The One Moon Chapter 30

The members gathered together for one more practice and taking a rest so they don’t overwork their bodies before the real performance.

During the past week, Moonhan has been visiting Duri a lot. In the morning, and at night and whenever he was free. It made the members a little suspicious. Moonhan kept using different excuses to go out. He spent his free time with Duri instead of his members or even Minato.

Minato felt sad about it but Haruto who knew the reason couldn’t reveal Han’s secret. Frustrated he figured it was time for the secret to being revealed. It was only 2 weeks and a half but Moonhan’s situation was distancing him from his friends.

That night he stayed up and followed Han to the Gongshim. As he was about to reach out to him, a cute little kid wearing duck slippers and a duck hat stuck his head and went out to hug Han. He couldn’t interrupt that cute bonding time.

Then, he thought to himself. Is it really my business to reveal? He’s happy and spending time with the boy made him happy. But won’t that burden him and who’s paying for the dorm. How much money does Han actually have? Haruto gave up and walked back to the dorm. But suddenly, Minato marched forward behind him.

“What, Minato? What are you doing there, wait no!”

“Shit, Minato found out.”

Haruto couldn’t stop him now.

“HEY!” Duri hid behind Han.

“So this is where you’ve been going? Is this kid your lost brother or something?”

“Minato… since you’ve found out anyway” not feeling too upset Minato found out. It wasn’t that big of a secret anyway.

“Duri, he’s a close friend of mine from the orphanage, introduce yourself.” A head stuck out from behind Han and talked.

“My name’s Duri, I like Da…, I like the moon.” About to accidentally reveal Han’s secret name.

Minato who saw the sight couldn’t stay upset and found the boy cute.

“My name is Minato, how old are you?”

“I am 11. Are you a good person?”

He turned towards Han and he nodded.

“Yeah, I am. I’ve been friends with Moonhan since I was in the orphanage.”

Duri smiled.

Moonhan spoke, “So, Minato, what ya doing here?”

“Hmm, I followed a fellow member here and found you with Duri.”

“A fellow member?”

“Yeah, he’s hiding over there.” Minato pointed to the plant and Haruto came out.

“Haha… hello…”

Duri became cautious after Haruto came.

“It’s okay, he’s a friend too,” said Han

Haruto walked over closer and revealed why he was following him from the beginning. He told the whole truth.

“Well, yeah and your manager and Eric kept the secret for you and I was going too but then Minato rushed over.”

“Heh, there was no reason to keep this a secret anyway, Duri is too cute to keep in hiding.” Minato felt kinda upset Duri wasn’t introduced to him earlier.

Moonhan noticed this and apologized.

“I’m sorry…” Minato looked at him and sighed.

“Look, I know you have a lot of secrets and things you want to hide. I’ve known you since we were young, I know the secret I know is not the only one.”

“I’m always on your side, Han, don’t worry. Come to me when you need help.”

Han looked down and say ok.

Duri saw this and hugged Han’s leg and patted it like he was comforting him. Han crouched down and hugged him back.

Minato who saw this found the sight so adorable.

“Can I have a hug too?”

“NO. You made Hyung sad!’

“Oh, did I?” Then, he went over to hug Han and squished him.

“Then, I’ll comfort him for you and patted Han’s head.

“NO, NO, Go away. Hyung doesn’t need you!”

The two were bickering like they were friends for a long time.

Moonhan smiled and was glad Duri had a new person to hang out with.

Haruto who was just watching all this happen decided to say something.

“Ummm, so are you gonna tell the others?”

“It’s not like I should hide at this point.” Duri can make more friends too. Thinking that Haru and Duri would be good buddies.

“Hyung, am I meeting new people?” said Duri

“Don’t worry, they won’t come up to you if you don’t like it. Just tell them to stay a few inches apart from you if you want them far from you? Ok?”

“Ok…” Duri still nervous.

Moonhan decided to introduce Duri to the other members and had to warn them about staying a little far from Duri on their first few meetings.

Duri packed us his few clothes and stuffed them into the new duck bag, Han got for him. He slid it onto his shoulder and it was hanging around his waist,

“You ready?”

“Yes.” He climbed onto Moonhan’s skinny arms and relaxed onto him.

“What a sight,” Minato said.

The two people who look younger than their age because of their skinny physique were really like they were real brothers.

Minato smiled happy that Han finally had someone he could care dearly for again. Though, he was a little jealous Duri was first priority, he knew that he himself was still an important part of Han’s life and hoped the best for him. They went through a lot together at the orphanage.

Haruto walked behind the three finding the trio amusing.

“A family of orphans with different backgrounds. It doesn’t matter if blood is thicker than water, what matters is the bond and feelings to each other.” He thought and the trio in front of him really proved the saying.
