some secrets canât be kept
jeonghan yawned as he realized the comfort of his room didnât feel the same without the chaos of his family, thereâs no y/n koala hugging him as he slept, no nayeon threatening to get grandma on him, no seohyun playing in flour while everyone napped, no eunbyeol being the only behaving child and no jaehyung to wake him up, he checked his phone and was disappointed to know that he wasnât woken up by his kids
âthis some bullshitâ he got back under his covers and tried to go back to sleep to no avail, so he got on his phone âall because seungcheol hyung thought of some bullshit to make me stay at the dormsâ as if he was a light switch his mood changed immediately when he saw a photo his mother in law sent of the five people he misses the most playing in sand on some beach in jeju
his heart softened and he visibly smiled âjaehyung is so bigâ jeonghanâs mood changed again when one of the members decided to knock on the door âwhat do you wantâ the surprised voice of his best friend rung out in shock âyouâre actually upâ âyes, now what do you needâ âget dressed weâre going out todayâ âiâm going homeâ âseungcheol hyung says not until you say why you ignored us for three monthsâ âiâm not planning on telling eitherâ the sigh of the younger 95 liner was enough to tell jeonghan to get dressed
âwhere are we going againâ âdance room, the vocal unit is doing a dance cover for crush, all 13 of us are going to be there thoughâ âi want to go homeâ the lack of answer made jeonghan groan before finally getting ready
âlook who came out of the-â âshut the fuck upâ âheâs grumpy seungkwan donât bother him todayâ joshua patted his friend on the back and they all walked to go to the dance practice
âiâm tiredâ jeonghan groaned for the umpteenth time that day and the other members either shook their head or rolled their eyes âyou can go home if you tell us why you ghosted us for three monthsâ âi have a cat at my personal home and she was sickâ jeonghan then showed all of them pictures of a cat, that in fact you had got as a gift for nayeon (read as family)
âwas that the truth jeonghanâ jeonghan looked the elder in his eyes and nodded âitâs trueâ seungcheol looked at him and sighed âsorry jeonghan, you can go home whenever you need too, whatâs her nameâ âchijeuâ some blinked before bursting out laughing âno wayâ âyes wayâ
i groaned in protest at the four year old trying to find some way to convince me to bring jeonghan here âmom, youâre obsessed with dad, you shouldâve took him with usâ ânayeon, honey heâs with his friends, he couldnât comeâ âsays whoâ i blinked at my daughter and she shuddered ânayeon i have been your age you havenât been mineâ âthatâs not fair youâre like fourtyâ
seohyun snickered at this and eunbyeol looked, then blinked, turned away then she acted as if we didnât exist while returning to her sandcastle âiâm actually in my twenties, you just turned four nayeonâ âiâm still the prettiest four year old youâve ever seenâ i rolled my eyes while playing in jaehyungâs hair âiâm going to call him girlsâ
a couple rings later and his face came onto screen while heavily panting âhi my loves, i miss you all so muchâ i set the camera up where he could see jae and he gasped âour son gotten so big huh jeonghan, and he looks just like moiâ jeonghan rolled his eyes making sure to stick out his tongue âi have you on the dance room speaker, so i can hear the girls in the back ground, it seems like jeju is funâ
âah, your little demon called me fourty jeonghanâ i then realized what he said and hung up abruptly, âoh my god, what did we just doâ
jeonghan was confused on why y/n hung up then the voices of seventeen made him drop his phone âyou lied to us about that cat huhâ âdo you even have a cat hyungâ âwhy didnât you tell usâ âyour pullout game is weakâ âshut the hell up jun, jeonghan is a dadâ the other members were either shocked or just confused on how he hid his family for so long
jeonghan denied everything while shaking his head no and waving his hands âso you see thatâs not who you think it wasâ
seungcheol looked the younger in his eyes and shook his head âjeonghan how many kids do you haveâ he then sat down wide eyed as it all sunk in
he accidentally blew his biggest secret
