"What are we going to talk about?"
Jinki stares at me. "Explain to me what happened."
I stare back at him. "Will you believe me if I tell you what happened?"
"Depends."
I bite my lower lip. I try to calm down myself. "What do you want to know?"
"Everything. Why did she able to get inside?"
"Because I opened the door for her. She knew that I am here. I had no choice."
"Did I not tell you not to open anyone?"
I am taken aback. "So it is my fault now?" I try to hold back my tears. "I did not wish to open the door for her because you guys told me, but I had no choice since she already knows that it is me."
"She said that she knew that it was you because you asked."
I look at him with an unbelieving face. "Come on Jinki. I asked because I thought one of the members was just trying to prank on me when I can't see the face on the screen?!"
I see him looking at me like he is up to something. I did not notice that I am already crying unless when I feel the teardrops.
"Fine! If you won't believe me, then I won't insist." I go back to the room. I see the boys getting startled when I open the door. "Thanks for holding Tae Woo." I get Tae Woo from Kibeom.
"Gwenchana?" They ask in chorus when they notice my upset look.
"I will oppadeul. As of now, I just need a fresh air to breathe." I bow at them while I am holding Tae Woo. "Excuse me."
I walk away. They walk after me. "Ya, Eun Jae-ya, just stay here arasseo? It's not good for you and Tae Woo to go out." Kibeom and the rest try stopping me.
"Please, I just—"
"Why are you guys stopping her? Let her go and do the things that she wants." Jinki said out of the blue. We all look at him while he is drinking a glass of water.
"Hyung!"
I feel a sudden madness when I hear it. "See? He allows me, so it's okay." I directly said to the others.
"Aniya... Don't listen to that old man Eun Jae. The doctor said you have to rest." Jonghyun said with puppy eyes begging.
"I am already fine. Nothing to worry about that." I turn around.
"You can go, but you have to leave Tae Woo behind." Jinki continues.
"And why?! I can do whatever I want with my son. I do not wish to argue with you anymore. Bye." I try to quickly walk away.
My tears tremble when I get inside a taxi. I feel like a big dagger is pierced through my heart again and again.
"Where are we going miss? Seems like you need to be in the hospital miss." The driver suggests. I look at myself in the front mirror. I see scratches all over my neck.
"Aniyo ahjussi. Just bring me to the cemetery."

My tears fall when I see my father's burial jar together with my mother's empty burial jar.
I smile bitterly. "Eomma, appa... Do you hear me now? Please allow me to stay here. I am really upset to him." I wail like a child to my parents. Reality only sinks in when I hear Tae Woo's loud cry.
"Omo... Sorry baby Tae Woo. Sorry if mommy gets mad to daddy."
I allow myself to stay quite longer. Somehow, being with my parents give me comfort.
"Baby Tae Woo, this is the place where your appa and I first met. This is the place where we fall in love to each other, but... Yeah, unfortunately, your appa fell out of love to me." I bring Tae Woo to the amusement park that I cherish a lot.
When I feel tired, I sit on a bench. I just realize that we've been out for a quite time already.
"Aigoo... I think it's time for us to go back Tae Woo." I look around, it's already dim. "Kaja."
I stop when I hear my phone ringing again. "Oppa." I said the moment I answer Jonghyun's call. "Mianhe for my behavior earlier. I was a bit upset."
"Gwenchana. We are already worried for both of you. You did not answer our calls earlier. Where are you now?"
"We'll be back there oppa. Please don't worry."
"Aigoo... Ottokhae? You should be back soon. It is forecasted that it will be raining heavily today."
"Jinjja? Ohh, that is why I can feel droplets of water now. Jamkaman oppa, I'll look for a place to shade here at the amusement. I'll call you later."
I decided not to take risk and walk towards outside the amusement park. Tae Woo and I might get wet if I pursue it since we don't have an umbrella and we already walked far away from the entrance. I don't want my son to get sick too.
I send a message to Jonghyun and the rest, except Jinki of course, that I will just wait for the rain to subside before I can go home.
A few minutes after, I receive a call from an unregistered number.
"Yeoboseyo?"
"Where exactly in the amusement park are you?"
My heart jumps when I hear Jinki's voice. I try to calm myself. "None of your business." I turn off his call and also my phone. I am still upset to him.

Jinki's P.O.V
He looks at his phone unbelievingly. Eun Jae turns off his call.
He is on his way to the amusement park since he overheard Jonghyun and Eun Jae's conversation earlier. Now, he's planning to fetch them.
Good thing it is raining, so he can hide his face properly using the umbrella although he is wearing a mask.
He roams around. After a long search, he finally sees her back. She's hugging their son, trying to give him warm.
"Park Eun Jae."
He can sense that she stiffens.
💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋
Eun Jae's P.O.V.
I stiffen when I hear his voice behind me.
"Ya... Let's go home." I can feel a hand holding my arm, making me turn around.
"Why—How did you know that we are here?" I flip his hand away.
"I heard from your convo with Jjong earlier that you are in the amusement. I know that you fancy this amusement park a lot Eun Jae that is why I am here." He holds my arm once more. "Please."
I look around and see people staring at us. "Arasseo."
We walk silently. He is holding the umbrella while his other hand is helping me cover Tae Woo. We are so silent on our way back to the dorm.
"Eun Jae!" The four rush towards us.
"Aigoo! We called you back, but it cannot be reached. We are glad you are fine!" Kibeom exclaims.
I bow to them. "Mianhe for my behavior earlier oppadeul."
"Gwenchana. We understand you." Minho pats my shoulder lightly.
"Hyung, how did you know where they are?" Taemin asks Jinki who is just silently listening in a corner.
"I overheard Jonghyun and her call earlier. I heard amusement, so I was thinking of that amusement park." Jinki shrugs his shoulders. "Do you want to rest now?" He looks at me.
"Ne." I have to be honest. It was really tiring to carry Tae Woo all day without putting him down. I look at the four. "Jeongmal mianhe oppadeul." I bow again.
"Aigoo, no need to worry okay? Ka... Rest now. Goodnight. Goodnight too our little angel." The four give Tae Woo a kiss on the cheek.
We silently enter the room. Jinki directly goes to the bathroom while I sway Tae Woo swiftly to make him go to sleep.
"Here..." I frown at Jinki when he hands me a box.
"What is that?"
"It's a first aid kit. Why don't you put Tae Woo first so that we can clean those scratches?"
I look at him surprisingly. "Are you sick?" While saying it, I put Tae Woo to his crib which Jinki bought.
"Aniyo. This is a way to ask sorry for being rude to you earlier." He answers with seriousness. He starts cleansing my scratches.
"You've been rude to me. Earlier is just one of those worse scenarios." I murmur under my breath.
I notice him stop cleansing. He opens his mouth, but closes after and then continues on what he is doing. "By the way, I already told my parents our situation. They wish to see Tae Woo."
I fall into a deep thinking. I like Jinki's parents, but I feel so awkward now because of what happened. The cancellation of the engagement, the separation and everything.
"Is it okay?"
I blink my eyes and sigh. "I don't think I have another option."
"Ne."
"Arasseo, but when?"
"Maybe tomorrow? I don't have a schedule for tomorrow."
I nod as a reply.
"Okay then. I'm done here." He stands and keeps the kit.
He lies down on the sofa like he always does.
I stare on his back since it is facing me. "Jinki..."
"Hmm...?" He did not bother to look at me.
"Hmm, thank you."
I decided to lie down too when I hear no response at all.
