"YOU DIDN’T agree with Cho Dongpyo’s plan to fake kidnap our son, did you?" Garam asked, frustrated, while hitting Song Sihyuk in the back repeatedly. He was only smacking the Alpha lightly because he didn’t want to hurt his own hands. "I still don’t trust Cho Dongpyo!"
"Don’t worry, Garam-ah. I have no intention of letting those bastards even get near our son," Song Sihyuk assured him, just letting Garam hit him without a single complaint. In fact, this pervert seed to be enjoying getting smacked a little. "That’s why Cho Dongpyo and I decided that I should pretend that I have lost my mories. It only happened once, so we were able to deceive the society mbers."
He knew that Song Sihyuk wouldn’t put their son’s life in danger, but he was still relieved to hear that the Alpha hadn’t lost his mind yet.
I wouldn’t forgive Hyung if he risked our son’s life for real.
"Garam-ah, if you’re still upset, should I punch myself?"
"What are you saying now?"
"You’re hurting your hands by hitting nonstop. I don’t want you to get hurt. I’d rather punch myself than let you continue hurting yourself."
Aigooya.
Garam stopped hitting Song Sihyuk. "How did you deceive the wild Ogas in that society?"
"’Wild Ogas?’"
"Those Ogas allowed themselves to be swallowed by their hatred towards Alphas, to the point that they are willing to hurt even the innocent ones. They call themselves a society, but they act so uncivilized. Call cruel, but I believe they’re acting like wild animals with that mindset."
Of course, as a Beta turned Oga, Garam could see where the ’wild’ Ogas were coming from.
Even he would curse at Alphas often, even at his own (ex) husband.
Not all Alphas, but it’s always the Alphas.
Having said that, he was not blinded with rage.
Moreover...
"Anyone who tries to harm my child automatically loses their human rights," Garam said. "So, I’ll call them wild Ogas from now on."
Song Sihyuk blinked, and then he burst out laughing. "Aigooya. Why are you being so cute, Garam-ah?"
"I’m not joking with you, Song Sihyuk-ssi," Garam said sternly, crossing his arms over his chest. "So, what did you achieve by pretending to have lost your mories?"
"According to Cho Dongpyo, the ’wild Ogas’ have already run a background check on . So, they already know how obsessed I am with you. They wouldn’t believe that I’ve gotten back together with Cho Donypyo without the excuse of losing my mories—"
"You pretended that you’ve gotten back together with Cho Dongpyo?"
"Uh, to be precise, the story is that I only have mories of my college years— the years when I was still with Cho Dongpyo. So, Cho Dongpyo decided to use that chance to take advantage of ."
Garam clenched his hands tight.
He and Song Sihyuk were already divorced, so it was none of his business.
But I’m still freaking annoyed.
"We went with that story so we could buy ti," Song Sihyuk continued with his explanation. "Since I lost my mories, Cho Dongpyo explained to his fellow Ogas that he’s still helping rember about my son. And that once I have accepted the fact that I have a son, then I’ll bring him here. That’s the script we’re following."
"Ah, I see."
Oops.
Garam didn’t want to sound bitter, but that was exactly how he sounded just now.
"But Cho Dongpyo is almost done stealing the dicine that he needs, so this whole amnesia thing is about to end."
"What if Cho Dongpyo gets caught?"
"Cho Dongpyo has a plan, and he also has an offer to make so that those wild Ogas will give up on our son."
To be honest, Garam was curious about Cho Dongpyo’s plan.
But he suddenly lost his interest in prolonging the conversation because his mood was already ruined.
Hence, he didn’t ask.
"Just make sure that Cho Dongpyo’s plan will work. If our son gets hurt again, I’ll never forgive the two of you."
"I wouldn’t have agreed with Cho Dongpyo’s plan if I knew it would harm our son," Song Sihyuk assured Garam. "And I only agreed to work with Cho Dongpyo because I saw how obsessed Cho Dongpyo is with his new partner. I’m 100% certain that he’s no longer interested in . In fact, he’s not even asking for my pheromones."
Garam also knew that.
An Oga rarely falls for another Oga. Even I, as a Beta back then, knew that an Oga dating each other is extrely rare. So, if Cho Dongpyo wants to get his fellow male Oga pregnant, then he must really be serious about their relationship.
That was why Garam was relieved and confident that Cho Dongpyo had completely moved on with soone else.
I shouldn’t be feeling this way, but I can’t help it.
"Garam-ah, I’m doing this because the reward is worth it," Song Sihyuk said carefully. "If I gain access to the pharma that Cho Dongpyo runs, then we’ll be able to develop a cure for you quicker. You’ll be able to return to being a Beta in a faster and safer way."
Ah, about that...
Hmm.
No, let’s not tell Hyung for now.
"Garam-ah, I’m sorry for not telling you in advance," Song Sihyuk said, obviously feeling guilty. "I didn’t an to ghost you again."
Haaah.
Garam could only sigh while shaking his head. "Well, I deserve what I tolerate."
***
I MADE Garam upset again.
But, instead of getting angry, Lim Garam just sighed and left the room so Song Sihyuk could rest.
And that scared him.
It’s as if Garam has already stopped caring about .
No, it was as if Lim Garam had no expectations from him anymore.
Like he’s perpetually disappointed in already.
It was worse than being hated on.
"Daddy?"
Ah, his son ca to visit him in his room while he was resting.
"Co here, Gunwoo-ya," Song Sihyuk said while patting the space next to him. "Were you looking for ?"
"I picked up sothing, Daddy! It fell out of your pocket when Uncle Han carried you here," Song Gunwoo explained excitedly while sitting next to Song Sihyuk on the bed. And then his son pulled out a small velvet box from his pocket. "What’s this, Daddy?"
Ah!
Song Sihyuk’s eyes widened a bit when he recognized the familiar box.
Aigooya.
I almost lost them, huh?
"Thank you for picking it up, Gunwoo-ya," Song Sihyuk said, relieved. "I can’t propose to your dad without them."
Yes, the little box contained the wedding rings that he designed years ago.
And it’s the biggest reason I returned to New York.
Song Gunwoo gasped. "Are you going to propose to Dad, Daddy? Just like in the movies?"
Just what kind of movies has my son been watching these days?
Oh, well.
I’m sure Garam wouldn’t have let our son watch sothing inappropriate for his age.
"Yes, son. I’m going to propose to your dad," Song Sihyuk said, smiling while gently patting Song Gunwoo’s head. "Wanna help ?"
