A young man lay in a hospital bed staring at the ceiling of the recovery room. The physical pain from the injuries caused by driving into a power pole was incomparable to the pain he was feeling in his heart right then. The bitter truth that he had come to face made his chest almost burn with anger, envy and resentment towards the person who deceived his trust and feelings for whom he had poured his heart out as he thought that the person also bore the same feelings for him. But it turned out to be a big lie.

“What happened, Case? Why are you hurt like this?” A familiar voice sounded as a tall figure entered the hospital recovery room causing Case who was lying on the sick bed to turn to look at the person who was his real brother. The person who had also contributed to him ending up in his current state because the person he had poured his feelings into told him that he did not love him, but his brother causing Case to feel equally offended by his own brother as well.  He was so disappointed and envious that he forgot to think about the cause and effect of his actions. Needless to say that Case was very angry with that person who broke his heart. Enough to not want that person to be happy with his brother as well.

"Brother Ken, huh! Why did he do this to me?" Case said in a trembling voice. He knew very well how much his brother loved him so he decided to use his brother's love to take revenge on that person.

"Uh, let me go find Stone first," said his brother's friend and walked out of the recovery room

"Who did what? Tell me," his older
brother, Ken, asked tensely

“Brother Fang. He doesn't love me... he deceived me. He did everything for his own benefit,” Case mentioned that person as his heart filled with real pain and agony.

“Tell me about it, Case. Tell me all about it," Ken said in a deep voice. Case then told his brother how he was being tricked by Fang to fall in love just because Fang wanted his money. Of course, Case mixed his own bitterness into the story to instigate Ken into hating Fang because he didn't want his brother to go to fall for Fang like him. Case didn't mention the fact that Fang likes Ken. Case thought that Fang would definitely find another way to pursue Ken. So he had to cut off the wind before it brew into a love storm. And it seemed that his brother was as angry at Fang as he wanted.

“So what's the deal about that money?” Ken asked in a deep voice. Case was a little silent.

“I'm sorry Phi Ken...because I trusted him. So I didn't make a contract with him as you told me. Finally, he tricked me out of my money. I'm sorry..and I'll pay it back to you myself," Case said in a low voice. He wanted Ken to hate Fang so much that his brother would even feel disgusted to breathe the same air as Fang.

“No need. Who took it, must be the person who returns it. In addition, the 3 hundred thousand money makes you know the nature of people faster. It's better than not knowing anything at all and blindly believing them forever," Ken said angrily. He was angry with
his brother but he was even more
angry with Fang.

“Take it as a lesson this time, Remember, when you are with someone, observe the person. Nowadays, people like to wear masks. There are a lot of money-hungry bastards like him. But You don't have to worry. I'll find a way to get it back myself," Ken said, reassuring Case that his brother wouldn't easily believe in Fang.

Case had already spent two days in the hospital. His brother would come to visit him and ask the nurse about his updates. Case, now, lay watching TV in the recovery room alone when the sound of the door opening made him turn to look in that direction. He stopped frozen when he saw the person who came to visit him was Fang.

"Why are you here?" Case asked in a harsh tone when he saw Fang, the one who had hurt him, walk into his recovery room

“I came to know from P' Mew that you're in the hospital. Phi Mew has sent something for you," Fang said as he placed the souvenir on the table. Fang did not dare to walk too close to Case.
