        Donghyuck took a gaze at the door as he heard an opening.It was Taeyong,his older brother,they both smiled at each other and heading for the younger.He sat on the edge of the bed where his younger brother was laying down.
      "How are you feeling?"The older asked with a soft smile which can calm every hearts.The younger responded by saying,"Feeling Alive(?)"bursting out into laughter but,nonetheless,the older focefully laughed too.He did not want to take his words rigidly and the younger deciphered,that his brother doesn't find it funny...it got out of his league.
        "Anyway"staring at Donghyuck while showing the softest smile he could pull off."What do you want to do?"
       "Did I misheard it?"Donghyuck thought to himself,eyes got widened as his brother asked him what he want to do.He never asked thst kind of questions to him before.All he ever did was ordering him,or telling him what to do and what not to eat,it's because ever since Donghyuck was born,he needed full medical check up all the time.Spending his dark past in a dark room,never had the opportunity to study nor making friends.He never got to enjoy his childhood like other kids,he cannot do anything he likes.Then,out of nowhere,his brother asked him what he would like to do.Is he getting better?Or....is his condition getting worse?
       "Hyung,are you serious?"paying full attention to what his brother is about to say.
       Assuring him with another smile,but,this time,wider,"Yes I am.You can do anything you want now and of course you can eat or drink anything too."holding his brother's hand,softly caressing it,"So?What do you want to try?"
       Cannot believe his brother's words,consenting him at this moment.He just went through the surgical past two days,but,he is given permission to try new things which he had never done before.Holding back his brothers hand as he smile in glee.
       He thought to himself,"I am getting better I see...this is the happiest day of my life!!"
       "There's so many things I want to try hyung!Like-eating subway burgers and drinking colas,going on trips and resting at a beach house!"exclaiming all the things which he wants to try,they are small and big things,yet,he really wants to try them out.
       Seeing his younger brother,dashing with happiness and excitement automatically made the older smile.He never saw him like this before,he was never gloomy,neither been this happy too.
      "Oh okay,make some proper plan and once you're done you can go out tomorrow,all right?"
       "Really?!!I mean,I can go out?Is this even real??"getting too gleeful,maybe it's too good to be true.Him?Going out?After he cheated death?
       "Yes!I will hyung."clenching his teeth as a smile,and recieving a rub on his hair by the older.
      "Good,I'm going to work and you should make plans."
      The younger nodded in response as the older got up from his seat and headed to the door,grabbing the door knob and twisting it,for the last time,he took a side glance at this brother who is excitedly writing down something on the paper with a pen in his hand,probably starting to plan.He shortly smiled,and leaving him.

        It's almost dawn at the moment,Taeyong entered his room as he has a lot of work that he should be doing,tasks and chores following him everytime.It's not surprising since he is both a surgeon and a mechanic engineer.Taking off his lab cloth and hanging them in one of the hangers inside his wardrobe.
         He sat down at the edge of his working table,a beautiful thing caught his attention,it was a picture in a frame:Taeyong,his mother,father and Donghyuck,all together,a memory of them going to a beach for the first time and as for Donghyuck,his first and last.He wasn't allowed to go out ftom his room anymore.Despite the sad continuing,it was a beautiful memory.They were having so much fun,a vintage quality time.Sadly,his parents passed away when Taeyong started his first year as a freshman in the hospital,it was because of an awful accident happening in the Charity Concert,his parents were busy leading the people away from the dangerous zone,they were busy getting the others to safety.And the fire got a lot more furious and.......
         .........It isn't fair........
       "Omma,I'm sorry I couldn't keep my promise,things are so unfair for us,especially for Donghyuck,at his condition..."sniffing hard as his tears kept on falling and hands are busy enough wiping them.But,they keep on falling like a waterfall,the tears weren't enough to show that his hopeless and his sorrows he is torturingly feeling right now.
       "Omma,appa,Donghyuck won't live more then 4 months....I'm sorry,there's nothing more I could do to extend his life anymore"hicupping between the words he said as he crumbled down on the floor,arms tightly hugging his knees as his tears fell nonstop!
       "I wish to give my life left for him and let him enjoy it.....why is life so unfair??....why?....."continuing with the whimpers and tears rolling down his boney cheeks.


         Why is life so unfair?
   




       On the other hand,Donghyuck,standing at the small and clamped veranda,is waiting for the first star to show.
And,there it is,among the purply dawn sight,a single and bright star was showing.
       Closing his eyes as he gets ready to make a wish now.
"Omma,I am getting better,Taeyong hyung told me that I could try anything I was wishing to do,I wish to enjoy the rest of the life that I have left.And,among all my plans,there's one beautiful thing that I wrote down,it was to experience a thing called love.I wanna know how beautiful it would be,would it be like you?"he let out a smile in the middle of his chanting,"Is love that beautiful that It made appa fell in love with you in first sight?If it is that beautiful,I wanna try it,make my wish come true,will you?My beautiful parents."
       Donghyuck opened his eyes and waved at the beautiful star,considering it as his mom and just beside the bright star is his dad.He never got to know them at a stiff moments,he was only 13 when his parents died,and he didn't have that sharp memory to recall what he had done with his parents.His disease is the problem so far.
But,he certainly is sure that his mother and father were the most awesome parents.They gave full time for their children as they grew up,they sacrificed all the things they need to do to give time for their lovely children.
For Donghyuck,only vivid memory of his parents remained.
       


             What will be in his life adventure???☀️
