“ANDWEEEEE... APAAAAA!” Taekwoon screams as he woke up from his dream.
Jaehwan who was fallen asleep get shocked and directly woke up too, asking Taekwoon. “Hyung, are you okay?”
Taekwoon caught his breath, and silently went out from the room to the toilet.
He washed his face and tried to forget about his dream.
“I’m dreaming of you again, Dad.. I’m dreaming about that time again..” He muttered while covering his face.
