He is an orphan. No one wants him. Every family he has stayed with, all pass him back to the orphanage. All he has is his diary which contains tons of sad stories of his life, no happy story for him to write in the diary. Maybe, that’s his faith. But, things are going to change....
He was just a normal kid, 5 years old kid. He acted normally like a kid usually did but slightly different due to no love from parents since young. He lost his parents. They were died in an accident 5 years ago. Now he stayed at an orphanage. Name given was Cho Kyuhyun, a beautiful name given by his parents even though he had never met them. Kyuhyun had once met his grandparents when he was 3 but he was still a kid with runny nose at that time, a kid enough to understand what adults were talking. They just left him. His parents had gone first before he could learn how to say ‘umma’ and ‘appa’.
He had been adopted so many times and never lasted long. The first family Kyuhyun had been with was Mr. Kim’s family. It was great at first, the family accepted Kyuhyun the way he was. But that did not last long when Mr. Kim’s daughter annoying son always picked up a fight with him. There was one day when he was writing (more to doodling) something in his diary, that Kim boy came and took away his diary. Not just that, he even tore up a piece of the paper of the diary. He felt like wanted to cry because the diary was the last gift his mom gave him (an aunty came to give this diary to his guidance at the orphanage when he was 3) but he couldn’t just cry, he must fight back for the diary’s sake. Being the grumpy Cho Kyuhyun he was, he pulled that Kim boy’s hair and that fight ended. Their fight was discovered by Mr. Kim. Yes, that jerk reported that to his father. That kid smirked smugly as Kyuhyun was being lectured by Mr. Kim for hurting his son which he thought he did not. A day after that, Kyuhyun was sent back to the orphanage. Ah, that kid’s name was Kim Hee-something. Kyuhyun did not want to even remember about that family.
The second family he stayed with was a rich family. His foster-parents were business persons. They were always busy, always outstation. Unfortunately, they were not really ‘umma and appa’ type. They adopted Kyuhyun just to have a feeling of having a child, what a weird couple. He wondered if adopting children had become a trend nowadays. Weird. After a few weeks, when the ‘adopting children season’ ended, he was sent back again to the orphanage.
He felt like he was useless, no one wanted him seriously as their child. He was not a doll which could be taken and put anytime anywhere. He was just a boy who was seeking for love that he never had a chance to feel from someone who sincerely wished to be his parents.
He had lost count for how many family he had been with. He was tired of this. He just wanted to be loved. Was it really hard to show him some love? He just wanted that, just that. Nor he asked for a room full with luxurious toys, great clothes, delicious foods for every dinner, he just wanted to be loved. Unconsciously, tears were running down Kyuhyun’s cheek. Kyuhyun pulled up his blanket, covering his body until his neck, hoping tomorrow would be better than today. With that, he fell asleep.
**
Days by days, weeks by weeks passed. It was almost two months, no one came to adopt him as their child. Kyuhyun’s best friend, Ryeowook had left him. Ryeowook had been adopted by a couple. The couple seemed to love Ryeowook so much. Plus, Ryeowook even got a little brother. Henry who is so bubbly approached Kyuhyun the day Ryeowook had been adopted and greeted him. He called Kyuhyun, hyung and that was the sweetest thing he ever felt. After Ryeowook’s foster-family was done with adopting process, they left with Ryeowook. Ryeowook hugged his best friend tightly, promised Kyuhyun to meet him someday. He was now alone. The other kids did not really like him since he was mean towards them, no one had ever tried to be close to him, only Ryeowook dared. But now, Ryeowook had left. He felt isolated.
**
A few weeks passed. It was weekend, Sunday. A man came to the orphanage office. From Kyuhyun’s prediction, that man must be looking for a kid to adopt since he brought a file filled with papers. He merely watched the man talking with the officer. The man sometimes nodded while the officer was talking. ‘His first time to adopt kid, maybe’. Kyuhyun thought. The man has brownish hair and was wearing white shirt with black slack. ‘He doesn’t seem like a daddy.’ Kyuhyun judged that man. The officer handed few pieces of paper to that man and he read carefully. They stopped for a while and the officer pointed to Kyuhyun who was sitting on the sofa at the corner with his dairy in his hand. That man was walking towards Kyuhyun. He greeted Kyuhyun with a smile.
“Hey, what’s your name?”
“…”
“..”
“.”
“Err..”
“Come on, I don’t eat people.” That man smiled, he got dimples.
“Ky..Kyuhyun, Cho Kyuhyun.” He lowered his head.
“Nice name, how are you doing?”
“Err, thank you. I’m doing great. Err, umm, which kid you’re going to pick?” Unconsciously, the question popped out.
“I don’t know yet, why? I’m still observing the kids.” He chuckled. “Why? You want to be my son?”
Kyuhyun eyes got bigger and he slightly nodded, meant yes he wants. This was weird. Cho Kyuhyun never agreed to be adopted easily unless being convinced so many times. But, this was a different case, he agreed to this man. Kyuhyun felt so close to this man. Unfortunately, their conversation was interrupted by the officer and that man missed Kyuhyun’s nod.
“Mr. Park, I have the photos and the profiles of the kids with me. You can check these and then we can process your form.”
‘Ohh, Mr. Park.’
They both went to the table back to discuss about the adopting, leaving Kyuhyun alone again.
“When can I take him?” Jungsoo asked the officer.
“It depends on the kid.”
“What if tomorrow. I can come pick him after working hour. And I can at least prepare a room for him tonight. My son would love to help me preparing the room for his new brother.”
“That would be okay, I guess.” the officer nodded. The officer waved to his co-worker and gave her the form. “After two months, someone wants to adopt him for, I don’t know how many times. Tell him to pack his things, he’s leaving tomorrow.” The other officer nodded.
**
Kyuhyun met again Jungsoo at the front gate. He was sitting on the swing alone. Mr. Park approached him. “Hey, who did you choose?” Kyuhyun asked.
Jungsoo shrugged. “You’ll know tomorrow, maybe your friend.”
“Will you still come here even when you’re done with the adopting?” Kyuhyun asked more.
“Maybe, yes.”
Their conversation was cut again by a shout from inside the orphanage. Jungsoo looked at his watch. “It’s lunch time, Kyuhyun. Go eat now, okay?” He ruffled Kyuhyun’s hair then left.
“Bye…”
**
That night, Kyuhyun was asked to pack his things up. He just did as instructed. Being adopted now had no meaning to him, it felt like going on a vacation. He would return back again to this orphanage later.
**
Jungsoo came again to the orphanage the next day to fetch his new adopted son. He waited in the orphanage’s office.
Few minutes passed, there was a knock on the door and Kyuhyun with his bags entered the room. Kyuhyun did not realize that was Mr. Park since he was just only facing the floor.
“So, this is your new foster-parent.” The officer shoved him in front.
Jungsoo kneeled down to be on the same eyes-level with Kyuhyun who was still facing the floor.
“Kyuhyun-ah?” Jungsoo ruffled Kyuhyun’s hair.
“Eh, Mr. Park?” His sparkling eyes got bigger. “You’re going to be my new foster-parent?” smile decorated his plump lips.
Jungsoo just nodded. Kyuhyun crushed him with a big hug. “UMMA!!!”
“Eh?”
“He’s normally like that. He called everyone ‘umma’ when he first met them.” After Jungsoo was done with the adopting process, he left with Kyuhyun holding his hand tightly.
Kyuhyun was bouncing gleefully while they were walking towards Jungsoo’s car. Jungsoo helped Kyuhyun to pick his bags and put them in the car.
**
“You know what, you’ll get a hyung. He’s at home. He’s 7 years old. 2 years older that you, right”
“Whoa, it sounds fun. Is he great? Does he love kid like me?” Kyuhyun couldn’t wait to reach his new home, Jungsoo’s home. He even got a new nickname given by Jungsoo. It’s Kyuiie.
“I’m sure he will love you. Eh Kyuiie, why did you call me ‘umma’ at the office just now?”
“I don’t know, I just feel like meeting my umma in person. Err, can I just call you umma?” his voice got slower until the last word, umma.
“Aish, you and Hyukkie are just the same.” He sighed but then chuckled.
“Hyukkie? Who is Hyukkie?”
“It’s hyung to you. He’s your hyung. Hah, there! My house, your new house.” Jungsoo slowed his car and stopped in front of a house. Two little boys came out from the house, running to hug Jungsoo.
“I hug umma first!” the first boy stuck out his tongue to the other one.
“Heh, he’s my umma!” the latter replied.
‘Didn’t umma say I will have a hyung? But, two is better!’ he just watched the boys until Jungsoo kissed them both on the cheeks.
“Umma, who’s this?” Eunhyuk was the first one to realize the presence of Kyuhyun there. Followed by Donghae, Eunhyuk’s friend who came standing beside Kyuhyun while poking Kyuhyun’s cheek.
“Is he an alien? Where is your UFO.” Donghae was still poking Kyuhyun’s cheek which had become red. He eyed Kyuhyun from head to toe as if Kyuhyun was another creation from other planet. That was what he actually thinking.
“Yah, stop that, you’re hurting him!” Eunhyuk shoved Donghae’s hand away from Kyuhyun’s face.
“He’s your new dongsaeng. Remember I told you last night?” Jungsoo explained to his son, Eunhyuk.
“Kyuhyun-ssi? Aigoooo, you’re so cute!!!!!!” Eunhyuk hugged Kyuhyun and pinched his cheek.
“I think, that’s enough for your intro. Hyukkie, help him carry the bag, arasso?” Jungsoo separated those two hugged boys.
“Me?” Donghae pointed his finger to his face.
“Take this!” Eunhyuk passed Donghae a huge bag while Eunhyuk was just holding Kyuhyun’s hand then walked into their house, leaving Donghae alone.
“Yahhh!!”
After a few minutes, Eunhyuk came running back to Donghae, helped Donghae to pick all those bags. Jungsoo could just chuckle seeing these two boys. Donghae was Eunhyuk’s best friend (but, Donghae claimed himself as Eunhyuk’s boyfriend, kids, you know) and their neighbor. Donghae’s parents were always come home late so his house was Donghae’s second house. He followed Eunhyuk straight away to their house after the school ended.
**
It had been 3 months Kyuhyun stayed with Jungsoo’s family. This was a new record, the longest period he had been with foster-family. He was nicely treated. Eunhyuk-hyung was a nice kid, he always took care of him at school, he also helped him to buy foods during recess at school. Donghae-hyung as well, he’s such a playful kid, always with his alien’s world.
The best thing was, Kyuhyun met his best friend, Ryeowook and what even greater was, they were in the same class. He did not know that Ryeowook’s foster-family also lived at the same housing-area as him. And his umma (yes, Kyu kept calling Jungsoo ‘umma ‘just like his hyung) was a friend to Ryeowook’s appa, Mr. Choi. They sometimes went to school together with Eunhyuk-hyung, Donghae-hyung and dropped Henry at the kindergarten beside the school. During school holidays, they always had sleepover at Ryeowook’s house and sometimes at Jungsoo’s house. Now, his diary was full with happy stories, his life was full with laughters, smiles. No more forlornness.
**
Kyuhyun never expected his sorrow life would turn to be like this, full with happiness. He’s now 19. He had stayed with Jungsoo’s family for 14 years and Kyuhyun never regretted for nodding when his umma asked him, “You want to be my son?” 14 years ago. Jungsoo had actually seen Kyuhyun nodded and he was grateful that he asked for Kyuhyun’s name at that moment, that made the adopting process went on smoothly after he discussed with the officer.
He had a great umma even though he never knew anything about his another foster-parent because umma never talked to him about that. Kyuhyun had seen his umma cried at the kitchen one night, he approached him and hugged him. He did not know the reason that made umma cried but umma kept saying “I have enough love from you guys. I don’t need anyone else.” That night, Kyuhyun slept in his umma’s embrace which was warm and nice.
He had a nice hyung, not a hyung. He got two hyungs, Donghae-hyung had claimed him as Donghae-junior because Donghae had seen him played game and Donghae declared Kyuhyun as alien’s addict too. You know how game characters look alike, they look like aliens, that was the point for Donghae to say he loved alien too, whatever Donghae-hyung but Kyuhyun loved you. Eunhyuk-hyung was the best hyung he ever had! He never made Kyuhyun sad when he was with him. He had actually, when he took Kyuhyun’s food during dinner and ate it. But, nah, it’s okay. That’s normal for a monkey. Yes, that’s a new nickname Kyuhyun gave to Eunhyuk-hyung, he and Donghae-hyung created that. Sometimes, he did feel something fishy going on between Eunhyuk and Donghae but…. That’s their lives, they have their own stories.
He had so many friends at school and plus a dongsaeng, Henry. Ryeowook said, Kyuhyun could share Henry with him. Henry who was standing between them at that moment could only look at his two hyungs talking about him and sometimes nodded when when Ryeowook suddenly “Right, mochi?” at him. Kyuhyun also met another new friend in his secondary school even though they always fought. He was Zhoumi, the tallest student in his school (he took the title away from Kyuhyun!) and now in his college. They went to the same college. Zhoumi came from a rich family, Kyuhyun guessed because have you ever imagined a student at age 8 using a Gucci bag as school bag, that’s weird! But, that’s Zhoumi.
**
Everything that he had been dreaming when he was at the orphanage had become true. He had everything that he wanted, and he had the loves that he had been craving for.
Kyuhyun thanked the orphanage, he thanked everyone who took care when he was at the orphanage, he thanked the sofa he sat on, he thanked the officer for pointing at him, he thanked his umma, Jungsoo for asking his name, he thanked Jungsoo for taking him as son, he thanked Eunhyuk-hyung and Donghae-hyung for being the best hyungs and buddies in the world, he thanked Ryeowook, Henry and Zhoumi for being the very best friends ever in his life, he thanked God.
After Kyuhyun finished writing his diary, he slipped the diary under his pillow. His door was knocked, his umma entered.
“Have you prepared everything, Kyuiie?” Jungsoo asked, checking the bags at the corner of the room.
“Yes, unless Hyuk-hyung came into my room and took anything out.”
“Yahhh! I’m not that kind of person, unlike you who stole and USE my boxer!” Eunhyuk appeared with Donghae stuck at his side and said out loud the word ‘use’.
“Yah!” he threw a pillow to Eunhyuk. Bingo, right on Eunhyuk’s face. Jungsoo slowly crept out from the room while laughing slightly. “Shut up, hyung!... Donghae-hyung? What are you doing here?”
“Since you’re leaving tomorrow, so I want to have my last precious time with my dongsaeng, not a crime, right?”
“Oh, sure.” Kyuhyun was going to leave tomorrow to stay at the dorm at his university but his umma insisted him to stay at home but he wanted to be independent.
“Boys, go to sleep now, you’re going to be late tomorrow if you don’t sleep now.” Jungsoo shouted from his room. Eunhyuk and Donghae left Kyuhyun’s room and walked to Eunhyuk’s room.
“Donghae-hyung knows how to stick with his monkey.” Kyuhyun went to sit on his bed and took out again his diary, he jotted down the last sentence in his diary and went to sleep.
**
“Umma, I’m leaving, don’t miss me, kay? I’ll make sure Hyuk-hyung and Hae-hyung take care of you.” He hugged his umma then his both hyungs, yes, Donghae’s here too.
“Don’t worry, I will. Call us if you need anything. I’ll try to come visit you every weekend if I’m not busy with my assignment, you’re not the only who studies in college, okay!” Eunhyuk patted Kyuhyun’s shoulder.
“Don’t skip meals, don’t sleep late, don’t eat wrong foods, call me if you’re not feeling well, okay?” Jungsoo kissed Kyuhyun’s forehead then held Kyuhyun’s face in his both hands, praising the beautifulness of the creation in front of him.
“Yes umma. I won’t do the don’ts.” he hugged his umma again, planting a kiss on Jungsoo’s cheek.
“Eeyyy, act like a parent and son please, you guys look like a couple.” Eunhyuk complained from back. Kyuhyun approached him and prodded his waist with ‘Ayy, hyung is jealous’ while smiling mockingly.
Jungsoo laughed slightly seeing his two sons bickering over nothing, they always like that. Donghae who was standing beside Eunhyuk tried to stop those two fighting cats.
Eunhyuk was trying to avoid Kyuhyun’s finger which was flying to find its way to poke Eunhyuk’s waist because Eunhyuk easily felt ticklish.
“Yah, yah. Enough already, act like matured boys, will you?” Jungsoo managed to stop both boys.
“Attention to all students, all of you can bring your things to your dorm now. Each room is for two students. Thank you. Any enquiries can be submitted at secretary desk.” The voice from speaker announced.
“Okay, we’re leaving. Call me okay if you want to know any updates from space!” Donghae, still the same with his alien maniac, hugged him.
**
They all left Kyuhyun. Kyuhyun took his things to his dorm. He noticed a pair of shoes outside the room, that must be his roommate’s shoes.
“Hey, I’m Cho Kyuhyun.” He greeted his new roommate who was busy unloading his luggage, a branded luggage.
“Whoaa, we share a room.” Zhoumi’s voice could be heard.
“What?! No, you’re kidding me.”
“No, I am not.”
“So, play nice. Don’t pick up a fight with me again, I don’t want to be accused again for ravaging your Gucci bag which I did not.”
“You still remember? Whoaa, this time is not Gucci, but, it’s Prada.”
“Whatever….”
They continued unloading their luggage.
**
Kyuhyun sent a message to Eunhyuk via his cellphone, telling him about his roommate and other things that he thought were supposed be told. The message he got as reply really made him wanted to punch his hyung’s face right now.
“From Hyuk-hyung:
‘Okay. Thank you Kyu-ah for staying at the dorm! Donghae is staying at our house, IN YOUR ROOM for these 3 weeks since his parents are going oversea. Hyung love you! Mmuahhh!’ “
“Yahhhh, if I found any damages when I come home, you and your fishy are dead!!” he promptly called Eunhyuk after receiving the message and he could hear Donghae laughing.
**
After done writing his diary, Kyuhyun got ready to sleep. He was hopping for another better days tomorrow and another tomorrow and the rest tomorrow. He pulled up his blanket, covering his face and slept.
‘Sometimes, we are curious why God disguises sun from us and He gives us thunder and lightning. But then, He gives us rainbow to shine colorfully.’
