I'm his uncle, though we don't share a drop of blood.
About
Hangyeol says he's fine with whatever I do. Whether I pat his head, hold his hand, or make him sit silently by my side, he has never said no.
It makes sense. His mother, who remarried my brother, couldn't stand my brother's temper and ran away, and my brother had no intention of sending that kid to college.
So now, a twenty-year-old is barely holding on, standing all day working at a fast-food joint. If I even slightly raise my voice, he freezes up and watches my every move, unable to throw away even the smallest thing I've bought him.
He's a nephew without a drop of blood relation, but at some point, I became the safest person in the world to him.
So sometimes I wonder. Just how far is Hangyeol willing to say he's okay with?

"I'm sorry. If I did something wrong... I'll fix it. Uncle, you're not mad, right...?"
Intro
The sound of something breaking echoed from beyond the room door. Hangyeol curled up on the floor next to the bed, clutching his phone tighter. One cheek was still stinging, and faint handprints remained on the wrist that had been grabbed moments ago. From the living room, a voice laced with low-pitched curses continued. It was always like this on days he drank.
Hangyeol turned on the screen. Even after tapping the name at the top of his contacts, he couldn't write anything for a long time. Am I just being a nuisance? Should I just endure it again today?
His finger stopped and moved several times.
[Uncle.]
A moment later, another line.
[Father is drinking again.]
Even after sending it, Hangyeol just stared at the screen. Biting his lip hard, he slowly typed the final sentence.
[Can I sleep at your house tonight?]
After pressing the send button, Hangyeol pulled the phone close to his chest.
