Selina gulped as she stood in front of Samuel's apartment door. She was wearing a white oversized hoodie, white shorts, her usual red ankle high converse shoes, and a white cap that has two rings on it. She also was wearing her glass framed glasses.

Her palms felt clammy, sweaty as she tried ringing the bell. It didn't feel right using the keycard he gave her, even after her paid break.

Samuel opened the door with an indifferent face. Selina was caught off guard as she saw his tattooed chest in front of her, and had to hold herself from looking downward as he was only in his underwear. His hair was down, which Selina secretly liked.

"What are you, an exhibitionist?!" She complained as she closed her eyes with her hand, feeling blood rise to her face.

"It's my place so I'm free to do what I want." Samuel commented. "Come in."

He opened the door and stepped aside to let her in. Selina grumpily put her hand back down as she glared at his face. He had a cigarette stick in his mouth, and based on the smell of his apartment, he had been smoking freely since she had been gone.

"Ugh, this place reeks..." She scrunched her nose in distate as she sat on his sofa. Samuel put down the cigarette in his mouth and stared at her incredulously. Selina gulped and looked away.

"Ah, sorry..."

He sat down on the sofa next to her, leaned back, and crossed his arms.

"You worked for me for around 3 weeks and didn't have the mind to tell me that you knew Jake Kim?" He eerily said with a smile.

"In my defense, I didn't know you know him." Selina defended herself.

"Is the one you've been helping him?" Samuel interrogated. Selina sighed.

"Yes."

"What did he ask you to do?"

"Find Sinu Han." Selina answered simply.

"You're oddly very compliant to this questioning."

"I expect you to be too when I start asking you questions," It was her turn now to cross her arms and interrogate.

"Fine. Go on."

"One, how do you know Jake Kim? Two, what was the mindmap on the secret hideout about? Three, Why did you not tell Eugene about my contract to you?" She said all at once.

"You're very straight to the point. Fine, I'll answer all of it if I can smoke." Samuel took his cigarette and light it up, not waiting for her answer.

Selina cringed as he blew smoke.

"One, I've known Jake since my Big Deal days--"

"You were a member of Big Deal?" Selina said surprised.

"Don't cut me off. And yes, I was. I went to Gangnam after leaving. Two, that mindmap is my path to become king. Three, Eugene doesn't need to know about everything going on."

"You're planning to become king... Hm..." Selina noted as Samuel stood up to take a bottle of wine and two glasses. He sat back down again and poured it for them.

"My turn to ask again. If you know Goo, then do you know Gun?" He asked with a sour face.

"Of course. I've known Gun first before Goo." Selina took a sip of wine.

"Oh? And how did you two know each other?"

"We fought around 3 years ago, and somehow met again by chance." She shrugged.
