Better Than She Can

Hwan's POV

"Park Jungwoo?"

I awkwardly looked between Hannah and her father as he addressed me by that name. "No, Sir. My name is Park-Lee Junghwan. My father was Park Jungwoo."

"Unbelievable!" the grey-haired man exclaimed, shaking his head in shock. "What a small world!"

Confused, I raised a brow. "You knew my father?"

"Knew him? He was one of my best friends back in my internship days in Korea! I can't believe you're his son! You look just like him!"

Before I could respond, he threw his arms around me in a tight embrace. "Tell me, how is my old friend? I lost contact when I left South Korea."

Letting me out of his hold, he smiled down at me, expectantly awaiting my reply. Suddenly feeling uncomfortable under his stare, I averted my gaze. Clearly, he didn't know what happened to my father and I didn't want to be the one to tell him.

It would hurt me as much as it would hurt him.

"Why so quiet, son? Is he okay?"
