war pov

"i've only been in korea for a week," he said to me.

"huhuhuhuhu, why do you have to leave?" i said, crying.

"because dad still sent me there, love, i'm sorry."

"you said your sons and i are your priority," i said and hugged him tightly.

"we can facetime, love. then i promise on my next business trip, i'll take you with me," he said.

"but, 1 week, it is so long," i said.

"it's short, even if i can't be far from you because my dad is still annoying me. let's just facetime after my meetings, na na," he said. i understand, because i can't afford not to see him for a week—touching, embracing. he is still the one i always want to see.

"yes," i said, crying, and even more poked my face on his chest.

"sorry na, love," he said, and i nodded to him. he kissed my forehead.

"don't cry, love. it'll be harder for me to leave if you do," he said again. i really don't want him to leave in case daddy comes angry with him.

"i will not cry anymore," i said.

"i will talk to daou and offroad, bever and tonliew, now to sleep in this house, so you can have someone with them and also someone can take care of teerak and phufah, so that i don't have to worry too much," he said, and i nodded to him. i strictly he still hugged me, but i was still sobbing, even though no tears fell from my eyes.

"mommy!" teerak shouted.

"why, baby?" i said.

"uncle offroad was talking to you earlier," he said.

"ohhh, sorry, what is that offroad?" i said.

"take a break, and i will take care of teerak and phufah," offroad said.

"is it okay with you?" i said.

"yes, it's okay," offroad said, and i nodded to him. i kissed teerak and phufah's foreheads before leaving, saying goodbye to them.

i went upstairs, and when i got to the room, i went to bed immediately.

i miss you so much. missing you so much. tears suddenly flowed. he can't call now because he has too many meetings.

it's been 2 days since he was here.

daou pov

someone suddenly texted me.

yin: daou! can i call and then give it to war? because i've been calling before, but he doesn't answer.

daou: all right.

he called me. before i could answer.

"love, come with me to war's room," i said to mark.

"okay, love, war still hasn't eaten," he said, and i answered yin's call.

"bever and i'll go to war's room," i said to the phone.

"thank you," he said. when we arrived in front of their door, we knocked.

"war!" bever shouted. when i held the doorknob, the door opened, so i opened it. i didn't see war. he wasn't in their bed.

"why is there no war?" bever said.

"wait, i will find him in the restroom," i said.

"oi, what's going on, gun?" yin asked.

"wait, bro, war is not in your bed," i would have spoken.
