MY BROTHER (NCT)
MEANING OF A TRUST

"Oh yes, how are you doing at school? Smooth right?" ask Chanyeol who again opened the topic of conversation between the two.

A question that even made Renjun so upset, to make him forced to turn to Chanyeol with a fiery look.

"Please stop asking me about my school, no matter what happens, it's not Om Chanyeol's business."

Chanyeol only maintained his smile, as if he was accustomed to the cool attitude of Rejun.

"But I think Papi's question is too much, I'm sorry Papi."

The one listening to that became guilty, it shouldn't be Chanyeol apologizing just for asking a simple question that was a little sensitive to Renjun without Chanyeol's knowledge.

Renjun also understood that Chanyeol was actually just trying to show his concern for Renjun, so Raj should be angry as before with the Papi.

Rejun lowered his head, "I should apologize to Om Chanyeol, I feel guilty for saying rude to Om."

Chanyeol stared as if in disbelief, he even pinched his own fingers when he listened to the words Sorry Runjun for the first time.

But Renjun did not care about the Chanyeol Response, he continued to talk continuously without raising his head who was still staring at the floor tiles of the room.

"I used the om method yesterday to make friends, so you don't have to worry about me anymore."

Chanyeol just laughs happily, any parent must be happy to hear the news that his son has made friends at his new school. It seemed that he also had a regretful feeling in the past that Wendy had also felt, although that feeling was not particularly highlighted by him.

"Good, Papi is proud of you." Chanyeol gave two proud thumbs to Renjun, until it made Renjun who was no longer down can only be stunned. To him it felt ridiculous to be praised by others like this.

"But no longer need to worry too much about you because now you want to be friends again," continued Chanyeol who patted the edge of the bed.

"May I have a lot, om?" ask Renjun then and there. 

"May dong, njun want to do a lot of what son?" asked Chanyeol who immediately turned all his attention to Renjun.

"why not be a bad stepfather?" renjun's question instantly silenced Chanyeol for a while, before he finally smiled while draping his hands together.

"But there's absolutely no reason to hate you, let alone the thought of being the evil stepfather."

"Why?"

"Because Papi really loves Renjun, you already Papi consider as his own son and if you can the Papi really want us to be close like Dad and son in general."  Chanyeol was still smiling, while giving a warm look to Renjun.

"But whenever Om won't be able to replace Papa's position in my life, will om give up acting as a father?" ask Renjun who seems to be challenging.

"But will never give up to soften your hard heart, besides Papi also promised himself will love you forever and become the figure of the Father you are proud of me."  Chanyeol's words just now, make Renjun touched and even remembered the family problems experienced by Mark , as well as how depressed Jaemin when he had both parents complete. Now, Renjun began to feel ashamed of himself who felt the world felt unfair just because the divorce of his parents divorced.

"Can I trust you, Om?" asked Renjun who was a little hesitant, but he tried to open his heart to give Chanyeol a chance.

"Yes, you can trust Papi."

In the photo, there is also the figure of Renjun's biological father and his brother who is none other than Winwin.

Renjub pointed to Winwin in the photo, "I'm actually in school with Winwin Hyung, but our relationship has deteriorated and until this moment I have no hope of improving it. "

Renjun glanced at Chanyeol, "I think returning to this city could meet again with Winwin Hyung, but the problem is that Hyung is different from the Winwin Hyung I know. In addition, I will not also be able to meet my biological Papa if until this moment I just do not know where Winwin Hyung lives."

"May Papa ask you a lot, so because Winwin so your face can be hurt like yesterday?"

Rejun immediately pulled the photo again, "I'd hate you if I complained to Mami."

"Or if need be I'll get out of this house, if Mami ever finds out about this!" A threat that comes out of Renjun's mouth that actually can't trust Chanyeol completely.

Chanyeol did not take the threat of Renjun, he just nodded in agreement while smiling while putting his palm on the shoulder of Renjun.

"You just calm down, Papi won't tell your mom."

Rejun was a little relieved, but he tried to get rid of Renjun's hand from him.

"So, what do you suggest?" he asked shamelessly, even though his actions just now were disrespectful. Although in fact, Renjun did not intend to be brash just that he was still hesitant to accept the presence of Chanyeol as a surrogate father for him.

"According to you, you can't just give up. Maybe you can just ask Winwin directly about his attitude that tries to stay away from you. Om sure you can definitely improve your brotherly relationship again, meanwhile om will try to find your papa and Hyung's house."

Renjun seemed happy to listen to him, without realizing he immediately embraced Chanyeol spontaneously like a proud child to his father.

"Thank you, Om!" he said enthusiastically, Chanyeol to not know anymore to say anything. For him, this is the second time he felt the arms of Renjun after previously he had held Renjun when critically beaten by his classmates during Junior High.

Now Chanyeol began to understand, if today his eldest son has grown up. Though previously he could still feel the tiny body of Renjun in his arms, but today his son really grew as healthy as he wanted.

"Ah, sorry ." Renjun immediately let go of the embrace.Kini, both his ears reddened from enduring the shame after behaving like a child in his view.

"If I go to sleep, I'm sleepy!" he said that he immediately dropped himself in bed with a stomach position.

"You'll have the bedroom door closed, Om," he screeched again, Chanyeol just said yes and acted away.

But before leaving, Renjun did not forget to say something that had been held in his mind.

"I trust you from today, so please don't break my trust again like old times. I'm still traumatized to trust people back, but this time I'm gonna trust you."  Renjun pulled his blanket with the position still face down, now he paused himself in the blanket.

"Thank you, Papi."

"Thank you again for trying to move forward, Papi also thanked you for reaching Papi's hand." Chanyeol immediately left after saying so and closed the door to Renjun's room.

Meanwhile Renjun began to close his eyes with a pile of tears and the burden of trauma that still had not faded.
