Chapter 13 | S1: Danger

Sunghoon's POV

"So... some random guy came up and offered you a modelling career?" Taehyun leaned back in his chair, raising an eyebrow at me with a sly grin.

"Yes, Taehyun, that's exactly what happened, he said it can make me popular and successful." I replied, fidgeting with my pen.

"Hm... Seems legit." He chuckled, his tone dripping with sarcasm.

I shot him a glare. "Look, I know it sounds weird, but it's true. They gave me their card and everything."

Taehyun's grin widened. "Oh, a card! Well, that changes everything. Must be a legit offer then."

I clenched my fists, trying to keep my frustration in check. "Come on, Taehyun. I know it's hard to believe, but I have a feeling about this."

He leaned forward, his teasing expression turning more serious. "Sunghoon, you can't seriously be considering this, right? It could be some kind of scam. You need to be careful."

I could feel my temper rising, a mix of anger and uncertainty swirling within me. "You think I don't know that? But what if it's not? What if this is a real opportunity?"

Taehyun held up his hands in mock surrender. "Hey, I'm just looking out for you. If you're sure about this, then go for it. Just be cautious, okay?"

I took a deep breath, trying to rein in my emotions. "Well, I need to take risks sometimes. I can't keep living the same old routine forever."

He sighed, his expression softening. "I get it, Sunghoon. And I'll support you no matter what you decide. Just promise me you'll be careful, okay? You know you're like a brother to me."

I nodded, the tension between us easing slightly. "I will. Thanks, Taehyun."

He grinned, his teasing demeanor returning. "Alright, alright. Just don't come crying to me if they end up selling your kidney in an auction, okay?"

Our teacher then arrived at the classroom, I rolled my eyes, but there was a hint of a smile on my lips. "Deal. Now, let's drop this topic before I actually do start crying." I whispered.

We both laughed, the tension dissipating further. Deep down, I knew Taehyun had a point, and his concern was genuine. But there was something inside me that was driving me to pursue this opportunity, to take a chance and see where it would lead.

After class, I was about to hop on my bicycle to go home when I heard Taehyun screaming my name. "Sunghoon! Open your fucking phone!"

He was catching his breath and was holdinh his knees. "What? Wh-"

"RIGHT NOW!" He screamed and I just did what he said, "Okay so...? What now?"

"Search... Lee Heeseung wife, faster!" W-What...? Why would he want me to search that guy's name?

I typed his name into the internet and-

W-Wait what...? No... Why is this shit here? "M-Maybe it's a different person..."

"Sunghoon, no." Taehyun took his phone out and showed me a picture... of Sunoo and Heeseung together...
