A bucket filled with cold icy water splashes to Mr. Shim, he wakes up immediately, gasping, looking at his surroundings. He was tied in a chair, his body hurts like hell.

He looks towards to the man who'd splashed him with water, "Hello, Mr. Shim. Beautiful day isn't it?" Siho was amused to the man's state, he throws the bucket elsewhere and comes closer to him

"I have so many questions in mind, Mr. Shim. But of course you'll just shut your tiny mouth" he shrugs and circles around him. "Father should've look more to your background information before hiring you, who knew you were a fucking fraud worker to the parks"

"I'm going to put all of you in jail just you wait!" Mr. Shim shouts to them, clenching his teeth so hard. "Oh no, no, no Mr. Shim, you'll be dead before you can put us in jail" he shook his head and puts his gaze to his sister.

"You assholes! I swear to god, every each and one of you hongs will die! Die-"

"Shut up, if you don't want a death wish" sihye interrupts, smacking his head hardly making him groan. "Now, now, sister, let the guards handle him. We have a lot to do with the parks and kims still" siho pulls his sister's hand away from mr. Shim, glancing to the guards at the corner watching them

"Before we leave" siho goes closer to mr. Shim, whispering something. "Mr. Yang would really like to see his co-worker die" smirking widely, a man comes in the basement in a suit

Mr. Yang, was one of the coaches back then with mr. Shim. They were fond to the Parks, Kims and Hong's children and personally teach them to skate gracefully. He soon resigned suddenly after Seokyong's death and disappeared mid air. But why is he here? Right now? Mr. Shim thought

"What a pleasant surprise to see you again Jaereum" Mr. Yang greets, "Mr. Yang here helped us so much, he even deleted the CCTV footages of Seokyong drowning" siho laughs off, "We will go now. Mr. Yang you can leave any time, after that let the guards play with him" he waves, leaving. While Sihye stood there watching the whole scene.

"Thanks to them, i got to pursue my dreams of becoming a editor. For the whole evil forces of hong company" Mr. Yang smiles while Jaereum wasn't amuse nor happy about anything he's saying. How could a friend do this to you? To someone?

"Editor Yang Dongi of Phonto Enterprises" the mid age man nods in satisfaction to his deeds. "Sorry to say, only i will be successful. You.... you will die" pouting sarcastically as he waves good bye with sihye, leaving mr. Shim with guards behind

They started to kick and punch him, as he tried to free himself out of the chair. He felt weak and no use, groaning and sighing in defeat, he watched himself loosely die.

Seohyun has been ignoring and avoiding sunghoon all day at school. She wasn't too sure if that was just a dream or a foreshadow of the future. She never knew, but all she could do was to avoid him, for his own good, right (?)

It was already dismissals, Seohyun hurriedly got out of the school, she sighs before scurrying to the bus stop when someone pulled her arm. "Seohyun" the person calls, she gulps nervously and faces the person

No words were able to form out of her mouth, the boy just looked at her worriedly waiting for her to say something. "Do you have any problems again?" He asks slowly as seohyun looks down embarrassed, he pulls her into a hug

"You can tell me.... I'm here..."

They both stood there at han bridge, the sun was about to set, it was pretty and emotional at the same time. They both stayed quiet, waiting for the other to speak

"Why were you ignoring me all day?" Sunghoon spoke softly, continuing to fix his gaze to the view. "I..... Well...." Seohyun couldn't form any right words and just stayed quiet again

"Is it about Mr. Shim again?" He now looks at her, brows furrowed in curiosity. He sighs when she didn't answer again, "It wasn't your fault seohyun.... And for what mom said she doesn't mean any of those, i promise...."

"I... I saw him and Seokyong yesterday night, they were telling me.... You're next...." She sniffs the liquid back to her nose as her eyes were all teary, "They told me... You'll die next if.... i c-continue to be with you..." She tightens her grip to railings, sobbing quietly

"I don't want you to die sunghoon, you're the only one i have left. I couldn't bare loosing you too" the two made eye contact, a tear falls down to sunghoon's cheek, resembling he was crying too

"They kept whispering to me you'll die and it'll be my fault. I want to ignore it because it's just me hallucinating again b-but.. it felt so real..." Her voice lowers and lowers as she speaks, she swallows the lump in her throat.

Sunghoon was about to approach her for a hug but she steps away, shaking her head. "I'm just a misfortune, don't come near me" sunghoon nods and take steps away for space.

"Misfortune or not, I'm willing to be with you. Everytime. Everywhere. Just to see you happy" sunghoon mutters bitterly to her, a glimpse of happiness was present between them but it soon faded away when he spoke again;

"But if it means staying away because of you and your trauma. Then i will wait" he held her hand to his, intertwining their fingers. They look at each other pity all over their faces, tears in their eyes

"I want you to be happy and find a way to let go of your trauma, okay? Don't hurt yourself" the smile he wears shakily fades as seohyun silently felt guilty. She wants him to be happy too, them to be happy

"Can we... End this after sunset?" Seohyun mutters in request, sunghoon nods slowly, continuing to watch the sun;

They both watched the sunset fully go down. The clouds were all orange and yellow, it was magnificent to the sight

Sunsets signifies us that everything has an ending. No matter how hard you try, it still ends. Maybe it has to come a stop that they should too, in their relationship. For the sake of their lives.

"The sun will rise back once again... Our memories together remains in my heart and so do you... But for now...." Sunghoon discontinues his own sentence, taking a deep breath and trying to come himself down from crying too much;

"Kim seohyun..... Let's break up"
