"Oh no, this is hopeless" Riki picked up the broken piece of metal and showed it to Sunoo.

"Oh- well that's broken I guess" he sighed and took it. "It was new.. but it's okay!" Sunoo smiled at Riki as his eyes fell on a white piece of paper on the floor.

"There's still a souvenir from the camera after all!" The smiling boy said and picked up the Polaroid picture.

Riki stepped next to him and smiled widely.

"It's the bridge!"he said happily and Sunoo nodded.

"Not only the bridge. You can see both of our hands. It's when you knocked me over earlier!"

"You're right! That's a souvenir of our first meeting!"

Sunoo smiled at the picture. A first souvenir from the first meeting with his first and only friend. That's another kind of special.

"I'll keep it right here" Sunoo spoke, taking out his cellphone and sliding it behind his phone case.

He slightly flinched seeing Riki's hand wandering to Sunoo's ear, clipping off one of his earrings.

"Like this we both have something" Riki smiled and Sunoo nodded happily.

"Riki let's go now, before someone sees us" they both heard Yeonjun's voice and Riki's smile disappeared slowly.

"I guess it's time to leave.." he said and Sunoo nodded slowly. "Yes my parents are probably wondering where I am too.. but Riki-" as Sunoo looked back up his heart started to feel heavy. He was gone. He should have asked for his number earlier..

"I hope I'll see you soon.. my friend"

"Hello darling, did you sleep well?"

Sunoo's mother quickly kisses her son's forehead and sat down at the table.

"Yes eomma" he smiled and bit in his sandwich as his phone suddenly vibrates.

Surprised he turned the display around, seeing a text from an unknown number.

Seoul, red bridge. 10:30.

"Eomma? I'll go get dressed okay, I wanna go out today" he said, getting up from the chair as his mother just nods.

"Have fun baby, be careful and don't talk to strangers!

10:29. Sunoo nervously played with his fingers, looking around in hopes to see a familiar face.

"GOTCHA" a loud voice and a tight grip around his waist was all Sunoo needed to be reassured. Riki.

"So that's your number?" Sunoo asked and turned around to the younger one who just smiled shyly.

"I wanted it to be a surprise. Else I would have added my name to the text"

Sunoo smiled and nodded as his gaze fell on Riki's ear.

"Did you really make a hole in one ear just to wear my earring?"

"Yep!"

Again, Sunoo's cheeks started taking a slightly pink color, causing him to turn his head.

"A-Anyways why did you call for me?"

"I want to spend time with my friend" Riki took his hand.

"Come on I have a surprise for you!" Before Sunoo even could answer something he got pulled with Riki.

Again he saw the familiar old building in which Riki was living, but he didn't had much time to look around since Riki made both of them burst through the building.

"Sunoo?" Yeonjun looked up and watched the two boys run past him.

"Good morning Jun-" Sunoo yelled , making Yeonjun chuckle slightly.

"These teenagers.." he hummed and concentrated back on work.

"Riki where are you bringing m-"
"We're here" the younger one interrupted him, opening a big metal door.

"Where are we?" Sunoo asked, looking around but Riki was gone. Nervous he started to play with his bracelet , standing in the huge dark room on his own when suddenly the lights lit up.

"Are those weapons?" He asked confused, looking at the shelves, filled with huge guns.

"Only paintball guns, I don't have the right to play with the real ones" Riki said, reaching Sunoo some kind of uniform.

"Did you play this already?" The younger boy asked but Sunoo shook his head.

"My parents keep any kind of weapons away from me, except those boring kitchen knifes"

"Your parents are weird, weapons are the best! It's really easy, look" Riki took two random black guns out of the shelve, standing closer to Sunoo and giving him one of them.

"Hold it like that. No no" Riki softly lifted up Sunoo's arm a bit, positioning his fingers right and pushing his feet away from each other.

"Like that, that's the right position to shoot. Now you have to pull this down, that's how you load the gun, to shoot you have to pull there with your finger and then it shou-" a loud noise interrupted Riki's explanations.

Sunoo shot.

"Was that me?"
"Yes! You shot!"

Sunoo's gaze fell back on the gun.

"That felt... good"

"I know right ! Now put the uniform on, we gonna battle!" Riki smiled at him, playfully holding the gun against Sunoo's head who chuckled at him.

"Shoot me if you can!"
