DAHYUN'S POV

Earlier...

"I really didn't mean for what is happening right now," Sowon kept on apologizing as she drives me to dad's old mansion. I stared outside the windows and watched the strangers deal with their busy lives. "I mean, yeah, Jimin impregnated Mina, but that was before--"

"--I felt betrayed." I told her and she said no more. "I don't know what my relation is to Mina anymore. How should I treat her? She's the wife of my brother and she's got a child with my husband." I don't know what to do now. For a moment, my positivity about things ran out. I can't think straight anymore. This is a big betrayal and the fact that Mina kept it as a secret is worse. Why didn't she tell it to me or to my brother first, before I marry Jimin?

"Yeah, we both know that," she said. "But Mina aborted the baby." My eyebrows crossed hard and so I looked at her right away. Mina aborted the baby? That's...murder. "S-She was lost. I was with her when we went to an abortion clinic."

"But abortion in Korea is banned." I reasoned out. I can't believe that Mina just killed her baby.

Sowon nodded, "Yeah, so we flew to somewhere where abortion is allowed." I looked away and stared at somewhere. If Mina aborted the baby here, she would've been imprisoned, but Jimin? I don't know how would he react upon hearing this. It's his past lover who killed their supposed-to-be-child. He would surely be hurt because it's his baby. They made him with love and if that happened and I found out, I could've just stopped letting myself in to his heart.

"Mina is going to be punished when her parents find out about it." Sowon continues to drive until we reached dad's mansion. "But instead of her, her innocent baby got the punishment. I hope he forgives her mom." I tried thinking hard what could have happened if she told the truth to Jimin right away before I marry him. Maybe they have a good family right now. I'm out of the picture, of course. Maybe I married Eunwoo instead of Jimin, even if it's solely for business.

"She didn't tell you that she's got a child with Jimin?" I saw how Jin oppa's face changed in an instant. His hopeful and sparkly eyes faded. I bet he feels betrayed now. "But don't worry." I looked away and sighed. "She aborted it. Your wife's a murderer." I don't know what's happening with me anymore. I feel so miserable that I am giving it to the others as well. "Sad, but true." Jin oppa can't say anything anymore. I think he's in deep thoughts. He's just swallowing everything that I just said.

"H-How did you know?" I notice him sniffing. He's crying already just by the fact that his wife actually had a first baby with his sister's husband. "W-Who told you?"

"I met someone..." I paused. "...she's a friend of Mina's and she helped her abort the baby."

"But abortion in Korea is illegal. How can they possibly--"

"They flew out." I told him. Mina had done every single thing to prevent the baby from developing inside her. "She's such a great pretender."

"Don't call her that. She's still your in-law. She's still my wife." His tone became deeper when I said those rude words. I guess he stills consider her his wife even though a lot of crap already happened. "Respect her."

"She almost had a baby with my husband, oppa. How can I freaking calm down?" I asked him. He didn't retort or anything else. Instead, he silently cried. It melted my heart, yes, because it's my brother who is crying. I don't want to put hatred inside my heart just because Mina didn't tell anyone about this matter. We have the right to know this because we're her family. She could've told us about this when she agreed to marry Jin oppa. "I'm sorry," I said and held my head low because of shame. "It's just so stressing. It's us who are getting hurt because of all the crap that we should've have known before."

Jin oppa sniffed and looked away to wipe his diamond tears. "H-How will you tell Jimin?"

I don't know, to be honest. I don't know how will I tell Jimin about his aborted baby. I don't know how will he react. I don't know if I can tell him either. I'm just so all over the place right now. I don't know if this will provoke him more to take drugs, but it will surely devastate him. Goodness, it's his baby who was killed by his ex.

"I-I'll talk to Mina later." He even cracked a smile which hurted my heart. I said a lot of terrible things earlier and he had the audacity to curve his lips upward. Where else will I find a brother like him? "Let's get cleaned up. I'll take you to your house and send Jimin there. He's worried sick."

The car's engine from outside made my heart beat wildly. Jimin just came from work and I have to tell him the truth by tonight.

I was waiting here in the living room with our twins whom I just put into sleep. A little while later, he opened the door and revealed himself. I watched him look for me around the room and when we finally met gazes, he ran towards me and knelt. He hugged me and buried his face against my neck, so I felt his warm breath. He then caressed my hair and started to apologize over and over again.

I don't know why he's apologizing, but it kind of cured the little wounds insise my heart. "I'm worried sick, Dahyun! Where were you?" He asked and finally faced me. He cupped my face and checked if there are any scratches even though I wasn't in an accident.

"C-Calm yourself." I told him and held his hands. I can feel my hands getting stiffer and stiffer as the days go and it honestly scares me. "We have something to talk about." His eyebrows crossed immediately, but I just smiled to assure him that everything would go alright.

I made him sit beside me, so I held his hand and stared at it before saying anything. I sighed and looked into his eyes this time. "Drop your drugs, honey." I whispered. He looked astonished. "P-Please. Let's talk about this. I-I don't want you to go back to that v-vice." I pleaded and pointed my chest. "It hurts here." I said, pertaining to my heart. "D-Don't use them ever again."

"B-But..." he said, so I closed my eyes intently and sighed. I want him to understand that problems won't be solved by taking drugs, but I guess he would never understand that because he's under influence. "...o-okay, I'm sorry." He nodded and took a few packs from his pockets and wallet. He exposed every single pack in front of me. "I-I have a few at the kitchen, bathroom and our room. I-I'll clean them later."

"Good." I felt relieved. He finally opened his eyes because he wouldn't want to see me hurt, especially now that I'm in such bad condition. "And then..." he opened his eyes a little, waiting for me to say the next thing. "...I want to talk about Mina."

"Why?" He asked.

"She never told you this and I'm the first person to know. She never told anyone about this, actually. She's my brother's wife, so I thought I had to tell him next." As I say those words, I can feel my heart being stabbed again, but I have to contain myself. "Jimin, honey, you understand that you make out with her before, right?"

"Y-Yeah," he looked away. He must've felt awkward because I'm the one saying it. "S-Sorry."

"You had a baby with her, honey." His gaze went back to me right away. "She never told you about it."

"I-I was a father..." I heard him whisper. I felt my heart go sore again. Crap, I can't breathe. "...where's our baby?" He asked and was about to stand up, ready to go.

I shook my head, "s-she aborted him, honey." He looked flustered. "She didn't tell you because she's afraid. She was getting married."

"B-But...how dare she kill an innocent baby who has done nothing to her?" He asked. I can't answer his question anynore because Mina can only tell him why. "I-I'm going to her." His hands slipped from mine and I can't follow him because I'm only sitting on a wheelchair. I can't chase him.

I felt relieved now that he knows, but it gave me a sinking feeling especially when I saw his eyes sparkle when I mentioned that he had a baby with Mina.

I was never his first love. It was Mina and now, I'm wondering if he still loves her.
