The boy slowly places flowers on the grave of his father as he bends down.

On the verge of tears, he sniffles and vomits all the emotions filling him up by his throat.

"Dad it's been a week, but I can't believe you're not here anymore. I...I miss you t-terribly.."

He shrunk more, his arms engulfing his body as he shivered in the chilly breeze.

He kept on rambling for an hour. Pouring all the sadness out.

He then laughs at how he could feel his father's presence while talking even though he wasn't there.

He unfolds his knees, dabbing the tears away with a handkerchief.

He retraces his steps back to his car, turning the engine on as his hand guides the steering.

He soon reached home. Was it home now that he was the only one there and his father wasn't?

No. It wasn't home.

He clips the seatbelt off as he gets out, locking the car behind him.

"Jisung!"

Jisung turns when his name is heard. His lips curve up a bit when he sees a blond boy jumping towards him.

The blondie greets him with a generous hug, aware of how Jisung was suffering from his father's death.

"Felix, I'm sorry. You called several times but I—"

"We're besties. I know you inside-out, it's okay! If you don't mind, could we hang out at your place now?"

"Sure. I'd love to."

The boys jog to the house as Jisung unlocks the door with a creak letting Felix in.

He and Felix were childhood best friends.

No friendship like theirs, since they were inseparable and understood each other better than anyone else—even themselves.

Felix makes his way to the kitchen and opens the refrigerator to see it almost empty with nothing but water bottles.

He then, rips open all the cabinets in curiosity, eyes getting big at the deserted kitchen.

'He hasn't been eating.'

"Hey! Where are your snacks? Why's there no food in here? Don't tell me you haven't had anything the whole week!"

"I did eat at the convenience store, didn't bring anything....home..."

Felix averts his eyes feeling bad at how Jisung isolated himself from everything after the tragedy.

He tries to lighten the mood like the cheerful friend he is. He smiles and sails onto Jisung's back.

"Let's go buy some snacks then, We'll have a sleepover, like old times!"

"Fine."

Jisung piggybacks him as he adores Felix's radiant and stress-free aura. It makes him feel better.

The besties again queue up to the grocery store and then some shopping to enjoy themselves.

Jisung already was bursting into hearty laughter, forgetting the misery—that made Felix really relieved.

"So he has a son, whom you didn't kill and he also saw your face and lost your ring."

The man nods, face hanging down in fear as he shook at the tone of the voice.

Minho wraps his hand in a napkin before he lunges forward in a dash.

His hand making contact with the man's face as his nose dripped out blood.

The man falls back with a thud as his hand flew to his nose, fingers touching the wet liquid.

He puts his arms up in defense when another fist collides with his face.

Minho grunts as he kicks the chair beside the table where he stood making it drop to the ground.

The man flinches hearing the thumping of his heart in the silence.

"Well go away, I'll deal with him. Now go!"

Changbin rushes the limping man out of the office door as Minho runs his hand across his face, frustrated.

"You....calm down first. He made a mistake but he's one of our best men. Also has a lot of our secrets."

"So? He wouldn't dare to rat us out, or I'll personally kill him!"

Minho tosses the stained napkin away as he settles in his chair, drawing deep breaths in.

"What should we do about Han's son?"

"Get them on the system and tell them to bring me everything about him."

"Alright."

Changbin nods and exits the room heading to the cyber station of their office where all the hackers were.

"Seungmin?"

A young boy with neat bangs and silver rimmed glasses frowns at the interruption in his work.

"What?"

"Boss wants you to decipher this code and also wants all info regarding Han's son."

"Han Jiwon? The officer?"

Seungmin questions as he reviews a code written on the paper chit handed to him.

Changbin hums as Seungmin speedily clicks on the keys, screens switching between each other as a message appears on it.

"Here I deciphered the code. Now let me look into Han's matter. I didn't know he had a son."

Changbin was stunned at Seungmin's skills as he catches the paper chit with the deciphered code.

"Hmm... That's weird, there's no info about Han's son. Infact, the system says he doesn't have kids."

Changbin knits his brows, baffled as his eyes roam over the bio-data of the officer.

"It does say so. But Joseph said he'd seen Han's kid and he left him unattended."

"What if that wasn't his son? It could've been someone else."

"Not really. Joseph said the boy kept calling Han 'dad'. "

Seungmin rubs his nape unable to help as he hollers back into his work.

Changbin bolts back into Minho's office to inform him of the finding.

He speaks before adding an apology as he entered without knocking. Something Minho loathed.

"Here's the code, Seungmin tried to retrieve information about Han's son but..."

"But?"

"It shows that Han doesn't have one."
