Secretly Married to a Chaebol Alpha novel Chapter 191

Chapter 191: AS PARENTS

"D-DAD, are we going to ride a car?"

Garam noticed that Gunwoo suddenly trembled when Shin Geon opened the door to the backseat of the car.

Then his son hugged him and buried his face against his neck.

Of course, that got him worried.

"What’s wrong, baby?"

"I don’t want to ride a car," Gunwoo said weakly while shaking his head. "The bad doctor left me in his car..."

Oh.

Hearing that broke Garam’s heart.

My son is really traumatized.

Gunwoo had lost consciousness when Kim Heedo brought him to the hospital via car.

But now that my son is awake, he probably remembers his kidnapping...

"Dad, I don’t want to get in the car..."

"Then we won’t," Garam assured his son, swallowing the lump in his throat. "Gunwoo-ya, do you want to ride the subway? You haven’t been to a subway yet."

Yes, this would be his son’s first time commuting.

He has already been to a ferry, but not the subway or bus.

"Subway?" Gunwoo asked curiously, lifting his head. Fortunately, the fear in his son’s eyes had been replaced by curiosity now. "What is that, Dad?"

"A train," Garam explained simply. "Do you want to ride the train with me?"

Gunwoo beamed and nodded. "Yes, Dad!"

***

FORTUNATELY, the subway wasn’t too crowded because it was mid-day.

Garam and Gunwoo rode the train during off-peak hours, hence they got lucky and was able to sit.

Of course, Shin Geon and a few bodyguards were there.

But Geon Hyung and the others are acting like civilians who have nothing to do with us.

Anyway, Garam got conscious at first because he wasn’t covering his face properly.

But that feeling disappeared when he realized that most of the people in the carriage were old people who didn’t recognize him. Meanwhile, the younger ones were too absorbed in their phones.

Whew.

He was relieved because he couldn’t wear a face mask.

My son panics when he sees people wearing masks, so I can’t wear one.

The only thing he could do to cover his face a bit was to wear a cap and lower the visor as much as possible.

"Dad, Dad, I like it here," Gunwoo said, his eyes sparkling while looking at the view outside the scenery. "The buildings look like my toys! They’re so small." He paused for a moment and nodded as if he thought of something interesting. "I’ll ask Daddy to buy me more toy buildings. With the view like that!"

The view wasn’t really scenic.

Since the subway was primarily an underground urban landscape, all they saw earlier were tunnel walls. Then they got a glimpse of the city’s modern architecture as the subway emerged from above the ground.

Now the scenery transitioned from the subway tunnels to above-ground views of the bustling, upscale neighborhood.

We’re getting near to our stop.

"I’m glad that you’re having fun, baby," Garam said, smiling while ruffling his son’s hair. "We’re going to ride the bus next."

Gunwoo’s face beamed. "I’m excited, Dad!"

***

GARAM hugged Gunwoo tight after they got out of the subway.

His son had his face buried against his neck.

After all, a lot of people were wearing face masks in the station.

"Dad, I don’t like it here," Gunwoo said weakly. "Are we at the bus yet?"

"We’re near the bus station..."

Hmm?

Garam stopped talking after he caught a familiar scent.

Sihyuk Hyung?

And he didn’t get it wrong.

They’re probably wondering if Sihyuk Hyung is a celebrity.

I called Hyung earlier to let him know that we’re taking the subway.

Hyung probably caught whiff of my scent, too.

This hyung just wants to hold my hand.
