hyung ? Is everything okay ? I'm sorry I just woke you up so that could be..
Chan Yeol: Shh nope. I'm sorry. I just had a nightmare. Sorry for startling you.
Scent of coffee filling the entire cafe
Baek: Ka.. mong.. cafe ?
Chan Yeol: Ha Ha cute. Let's get in, it's cold at the outside
Both of them enters the cafe
Baek being curious
Why is Chan Yeol bringing him here for breakfast
Chan Yeol: Ayo man ! What's up ?
Kai: Hey Giant. I'm good. Helping out my sister with her new opened cafe
Chan Yeol: And that's why I'm here. Since I'm one of the early birds, think I should got discounts or something..
Kai: Ha Ha of course. Go get any seats you two would like to have. Wait, wow. Who's this cutie pie?
Kai pinches Baek's fulffy cheeks
But Baek is still stiff. He feels awkward. He doesn't even know who on earth is he.
Chan Yeol: Hey don't touch. He's mine
Both of them giggling
Kai: Ah I see. He's cute anyway. Hi cutie pie, welcome to Kamong cafe
Kai winks and letting both of the sweet couple choosing their own seats in the cafe
Comfying themselves
Baek sits, so does Chan Yeol
A waiter comes over with two cups of special homemade coffee
Serving to both of them
Baek sees a name tag written 'Barista Xiumin' attached on the waiter's shirt
" I bet he's Chinese. Cool name, Xiumin " Baek murmurs alone
Chan Yeol: What is it Baek ?
Baek: Ha Ha nothing. It's just .. I miss mom.
Chan Yeol: Ha Ha I never knew you're such a crybaby
Baek: Mom has been suffering from illness before I got moved. I'm worried if she's getting better or even worse
Chan Yeol: Ah , I'm sorry. I didn't meant to. Why about paying your mom a visit ?
Baek: But it's too far away from here. And my money is not enough for a trip from here to home
Chan Yeol: Leave it to me. We'll go visit your mom by today.
Baek: Really hyung? Jjang ! Thanks hyung
Baek's frowning face immediately turns into a bright smiling happy face
He knows this little boy missing his mom so much
Kai started the engine
Kai: Come in ! Don't be shy
Baek enters the car
So does Chan Yeol
He sits at the in front
While Baek sitting at behind alone
The red Audi A3 Sportback e-tron rolls its wheels on the road
Heading to Gangnam
Baek is getting excited
He smiles all along their journey to Gangnam
The place where Baek has been well raised up by his beloved mom
In the middle of silence Kai starts to talk
Kai: How is your relationship with Hwe Ji ?
Chan Yeol: What kind of question are you giving me idiot. We've been over, about months ago
Kai: But she keeps telling me that you're the one who refuses to start it all over again
Chan Yeol: I'm no longer interested in her. Not anymore.
Kai: What about I'm taking your position? Ha Ha kidding
Chan Yeol worries about Kai's fishy question
This might be interrupting Baek's feelings towards him
So does their current relationship
Chan Yeol: You're pleased to do so. I already got Baek. Am I right baby ?
He winks. Baek almost burst into laughters seeing his hyung doing the 'failed' eye-winking
Baek: You look retarded. Stop winking
Chan Yeol stops winking and holds Kai's shoulder
Whispering into the young rich man's right ear
Chan Yeol: Baek's mine. Stop talking about Hwe Ji
Kai: Whoah ! Seriously ?
That surprisingly awesome. Kai was a gay back then but he has changed into a normal straight guy for now but ..
His own bestfriend is also a gay now. Wow just wow
They keeps talking and teasing each other
Until they reached Baek's home
Baek knocks the door
Pushing the doorbell button again and again
No one aswers
An old woman passes by
Baek stops the woman
Baek: I'm sorry auntie Yeong Ja, but do you know where is my mom ?
Yeong Ja: Ah is this you Baek ? You look good.
Baek: Thanks but where's mom ?
Yeong Ja: She.. she's been admitted into the hospital. Few weeks ago
The hospital looks busy
Seems like there's too much people are getting treatments at the moment
It's the season of everyone being infected by illness, maybe
Baek enters the ward
Seeking for a bed labelled with number 12
He sees his mom
Lying on the bed
Both eyes are closed
Baek: Mom ! I'm back. I miss you.
He hugs her tight
He knows something would went wrong once he leaves her alone
Baek's Mom: Son, you're back
She's got awake
Having her only beloved son by her side is a good thing
She hugs him with tears
Thanking God for giving her chance meeting his son before the time takes her away from him
Soon
It's been 30 minutes
Chan Yeol and Kai stand behind Baek
Patting the little boy's back
Baek's Mom: Baek, if anything happens to me, promise me you'll always be a good boy. Study well, work well, get married, and have children.
Baek: Mom ~!
Baek's Mom: Please ? This is the only wish from me. Promise me dear.
Chan Yeol smiles at the outside
But he's hurt inside
Hearing what has Baek's mom said
He knows their relationship won't last longer
There will be sacrifices
No matter how successful the relationship would be
Chan Yeol pats Baek's head gently
Chan Yeol: Be a good son. Don't worry auntie. I'll take good care of him for you and teach him to be a good boy.
Baek: But hyung..
Chan Yeol: No. Listen what has your mom told you earlier. Am I right auntie ? (faking a smile)
Baek's Mom smiles. She's counting on the tall young man, she hopes he will take good care of Baek for her
Baek's being stiff. He has no idea what's going on.
He feels guilty for Chan Yeol. And so does his mom.
