Chapter 2 - A different life.

"So you're telling me we're going to have to move to our grandma's house!" Seojin exclaimed.

"Yes I'm afraid you have to" Mrs. Park replied smoothly.

The thought of leaving his huge mansion and moving into a small house scared him and being the only grown-up in his siblings, due to the large age gap, he was the only one feeling suffocated.

He didn't want to imagine a life without his huge mansion. A place which contained all his needs. A huge swimming pool, a bowling alley, his own everything... He just couldn't imagine a life without them, especially without his huge room and gaming system.

It was not like they couldn't afford these things anymore or that they can't carry them to their grandmother's house. It was just that the house was too small for them to carry all these things, it was already filled with it's own furniture.

"But I don't understand why we have to move, can't we stay here, it's not like there is a problem, is there?" he asked, his voice lowering to a whisper.

"You're too young to understand that Seojin and there isn't one, there's a lot of problems and you have to move to your grandma's house for your own safety" Mrs. Park answered, trying to explain to the little one why it is important for them to move.

"My safety? what's wrong with my safety?" Seojin questioned, still not happy about the fact that they have to move.

Mrs. Park exhaled, pinching the bridge of her nose, trying to come up with words that could put some sense into him.

This is too much trouble.

"Listen you know your father was extremely rich right"

At his nod she continued.

"So let's just say that there are many people who want to take your father's money, that actually belongs to you and your siblings and to save that money you have to save yourself or let's just say they can harm you just to get the money. So till you're a grown-up you have to hide your identity by not letting anyone know about you and by protecting yourself. Understood?"

"Fine, I mean not like I have any other option." He grumbles." I'm ready, but how can I hide my identity? Like in Superman movies, can I just wear glasses?"

"I've made arrangements for that don't worry"

Seojin nodded again before heading towards his room.

They stared at each other before looking back at the car that was being unpacked with their luggages.

"Aunt, why can't we live with you?" Seojin asked, knowing how old his grandmother was to take care of them.

"I have a family to take care of. I also have to move back to England in a couple of days" Mrs. Park replied, staring at the small yet cozy house in front of her.

Just then their grandmother came out and looked at the three kids sympathetically.

"Nana!" the little girl yelled excitedly before running towards her grandmother.

"Oh my little cupcake, come here" her grandmother extended her arms before picking up her granddaughter.

"Nana, aunty said we're going to live with you now!"

"oh yes you are, come on everyone come inside"

Her grandmother, being in her early 50s, didn't have a problem picking up her little one. It was great sorrow that the young couple died leaving their three innocent babies behind.

"Mrs. Park, would you like something to drink" Their grandmother asked.

"Thank you, Mrs. Han but I'll pass" Mrs. Park replied politely.

"Cho-hee give these kids something to eat and also bring a glass of water for Mrs. Park"

"Yes Mrs. Han" Their caretaker replied.

"Mr. Lee I think we should get started" Mrs. Park spoke to the lawyer.

"Yes so...."

They soon continued their talks about where the kids would be studying from now as they couldn't afford the rich private schools. Their each and every arrangement was made by Mr. Lee along with Mrs. Park.

"Thankyou Mr. Lee, we'll soon follow up with the information" Mrs. Park replied before escorting him out.

"Areum-ah, when is your flight to England" Mrs. Han asked her.

"Tomorrow morning at 6 AM" She replied, closing the door behind her.

"You should bid the kids goodbye before they sleep, they won't be able to wake up early morning"

"Yes Mrs. Han"

"Nana, Is aunty going to leave us?" Suho asked, walking towards his grandmother.

"No, love, she'll just go around for some time"

"But Nana, why is she packing her things then?" Aera questioned.

"Don't worry she'll come around to visit you"
