"I-I really like your name. It's pretty"

I complemented her nervously.

"Thanks~. It's Renjun right?"

"Y-Yeah, Huang Renjun"

Wow...

Her voice is so beautiful...

I've never met a girl with a voice so soothing...

"Why do you always stutter when you talk to me?"

She suddenly asked.

"W-What do you mean?"

"Like that. When you talk to your friends, you talk so confidently, but with me, you turn somewhat timid?"

"Oh... I'm sorry. I'm just not used to being around females. I've been around the others all my life. Oh, and they aren't really my friends per say. They're my brothers~"

"Really?? But... Then where are your parents???"

"...I think it would be better if my hyung Taeyong explains that. I'm still trying to completely accept what happened to them..."

"Oh. Let's go to him then"

I guess she really wants to know.

She at least has the right to know, so I agreed to it.

-

I knocked on the door, and Jungwoo answered.

"Why hello you two~"

"I smell Renjun¡!"

Lucas exclaimed, peeping over his shoulder.

"Why are you like this Yukhei..."

"What brings you two lovebirds here~?"

"W-We came to see Taeyong-hyung..., and we're not a couple..."

"Not yet~"

He winked.

"Lucas... Leave the poor children alone..."

Taeyong finally interfered, making Lucas walk away giggling.

"Anyway..., what brings you two here?"

"So..., this is Suko. She wants to know what happened to my parents"

"...Come on in"

1 Hour Later
In Renjun's Room

-

"That was a lot to process..."

She sighed as we laid in my bed together.

"I can't believe you're really half-angel and half-demon..."

"I honestly can't believe it either. But I do believe that they really loved me enough to sacrifice their own lives for me to be born"

"I believe it too. I'd say it was worth it too~"

"How do you mean?"

"I mean, Taeyong-oppa took you in after you were born, and raised you with your brothers, even if they weren't your biological family. And even though he knew you'd be a little different from the others, he didn't let that affect his decision. And besides, if you weren't born, I probably would've still been a prisoner to the Dragoons, or maybe even dead... But thanks to you and your family, I'm free and alive~"

She cuddled up next to me, catching me off guard.

"Maybe...,it was fate for us to meet. Either way, I'm glad I met you. I don't know how I'll ever be able to repay you~"
