"It’s the will of the patient," Hyun-woo said. "If the patient feels like they have nothing to live for, they could simply give up on living, and though many fall into a coma for a long ti, leading to being in a vegetative state, others die from there."
"So, you’re saying the reason Jo-Pil isn’t waking up might be because he doesn’t want to?" Ki-hoon asked, and I could feel the irritation in his tone.
Oh no, don’t misunderstand. It’s not that I don’t want to wake up. I’m just not here yet.
I an, I never wanted to co back, which is exactly the sa thing Hyun-woo said. I assure you my soul didn’t leave my body out of my own volition.
"That’s correct,"
"And why would Hyung do that?" Min-Cheol asked, folding his arms. "Why would Hyung not want to wake up? We never treated him badly. We did everything good and nice for him. He eats a lot and... And..." His words began to falter as he could not think of anything else he had done for , but then he ca up with one and yelled out, "And we even gave him lots of money because he said he likes money a lot."
I feel like that last statent got Hyun-woo, the real money lover, angry because they would certainly not do the sa for him even though he was working his ass off.
He was so shaless. I was sure the money they paid him was way more than what they paid , but nothing ever seems enough for him.
But... He let it go and sighed, relieving his headache.
"Did Hwang Jo-Pil ever tell you that he was happy to be here?" Hyun-woo asked.
"Of course," They both answered in unison with their chest out in full confidence.
Okay, I did tell them that I was happy they bought out of my debts and a life of running, but to be honest, I wasn’t fully happy.
The joy I got was the fact that I had no one bothering for sex, I could eat as much as I wanted, and even read books for as long as I wanted.
I could live comfortably under their roof and never work. That was my true joy.
Though their handso faces were also a sight for sore eyes, and my heart thumped every now and then, ahem, I stand my ground on what gives joy.
Hyun-woo didn’t know what to say. If they were that confident that I was happy, then he didn’t have a reason as to why I would remain unconscious even when everything was fine with .
"Is he really not dissatisfied with anything?" He asked in a lower tone, and Ki-hoon stepped up.
"If Jo-Pil was ever dissatisfied with anything, we would’ve done all that we could to take it away and make him satisfied. His smile and satisfaction," he gazed at , and I felt like he was staring right into my soul as his lips curled up gently. "...ans the world."
My heart thumped.
Wait, was that supposed to happen? I was just replaying the scenes, yet it felt like he was talking directly to and gazing at with those affectionate eyes of his.
Was Ki-hoon already at a 90% success rate? It wouldn’t be surprising.
After this accident, they would understand how much they treasured and truly valued .
"Let’s leave Hyung to rest for now," Min-Cheol said. "He will wake up. I believe he will, so I will keep waiting for him."
Huh? He’ll wait? Where?
Don’t tell he plans to move on?
"I’ll also wait," K-hoon said.
Wait, no. I hope it’s not what I’m thinking. I hope they’re not moving in.
If they do, then my life will be a disaster. My peace... I could already see it flying through the window. Sob.
After both of them left, Hyun-woo turned to , stared for a while, and then said,
"I wonder if you got what you wanted,"
What? What was that?
He walked away without saying anything, and it made wonder what sort of riddle that was.
After he left, I decided not to think of it. This was just a mory anyway, and I figured I shouldn’t take anything this man says to heart; if not, I would just be shortening my lifespan.
"Hyung, Hyung," Min-Cheol ca into the room, and I don’t know if it was right away or if it was another day because the mories were playing very closely together. "Do you know, on that day I heard the news, I went to buy you a few books since you said you liked books a lot?" He sat next to .
What? He went to do that?
"I figured the library at the annex must have a lot of old books, so I searched for the latest ones, but I couldn’t even take them ho that day cause I heard you had been in an accident,"
I didn’t think he would do that. He did ask if I loved books, but I didn’t think he would try to buy books.
That was so thoughtful of him.
It was just like when Ki-hoon was told that I was craving instant Ramyeon, he imdiately got a fridge full of them and bought its separate fridge as well.
They would rush to get whatever I wanted at the snap of a finger. Knowing this... I asked myself... Why did I hate the idea of coming back so much?
The Alphas were... Very, very good to .
Just thinking about got teary-eyed.
"I went back to the book shop today," Min-Cheol said, and I could feel him flipping the pages of a book. "I was in luck because there was a fresh release of novels from a famous author. I don’t know who he is, but everyone at the bookstore was talking about him, and I was ignored, haha," he laughed.
I couldn’t believe it, though. There was no way anyone would be able to ignore Min-Cheol. Not only is he a powerful Alpha, but he is incredibly handso with a baby face.
No one in their right mind, especially book lovers, would see this face and ignore him.
He was a walking main character, after all.
