"One of the worker stole their moneys. You know that this passed few months their company facing so many problems and in two weeks they have to pay their debts to bank". Shocked. Sungmin shocked to know the info he got this night. But then he feel relieved when his father continued "Appa willing to help uncle Han's company".
"I'm happy Appa is willing to help them," Sungmin smiled, looking at his parents.
"Appa will help them with some conditions Minnie", joined Leeteuk to his Husband and son's conversation.
"Yes. There are two conditions. One, Kyu have to help his Appa at their company. And he agreed with that", Kangin explained.
"Then what is the second condition?" Sungmin didn't know why he started curious with his own father.
"Kyuhyun have to marry you within two weeks."
"Mweo?"
"Yes Sungmin you heard appa right," Kangin Said. "You will marry Kyuhyun within two weeks."
"B-but appa.. Siwon?" Sungmin replied jittery.
"You have to break him up."
"But appa.. I love him. I love Siwon. And I just can't break him up with a reason to save uncle Hangeng's company."
"Sungmin.. Listen to appa, to save uncle Hangeng's company it needs a lot of moneys. And appa just can't give it like that. Appa needs you," Kangin explained wishing his son would agree with him.
"Appa.. You will do that to uncle Hangeng? He is your best friend," Sungmin couldn't believe what he just heard.
"Appa doesn't have amnesia until forget who uncle Hangeng is," Kangin realized it wouldn't be easy to convincing his only son. "But when it comes to business, he is appa's partner. Business is business."
Sungmin wasn't that stupid to not understand what his father meant. He took Fashion and Design at college, but as a child respected businessman in Seoul, he understood. Really understood. His appa needed an assurance, and by marrying Kyuhyun he got what he needed.
"Sungmin..," Sungmin lifted his head to see his father once he called him. "Beside that.. Your best friend Kyuhyun. What do you think will happen to him once his appa's company bankrupt? Have you heart to see his homeless and live in rent apartment?"
Sungmin didn't know what he wanted to say. He looked at his mother, asking for support that what his father wanted to do was wrong. And Leeteuk only gave him a look said that he couldn't help him.
"Don't you want to do it for him?", Kangin asked once again. "He is your best friend Sungmin. He did everything for you. Gave everything you wanted. PROTECT you from delinquent boys. Don't you want to PROTECT him back?" he asked, putting an emphasis on the word protect.
Confuse could be seen at Sungmin's face. Old memories crossed his mind. Memories with his best friend Kyuhyun, from they just were a kid until now turned be a young man.
Kangin stood up and walked over Sungmin. He patted his beloved son said, "Think abou it Minnie. But remember we don't have so much time".
"Ne Appa. I will think about it. Even if I still wishing there're other ways to save uncle Hangeng's company," Sungmin voiced out his mind, looking up to his father.
"Okay. It's late already. Appa and Eomma need rest. You need rest too so you could decide it soon."
"I know Appa," Sungmin rose from sofa where he sit, kissing his parent and greeted them good night.
Before Sungmin really left their family's room, Leeteuk said, "Minnie-ah.. I just want you to know that Appa and Eomma want you be happy."
"Eomma is right Minnie. We will work hard for your happiness," Kangin added.
"Ne Appa.. Eomma.. Minnie knows it," Sungmin smiled. In his entire life never once his parents disappointed him. "Jaljayo.."
"Yeobo..," Leeteuk called his husband once Sungmin disappeared from their sight.
"Don't worry. Everything will go like our plan," Kangin came closer, hugging as he kissed his forehead.
"I hope soo..," Leeteuk hugged him back.

"Why so late?" Kim Heechul greeted his husband and son right after he opened the door for them.
"Let's get inside first," Hangeng said, holding his shoulder. While Kyuhyun closed the door.
They headed to family's room. Took their seat. Heechul looked at his husband and son back and forward. He knew something wasn't right happened.
"What's wrong? What happened? Why your faces looks like that?" Heechul questioned. "Yeobo..".
"Hey calm down. We just came from Kangin's home," Hangeng explained.
"Kangin's home? Why do...," Heechul couldn't continue when Hangeng cutted his words.
"Chullie calm down. I'll explain it to you, okay?" the husband got nods as a sign that his wife would calm and listen to him. "Jong In, Kim Jong In stole our company's money. We don't have anything right now. Just a company with debts we have now".
Heechul shocked. He covered his open mouth with his hands. His eyes blurred as tears pooled in the corner of his eyes. He couldn't believe, a company that they raised from zero would crumbled down. "We should save our company Hannie. Are there anything we can do?" he asked his husband, wiping his fallen tears.
"We will make a report to police tomorrow. And i dont think we could get our money back soon, so we need money to pay our debts in bank."
"Where we can get money Hannie?"
"Uncle Kangin willing to help us eomma," Kyuhyun explained. "We invited to his home to talk about it".
"So Kangin will lent us moneys to pay the debts?" Heechul asked again. And got nod from the two mans he loved.
"Yes Chullie. He lents us money but with two conditions", Hangeng was one of open minded person. He always being honest to his family, more over to his wife. No secrets between them.
"Conditions?"
"He wants Kyuhyun help me in the company".
"Kyunnie..," Heechul faced his son.
"Ne eomma. Kyuhyun agreed to help appa. Don't worry," Kyuhyun gave assuring smile to his mother.
"Thank you son. Then what's the other condition?"
Silent. Both Hangeng and Kyuhyun hard to told the other man at the room.
"What's the other one Hannie?" Heechul looked at Hangeng and then to Kyuhyun. "Kyunnie?"
"He.. He wants Kyuhyun marry Sungmin," finally Hangeng let out the last condition that Kangin's gave.
"Marry Sungmin?"
"Ne eomma," Kyuhyun answered his mother.
"B-but... S-sungmin.." Heechul said stammerly.
"Kangin knew his son dating Siwon. But i dont know why, he insists Sungmin to marry Kyuhyun. I guess he is talking to Sungmin right now," Hangeng explained more.
"Then.. What about you Kyunnie? Do you accept your uncle Kangin's condition?" Heechul asked his only one son. He never had thought that his son should through things like what they faced now. He loved Sungmin, and he would be happy if he and his son tied on the name of marriaged. But used his son to save their dying company, never once it crossed his mind.
"I don't know Eomma," Kyuhyun answered.
"I know it's hard Kyunnie. Eomma wants you to think it right. It's not only about our company and business, but your future too," adviced Heechul.
"Ne eomma," Kyuhyun nodded.
"Hannie.. Don't we have any other way to save our company?"
"Remembering the remaining time we have, Kangin's offer is the only chance we can take." To be honest, Hangeng was tired. No energy left, his head ache pained him as well. But looked at his beloved wife and son, he could not be this weak. He should be strong, to fight, to save his company. Saved his family and life. And his wife didn't miss his tiredness.
"Everything will be okey Hannie. I believe you, we will survive from this deterioration," Heechul gave his support to his husband.
"Ne eomma is right appa. I am here too. As long we are together, We will fine," Kyuhyun turned giving his support to the front man in their family.
"It's a bless to have you two in my life. I love you. Both. So much," Hangegng hugged his family in same time, kissing Heechul forehead lovingly as his thank. And rubbing Kyuhyun's back showed that his appa was strong enough.
"We love you more," Heechul and Kyuhyun said in unison. Then they laughed together.
"Oh you both must be tired right? Go clean i will heat off the foods again and we have our dinner together," Heechul broke their hug.
"Okay choosey eomma," now Hangeng and Kyuhyun who said in unison.
"What? Choosey eomma? So you.. and you," Heechul pointed to Kyuhyun and Hangeng as he continuing said, "You naughty son and appa..".
Hangeng and Kyuhyun who really knew their beloved one when he gave his scary noted stood up immediately. They didn't want their pretty head got knock from him.
"See.. really naughty," Heechul got mad, playfully mad.
"Anio. We love you Eomma," Kyuhyun said.
"We just love you too much," Hangeng said while he and Kyuhyun made a distance from Heechul.
"Come here quickly!"
"No," Both father and son said and rushed off to their room leaving Heechul alone in family's room.
'I will always here. There's no way if I didn't sad to know what is happening in our family. But this Heechul is strong to support my family no matter what happen in the future,' Heechul promised in his heart.

Once Kyuhyun entered his room, closing the door immediately he lied his body in bed. Stared at the ceiling, his mind drifted away. His head filled with the idea of marrying Sungmin? He wondered from where his uncle got those idea? He even knew that Sungmin dating Siwon already, but he insisted for them to get marry. Is there any reason behind it? Or just for business reason? Didn't he trust his father?
Okay. To pay their debts need big amounts of money. And his Kangin needed an assurance what if his father took his money gone. But he was sure that his father never over did that. His father wasn't kind of person who would stab someone who helped him. And uncle Kangin knew that.
'So what made uncle Kangin gave those condition? Was there something that i didn't know? Was it about Siwon? Or...," Kyuhyun whispered.
Drrtt Drrtt Drrtt
Sound of coming message disturbed Kyuhyun's deep thought. Fished his phone out from his jeans pocket and he saw a message from Sungmin, asking is he home already or not. Slapped his head, he was cursing how he forgot to send Sungmin a message once he arrived at home. Quickly he replied, didn't want make Sungmin waiting and worrying about him.
'Worrying?' Kyuhyun asked his self. Sungmin must be knew already know about what happened to his family. Would Sungmin accept his father crazy idea?
'Yes, uncle Kangin was crazy!' Kyuhyun talked to him self. 'Gahhhhh.. I will follow you uncle Kangin! Follow you to be crazy!'
Drrtt Drrtt Drrtt
"Gosh who's now?" Kyuhyun checked his phone again. "Changmin?"
"Hey Min..," Kyuhyun answered his phone called.
"..."
"I'm at home. Yeah gonna take shower then Eomma is waiting for dinner."
"..."
"Yeah. That's the fact. We are under bankruptcy's shadow."
"..."
"Right now? Okay wait me there."
Bipp. Kyuhyun ended the call. Changmin asked him to meet at club usually they went. When Kyuhyun hang out with Sungmin, it meant you would meet the nice and gentleman Kyuhyun. But when it was with Changmin, it meant you met the wild side of Kyuhyun. No, it's not double personalities. Kyuhyun was a young man, who had curious side that brought him to do something 'wild' new. And just with Changmin he could showed that side.
Got ready to meet his buddy, Kyuhyun woke up and heading to bathroom.

Other side in Sungmin's room
Sungmin seemed still couldn't believe what his father said not so long time ago. He should marry Kyuhyun to save Kyuhyun's father company. And he still remembered how his father asked didn't he want to protect Kyuhyun back?
Sungmin recalled all the memories he had with Kyuhyun. His Father was right. When they played together, Kyuhyun would do anything to please him. Bought or gave what his eyes wanted. Protected him from bullying he got when at school.
'What should I do know? Sungmin asked. Didn't know to whom he asked. Then he remembered about Kyuhyun's promise to send him message when he arrived at his home. Checked the time on his phone, she assumed that he arrived already. Didn't want to wait an he sent a message to his best friend.
Not wait too long he got the replay said that he was home already and said sorry because forget to send him a message. When he tried to make call, Kyuhyun's phone was busy.
"Aish.. to whom you are talking this late?" Sungmin talked to his phone before pouted his M shaped lips.
It's like a habit when Sungmin in problem, he would look for Kyuhyun. Shared his problem, wishing his befriend would help him. But the problem he faced now was different, because Kyuhyun him self be part of it. He didn't know if it okay to talk about it to him. Or..
"Oh my God.. Siwon," Sungmin slapped his head. He felt guilty forgetting his boyfriend at this time. However Siwon included in this matter. If he married Kyuhyun, he should break him up. Could he break Siwon up? Could Siwon accept if he broke him up? They just promised to go dating more often this evening.
"No!" Sungmin shooked his head. "I love Siwon and I should keep my commitment to him". He wished in his heart that Kyuhyun would reject his father crazy idea and use his smart head to looking other ways.
Drrtt Drrtt Drrtt
Sungmin's phone vibrated showing he got a phone called. Without looking who called him, he picked up his phone. In his mind, he was sure that Kyuhyun who called him. And he would let out his anger because the other man busy on phone when he wanted to call him.
"Yah. Who is called you when I wanted to call you huh?"
"..."
"Wonnie.."
