Huening Kai was sitting on the edge of the bed in his bedroom, going through Soobin's things and leafing through the pages of all the notebooks he'd find until he finally found the one he was looking for_ a notebook filled with a bunch of necessary numbers.

The blonde guy quickly skimmed over the pages which almost took him five minutes until he saw the number he needed the most, his eyes immediately brightening up with determination. He knew exactly what he had to do. Now that he had that number the whole power was in his hands, but soon enough his thoughts were interrupted by his phone when it suddenly rang. He looked down at the screen, more excitement arising in his elated eyes when he read Jae's name on it.

"Yes?", he answered abruptly, his heart beating loudly in anticipation.

"I've found the location. Write it down", Jae said calmly while Huening Kai nodded frantically, writing down the information furiously.

When he was done, he grabbed the notebook once again and dialled a certain number before pressing the call button. A woman picked up after only two rings, her voice greeting him warmly.

"Ciao. Questa è Alice della clinica Healthywing. Come posso aiutarti?"

Huening Kai couldn't understand even a word from her question, but he needed to talk to her desperately, so he decided to speak in English hoping she would understand.

"Hi! Can your boss come to the phone, please?"

There was a moment of silence on the other side before the woman finally replied, "I'll direct you to him", she returned the answer in English, making the boy feel excitement flow through him.

"Thank you"

Huening Kai had to wait for a couple of minutes before he heard the male voice speak to him in English as well, greeting him in a curious tone, "Hello?"

"Hello... Am I taking to Greco Lorenzo?"

"Yes", the man said with an authority in his voice, his tone firm and arrogant.

"I've got important information regarding Kang Taehyun"

"What do you know about him?", his voice was laced with suspicion.

"I know where he is right now with Choi Beomgyu and his daughter", Huening Kai announced confidently, not wanting to beat around the bush.

"Why should trust you?"

Huening Kai's eyes got filled with hatred and rage at that, his hand tightening around his phone which made his knuckles turn white, "Because they hurt the only person I loved...", he gritted his teeth, "I need to settle accounts with Choi Beomgyu, but I can't do it without your help..."

                               

The airport was very crowded, the people walking past each other constantly bumping into each other. The airport was also very loud with the constant clapping and whistling sounds coming out of all directions, making the crowd look like a swarm of bees that had been let loose. The noise made Beomgyu even more agitated as he held his daughter's hand and rushed towards their destination while holding the bags with another, trying to ignore the unbearable pain in his chest.

Why did it have to be today? When everything was going to be okay why were they messing up their life again? What was he supposed to do if Taehyun couldn't make it to the airport? How was he supposed to leave without him?

Tears burnt his eyes as he tried to push those thoughts away, pushing them deep inside his mind where they would never come out. However, Eunji still managed to notice the anguish on the boy's face as she looked up at him with big curious eyes, wondering why her dad suddenly looked so sad.
