OUR SHAM marriage should have ended the mont I woke up from my coma.
That was what Wonyoung thought.
Their marriage started with impure intentions, after all.
Hyung and I both already got what we wanted, so it’s ti we end this.
"Appa, if you divorce Yun Dujun-ssi, he’ll get full custody of Yun Yuhyun and I," An Baekya reminded him. "I’m not trying to dishearten you. But you know that it will be hard for you to win against Yun Dujun-ssi in a custody war, don’t you?"
"I’ll win."
"You will?"
"Don’t worry about it, Baekya. I won’t lose you or Yuhyun— there are other ways to win against Dujun Hyung in that aspect," Wonyoung said determinedly, then he got up and wiped his tears. "Baekya, wait for here. I’ll go ho and pack my things, then I’ll return." He paused for a mont, rembering that Bae Gayoung wasn’t there. "Oh, I’ll keep you company until Gayoung returns."
"You can go, Appa," An Baekya said encouragingly. "I’m not a child— I can take care of myself."
"Baekya, it’s okay to act like a child from ti to ti."
"It’s embarrassing to act like that when I have the mind of an adult."
"You’ll hate for this, but I sotis wish you didn’t retrieve your mories when you turned back ti."
"If I hadn’t, then I would have been sold off to a greedy relative and repeated my past life all over again."
"No, I wouldn’t have let that happen," Wonyoung said firmly. "When I realized that I returned here, my first goal was to et you. I don’t know why, but I felt the strong urge to find you, Baekya. In fact, I even ignored Yuhyun at the ti."
"Oh."
"Even if you didn’t have your past mories, I would have still raised you in this lifeti."
"But I like keeping my old mories, Appa."
"May I know why? Excuse for being harsh, but you suffered all your life. Is it really for the better to keep those awful mories? I get that you need your old mories to succeed as an actor. But is it worth it?"
An Baekya fell silent for a mont, obviously deep in thought.
Wonyoung was about to apologize for being nosy, but then, the kid suddenly started talking.
Hence, he kept his mouth shut and listened carefully.
"I know that this is just be being stubborn, but I don’t want to forget anything," An Baekya said sternly, his face darkening— an expression that didn’t suit a child. "I want to live with the mories of my past life, so I would never lower my guard ever again."
Lower his guard towards Yun Yuhyun.
That was probably what the kid ant by that.
An Baekya didn’t have to say it, Wonyoung just knew that Yun Yuhyun was the reason the child didn’t want to forget his old mories.
A sad realization hit him then.
An Baekya’s hate for Yun Yuhyun runs deeper than I think.
***
WONYOUNG only left the apartnt after Bae Gayoung returned.
He had a nice dinner with An Baekya and his cousin.
After that, he went ho— driving Yun Dujun’s luxury car.
Of course, he drove as carefully as possible.
That ant it took him longer than usual to reach the house.
I an, it’s scary to drive a car as expensive as that.
"Wonyoung-ah..."
Of course, Yun Dujun greeted him as soon as Wonyoung got ho.
To be honest, the Alpha kept sending him a text ssage every one hour. He ignored all the ssages.
Fortunately, Yun Dujun didn’t try to call him.
I would have turned off my phone had he done that.
"Have you eaten?"
"I already had dinner with Baekya and Gayoung," Wonyoung answered coldly. "Hyung, I’ll just take a quick shower. After that, let’s talk in the study."
The study was soundproof.
Not like anyone would eavesdrop on them.
But it’s better safe than sorry.
"Alright," Yun Dujun said calmly. "I’ll wait for you, then."
***
WONYOUNG was glad that Yun Yuhyun was already asleep when he returned ho.
I don’t know how to face my son when I’m about to divorce his father.
Anyway, after taking a shower and changing into a shirt and a pair of sweatpants, he went to the study.
As expected, the Alpha was already waiting for him.
Wonyoung also noticed that there were cups of coffee and a variety of pastries on the table.
There was a lounge area in the study, after all.
"I prepared coffee and snacks," Yun Dujun said, pointing at the seat across from him. "Have a seat, Wonyoung-ah."
Wonyoung just nodded before sitting down. "I’ll get straight to the point, Hyung."
"Go ahead."
"I want a divorce."
It was annoying how Yun Dujun had remained calm and collected.
Well, Wonyoung wasn’t expecting the Alpha to cry and beg in front of him.
But he also didn’t expect him to stay still.
"You can’t threaten with the kids like you did when I asked for a divorce after waking up from my coma," Wonyoung said firmly. "If you have so conscience left in you, you wouldn’t take the kids away from . If you bring to court for a custody war, then I’ll hate you forever. No, actually, why don’t I just kill myself in front of you—"
"Bae Wonyoung, don’t talk like that."
Wonyoung flinched when Yun Dujun used that tone on him— that nagging, cold voice that made him embarrassed by the things that he just said.
Admittedly, he said stupid things.
But...
"You don’t have the right to scold ," Wonyoung said stubbornly, his voice shaking a little because of both anger and humiliation. "You hurt , you bastard."
"I know, but please don’t threaten to hurt or kill yourself, Wonyoung-ah," Yun Dujun said calmly, then he got up from his seat only to get down on one knee in front of Wonyoung. After that, he looked up at him with pleading eyes. "I was a scumbag who used you for my thod acting without your knowing. It’s true that I didn’t want to divorce you because I wanted to practice the role of a doting husband on you. But I’ve easily forgotten about my original goal when we started to get closer, Wonyoung-ah. You made feel things I haven’t felt for anyone. Before I knew it, I just found myself falling in love with you."
Wonyoung’s tears fell down his cheeks quietly.
There was no reason for Yun Dujun to lie at this point since he was already busted.
Hence, he could tell that the Alpha was being sincere.
Hyung loves .
"If you’ve fallen for already, why didn’t you tell about your thod acting?" Wonyoung complained between sobs. "Why did I have to hear that from Lee Heeju?"
Well, he didn’t exactly hear it from Lee Heeju, but that didn’t matter anymore.
At least, I managed to ruin their friendship as revenge.
"This may sound stupid, but the only reason I didn’t tell you was that I’ve completely forgotten not only about my plan, but also the audition itself. In fact, I only rembered it when you brought it up during the photoshoot."
Ah.
Co to think of it, Wonyoung rembered that Yun Dujun looked shocked at the ti.
Was it when he rembered the audition? And the fact that he’s supposed to be using thod acting on ?
"I wanted to tell you the truth, but I didn’t expect Lee Heeju to beat to it," Yun Dujun said while wiping the tears on Wonyoung’s cheeks with his hands. "I didn’t know why he did that—"
"You didn’t know?"
"I’m sorry," Yun Dujun said, imdiately realizing his mistake. "I just found out that day that Lee Heeju has feelings for ."
"I’ve been telling you discreetly that Lee Heeju has feelings for you."
"I just realized it when soone spelled it out for ."
The only person with them that day was Spencer Choi.
So, Daepyonim had a slip of tongue?
"I’m sorry for being dense, Wonyoung-ah."
"That’s not what I want to hear from you, Hyung."
"I rejected Lee Heeju as soon as you left."
Damn, I shouldn’t have left right away.
Yeah, Wonyoung was being an to Lee Heeju.
But he couldn’t help it after seeing a piece of his old mory.
I have a feeling that Heeju Ahjussi has done worse.
"I’m sorry for giving you a reason to doubt my feelings for you, Wonyoung-ah," Yun Dujun said softly. "I’m not expecting you to forgive right away, so I’ll give you what you want."
"What I want?"
"Yes, so let’s divorce, Wonyoung-ah."
Excuse ?
Yes, Wonyoung asked for a divorce.
Yes, it was what he wanted from Yun Dujun, but...
... but I didn’t expect Dujun Hyung to accept my request easily!
Where was the begging?
The groveling?
And the crying?!
I’m the one who wants to cry now!
