“When are you gonna stop doing this!” Seonwoo exclaimed all the while getting into the car.

“Never,” Riki said and as if to tease Seonwoo more, he honked again.

“You're such an asshole,” Seonwoo rolled his eyes.

“Just buckle your seatbelt so we can go,” Riki rolled his eyes back, “You're always moving too slow.”

Seonwoo didn't even try to talk back, or else this conversation would not end.

Silence surround them as Riki drove into the same road, speed going past the limit. As usual, Riki calculated the time perfectly and they stopped exactly at the playground's entrance.

“Are you sure you're ready to go back to work?” Seonwoo couldn't help but ask.

Last night, Riki was only having a mental breakdown. It's impossible for him to act this fine in just three days. But of course, Seonwoo knew it was all just pretending.

“Got a big mission to prepare with,” Riki shrugged.

Seonwoo only looked at Riki with curious eyes. He really wanted to ask what kind of missions they were, but he's controlling himself.

“I was trained to be a bait for actual meetings. I go face to face with the clients and suppliers, risking all of myself, like Hanbin-hyung's job. I was the target of shooters, agents and just everyone in the site,” Riki explained.

“Hanbin-hyung...?” Seonwoo asked.

He saw how Riki gulped. His eyes getting glossy again, but Riki only blinked the tears away before he started driving.

“Mhm,” Riki hums.

“Are you like, drug dealers?” Seonwoo asked.

Riki couldn't help but break into a smile, and then laugh. He looked at Seonwoo for a second before laughing again.

“Yah, what's so funny?” Seonwoo asked, getting annoyed.

“We don't deal with drugs, Seonwoo, it's much more illegal than that,” Riki then said, in between his laughs. “Drugs are for petty business dealers only.”

“Then what kind of dealers are you?” Seonwoo asked.

“Stolen treasures worth millions of dollars, buy and sell.”

Seonwoo couldn't respond.

He doesn't know something like that exist in real life.

“What?” Riki asked, “Are you suddenly regretting being the chairman's secretary?”

Seonwoo quickly shook his head.

“I'm just...amazed, is all.”

Riki laughs again.

“There's nothing to be amaze at all, Seonwoo. We're just law breakers hiding behind a facade of a successful business man.”
