"It's end, Hwanie..."
Hwan looked down a and let out a bitter cracky laugh,"I know, Igor." he looked at the man who was sitting next to him. They were sitting on a bench and looked at Han river again. The sun was sinking slowly through the orange ocean.
Igor sighed,"You're not sad?"
Hwan looked at him. Igor's brown hair was dancing in the air. His so white skin glew in the weak sunlight. He was even whiter than Hwan.
"I knew this would happen." he again stared on the river,"You're not strong enough to love me."
"But I saw you as person..." He touched his own chest.
"Yet, you scare to love men like me." Hwan looked at him,"But you're not doing wrong, Igor. You have a powerful future. Don't stay back for a prostitute like me. Who don't even know how to love you back."
Igor pressed his lips and smile bitterly,"As you said. I'm not strong enough."
Hwan smile a bit too. Igor stood up and turned to him,"Call me if any day you need me. I can set fire whatever you told. I promised."
Hwan stood up and smiled,"Having a death promise from the next world ruling business and a American mafia, is actually dangerous."
Igor's eyes softened,"So?"
Hwan looked up,"We will meet again."
"I wish god let me see your spouse next time." Igor's eyes crinkled as he smile.
"I'm not sure about it." Hwan chuckled.
Igor rubbed his neck and turned to leave and for the last time he saw the eighteen year old Hwan.
Hwan saw him disappeared in crowd.
Everyone could leave him without even glance back. But Tae Yun won't.
Tae Yun 'is' the one who can love him. And who was more than enough strong.

Kyung and Tae Yun was ranning. Their cars already blushed by police. They were ranning and the police was behind them.
Tae Yun pulled Kyung in a narrow alley. They trotted through the wall and reached another side of the wall, and landed on road.
"Shit! We fucked so hard!" Kyung cursed as they sped up their pace. But stopped immediately as they saw police was already before them a bit far. Waiting for them.
"Shit!" both of them curse. And turned to leave. But they heard a bullet bike sound. They immediately recognized that.
"Hwan!"
Hwan literally hit some police with his bike. He was almost fly the bike. He was wearing leather jacket and wearing a black helmet. He stopped besides them and pointed his thump from over his shoulder, to the back sit.
"Whoa!" Kyung exclaimed but Tae Yun already climbed on the bike,"COME FAST DICK HEAD!"
Kyung quickly climbed on. The police realized the case and immediately started their car. But Hwan twisted the accelerator, and the bike roared loudly.
"Hold tight, you both!" He warned. And ran the bike in so speed.
Kyung jerked. But Tae Yun hold his hands tightly,"Thank you bastard." he murmured. Actually Tae Yun was sitting in the middle.
Hwan eyes narrowed as he sped up the bike. He entered the main road. By his sadden appearance on the road a car driver panicked and pressed the break. Causing other cars hit that.
A huge mess occurred. But Hwan didn't lowered his speed.
"Slow a bit, God..." Kyung slightly panicked. Tae Yun rolled his eyes,"You both are going to Busan now." Hwan said suddenly.
They frowned,"What about you?" Tae Yun asked without even flinching.
"I'm not decleared as criminal yet. And I won't. So stay unbothered." He lowered the speed a bit as he felt it's safe now,"And why you both didn't tell me about Yon Seok."
Kyung and Tae Yun's eyes widened,"You know?" both said in union.
Hwan didn't reply back. Soon he stopped the bike,"Take the bike. And don't worry, I will handle everything." The all climbed down from the bike.
But Tae Yun shook his head,"No! I won't go leaving you here." He grabbed his both wrists. Hwan's expression softened,"Nothing will happen to me."
He took off the helmet. Tae Yun looked down. His eyes already moist. Kyung and Hwan looked at each other. Kyung signed Hwan to assure Tae Yun.
Hwan nodded. He cupped Tae Yun's face,"Listen. I'm not weak, Tae." he paused to watched Tae Yun's reaction. Hwan chuckled,"I already called Ahjumaa, hmm? Stay inside there. And always ready your guns. Hmm?"
Tae Yun nodded. His eyes were red. He was trying hard to hold the tears. Hwan ruffled his hair and made him climbed on bike.
Kyung turned on the engine. And started the bike. Tae Yun looked back. And smiled but still a sorrow was written on his face. Hwan waved his hand. Tae Yun did the same.
Both of them watched each other until they were out of view.
Hwan smiled,"You're so strong, Tae. I will always stay to you."

Yon Seok growled as he let his body fell on the couch. His hands already bandaged.
"Yon Soo... " he called for his wife. A woman who was hardly therties came to the living room. His hands were trembling,"Y.. Yes.."
"Give me some water." He threw his head back.
Within a minute she came back with a glass of water. He took the glass and drank it like animals. But immediately smashed the glass on the floor.
The glass shattered around the floor. Yon Soo flinched,"CAN'T YOU DO A WORK PROPERLY! I NEEDED COLD WATER."
She whimpered. But luck was in her side today. Yon Seok's phone buzzed. He paused. He glared at her,"Get out of my sight!" He hissed. She immediately ran to her room.
She closed the door behind her and leaned on it. She broke into sob. She sat there, and hide her face in his knees.
But suddenly his broken phone buzzed. She looked up. A shiver gone through her spine. She locked the door properly.
She swallowed but reached up for the phone. She sat on her bed. And looked at the caller ID. It's unknown.
She picked up,"H.. Hello.."
"It's Hwan. The king of brohels, Hwan."
Her eyes widened, word struck in his throat. But Hwan continued,"No one could trace this call. No one could tell about this call." a minute pause. Then,"Speak up, Woman. You can do so many things."
Her hands tightened around the phone,"What... You want..?" She whispered.
She heard a silent eerie laugh, he said,"You know what I need. It will save all of us, Yon Soo."
She wiped her tears,"Tell me what to do."
