HORIZON / Haechan FF/ Soulmate AU/ Gang

CHAPTER 22

The silence in the room , contrasted the chaos in each one's mind.

Aera's father was one of the persons that sent these threatning letters and it didn't take long for donghyuck to figure out that there were two people behind this.

The first paragh seemed to describe aera's father and someone else with both of them having some grudge on the same person. His dad.

He didn't want to call him that. Well you ask why he didn't kill him yet? Donghyuck actually tried to once and that was a few days after his father killed his sister right infront of his eyes. He was small and decided to take a knife and attempted to shove it from behind while father spoke in phone alone in his office. Back faced towards haechan , he was so engrossed that he didn't realise haechan coming closer but before he could jab it in a hand caught his hand and closed his mouth pulling him out.

It was his mother.

"Mom! You know what he has done to-"

"Lee Donghyuck!!! Your still small! Where did you get the idea to kill your father , your parent! For god's sake dont try anything stupid like this!!" She screamt at him after closing the door inside the bedroom they were in.

"B-but m-mom I hate him!" Donghyuck cried as his mom hugged him immediately.

"Honey...he might be bad , he might kill , but he is still whom I fell in love with , my soulmate...so please just bare with him...we can't do anything about it...let's be thankful for what we have..hmm?"

He nodded in his mother's embrace feeling so weak..

The memory stuck in his mind everytime he thought playfully of killing his dad.

He sighed , now leaning on the railing of the balcony which was on the backside facing a dense forest but with a little water system.

Attacking this side was impossible cause the forest was poisonous. And so there were balcony and windows this side.

A lot of thoughts were surrounding his mind.

Who could this other person be?
Why was aera's dad threatning them?
What did his dad do against them?
How is he going to protect aera from her own father?
How is he going to-

His thoughts were cut off by soft hands circling around his waist as a small head placed itself at his back.

He held her hand that was around his waist , rubbing it slowly.

"We can do it...it's fine even if it's my own father we are against..I don't have much feelings for any man on earth other than the one I'm holding" she said firmly. If you thought she was weak your wrong. Being through so much was enough for her strong mentality.

Sure she loved her dad , but she hardened her feelings for him after realising he left her blaming her for her mother's death too.

At one point she believed that too , but that was until her mother came in her dream. Reassuring her that it was all fate. Her mother seemed to comfort her and that worked quite well.

Haechan just smiled lightly at her words. This girl was strong afterall. But one turn around and he knows she is going to have tears already.

And she indeed was.

He turned around and hugged her tightly as she cried silently in his chest.

He carressed her hair and held her close like she would go away if he left her.

"It's going to be difficult you know that right? But I promise once this is over , there's nothing that can make you feel pain again...we can just live happily together" he said kissed her forehead and looked down at her as she looked up at him with her head facing upwards from his chest.
