Without Them, Is It Alrig (1/1)

The next morning, you climbed out of bed and yawned. You looked outside and grunted. Ughh, it was obvious a storm was going to come up later that afternoon. Since today was Saturday, you were climbing back into bed to sleep a little bit more when the doorbell rang. *Who could that be now? On a Saturday? This early?*Again, you climbed out of bed when you heard your mom shout to open the door from the other room. As you peered through the little see-through hole of the door, you noticed it was the old lady from the ice-cream stall who asked you if Zelo, and Daehyun were your boyfriends.You slightly flustered at the thought but brushed it away when she smiled and asked if she could come in.*It wouldn't harm if I let an old woman come in would it?* you asked yourself as you gestured her to come inside."May I ask to see the two boys?" she said and smiled brightly as her eyes crinkled at the ends. It reminded you of Daehyun when he smiled. You smiled back and nodded as you headed upstairs to fetch the two sleeping boys.You knocked on their door two times, then went in without permission. After all, they were just your adoptive brothers. It wouldn't hurt. Well, that was an understatement. You walked in and found them, draped over eachother, with no shirts on. *OMO!* you screamed inside your head and closed the door with a slam.That must've woke up Zelo (who was obviously a light sleeper), so in a moments notice, he re-opened the door. "Oh...~~~~~? What was it?" he asked while rubbing his tired eyes, half in LaLa Land, and half in reality."Umm... there is this woman downstairs who wants to see you both," you said, for some reason, not tearing your eyes off of Zelo's lean abs."Oh, okay," was all he simply said and closed the door. You caught the door just in time before he slammed it on your fingers and never came back out.You entered their room and clapped your hands. "Which means you both will have to dress up and come downstairs right now. Do I really have to force-dress you both like children?" you asked and chuckled playfully.Surprisingly, Daehyun woke up and scratched the back of his head, saying, "Yes."You flustered and turned around. "Of course not. You both d-do know how to d-dress up yourselves already!" you said and sighed while face-palming yourself. *Why am I all flustered up? They're my adoptive brothers!* you said to yourself again and turned around to face them."If I have to force-dress you both, then I will," you said and walked towards their closet, picking individual clothes for both of them.You grabbed Daehyun by the arm and managed to lift him (him and his heavy self) off the bed. He obeyingly slipped his arms through the shirt holes with his eyes still closed. You giggled at his childishness.Zelo, however, was dressing himself up, which was a relief. You wouldn't want to dress him up too.Daehyun finally opened his eyes after you dressed him up and walked down the stairs sleepily, every step with a loud thud since he was sloppily walking.You sighed and grabbed his arm to help him walk. The woman stood up from the couch she was sitting on when she saw the two boys walking towards her."Jun-Hong, Dae-hyun!!" the woman said as she hugged them both.They both raised their hands up like they were getting arrested from the surprise. "Umm... ahjumma.... Do we know you?" Zelo said and tilted his head."I don't think so..." Daehyun said as he faced his younger brother."Well, I din't think you both know me, but I know you both clearly," the old woman said with a raspy voice.Well, not to be very offensive, but you could tell she didn't have much time left. "Geugeos-eun halmeoni ibnida!! (It's grandma!)" she said and patted both the boys head. They both looked at eachother, obviously surprised. "Halmeoni?? I thought she already died," Zelo said, disrespectfully."AIGOO!" the old woman shouted in surprise while slapping Zelo at the back of the head. He sucked in air through clenched teeth and slightly smiled.Daehyun tilted his head and looked like he was in deep, deep thoughts. "Halmeoni? We never had one. Remember when dad told us that his mom abandoned him?" Daehyun said to Zelo, as Zelo took in the information, and nodded, remembering."OH NEH!! He did tell us that! Now who are you really?" Zelo asked while turning back to the old woman."Well, it was because your dad was mad at me at the time and he probably just made up a story. Well, it's time to go home now because, well, you do know So-Ra is waiting for you back at home right?" the old woman said to Daehyun."So-ra...??" he said, the words foreign to his mouth. You just stood their, taking everything in even if it was too much to take in at the same time. "Their grandmother has found them now..... It should be a happy moment... So, why am I....?" you murmured to yourself as you felt warm liquid slide down your cheek."Omo..." you said as you wiped them hurriedly and walked up the stairs, as inaudible as you can, so you wouldn't disturb the reuniting family.Daehyun noticed though and grabbed your wrist in the middle of the stairs. Zelo was still talking to the old lady so they both were still sidetracked from the embarrassing situation. You didn't dare look back at Daehyun."_____-ah?" he said, his voice sounding like a lullaby to your ears. "We'll be leaving tomorrow..... Besides.... I have had an arranged marriage when I was younger. I.... didn't remember that until now...." he said and sighed. You couldn't help keep the tears back anymore, and suddenly, they just fell continously.You made no sound however, just some almost inaudible whimpers once in awhile. Daehyun sighed and tugged on your arm.Your arm reacted to his tug and you fell back into his arms. The worst part, crying.He hugged you, and just held you. You, crying. You, whimpering. You, twitching with every gasp that came out of your mouth. Yes, pathetic you...Suddenly, lightning was heard, and rain poured down. The storm had come.Hello everyone~!!This story is getting sad ;-;I NEED TO LIGHTEN UP THE MOOD ;-;I'm sorry if this chappie is too sad ;-;I SHALL UPDATE SOON WITH SOME BETTER NEWS (I hope)!!!Bye for now~!
