Chapter Twenty
"This is where our love story started," Baekhyun pointed at the gigantic house in front of them. It was still the same house they used to live at, the only difference is that the people residing on it is Sehun's family, other than that, the house still looked the same from the outside. The feeling Baekhyun had for it was still there. It will always be his favorite place because that was where he found his true self, happiness, and reason to live again. And that is his husband, Park Chanyeol. "Well, our parents died because of a tragedy, you tried giving me a home before but I refused to accept. Maybe because I still can't stomach the fact that I'm already all by myself. That maybe the people whom I used to depend before were gone. It was hard accepting that I lost my parents at the very young age by that time."
Chanyeol nodded, his ears were listening to Baekhyun's words while his eyes were wandering around the huge structure. He can't believe that he is that rich to the point that the place where he's living before seemed like a mansion for the four (Park brothers, Kyungsoo, and Baekhyun) of them. "Why are we living in a different house now?"
Baekhyun bit his lips. "We both agreed to live in that house," he pointed at the gigantic house in front of Park mansion. The house that became their home the moment they become newly weds. The house that witnessed too many happenings in their lives as a family but now it's only a household that reminds Baekhyun of the sufferings he had recently. "But. . . But the moment we lost you and Eunji, I've decided to leave it there and buy a new and smaller houseㅡthat's where we're living right now. Our old household never failed to make me feel suffocated. I don't think I can still survive living there without you and Eunji. I'm sorry if I'm that weak, Chanyeol."
"It's fine," Chanyeol smiled in reassurance, he took a tight grip of Baekhyun's right hand and squeezed it. "Remember that you have me now, you can depend on me. You're not alone anymore."
Baekhyun nodded and gave Chanyeol a faint smile. "Continuing my story, it was never an easy relationship for the both of us. It may had been hard for me but I know it's harder in your part. You're torn between being a good brother to Sehun and a good boyfriend to me. But you made the impossible possible, Chanyeol. Look at us know, we may have you by our side with your lost memory but still, we won't go this far if it's not because of your courage and bravery. I hope, really. One day, you'll have your memory back because you're the foundation of our family. Not just ours but also, you're Sehun's pillar of strength."
Pressure never crossed his mind. After hearing what Baekhyun has said, it made something on him more eager to know and discover his true self. As soon as possible, Chanyeol wants to remember everything before the perpetrator attacks once again.

"Going to sleep now?" Kyungsoo asked when he saw Baekhyun walking out of the kitchen while holding a glass of warm milk. "You do know that fresh milk won't let you sleep faster, right?"
Nodding, Baekhyun walked his way towards the end of the stair, meeting the younger one who seemed who got his sleep disturbed. "I know and it's not for me for the record, Soo."
Appalled, Kyungsoo has shaken the growing question inside him and gave way to Baekhyun hoping that the vixen will lead onto the path towards the master's bedroom but Baekhyun made no further movements at all. "Baek?"
The brunet's face was void of any hints that can make Kyungsoo understand what's going on his mind but still gave in because he knows it's only Kyungsoo who can give him a better advice about what's bothering him eversince they (Chanyeol and him) went back from the old houses they used to live at. "I find it weird because when Chanyeol asked me to marry him, I didn't felt any wedding jitters at all but now that he asked me if he could sleep by my side, I'm feeling nervous."
Chuckling, Kyungsoo crinkled his nose. He misses this side of Baekhyun so much. The Baekhyun who will be problematized by simple things in the world and the Baekhyun who will looked innocently cute while muttering his simple worries about life. "Why? Nervous that you might mess up while you two make love later?" And with that, Baekhyun yanked Kyungsoo's arm making the latter give him a toothy grin. "Nevermind. Why were you so bothered about it?"
Shrugging, Baekhyun started stirring the warm liquid poured on the glass in his hands, eyes following how the said liquid move because of the movement of the stirrer. "I don't know. Maybe because I somehow forgot the feeling when Chanyeol's the last person I'll see before closing my eyes for a lengthy sleep over the night? I really don't understand what's happening with me these days. I mean, I'm supposed to be happy and all because my husband's back but how can I be when the thought of being cautious on how should I take everything slow always comes into my mind?"
Kyungsoo can't find the right words to say. To be honestly speaking, he woke up when Jisung bugged him by shaking his body simultaneously because Jongin's such a heavy sleeper. Jisung cannot wake his other dad with his gentle and little shakings so he resorted on doing it to Kyungsoo, who happened to be asleep for just an hour that time. "Just go with the flow, Baek. I know Chanyeol's doing his best to cope up with the things he's missing. Give him time and be at least patient. I'd rather have him here clueless about anything than having no physical sights of him at all."
Nodding, Baekhyun gave Kyungsoo a pat on his shoulders and mumbled a soft Thank you before resuming on walking on the staircase. Talking to Kyungsoo about some uncleared thoughts will always be the greatest decision Baekhyun has made. Albeit that he is older than him, Kyungsoo always give mind-blowing advices that everyone would love to hear when in times of confusion.
Upon reaching the mediant size master's bedroom, Baekhyun was greeted with Chanyeol backfacing him while tapping something on the brunet's iPad. "Hey, Yeol. . ."
Chanyeol turned back and gave Baekhyun a lopsided grin before sticking his eyes onto the gadget once again. "What's up? Why are you still awake?" Chanyeol can clearly remember that the time when he decided to take a bath, Baekhyun's already fast asleep on the other side of the bed.
Baekhyun moved and sat next to his husband, offering him the glass of warm milk he took from the kitchen. "I got you a milk. You always drink one glass of it before sleeping. I know. You're weird. Instead of getting livelier, consuming fresh milk before sleeping makes you sleepier, ape."
Chanyeol chuckled at his husband's attempt on insulting him. Taking the iPad away, instead of reaching for the glass containing the said milk, he motioned Baekhyun's hand towards the bedside table, leading his delicate and slender fingers to put the glass above it. He then held Baekhyun's hands with his while looking at him with too much admiration on his eyes. "Baek?"
"Hmm?" Baekhyun replied, completely getting lost in the horizon because of his husband's enticing stares.
"The world gets you by day," Baekhyun couldn't help but to chuckle because he knows his husband is yet to blurt another pick up and cheesy line once again. This has always been Chanyeol's own way of turning Baekhyun's day from bad to a good one. "And for now, it's my turn to have your attention."
Completely fazed by his husband's heartwarming words, Baekhyun just found himself nodding, taking away the iPad inside the drawer of his bedside table. "I miss that one, Yeol."
"I guess my mind can be an empty can of memories of you and everything but my heart will always be there to remind me that it's only beating for you, Baek."

Crossing his hands rightaway to his chest, Chanyeol leaned back to the wooden chair after tidying the side of the queen-sized bed he consumed last night. Watching the brunet with his mouth slightly parted open while snoring cutely was one of Chanyeol's favorite things when he still has his memory back then and now, he felt something on his chest tug the moment he saw that scenery.

Not long ago, Baekhyun stirred up and he was welcomed with his husband's crunched up face while eyes were intact on his iPad. Baekhyun made sure to make some noise that will break the giant's intense stare towards the gadget and it did. He earned his attention. "Good morning."
Chanyeol's face softened at the sight of his husband's messed up bed hair and clothings. Sighing, he placed back the iPad on the table, forgetting what he has red over the web and gave Baekhyun a quick peck on his cheeks. "Hey. How's your sleep?"
Moaning, Baekhyun stretched his hands on mid-air giving Chanyeol a sight of his milky thighs because the vixen last night asked if he can wear one of Chanyeol's shirt to sleep. Unbeknowst to the giant, Baekhyun always sleep with his clothings before. "Good, I think."
Chanyeol sat next to his husband, scooping him inside his arms. "Really?" Baekhyun nodded, resting his head on Chanyeol's chest, hearing his normal heart beats. "What's our schedule today?"
They've compromised with a plan that they will schedule an activity or a simple meeting everyday that will help Chanyeol somehow gain a part of his lost memory that will run for one week and they're on their second day today. Yesterday was the start and it turned emotional. Baekhyun wasn't surprised at all. Being emotional has been part of his life the moment he entered Park brothers' lives once again but nonetheless, he finds it worth having because they're the only family left (although not blood-related).
"How about you take the kids with you? I mean, you should familiarize yourself too with the kids not just with me," Baekhyun started drawing circles on his husband's chest which didn't failed to make the latter chuckle because it's tickling him. "I'm sure they'll love the idea of it. I miss you so much but Chanhee and Baekhee misses you more."
Nodding, Chanyeol's hands find its way to intertwine it with Baekhyun's. Perfectly filling the wholes in between his slender and woman-like fingers. "And then later at night, we'll talk."
"About what?"
"About anything under the sun. I want to remember everything and that includes every simple thing that surrounds us."
"Okay then."

Chanyeol has decided to take the kids out and when he asked where they wanted to go? They both simply answered the name of their school and it made something on Chanyeol's chest throb. Eventhough Baekhyun hasn't told him yet everything about the past, Chanyeol already did few researches about his life and it says that he lost his own flesh and blood inside the premises of his adoptive childrens' school.
Chanhee and Baekhee were both persistent on making their father bring them to Seoul Academy so Chanyeol was left with no choice but grant them.

Green grassy field was where Chanhee and Baekhee had taken over Chanyeol. They both left and said that they're going to meet some friends first so Chanyeol did the math alone by sitting on the wooden bench nearby. Roaming his eyes around, he felt how his head started throbbing and a glimpse of his lost memory flashed.
On the same spot where he was sitting right now was where he rushed himself back from the principal's office after hearing that they lost Eunji. He clearly can see his panicking state and Chanhee's comforting actions for his sister. The emptied stroller caught his eyes. There was a pink bottle with a diluted formula and few baby things that he supposed were owned by his biological daughter. A few minutes later, Baekhyun's crying face was now seen. He kept on hiccuping from one moment and another. He was hysterical and kept moving back and forth while saying things Chanyeol can't hear but he was sure that his husband was just blurting his worries out.
The last memory he saw after the throbbing pain was gone? It was him, running away from his husband and calling the police, reporting the incident happened that time. When he was already out of the school's premises, he received an unregistered mail and opened it. There he saw an unfamiliar guy with a bad-ass looking face, holding a baby girl who looked like him judging on how elfish her ears were.
It's the kidnapper about to take his daughter away from their country.
