" I will wait for you Hanbin"

A familiar voice whispers to Hanbin's ears as he was sitting down on a chair in an empty dark room.

"Lee hi, where are you?"

"I will wait for you Hanbin"

Leehi's voice is now echoing inside the dark room, saying the same words all over again. Hanbin covers his ears as he starts to panic. He tries to get out from the room as he look for a door. But even though how hard he looks for a door he couldn't find one. This time Lee hi's voice become louder saying the same words again. Hanbin struggles to the pain as he still tries to find a door. Voice become more louder and the pain became more sharper. Hanbin couldn't do anything he just lay down his whole body on the floor feeling the pain all over his head then suddenly he opened his eyes, seeing the brown and almost rotten ceiling in his room. He sigh in relief as he realized that what happened to him earlier was just a nightmare. A nightmare that always on repeat and haunts Hanbin as he fall asleep.

Hanbin gets up from his bed and went straight to the bathroom. He rinse his face with the stagnant water in the the sink. As he raise his head to face the mirror he saw his self. Suddenly a deep thought came across in his mind.

"What if I didn't go to jail?"

Hanbin looks at his face in the mirror with a curious looking face. Thinking what would've be his future if he didn't went to jail. "Will I able to finish my studies?" "Will I have a proper job?" "Will be Lee hi still be mine?" "Will I have a better life?..... with Lee hi? "

Hanbin slap the water in the sink as he start to let alone his thoughts and do his usual routine as soon as he woke up. As he get out from the small shelter, he saw a set of breakfast on the wooden old bench. It was covered with plastics and have a note with it.

"Mom said that you should always have your breakfast. So from now on she will be the one who will cook for you.She will be very glad if you join us next time -Chanwoo"

Hanbin picked up the note and smirk as he read the letter. He sat down on the bench as he examines the food. He let his self enjoyed it. When he finally finished his food he start walking down the alley and went straight to his workplace. It was a coffee shop that is just near in the park where he meet Yuna.

"Oh.. good morning Hanbin" a good-looking man greeted him

"Morning Donghyuk" Hanbin greeted back

"Ya! You look horrible today what happened to your eyes? Seems like you had a nightmare" Donghyuk stated

"nightmare" Hanbin suddenly paused for a moment and remember his dream last night

"Maybe, it is really a nightmare " Hanbin mumbled

"Ya, what are you mumbling?" Ask Donghyuk

"Nothing.... I just remembered something" Hanbin answered

"What is it?"

"You wouldn't want to know"

"Aish! What a kill joy"

Suddenly another good-looking man with full lips joined Hanbin and Donghyuk. It is June one of the baristas in the coffee shop.

"Ya! lovebirds what are you arguing early in the morning?" June asked

"It's none of your business" Donghyuk replied

"It's not worth knowing for" Hanbin also replied

"Seriously! I don't know why I worked in this place with some stone cold guys like you" June said
