After dinner, Onew and I go back to Onew's room.

"Are you and Minho close?" I ask.

"Yeah. He's the only cousin my age and a guy," Onew says.

"Oh I see," I say.

"What about you? Do you have any cousins your close to?" Onew asks.

"No. I was never really close to any of my family," I say.

"Why?" Onew asks, concern and worry evident in his voice.

"Well my family blames me for my mother's death," I say.

"What happened?" Onew asks.

"Well when I was three, I was sitting against a tree watching the clouds. I wasn't really paying attention, kinda lost in my own world, when I sat a car heading towards me and I froze. My mom pushed me out of the way before the car crashed but before she could get out of the way the car crashed into her," I explain. "My family says I should've died instead of her."

"I'm so sorry Key," Onew says and hugs me tightly.

I hug him back, happy to have someone being so nice to me. It's nice to feel someone's gentle touch. It's nice to know that Onew will always be there for me.
