- Donghan's pov -

" What was that for? " He questioned. " Don't take it seriously " She answered. She started leaning in to tell me something when the door flew open, " Oh, I'm sorry for disturbing " Eomma quickly closed the door.

" I'll go check on her, you should rest " I said. I went over to mom's room with a cup of tea. " Donghan, what are you doing here? " She asked. " Yerin is resting, you should rest too " I replied.

I went down stairs when I heard the phone ringing, it was Yerin's phone.

Caller: Yerin ah, where are you? Wanna have a look at your beautiful house? * Video starts playing *.

I dropped the phone and rode my motorbike to her house. " Look who's here " They approached me. " How could you burn someone's house?!?!? " I shouted. " Shut up " They threw a punch at me. " TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT! " I yelled.

" What can you do with the house now? It's gone and you know what's going to be gone next?... It's Yerin " They giggled. " Are you crazy? Don't you dare touch her you jerks! Touch her and you'll die first" I warned them.

" Why? You'll kill us? You're too weak " They laughed. " Stop, I'm serious " I said. " Whatever, do it boys " He told his friends. They started attacking me, of course I couldn't go against all 3 of them.

" Stop! " Someone shouted. I turned around and it was Yerin. " Yerin! Don't come here! " I shouted. " You can hurt me but why do you hurt my friends?!?! " She asked them. " Yerin! Stay there " I said.

" The princess have arrived " The leader of the gang slowly walked towards me. " We'll let you make a decision, either you pay us all the money you have or I'll kill your stupid friend " He kicked my stomach. " I haven't made a decision, why are you hurting him? " She questioned.

" He's a weak boy, if you fall for him, he won't be able to protect you anyways so... why not let him die " He answered. " This decision isn't for me to make, just let him go while I'm being nice or I'm calling the police " She told them.

" Calling the police will take time, killing him will just take a second, how about we help yo... " They started. " Just kill me " I cut in. " Donghan ah " She called. " If that means she won't have to pay the money you asked for and if you'll leave her alone, I'm willing to die " I explained. " Don't say that " She said. " But promise me that if I die this moment, you won't bother or go looking for her anymore " I continued.

" Sure, I promised...how about we follow his decision? " They looked at Yerin. " Please... just kill me " I insisted. She started crying, the leader took out his gun and pointed it at me, " Wait, I... " She sobbed.

I was honestly scared but I had to be brave, I had to take this risk. " Don't move! Hands above your head " The police came. The three boys ran away as the police chase them. She ran to me and hugged me, " I'm sorry " She cried.

I started tearing up as well. " Kids, kids! Are you guys okay? " Eomma came to us. The firefighters got rid of the fire and took us home. " You kids should rest, I'll call the police and ask about those jerks " Eomma told us.

Yerin and I went to my backyard to get some fresh air, " Why did you say you'll die? " She asked. I pulled her in for a hug, " I was afraid to die, but thinking about you makes me even more afraid of living " I explained. " Don't say random things like that anymore, it hurts me more hearing you say that to me " She told me.

" Why? Why does it hurt you? " I asked. " Because I li... I'm just worried about you " She tried to avoid the question. " Is that really it? " I continued. " No, that's not it " She admitted. " Then? " I questioned. " In that few seconds, I was thinking about my life without you and I was reflecting on what you've done for me, I couldn't let you die so quickly " She explained.

" When I said I would die, I was only thinking about saving you, aren't you curious why I'm doing this for you?" I said. " It's probably because you feel bad for me, I come from a poor background and you--- " She started. " That's not it " I cut her in.

" What? " She stared at me.

" I like you... a lot, what should I do? "
