PREVIOUSLY ON "AUTUMN KILLED"

"I found out about his marriage to Nalin."
"He did what?!"



"Ten, do you know something that I should know?"
"I'm not in a position to say anything."
"Then what do I do now?"
"Stay here for just a little bit more. Taeyong needs you. Believe it or not, he really does."

"So, I have a meeting in Tokyo, and I'd like you to come with me."
"I'll be there, Yuta."

PAST

"Why don't you just tell me?" I nagged as I sat on Sayeon's queen-sized bed and watched her applying her lipstick. L'ÉTOFFE DU MAT was the trademark on her heart-shaped lips.

"The same reason why you and my baby brother hid your relationship from us."

"Not fair. You found out about us. It's not the same."

"That's correct, it's not the same. I found out. It's not like any of you told me."

"But why though? I just wanna know if he's someone I know."

"Pretty sure you do."

"Really? Please tell me then. Now I need to know!"

"No."

"Whyyy?" I whined like a little child, head disappointedly dropping to the side. With the look Sayeon gave me through the mirror, I concluded she could care less.

"It will put me in danger. It will put him in danger. Most importantly, it will put you in danger as well."

"I love danger," I grinned, "Come on, just tell me the first letter of his first name."

"No."

"Second letter?"

"No."

"Thir–"

"Cami!" She turned around abruptly. "It's already dangerous enough for you to know that I'm in a relationship. I won't ever tell you any names. The only way for you to find out is after I get married. So please, just let it be."

"Hm-kay."

...

"Sayeon?"

"Yes?"

"When are you getting married?"

"Cami!" Sayeon laughed. " If my crackhead family hadn't got such a stick up their asses, I would have told everyone who I'm with long ago. But... since that's not the case, we must all be patient."
