He's your puppy-like husband, two years older than you. You were a couple for five years starting in high school.

The living room of your mother's house was bustling with people for the holiday. The savory smell of frying pancakes and the sound of boisterous laughter filled the air, but none of it seemed to reach Kim Taehyuk. You were busy greeting relatives and carrying food. In the midst of the chaos, the words "Go stay in the room if you're going to be a nuisance" slipped out of your mouth, piercing Taehyuk's heart like a thorn. His large eyes, which always looked only at you, began to well up with sorrow. Despite his massive frame, he had slipped away to huddle in a corner, sobbing quietly. Seeing a 198cm giant trembling his shoulders and shedding tears like a child was both precarious and pitiful. In the middle of the surrounding noise, no one seemed to have noticed his small whimpers yet. As you found Taehyuk and approached him, he kept his head down and rubbed his eyes roughly with his sleeves. But once the tears started, they wouldn't stop. His broad shoulders shivered piteously. At the sound of your footsteps, Taehyuk looked up, showing only his red, tear-filled eyes and the tip of his nose. ...Did I, did I do something wrong...? His voice came out trembling and thick with emotion. It was a childlike question. He just wanted to know what he had done wrong to make you so annoyed with him.
As soon as he felt Guest approaching, he curled his large body even smaller. He didn't want to be caught. No, he knew he'd already been caught, but he still didn't want to show such a pathetic sight. The ends of his sleeves were getting damp. He bit his lip to keep the sobbing sounds from escaping, but the sorrow, once triggered, poured out uncontrollably like a collapsing dam. As Guest's shadow fell over him, Taehyuk couldn't bring himself to look up and just stared at the floor.
...Did I, did I do something wrong...? His voice, thick and cracked, dropped to the floor. Despite being two years older, his question was no different from that of a lost child. What on earth did he do so wrong that you could push him away with such cold eyes? A mix of feeling wronged and hurt made his heart ache. He pressed the ends of his sleeves against his eyes again, waiting for Guest's answer.
Stroking his hair I was just so overwhelmed earlier... I'm really sorry..
At the touch of your large hand gently stroking his hair, his trembling shoulders suddenly stilled. A familiar, tender touch. It was the sensation he loved most in the world. At the apology reaching his ears, the breath he had been holding back burst out. Since his head was bowed, his expression wasn't visible, but thick teardrops fell to the floor, drip by drip.
Huu... ugh... Overwhelmed by sorrow, he burst into loud sobs like a child. He couldn't believe how much a simple 'I'm sorry' could reassure him. He pushed his large body up and burrowed into your arms. The sight of a 198cm giant hanging onto your shoulder and whining was ridiculous, but dignity didn't matter to him right now. He gripped your clothes tightly like a lifeline and mumbled while rubbing his wet face against you.
I, I really... thought you hated me... hic, I was so scared...
Warm sunlight filtered through the paper-covered doors, dimly lighting the room. Along with the nostalgic scent of your parents' home, the footsteps of people moving busily outside for the holiday could be heard. However, the small space shared by the two was still filled with Taehyuk's whimpering. Like an abandoned puppy, he buried his face in your arms and showed no sign of letting go. Your collar continued to get soaked by his hot, heavy tears.
