One Task

04: Task

The car ride was awkward and the silence is simply too loud. Yejun found himself sitting on the back seat of the car while the two person who had just detained him is in the front. Donghyun driving and Kunwoo on the passenger. Honestly speaking, Yejun is uncomfortable to the point he wanted to puke.

They drove past the civilization he was kept away from a week ago. Oh how he have missed freedom, only to be under someone's orders again. His weapons are distanced away from him for obvious reasons.

The three of them are on their way to Donghyun's apartment since Yejun will be staying there temporarily. The former is afraid of what might happen to him due to Yejun being in his care.

Kunwoo decided on that, he thinks that it's rational in a way it'll help the criminal adjust in the system. He trusts that Donghyun will keep Yejun under surveillance. Kunwoo is certain that nothing bad will happen.

"Made up your mind?"

"Yeah. Get me out of here." He then recalled the what comes next,

"How can we make sure you're not deceiving us?"

"I don't really care about what happens next anymore. I don't wanna rot in here or in prison, I might as well take your offer. Rest assured, I'm not gonna do something funny. It's futile." Kunwoo could of never imagined that a person like Yejun himself is able to declare something like that. There's something about his eyes, expression, and tone when he said it. He could've never thought that someone like him could sound and look so sincere.

"We're almost there." Donghyun informed them as he maneuvers the wheel.

Kunwoo looked back in order to meet eyes with Yejun, "It's already late. Take a bath, get some rest, and be prepared for tomorrow as I'll teach you the basics of your future job. You'll be a professional so you might as well learn how to act like one."

The latter remained silent and kept the blank look on his face. He loathe the idea of working under someone, just the thought of it will be able to drive him insane. He's starting to regret his decision this early. But hey, fuck it, everything in order to be free.

"Gotcha." Yejun simply replied.

Kunwoo is feeling delighted seeing that a potential killing machine is now being cooperative with him, "I'll have you meet the boss soon enough. A good impression in required."

"I get it." Yejun heaved out a sigh getting tired of the big man's continues rambling. However, as he was feeling like that, he suddenly realized, "Oh... isn't education and background checking also required?"

He started to doubt, "Are you fucking with me, telling me you'll assign me a job, but what'll really happen is you'll turn me over to the authorities?"

"Rest assured. I can change that." Kunwoo reassured Yejun as the heavy feeling of doubt started to lift off of his chest. The criminal didn't know why, but he starts to feel like he could trust the big guy. How amusing, especially after what happened on that night of the attack.

The car stopped right in front of a gate, Donghyun announcing that they've already arrived at their destination "We're here."

The three men stepped out of the vehicle and headed inside the houses, they're led by Donghyun who is the owner of the property.

Getting inside, they were greeted by the welcoming aura of the place. It looks well taken care off seeing how the property have no such things scattered around everywhere, no foul scent could be smell, just the overall of it is amazing. Cleanliness is one thing this house possesses.

Despite living alone, Donghyun managed to take care of his place well. He welcomed the two to his home as they then get themselves comfortable.

It didn't take a while and Kunwoo then instructed Yejun that he should now clean himself and prepare to rest as he will now leave soon to get home to his family. Even though they visit regularly at the hospital he was in, it felt as if it's been a while since he has seen them. Probably due to the setting of their gathering.
