Kwān

chapter : 17

Apo's tenth birthday:

Apo is swinging at the penthouse balcony - above 20 floors. Little apo is excited for his  birthday party , he will see his family.
Mile has confined him here - above three months. He cried a lot but Mile doesn’t listen.

These days he finds Mile little rude.
He is shouting a lot, he slapped Apo two times in this week.
Slowly he is getting afraid of his favourite brother.

"Master Let's go downstairs, everyone has arrived."
Happily Apo nodded, and ran outside in his long fluffy gold-embedded skirt.
His priceless heavy anklets were making a melody behind his tranche.

He saw his mother from a far, she is sitting in a wheel chair. Without looking anywhere else, Apo approached his mother and hugged her.

"Happy birthday, my son"
"Mom why didn’t you come to see soon? I was waiting"
Little Apo complained.
"Mom is sorry my love. Forgive mom"
She was sobbing.
Little Apo still didn’t understand why his mother was saying sorry.

Before any further conversation could take place, a pair of hands clutched Apo from behind.

"Baby, Let's go and cut the cake"
"But Mile let me stay with mom"
Apo whined

But Mile just took him on his arms and went towards the stage.
The cake was castle themed.

Everything went well - everyone had dinner silently. But Apo was trying to remove himself and went to his mother.
But Mile didn’t leave him for a minute.

Mile took Apo's hand and went towards his throne.
"Everyone I have an announcement."
Mile put Apo on his seat - every other people present there gasped.
It was forbidden - no one can sit on the throne except the king.

"Here I, present you - your Kwan"
All the guests stilled. Hearing this, no one could form a word.
But little Apo could not understand the severity of this word.
He was having his chocolate - not fearing the future.

"My king, how can this be possible?"
The president of Ohama group tried to reason.
But soon his voice got silenced, The king's bullet pierced through his head.
"Anyone else?" the king roared.
Fearing for their life, everyone backed their steps.
"Thought so"

A maid came forward with a black box.
Mile opened it - revealing a veil adorned with precious gems.
It was so dazzling that the large hall shone because of it.

Mile came close to Apo - little Apo always loved shiny things.
"Is it my gift?"
"Yes, my Kwan"
"Thank you so much Mile. I love it"
Little Apo was really happy, this gift really shows how much his brother loves him.

Unaware of the darkness left behind this brightness~

Mile covered Apo's face with the veil.
Smiling at his achievement.
Yes, he achieved both the throne and his Kwan.
"From today this face is only for me. I will decide who will see his face or who will not. Anyone dares to defy me will have his head cut"
It was more like a sworn.

Apo didn’t understand the meaning but he was happy with the precious gems he got - smiling happily.
His mother was on the verge of dying in grievance. But even her husband can't do anything. Kim as usual not interested stood at the corner.

When it was time to say good bye, Apo was crying loudly - clutching his mother. His mother was also wailing.
"Mom don’t cry. Mile said i will see you soon. Don’t cry. Look this cloth is so pretty!"
His mom silent prayed for this naive child.
"I wish you all the happiness in this world my love"

"I will give him all the happiness, not anyone else"

Mile took him forcefully inside their bedroom.

Inside the bedroom, Mile was looking intensely at Apo.
Apo was now only wearing on of Mile's shirt and running around the room with his veil. The anklets were making a sweet noise to Mile. He was hypnotized.

"Apo, come here"
Slapping his own thigh, indicating Apo to sit there.
Apo sat comfortably, "mile when will i see mom again?"
"Soon" mile smirked, smelling Apo's neck - he bit the skin making little Apo cry.
"It hurts mile"
"It will be good soon. Mile feels good by this. Will you say no to your Mile?"
"Ok but do this just one time"
Mile bit him again, with more force drawing blood.

Little Apo didn’t know it was just the start of : more pain.

Present :

"Love are you ok?"
Ken asked the sweating Apo.
They are now in the mall looking for a perfect dress for the dinner party.
They had a small wedding, so Ken decided to throw a party for  family and friends.

Ken forced Apo to go to a professional designer but Apo said he will just a suit, no need to spend so much money.
But when Ken came back Apo was staring at a bridal veil - at first he thought Apo liked it but soon he noticed Apo was sweating profusely.

"Huh... Yeah. Good, just confused"
"Are you sure?"
He nodded, "Let's go see that one"
Ken knew perfectly Apo was trying to avoid the questions. So being the good husband he decided to go with it.

"Apo how about we were white?"
Apo smiled, "why? no one wears white in the dinner party"
"No one wears so what? We will"
Ken acted cute.
Apo couldn’t resist the charm of his husband, "ok"
"Let's go"

Apo and Ken went inside the shop to try their suits - with hand in hand, smiling lovingly at each other.
