"When Loves Started"..

part-16

Joon Woo quickly dialed Beom Seok's number, but it went straight to voicemail. He tried again and again, but Beom Seok wasn't answering.

Eun Ae paced back and forth in the room, feeling anxious and scared. "What if he does something stupid?" she asked Joon Woo. "What if he gets hurt?"

Joon Woo tried to reassure her. "Beom Seok's a smart guy, he won't do anything reckless. He's just trying to protect you."

But Eun Ae knew Beom Seok's temper and determination. She knew he wouldn't back down until he had taken care of Tae Ho.

Just then, Joon Woo's phone buzzed with an incoming text. He looked at the screen and his eyes widened in shock.

"What is it?" Eun Ae asked, feeling her heart racing.

Joon Woo looked up at her. "It's Beom Seok. He says he's found Tae Ho and he's going to take care of him once and for all."

Eun Ae's eyes widened in alarm. "We have to stop him, Joon Woo! We can't let him confront Tae Ho alone!"

Joon Woo nodded in agreement. "I'll go after him, try to calm him down. You stay here and stay safe."

But Eun Ae was already grabbing her bag and heading for the door. "No way, I'm coming with you. We have to stop Beom Seok before it's too late!"

Joon Woo sighed but knew better than to argue with Eun Ae when she was determined. Together, they rushed out of the house and into the night, racing against time to find Beom Seok and prevent a disaster.

As they sped through the streets, Eun Ae's phone buzzed with another text from Beom Seok. "I've got him cornered," it read. "Don't worry, I've got this."

Eun Ae's heart sank. They were running out of time.

Eun Ae and Joon Woo arrived at the location Beom Seok had sent them, a deserted alleyway on the outskirts of town. They could hear raised voices and the sound of scuffling coming from the end of the alley.

As they rushed towards the noise, they saw Beom Seok pinning Tae Ho against the wall, his fists clenched and his eyes blazing with anger.

"Beom Seok, stop!" Eun Ae cried, rushing towards them. "Don't do this!"

But Beom Seok didn't seem to hear her. He was too far gone, consumed by his rage and desire for revenge.

Tae Ho, on the other hand, was smirking, seemingly enjoying the situation. "You'll never be able to protect her," he sneered at Beom Seok. "She's mine."

Beom Seok's eyes flashed with fury, and he raised his fist to strike. Eun Ae knew she had to act fast to prevent a disaster.

Eun Ae grabbed Beom Seok's arm, trying to hold him back. "Beom Seok, don't! Please don't do this!"

Beom Seok tried to shake her off, but Eun Ae held tight. Joon Woo stepped forward, placing a hand on Beom Seok's shoulder.

"Beom Seok, listen to her. This isn't the way to handle it," Joon Woo said calmly.

Slowly, Beom Seok's rage began to fade, replaced by a mix of emotions. He looked at Eun Ae, then at Joon Woo, and finally at Tae Ho, who was still smirking at him.

With a sudden movement, Beom Seok pushed Tae Ho away and turned to Eun Ae. "I'm sorry," he said, his voice shaking. "I wasn't thinking. I just wanted to protect you."

Eun Ae's heart went out to him. She knew he had acted out of love and concern for her. She hugged him tightly. "I know, Beom Seok. I appreciate it. But we need to handle this together, okay?"

Beom Seok nodded, still looking shaken.

Tae Ho sneered at Beom Seok, "You think you can protect her? You're just a weak little boy!" And for your knowledge i know everything about her where to go where live who shi like everythi-

Beom Seok's eyes flashed with anger, and he punched Tae Ho in the face again. But to their surprise, Tae Ho wasn't alone. A group of big, menacing men emerged from the shadows, surrounding them.

Beom Seok looked back at Eun Ae, then at Joon Woo, and gestured for them to leave. But Joon Woo didn't budge. Instead, he took Eun Ae's hand and told her to call the police while he stood beside Beom Seok, ready to fight.

"We're not going anywhere," Joon Woo said, his eyes locked on the men. "We're in this together."

Eun Ae's eyes widened in fear, but she quickly pulled out her phone and dialed the police. Beom Seok and Joon Woo stood back-to-back, ready to face the group of men.

"You guys are crazy," Tae Ho spat, holding his bleeding nose. "You think you can take us on?"

Beom Seok smiled grimly. "We're not afraid of you."

The men charged at them, and the fight began. Eun Ae watched in horror, praying for the police to arrive soon.

The sound of punches and kicks filled the air as Beom Seok and Joon Woo fought off the men. Eun Ae watched in awe, seeing how well they worked together, taking down their attackers one by one.

But just when it seemed like they were gaining the upper hand, more men appeared, surrounding them again. Beom Seok and Joon Woo were starting to get tired, and Eun Ae knew they couldn't keep this up for much longer.

Just as she was starting to worry, she heard the sound of sirens in the distance. The police were coming!

The men, realizing they were about to get caught, started to retreat. Beom Seok and Joon Woo took advantage of the distraction to land a few more punches before the men fled.

As the police arrived, Beom Seok and Joon Woo stood panting, their fists still clenched. Eun Ae rushed over to them, relief written all over her face.

"Thank you," she said, hugging them both tightly. "Thank you for protecting me."

Beom Seok smiled, his eyes still flashing with adrenaline. "Anytime," he said. "We're in this together, always."

Joon Woo nodded in agreement, his eyes locked on Eun Ae's. "We're a team," he said. "No one hurts our Eun Ae."

Eun Ae's heart swelled with love and gratitude for her two heroes. She knew she could always count on them to keep her safe.

As the police arrived, Eun Ae took a few deep breaths and ran towards Beom Seok and Joon Woo. She hugged Beom Seok tightly, tears of relief streaming down her face.

"Thank you," she whispered, her voice shaking. "Thank you for protecting me. I'm so sorry I didn't tell you about Tae Ho, I was so scared..."

Beom Seok held her close, stroking her hair. "It's okay, Eun Ae. I'm just glad I was there to help."

But as they hugged, Joon Woo stood off to the side, his eyes fixed on them with a mixture of emotions. His face twisted in a jealous scowl, he looked away, trying to hide his feelings.

Eun Ae didn't notice, too caught up in her relief and gratitude. But Beom Seok saw his friend's expression and felt a pang of unease. He knew Joon Woo had feelings for Eun Ae, and this was only going to make things more complicated.

As they pulled back from the hug, Eun Ae turned to Joon Woo and smiled. "Thank you too, Joon Woo. I don't know what I would have done without you both."

Joon Woo forced a smile, trying to hide his jealousy. "Anytime, Eun Ae. We're always here for you."

But Beom Seok knew that Joon Woo's words were laced with a hint of bitterness, and he wondered what would happen next.
