Jae-Hwa's Point Of View
I was walking home from my last deal when I got a message from Da Wook telling me to come down to the restaurant. I turned the corner and made my way down there as fast as I could.
"What's the problem?" I asked out of breath.
"Yoona was attacked! Seung-Tae got to her with the help of one of his guys. She's at her hotel room right now but she's hurt pretty bad."
I began to panic, "who told you this?" I asked.
"Her friend Cyrus, he came on the way to go get her. He said for me to tell you and to say to go to the hotel to see her." he explained.
He told me where they and I rushed off. I didn't stop running until I got there. The thought of my Yoona hurt made me want to cry out why. Why would a person hurt a person hurt someone such as herself. Only a monster would, a monster like Seung-Tae. When I got to the room I fixed myself up before knocking.
Cyrus answered the door and led me in over to Yoona's bed. She was looking towards the window so I couldn't see her face. I could only see that her arms were covered in purple bruises.
"Yoona..." I said softly.
She slowly turned around to she was facing Cyrus and I. Her face was fine minus the gash at the top of her forehead. It wasn't too bad but it was pretty deep.
"Jae-Hwa..." she responded. She began getting out of the bed and outstretched her arms towards me. I walked over and pulled her into a hug without asking. I apologized over and over for getting her involved in my mess. I told her I'd fix everything, that I'd make it better. I'd get back at Seung-Tae for hurting her.
Jae-Hwa's Point Of View
After seeing Yoona in her condition I was furious. She had showed me the rest of her bruises and explained to me what had happened. I clenched my teeth at the thought of him beating on her. Why didn't he come after me? It doesn't matter now though. He brought whatever's coming upon himself, and his friend too.
Before heading to Seung-Tae's I went back to the apartment to pick up his money and a few other things. Under the nightstand I had a gun I'd gotten a while back. I wasn't really sure why I bought it but I figured I'd be better safe than sorry. I shrugged my shoulders and tucked the gun away in the breast pocket of my jacket.
Once I had the money and my gun I started toward Seung-Tae's. I wasn't sure if I could follow through with what I was about to do, but if it meant protecting Yoona I was all for it. While on my way I texted her telling her and Cyrus to stay in the hotel. I didn't want them getting hurt.
When I got to the club some of the girls that worked there led me to the back room. Seung-Tae was lounging on the couch with two girls to his right and left. I stood in front of the coffee table between us both. Non-chalantly, I tossed the wad on the table and it landed with a thud.
"Look, I'm not here to start any trouble, just take your money and let me resign peacefully." I said.
He chuckled slightly and swatted at the girls motioning for them to leave.
"You expect me to let you just leave? I took responsibilty of your punk ass as a hyung. I treated you like one of my own! I made sure you had somewhere to sleep at night! I gave you a job! Yet you expect to just leave?!"
He stood up and kicked over the table cause me to jump back away from it. He rushed towards me and swung at me but I swiftly dodged it. I tackled him to the floor and began delivering blow after blow to his face; my knuckles bled.
"After all I've done for you, you do this to me? Am I that horrible?" he muttered through a bloody lip.
"A monster." I whispered.
He pushed me off of him and kicked at my face, landing his boot right above my jawline. I hissed at the pain but went right after him and began kicking him back. Imagining him doing this to Yoona made me kick harder.
"Jae-Hwa..." his voice cracked through his bruised face.
"Don't say my name!" I punched him, "you don't deserve to say my name!" I punched him again.
Without hesitating reached for my gun and pulled it out. I pointed it right between his eyes and spoke.
"Let me go. I don't want to have to live with the guilt of killing you so just let me go, please." I began to cry.
"Anything, do anything, just go, be gone." he breathed heavily.
I wiped my face and slowly backed away and threw the gun on the floor. When I got back to the front room the club was raging. I tried getting out but it was just too crowded. Kicking and nudging my way out u cried harder. What was wrong with me? Why was I crying anyway? I kept wiping my face ridding it of tears.
Before I knew it I'd wandered all the way back to Yoona's hotel. When I got up to her room I knocked on the door and waited for someone to answer. Before the door opened all the way I collapsed on the floor.
"Jae-Hwa?" I could hear someone calling me but I couldn't open my eyes.
Someone began shaking me but I just lied there unresponsive. They kept calling my name but I ignored them, I was tired and I wanted to sleep.
