MY BROTHER (NCT)
MERCILESS

"You're right, Hyung. I'm really sorry, I'm sorry for making you believe all my promises." Renjun did not intend to turn his body, he was still curled up in his sleep while turning his back to Winwin.

"You mean?" winwin asked confused, at first glance he did not feel sure about Renjun's words that sounded strange. Though also usually he can see that his sister is a stubborn person and does not want to budge at all.

"I'm tired, Hyung. And the longer I thought hard, the more I just found a thousand comas that never had the right point to be an answer to my question. I really doubt if you can answer that, Hyung. You know that all this time I always felt alone, I was like a freak standing in the rain without wearing an umbrella when obviously I was holding an umbrella at that time, I've felt that way all along." The steady crying quietly, his soft and weak voice made Winwin stunned for a moment. He believes that at this time the adkknha is watching is not clear, only he is completely unable to grasp the meaning of the words of Renjun other than to feel the pain of each verse of his sentence.

"So, why don't you just try asking your doubts about me?" ask Winwin.

"You won't listen to my doubts until the end of the sentence, so it's better I don't tell you than you're going berserk not obviously just because of me." Renjun smiled in his tears, then he pulled out his blanket and covered his entire body.

"I want to be alone now! You can just get out of here, Hyung." Renjun drove Winwin away.

Winwin who got a rejection openly can only smile at this time, then he rose from his chair while intending to stroke the hair of the sister who immediately undone.

"Alright, anyways I also want to buy food at the minimarket and fill my stomach that is rumbling," he said deliberately making excuses.

And without getting any answer from Renjun, he immediately left the room and let the returned Runjun sob in his blanket.

There was nothing else that Winwin could feel but a deep feeling of disappointment, never once thought let alone to be described by him to be able to feel the feeling. His steps felt extremely heavy, as if there was a patter of disappointment encircling his ankle. Winwin was eager to shout at this moment and let any kind of swearing slip from his lips if only that action did not bother others.

With limp hands, eyes that can not focus and lips that stop together. Winwin opened the door of the House that was not locked, not once he realized the existence of his father's car that had been parked there and without further ado he walked towards the Kitchen with the intention to fill the void in his throat.

Hyunwoo who was waiting for Winwin's return from the beginning could only grumble in his chair after ransacking the entire contents of the Kitchen which caused several pots and broken dishes to scatter on the floor.

But Winwin did not care about the presence of the father, he was still busy sipping every drop of cold water from the bottle and let the water droplets flood his entire throat.

"Where have you been? Did you accompany her home?" hyunwoo asked, but none of Winwin's answers clearly upset Hyunwoo.

"You shouldn't still be kind to him, you'll know that he's the cause of our family's destruction. I'm still sick of remembering that face, that useless kid's face that usually pretends to be sick and makes everyone hard!" hyunwoo complains who still continues to nag.

Then he slammed the glass on the floor again, "If the child had not been born, this household would not have been a mess, maybe we can live happily all three and I don't have to vent all my frustrations with you. And you should hate that kid, too, you want to apparently let him live a good life and let you pity him."

Hyunwoo still continued to grumble to blame Runjun, making the fire axis of Winwin's anger even more burning.

Winwin immediately slammed the refrigerator door, then stared in anger at Hyunwoo who immediately stood up in shock.

Surprisingly Winwin just kept quiet, he seemed unable to budge and do much when faced with the Father. And even he was calm like ignoring Hyunwoo's previous rude treatment which obviously made Hyunwoo even more apathetic because he felt unappreciated.

"You've always ignored me, are you starting to look like your mother now? You want to leave your father?" yang Hyunwoo who started to walk over.

Winwin glanced at Hyunwoo, then he let out a long sigh.

"You should stop blaming other people for what happened to you, Pa." Winwin began to feel sick of Hyunwoo's attitude, just as Hyunwoo was getting angry at the answer he got from Winwin.

He immediately slapped and pushed Winwin's head into the refrigerator until it made a loud noise, obviously Winwin felt surprised and seemed carried away by emotions.

"You're completely unconscious, Pa? You're the real cause of them leaving the house, stop blaming Renjun! Runn only a child who did not know anything at that time, you should be grateful that he could fight from the disease that gnawed him and instead you just want to cheat and scapegoat Renjun!" winwin snapped in one long breath.

"So talk! What do you think is my reason for cheating? You think it's good to be ignored by your own wife for that sick child."

"That's your household's risk, but obviously if you hadn't cheated, they wouldn't have left this house. And Renjun or I are victims of the selfishness of you two, why the hell do you have to bother having children if in fact you can only hurt our hearts?" snapped Winwin.

Hyunwoo who was getting up, could no longer bear his patience and punched Winwin's face many times.

But there was not even a reply given by Winwin, he did indeed hold his hands together but not the slightest bit of the hand moved upwards other than just some great tremors from both hands.

It seems like the violence she experienced since childhood has become a great trauma that still imprint in her life, she seemed to be indoctrinated to always be afraid when tortured by Hyunwoo and fear was ingrained in the bottom of her heart. Even if he wanted to, he could have put up a fight or run away from there right then and there.

While Winwin was still stunned in his fear and allowed his body to be used as a cushion for his father's fist, Hyunwoo continued to beat Winwin while yelling nemaki at the child.

"Basic child is useless! You should be thanking me for taking you in, not being disrespectful to me!" snapped Hyunwoo who had now managed to drop Winwin on the floor and started kicking his son's stomach until coughing.

Fortunately, at the same time, Winwin's phone rang and made Hyunwoo stop his violent actions on Winwin.

"Who is that?" hyunwoo asked as he rubbed his head.

"My teacher, you know that Papa can get convicted if he gets caught abusing me!" threaten Winwin while still lying down.

"Get up and pick up the phone, be careful if you complain!"

"I know," said Winwin who immediately complied while holding his painful stomach.
