I'll Be Waiting For You

"So, you planned to get Yerin and let her stay here because someone wants to kill her?" Yewon asked when Younghoon told her his plan. The plan that he said before when he let Yerin stay in their house for good.

"I wanna protect her. To do that, she must be on my side," Younghoon answered and glanced at her.

"Do you like her?"

Younghoon suddenly looked at her and didn't answer. But his look gave Yewon a hint that he really admire her. Although she hates her guts, she cannot prevent Younghoon from falling. It's his life and she doesn't have the right to interfere in his lovelife.

"How's your heart?"

Yewon looked away and felt again the pain in her chest. "What can I do? There's nothing I can do right now. I should accept the fact that Eunbi will never love me as a lover."

Younghoon also felt her pain. She's been through a lot. He promised that he'll protect his little sister but he failed. He admits that he really planned to kill Eunbi because of his grudge towards her and because of what she did to Yewon but then he realized that he'll be no different from the mastermind of the crimes happening in this world. He wants to obliterate his killings. He wants to help the people here. Yewon didn't know his goal but he is truly determined.

"Anyways, Hyunjae wants to see you."

"Well, tell him that I don't want to."

Younghoon chuckled and pinched her cheeks. "But he wants to talk to you. Don't you like that?" He gave her a meaningful stare and seems like teasing her.

"Aish, orabeoni!" She hit her brother's shoulder why he's laughing hard. And she hates the idea that her brother acts cold and against Hyunjae but when it's just the two of them, he keeps on teasing her with Hyunjae.

Several men are surrounding the old house that seems like a base of the powerful man in this world. They are guarding this place and making sure that no humans are loitering around the place.

Inside the base, two people are talking seriously.

"My Lord, what will be our next step?" The big man asked while stroking his chin, touching some of his beards. His intimidating aura scared the hell out of the men in the base except for his Lord. Their men couldn't argue with him, all the men respect and obey him.

"We'll execute our next plan, Helios. We'll attack at day," the man answered with a big smile on his face, but more like an evil smile. His visage is different from Helios. At first, you'll not think that he's involved or he's the person behind the killings happening in this world. One look and he can deceive you.

He snapped his fingers in front of Helios. "Have you heard about that Yerin girl?"

"Yes, my Lord. But may I ask if what will you do to her?" Helios' voice didn't change, it's still deep and grim.

His Lord gave him a stern look and leaned closer. "My daughter wants to get rid of her." He smirked which made Helios feel a sudden elation. Indeed, killing someone satisfies them.

"Alright, I'll take care of everything, my Lord. And this time, I promise it'll be a success." Helios bowed to him and was about to leave when his Lord suddenly spoke.
