"So...You don't work in your dad's company?"

Saewoo asked as she was seated on the brown russet leather chair as Taewon sat behind his desk, exasperated.

Nervousness rushing over him by her question,
"No! I do, I do...I just....Work there somthimes cuz this is my main business..."

Through his words he slowly dipped his head down in shame.

Saewoo was beyond shocked.
Her best friends brother who she also had a bit of liking for, is a boss for an illegal gang business.

"B-But, how? You were such an obedient child. You never did anything wrong and were always doing everything your dad said..how come you did...all this?"

Saewoo glanced around the office room as her eyes glowed, struggling to take everything in.
Taewon let out a weary sigh, his elbows placed on the wooden chestnut table.

"I was never obedient. I ran away from home many times when I was in high school. My 'good son' personality was just an act I put up for dad in sake of his reputation. I hated his company and didn't want to join it...but I knew he would force me into it someday, so I just...came across these guys who formed gangs and I don't know I...went along with them I guess..."

He stumbled on majority of his words while keeping his head low, staring down as Saewoo watched him speak.
He wasn't the perfect, over protective snub she always thought.

Her eyes scanned him.
As the sleeves of his dress shirt was folded up while his coller wide open, the start of huge tattoos could be peaked from his coller bone, trailing all the way down to his forearm.

Saewoo quickly shifted her gaze to the wall as she felt her heart race.

It felt as if everything was back as it was in middle school.
The euphoric thunder she felt when stealing glances at him in hallways, nervousness when ever he walked by, not being able to make straight eye contact.

He was her crush.

"W-what happenes if Herin finds out you do all th-"
"She won't know."

He peered over her, his eyes tired.
"I won't let her know a thing until it's...The right time or something...But for now...I dont plan on telling her anything, and till then,"

He stared into Saewoo's eyes, her hazel orbs shaking as she just had alot to take in, he continued

"Please, Don't tell Herin anything."

Saewoo bit her bottom lip, keeping it hostage while thinking deep.
"I beg you Saewoo...Please."

His eyes were glinted in distress, litteraly pleading her.

"Okay..I won't say anything."
Taewon sighed as his eyes rolled back in relief, but soon fell on Saewoo's wrists.
She sat there, messaging her bruised red wrists while the heat of those hard ropes still circled her skin.
