🔫Chapter Thirty-Three🔫

*Yoonjeo POV*

My mouth dropped open in shock. I couldn't believe what I was seeing right now.

"It's cute isn't it?" Rose asks while holding up the phone to me.

My mind went blank. There on the screen, was me, in the arms of a guy I've only seen once from a distance, kissing his neck...and calling him Oppa...

"Delete it." I give Rose a glare and cross my arms.

"No." She says and smiles mischievously.

"Rose. Delete. It." My voice drops and I stare at her angrily.

"Hmm....um...nope!" She grabs the phone in her hands and runs away.

I immediately shoot up chasing after her, I follow her as fast as I can all over the large apartment unfortunately bumping into everything as she skillfully makes her way through it since she already knows the layout.

"Got you!!" I finally trap her in the corner of the kitchen.

"Give it me." I start moving closer to her.

"Sistar, yes." She laughs a little and I just get more angry.

"Dongsaeng, be a good girl and give me the phone or else you wouldn't want me to punish you now would you?" I smirk as I walk even closer and stare into her large eyes.

"Looks like you'll just have to punish me." She shifts at the counter and tries to run out from the side of me but I grab her by her shirt and pull her back.

"You asked for it." I grab her neck and put her into a headlock and apply pressure to it.

"U..Unnie you wouldn't kill your dongsaeng over a little video like that would you?" She says with a hoarse voice as I strangle her.

We're both on the floor by now with me choking her from the back.

"I don't know, maybe cause that thing can ruin my reputation!" I squeeze tighter.

"O...oh...you're talking about your Oppa kink--"

"Shut up you dongsaeng!!" I start choking her even more and she kicks her arms and legs around trying to get out.

"if you don't delete it right now--"

"Package!!"

We both freeze at the voice. I loosen my arms and listen. Someone placed a box at the door and walked off.

"Go get it." I say as I let go of her and sit on the floor with my arms crossed.

"Why do I have to get it?" She pouts her lips at me.

"Because you're younger. Orders only go down hill Rose, never forget that." I stand up and raise my eyebrows at her questioningly.

"Fine." She gets up and storms off to the door.

I walk around the kitchen and laugh a little. I can't believe she recorded me calling someone Oppa, like she knows I hate being teased about that.

I gently massage my arms as I hear her closing the door. They are still sore from what Jaebum did but Jin did a good job of stitching them up. Now I just need to be patient and wait for them to heal.

"Unnie, it's for you." She calls out as she walks back into the room holding a small brown packaged box.

"Who's it from?" I ask as I walk over to her and take it from her hands examining it.

"It doesn't say, it's just your name in some fine ass handwriting." She laughs and walks to the living room.

"Did you see the guy that brought it?" I grab a scissors and follow her sitting down on the floor and cutting it open.

"Yeah, but he had a hoodie on, so I didn't get to see his face." She flops down onto the carpet and looks at the package as I slowly open it.

There's so many layers it's taking quite a lot of effort to get whatever it is out but when I do my heart nearly stops.

A small picture, of a family falls into my hand as I stare at it.

A couple holding a baby, with a little boy standing next to them.

But what shocked me is that the baby looks almost identical to me when I was a baby. The ladies from the orphanage would show me pictures all the time as I grew up so I remembered.

The man in the picture also looks very familiar. I feel like I've seen him from somewhere.

There's a letter as well amidst all the wrapping and I pick it up with shaky hands.

"Unnie are you okay?" Rose looks at me with concern as she takes the photo and examines it.

I gulp and breath in deeply as I slowly open the envelope.

"Is this...is this you Unnie?" She turns the photo and points to the baby.

"I...I don't know." I manage to get the words out as I open the envelope and take the delicate paper out. I notice the delicate handwriting matches the writing on the box.

I start reading it slowly as Rose watches with worry.

Oh Yoonjeo,

I know this is possibly the worst time for you to receive this but I wasn't man enough to do it myself, my name is Im Juyoung, and I am your father.

I nearly drop the letter as tears come to my eyes and my throat turns dry.

Now I recognise him, Im Juyoung, the man on television that was assassinated...he's my father..and he's dead now...

I force myself to look back at the letter as my fingers start trembling.

I realise I am such a coward for not telling you before, but you have to understand why I couldn't. I was caught up in a gang war, and at that time my wife, your mother was pregnant and we had a son, your brother, Im Jaebum...

I drop the letter and stand up as tears come flooding to my eyes.

"Unnie? What is it?" Rose grabs the letter and stands up placing a hand on my shoulder.

I flinch at the contact and step back, I cover my mouth as the tears keep coming. My head feels like it's hammering out of control.

Im Jaebum is my brother.

The cruel man that tortured me so much, is my family.

"No.." I run to the bathroom and lock myself in it.

I furiously look around for something, I don't even know what. My mind is racing, and finally I let out the cries I was holding back. I fall on the floor and sob loudly.

"Unnie!! Tell me what's wrong!?" Rose knocks on the door but I just push myself up against the counter and continue crying.

Im Jaebum, the man that tied me up and abused me, the man that took a knife and cut my arms so viciously. That same man is my brother.

And possibly the only family I have left now that my father is dead.

"Unnie.." I hear Rose slide to the ground on the other side of the door as she breathes slowly.

I move over so I'm next her but on the other side.

"There's more to the letter." She almost whispers and I let another painful sob.

"I..I don't want to know.." I say the words but in reality I am dying to know. For the first time in my life I can find something out about my real family.

Why I was abandoned as a baby.

Why I was left alone in this world for so long...

"Unnie, I know that you want to know more." Rose says through the door and I let another sob at how well she knows me.

I turn and reach up unlocking the door and letting it open slightly.

Her delicate fingers come through the gap as she pushes it more and looks at me with a few tears in her eyes.

I burst out sobbing as she comes inside hugs me tightly.

"It's okay Unnie, I'm here, you're not alone and never will be." She pats me on my back and I hold her tightly.

I don't know where I would be without this amazing girl.

"Come here Unnie." Rose shuffles over so her back is facing the counter and she opens her arms to me.

I let out a small breath of relief as I turn and lie back against her as she hugs me from the back. I snuggle into her as we sit there in silence for awhile.

"Do you want me to read it?" She says quietly after a while.

"Please." Is all I manage to say as I try to push the clawing pain out of my heart but it just gets worse.

She picks up the letter in front of me and I close my eyes as she starts to read it out.

"Three years after we had JB, you came into our lives, and we loved you so much, but the gang war was no better and I knew that if I raised a beautiful little girl like you, in an environment like that you would just get hurt. So even though it nearly killed your mother and I, we had to leave you in front of the orphanage, I didn't have the money at the time to get you better surroundings but after I got more financially stable, I arranged secretly on the sidelines for your foster parents to meet you and give you a better life. If you're reading this then I must be dead, I was not man enough to tell you, so I ordered my men that if I ever die, they would get you this package, so you can know that you're not alone in this world, and that you had a family that loved you very much. My sweet little girl Yoonjeo, I love you with all my heart and please don't hate me. All I ever wanted was you to be happy, I'm sorry I did such a terrible job of it.

-Im Juyoung."

The small bathroom is completely silent. You almost can't even hear our breathing. Tears quietly make their way down me and Rose's cheeks as the words of the letter soak in.

"Unnie." Rose's beautiful voice that was just reading probably the most hurtful letter in my life cuts through the painful silence.

"Hmm." I answer back, I'm so overcome with emotion that it's made me almost frozen in a place where I can't make sense of anything. I just stare at the wall as Rose hugs me to her tighter.

"Taehyung and Jungkook, and the rest of the guys are...they're going to...." I move slightly when I hear her hesitation.

"What?" I ask while turning my head slightly to look at her.

"They're...going to k...kill Jaebum."
