Delinquents : The Thirteen Contenders

Chapter Fourteen : Long Ride

Jihoon and Chan stared at each other with no emotion. The silence that they were currently in was awkward.

Jihoon never expected that he'll just drag Chan but he was triggered to say the least.

"Satisfaction"

Chan answers. Jihoon stares at Chan with pleading eyes, He wants Chan to stop his doing because of the flashbacks and pain he receives.

He was triggered because he was at the same state as Chan before. Jihoon is triggered because he sees himself in Chan.

A boy who is careless with his life. A boy who is depressed. A boy who is confuse with the difference between satisfaction and depression.

"Stop cutting yourself kid, it won't help"

Jihoon spoke as Chan just shrugged his shoulders. Chan was confuse upon Jihoon's words but decided to let it go.

"You never know what's happening in my life so who are you to stop me with my satisfaction?"

"Do you even know what's the difference between depression and satisfaction?"

Jihoon asks. The aura inside the room had changed along side the gaze that Jihoon was giving to Chan.

Chan thought about it for a second but nothing came. He wasn't in a state of suffering currently. He didn't understood the difference but he knew the similarities.

"I'm not depressed!"

"But you're fucking careless kid!"

Jihoon exclaimed. Chan didn't flinch neither reacted to Jihoon's shout. It never intimidated him nor scared him because of the experiences he used to suffer.

Jihoon tried calming himself as for now. He didn't want to hurt Chan because of his anger issues. He knew Chan was a kid but he was curious upon Chan's past.

"Who the hell had hurt you?"

Jihoon muttered but loud enough for Chan to hear. Chan just chuckles as he knew Jihoon was curious about Chan.

Chan was a mysterious guy in Jihoon's side. He didn't trust Chan but he knew that Chan is like them.

He was sure that Chan is also a broken guy who wants to be fixed. A guy who seeks for satisfaction and revenge.

They're all broken but why are they the bad guys? Their hearts was closed by a person they loved so why would people judged them for their doings?

Are they wrong for wanting freedom and satisfaction? Are they at fault for getting it by killing?

"Everyone"

Chan smiles at Jihoon. Jihoon stared at Chan as he can see that behind his smile was cries and shouts of pain wanting to be released.

"People aren't born evil, they were just made like it"

Jihoon sighs at his statement as he received a slight laugh from Chan.

"But some were temptation that's why they were the reason of a person's change."

"I sometimes wonder on what the hell did people do to you that made you like this"

Jihoon mutters. Chan stares at Jihoon since he was confident that Jihoon was confuse upon Chan's way of thinking.

"These scars that surrounds me were the reason why I'm like this"

Jihoon didn't want to fight back since he understood Chan. He understood Chan's side.

"I do hope your life wasn't that hard like the others"

Chan said as Jihoon smirked. "Kid, that isn't even the worst thing that we had done and you're already giving up"

"who said I'm giving up? I'm just saying since every story that was said to me was the reason why I understood them. I understood the way they kill and wants for satisfaction and revenge. I understood their heartless way of thinking along side the tears they gave up to speak in front of me just to explain their life and after that, I understood why they hide their beautiful smiles. They're strong honestly"

Jihoon smiled at Chan's words as he didn't regret anything upon Chan being a part of their group.

Even if he didn't want to admit it, he was finally given a reason on why his trust was supposed to be given.

"Thank you"

"For?"

Chan raises his eye brows as he stares at Jihoon's chuckling state.

"Accepting us, people thinks we're heartless without knowing the mistreatment we had received when we were pure. We were once pure but sadly, it was stained by someone we loved the most"

Jihoon sighs as his own words as he finally got to open up his insides. Chan listened to Jihoon as he didn't fight back nor questioned him.

"I'll take you somewhere"

Jihoon starts the engine as Chan just allows Jihoon to bring him on where ever he suggested.

The ride was silent as the two were thinking upon their opinions in living.

The fact that Jihoon was shaking while driving concerns Chan. He was curious upon this place and the amount of tears that this man will give later.

Chan just stares at Jihoon with worry filled in his eyes. He was worried about Jihoon as he was expecting an explanation from him.

The ride was consist upon Forty Minutes straight and within this Forty Minutes, they were just silent.

When Jihoon parked the Car, Chan quickly got off as he observed the place they were in.

It was a abandoned adoption center. Chan was currently confuse as he just follows Jihoon from inside.

Trees and plants had surrounds the place and it had a large amount of  vandalism that covered the whole place.

As they were walking to the second floor, Jihoon had opened the door in one of the room as he entered.

Chan follows and when he entered, he saw blood stains that surrounds the wall, Vandalism had been drawn around along side some dusts that surrounds the room.

"Once you break my trust, you won't come out of the country alive"

Jihoon gave him a threat as Chan just nods slowly to avoid further arguments.

Chan stares at the blood stained room as he saw Jihoon getting a box under the bed.

As he opened the box, it contains pocket knifes, a razor, glue and some tape. Chan stares at Jihoon as he saw Jihoon smiled at him.

"I trust you kid so listen"
