It was so... pitiful. Watching a murderer cry and beg to be spared. To watch him act like this knowing that his victims probably did the same. Oh, How the tables have turned.

Alexander Richmond, a murderer who would stalk their victims for around a month before eventually kidnapping them and killing them. A total of 23 innocent victims whom he 'fell in love with', the majority was male but there were a handful of females in the mix. The worst part is they all had loving families, a husband or wife, and children. It made them feel sick.

"God this dude is the worst. He fell in love with married people? What kind of sick fetish is that." Mingi said disgusted as he read the file they had on the male. He sat on a large crate as he continued to read the file out loud for the other two to hear. Yunho looked at the guy with complete disgust on his face. "It just keeps getting worse and worse for you dude," Yunho softly spoke, he looked like he was on the verge of throwing up.

The male just kept rambling on and on causing Wooyoung to let out a groan before pulling out his gun. He aimed it at the male which caused him to panic even more and squirm in the chair he was tied to. "God this bitch doesn't know how to stay still," Wooyoung said as he put his gun away, he didn't want to bother with having to go closer to this sicko, so he gestured for Yunho to go ahead and take the kill. This caused the older to smile before making his way towards the back of the tied-up male. Yunho grabbed the top of his head forcing him to stay still before slitting his throat open with his knife.

Yunho backed away from the now dying male while Mingi lit a cigarette passing one to Wooyoung which he gladly took. Blood poured down the slit on the male's neck, he tried gasping yet all he ended up doing was gargling the blood that filled his mouth. Wooyoung watched in disgust and amusement as within a minute the male was dead. His cheeks were stained with tears and his eyes were now completely lifeless.

"Gross, his blood is getting all over the place," Mingi said as he threw his cigarette on the ground making sure to step on it as he walked over to the male. In order to prevent the blood from getting on Mingi's clothing he wrapped his bleeding neck with a cloth. He proceeded to untie the dead male from his restraints making sure to catch his limp body. Using his strength he threw the dead male over his shoulder and carried him out of the warehouse.

Yunho cleaned his knife and Wooyoung finished his cigarette before starting to clean up their mess. Yunho joined and they both sanitized every surface that was covered in blood. The chemicals from the products filled the air making them a little dizzy as they cleaned. After they made sure that all the traces of them and their crime were gone they exited the warehouse they were in.

When they walked out the cold wind hit them, it was already dark outside meaning the stars were out. A small smile made its way onto Wooyoung's face as he admired the beautiful starry sky. He remembered what he said to San that one day and he couldn't help but wonder. Had San ever looked at the sky like Wooyoung suggested?

Mingi who was leaning against their car noticed this and looked over at Yunho who also seemed to notice. Both males knew what Wooyoung was going through, and although Wooyoung was very persistent on not sharing personal stuff when they first met they managed to crack him. Wooyoung needed someone to talk to, and although there were so many times that he wanted to spill the truth about his childhood and mental issues to San and the others he was scared. He didn't want them to see him as a monster just like how he viewed his father so he kept it in.

Since he kept his feelings in since he was nine when Yunho and Mingi finally got him to spill it helped strengthen their friendship. It was hard for the two older males to listen to Wooyoung open up. He had been neglected by his mother up until she died in a house fire when Wooyoung was six. Then he was forced to live in constant fear with his mentally insane father who killed so many people before eventually killing his father himself. After he started to have issues... hallucinations of his dead parents along with constant nightmares every single night to the point he couldn't fall asleep. Soon he started to overthink everything, he felt like he was going insane yet he kept a happy and normal facade up. Every time he would feel like this he would end up harming himself. He distracted himself with pain as he watched blood drip from his thighs and onto the bathroom floor.

Somedays he just wanted to stay in bed or end it all but he didn't, he kept pushing himself so that his friends didn't have to worry. Soon that all started to get better as he started taking medication his doctor prescribed to him. Prazosin helped with his nightmares and sleeping pills helped with the insomnia, he took antipsychotics to help with the hallucinations, and Citalopram to help with his depression. Although there were still days he felt like ending it all things got slightly better except for his overthinking.

Then things really spiraled, and he started getting the letters which caused him to feel even worse. Every letter he would read would break him down bit by bit and eventually, he figured out who wrote the letters and who was sending them. It was on complete accident but one day when Ji-yoo was hovering around San she wrote something down on a piece of paper. Wooyoung then managed to connect the fact that her handwriting and the handwriting on the letters were the exact same. Then he figured out who sent them, on San's 16th birthday a man wearing all black approached him, this was the first time someone delivered the letters personally. It was a good friend of San's mother whom he saw sometimes, he first thought that he worked for Ji-yoos family but that idea got shut down instantly. He remembered that this friend would only do tasks for San's mother since they had been friends since middle school. That could only mean one thing,  San's mother most likely hired this friend to deliver the letters...

This is what broke him, he knew that even though San and his mother got into disagreements often he still cherished her, after all, she was his mother. Wooyoung was finally gaining the courage to tell San about the letters but it was all demolished within a second. He tried to convince himself that she didn't have anything to do with it but the more he thought about it the more it made sense. Wooyoung was faced with three options. One was to Stay with San and be silent about the notes, the second was to lie about the fact he didn't know who sent the notes and hope San didn't find out, and finally the last option ruin San's relationship with his mother.

He didn't know what to do but then another opinion came up.
You are the reason this is all happening so... if you remove yourself then this would all stop. Right? That's what you were going to do anyway so why not do it sooner?  That's when he really realized that if he left then San would continue to have a relationship with his mother and he wouldn't have to constantly worry about Wooyoung. Although it would be devastating for him to leave San, Seonghwa, Hongjoong, Yeosang, Jongho, and all the other people he cherished he didn't want them to worry. If he left then they would all be free from him. After all, he was just a burden.
