Save Me

30

Two months have passed since Haknyeon suffered a devastating accident that left him paralyzed. However, miraculously, he had regained the ability to use his legs again, thanks to Minghao's acupuncture skills.

Despite this, he had kept his recovery a secret from Hyunjae, the others, and even his grandmother. The only ones aware of his condition were Sangyeon, Kevin, Jacob, Chanhee and Wonwoo, all of whom had been by his side and supported him throughout his recovery journey.

In addition, there had been no news or contact from his aunt, Sungha, who had recently gone on vacation to Hawaii. This gave him some semblance of relief, considering the fact that he would no longer have to interact with her in the immediate future. However, he remained cautions about the potential of encountering her at a later date and the actions she might take to his detriment.

"Haknyeon? Are you done?" asked Chanhee from outside his room.

"I'm done!"

Today, his siblings and their neighbours had organized an outing to Jeju Island, planning to spend some quality time together on the beautiful beaches. Sangyeon had reserved a beach house in order to ensure that they would have comfortable accommodations for their stay on the island.

Haknyeon emerged from his room, carrying his bag, as the others had already assembled in the living room.

"You're ready?" asked Kevin.

"Yup. Huh, I just hope I won't have to use wheelchair" said Haknyeon.

"Well, you're the one that want to keep the secret from them" said Chanhee.

"I know. I know. I really want to have fun too but I need to resist myself" said Haknyeon.

Sangyeon walk up to him and patted his shoulder.

"After everything is over, you can have all the fun you want, Haknyeon" said Sangyeon.

"Yeah. Let's go" said Haknyeon and went to sit on the wheelchair.

After a three-hour journey, they finally arrived at their destination, Jeju Island.

As soon as they arrived at Jeju Island, Sangyeon and Younghoon rented two cars to ensure that they could travel comfortably and conveniently. Once the car had been secured, the group made their way to the beach house, eager to relax and enjoy the scenic views that the island had to offer.

Sunwoo was seated in the back of the car, occupying himself with listening to music using the MP4 player that he had received from Giuk. It seemed that he had grown quite fond of the music that Giuk had composed, as he regularly listened to it repeatedly on the MP4 player. He had already listened to all the tracks available, and he appeared to have a fondness for playing the playlists over and over again, thoroughly enjoying the experience each time.

He also had went to see the busking many times to see Giuk's band make a street performed.

"You okay, Hyunjae? You can take a rest" said Younghoon, driving when he glance to Hyunjae.

Hyunjae had just returned from a length day at work, feeling significantly tired and weary. His body was still recovering from the exhaustion caused by the workday, and he didn't have a lot of energy left spend.

"It's fine. I can take a rest at the beach house later" said Hyunjae.

"There is still a long way to go before arrive at the beach house. You should rest first" said Younghoon.

"Just take a rest, hyung. You really need the sleep now" said Changmin as he saw his bag under his eyes.

"Okay... Wake me up when we arrive" said Hyunjae and closed his eyes.
