Hyunjin was sitting in a fancy wood chair, emotionless, eyes that used to be so full of life staring at the white wall in front of him. He felt the hot and dark blood flowing slowly and grossly from his neck, dripping on the floor... His last breath exiting his lungs.

"Hyunjin, Hwang Hyunjin." One week before, Hyunjin - a handsome 18 year old - was stopped while walking on the streets by an old lady with a strong accent for a 'special job', that according to her, he was perfect for. She didn't give much information, only a number to apply for an interview.
And here he was now, at an interview for a job that he had no information about.
The girl asking questions was pale and short, with long straight hair. Her eyes were intimidating. The girl didn’t make eye-contact with Hyunjin for a few seconds, she kept looking at a papers full of information. Hyunjin decided to stay silent until she said something, which she finally did, after a few extremely awkward minutes of silence.
"Okay, everything seems to be on point, Mr. Yang will take care of you form now and explain everything to you" Said the woman before exiting the room without blinking or smiling once.
Time went by, and he understood less and less of what was going on. No one had explained to him what all of this was about and he was confused. Hyunjin was lost in thought,until he was interrupted by something. Someone, actually.
"Hyunjin, right? follow me." A boy was standing next to the door. This time the aura was different, he was smiling cheerfully. It almost looked like the cold and monochromatic room was filled with color.
While following this guy in silence Hyunjin realized, after staring at him discreetly, that he was really young but he put a lot of effort in looking older. Hyunjin smiled, laughing quietly at the thought of this kid being his boss. Once again, his thoughts were cut off by the younger. "I'm Yang Jeongin, the youngest son of the owners of this mansion."
Now it all made a little sense.
"As you can see, our household is gigantic. Your job here would be some sort of house keeper." Said Jeongin keeping a smile on his face.
"Okay, I'm interested-"
"The pay is really big" Interrupted the kid. It was almost like he was able to read minds, he was smarter than he seemed. "You can start now, and if we like how you work we'll hire you."
"Sounds good." Said Hyunjin dedicating a smile for the younger.
"Perfect! I'll lead you to the dressing room, you have to wear a uniform."
_______
Hyunjin was looking at a mirror now. He had to get used to his new clothes, he wanted to look as confident as possible for his new job.
The uniform was a combination of a comfortable black suit with a white and expensive-looking shirt with the first 3 buttons unbuttoned, Jeongin told him to specifically wear it like this. Hyunjin sat down and held an item in his hands. The uniform didn't include any tie or bow, but this wide dark red choker instead.
He had never seen a uniform include a choker.
It looked kinda cool anyways so he decided to go all the way. He called Jeongin in.
"Oh wow look at you!" Said the rich boy while entering the room. Hyunjin gave up in trying to tell if he wanted to befriend him or he just saw him as a subordinate. He smiled at Jeongin anyways.
"Thank you! There is only one problem... This choker... Ah- don't get me wrong! I'm willing to wear it, but would you help me tie it?"
"Of course." Jeongin's smile was different this time. It was like that twisted smile toddler's give you when they're lying.
While Hyunjin was staring at himself in the mirror Jeongin stood on top of a chair, and put his hands around the older's neck. He looked serious, as if he was doing a really important surgery.
Hyunjin gasped at the first contact of the kid's hands. Why were they so cold? He focused at the kid's face and just stayed like that until he finished.
"Done! It won't untie, I'm sure." He laughed "Now that you're ready you can start by doing some investigation." Hyunjin stared confused "It's just a fancy way to say 'go look around'".
They both laughed. Hyunjin started his 'investigation' after Jeongin gave him a map of the mansion.
"Oh, by the way" Jeongin stopped Hyunjin from walking "Be cautious. Not all of my brothers are as nice as me." Said the kid dead serious.
Hyunjin's smile disappeared. What did he mean by that?
He stood confused and looked through a window - maybe it was a good idea to go explore the gardens first.
