A slap lands on Dongyeol's cheek, leaving a visible red mark on it. "Shut your fucking mouth." Wooseok glares. "I would rather spend my whole life with Yein than with you! Go out!" Dongyeol is holding back his tears, feeling shocked after Wooseok slapped him. "Listen to me, Wooseok! You'll regret your decision to choose Yein instead of me!" Dongyeol says. "I don't fucking care! Go away!" Wooseok shouts angrily, making Dongyeol scared and runs to the front door.

Wooseok sits back on the couch, sighing. He has made a big mistake. A really big and bad mistake. "I'm going," Wooseok says, standing up and taking his keys, "I'm gonna get Yein back," Mrs. Kim nods, then when Wooseok has left, she takes her phone, calling the CEO of Dongyeol's agency to fire him because of making and spreading false rumor.

A small figure is standing in the hallway, watching and listening the whole scary thing. "Sunyoul is going home?" Hwanhee mumbles to himself, wiping his tears away and going back to his room.

Wooseok isn't calm at all. He's driving too fast and he lets his mind wander off, thinking about Yein. He has made some calls, but Yein hasn't answered him. "Yein's not here, please leave a message for me and I'll call you as soon as possible!" He keeps getting the same answer, making him frustrated.

He hasn't given up yet and keeps trying to call Yein. "Please, please, please, answer me..." Wooseok mumbles. He's waiting for a minute until...

"Hello?" Bingo!
"Seon Yein! Yein, please go back to my house,"

Yein gasps as he heard the voice of Wooseok. "Sir? Is there something wrong?" Yein asks, fiddling the hem of his shirt. "Yes, yes! Everything has gone wrong! Please go home," Wooseok says, stuttering at his own words. "But I don't have any-"

"Tickets? Don't worry I've bought it for you. Your train will arrive in 30 minutes, forget your clothes, please just bring yourself and your other important things. I'll be waiting at the station," Wooseok says, eyes are still focusing on the road.
"Sir? Wake up!" Yein says.
"I am fucking wake up, Seon Yein!"
"Um, n-no, I mean... It takes 6 hours from Wando to Seoul,"

Wooseok stops his car. "What?"
"6 hours."
"6 hours?"

Yein sighs, "You should go back," he turns on the speaker and changes his clothes into his favorite gray sweater and black jeans. "I can't! I-" Wooseok stutters, "I'll go to the nearest hotel," Yein takes his bag, inserting wallet, and some clothes he can easily reach from the wardrobe. "Okay, see you in 6 hours." Yein walks out from his room, finding his mother.

"Mom, I need to go back to Seoul," Yein says, looking at his mom worriedly. "Why?" Yein's mom asks. "I... The family needs me. There's a serious problem," Yein says. The woman smiles and nods, seemingly understands her son's problem. "Thank you." Yein hugs his mom. "I need to go now, see you!" Yein runs out from the house, waving at his mom.

"See you," the woman mumbles.

Wooseok turns his car and he's looking for the nearest hotel to the station. He can't go back to the house because he has made a promise to himself that he wouldn't go home until he had found Yein. When he has found a hotel, he quickly parks his car and enters the building.

"Good evening, sir, how can I help you?" a woman says, drawing Wooseok's attention to her. "I want to rent a room," Wooseok says. This is the best decision for him since it's already late and he needs to sleep even though he knows he can't sleep at tonight.
