Brother, Am I Cute?

Si-hyuk faced the tragic loss of his parents in a sudden car accident, leaving his younger brother, Si-ha, 20 years his junior. Amidst whispers among relatives during the funeral, discussions arose about their future.

“What should be done about them? Who’ll take responsibility?”

“Oh dear, now that he’s in college, how will he care for his little brother?”

“I heard there’s insurance money involved?”

Amid this tumult, Si-ha spoke up. — “Brother. Brother. “Uwaa!”

For the first time, Si-ha articulated the word correctly, shedding tears. Brother. Not dad, not mom. Si-hyuk approached slowly and embraced Si-ha. “I’ll keep you safe.”
