The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Just like that, Beatrice and Cedric went out, leaving Maxwell and Sunny alone in the room.
Sunny pulled up a chair and sat beside his father's bed. "How are you feeling, Dad? Are you thirsty?" he asked, concerned. "Do you want me to get you a glass of water?"
Maxwell shook his head. "I'm okay." He then looked at the door thoughtfully and asked, "Sunny, where's your brother? Isn't he back yet?"
"He's back in his room. He was the one who told me about the secret room. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to find you! Do you know that Grandma and Grandpa even called the police to look for you? Don't ever go missing or drink alone again. You can just ask Lucas or me to drink with you!"
Maxwell looked at his younger son with relief, thinking he had certainly grown up. At the same time, he laughed self-deprecatingly at himself.
"Okay, I promise you I won't drink alone anymore. But you should know that Lucas will never drink with me."
Sunny gave it some thought and realized Maxwell was right.
"Even if he doesn't drink, you still have me! Dad, I'm not a child now. I can drink with you."
Maxwell merely smiled and said nothing on the matter.
'Lucas must really hate me if he'd rather send Sunny over to find me than to do it himself,' thought Maxwell.
"Dad, why do you have a secret room behind the bookshelf? I see there's a bed in it and some of your clothes. Have you lived there before?"
Maxwell snapped out of his thoughts and said, "It's nothing. It was already there when I moved in here. Sunny, I'm okay, and it's getting late. You should head back to bed, too."
Sunny shook his head. "I promised Grandpa and Grandma to take good care of you. It's fine. I'm not sleepy."
Maxwell frowned and said, "I'm really okay. I don't need you to take care of me. You go ahead and tell your brother that I'm fine."
Only then did Sunny recall the matter. He might not know Maxwell had been found yet.
He stood up and said, "Okay, I'll go tell him and I'll come back to see you later!"
After saying that, he hurried out.
Maxwell watched him leave before turning his eyes to the ceiling. His eyes gradually became blank as he thought of something.
Sunny knocked on Lucas' door and entered.
"We've found Dad, Lucas. Nothing happened. He was just drunk and asleep in the secret room you told me about."
Lucas was still on the sofa, smoking his cigarette. He simply nodded indifferently.
