ASSASSIN | SEUNGJIN ✔

EIGHTEEN - A SECRET

[ CHAN POV ]

" Do you think he'll be able to do it? ".

" Yeah, I trust him. It's probably a piece of cake for him. Hyunjin's capability is more than just killing an untrained boy ".

" I know but, doesn't something seem off? He seems hesitant to kill the boy. Don't you see it? ".

" He's probably just waiting for the right time to kill him ".

" So, what happens if Hyunjin fails to kill him? What then? ".

" His father appoints Hyunjin's first in command to take his place ".

" You mean Changbin? He'll take Hyunjin's place? ".

" Yes ".

" What happens to Hyunjin after that? ".

" His father will make Changbin kill him and Seungmin ".

" No, Changbin will never do that ".

" Changbin follows orders Chan, he will have to kill Hyunjin ".

" I have to go Woojin, I have some work. We'll talk later ".

"Take care Chan ".

I couldn't process what Woojin had said. If Hyunjin fails to kill Seungmin, Changbin will take his place and kill the both of them. That sounds bad. For both of them.

Does Changbin even know about this? Should I go and tell him? He's probably in the kitchen, it's the perfect place to talk to him.

While I was contemplating about whether it not I was supposed to tell Changbin about this big problem, I heard the sound of the doorbell.

" I'll get it " I said aloud and went to get the door.

I had a gun in my back pocket, so even if was the police or any of the rival gangs at the door, I'll just shoot them.

I opened the door and saw a young boy, probably in his late teenage years, standing outside shyly. He had light brown hair and braces.

" What do you want? " I asked the boy.

" Oh um, I-I was l-looking for m-my brother Seungmin. H-he's been missing for a day and he last informed me t-that he was coming here to m-meet someone. My dad's been searching f-for him too. Do you p-perhaps know where he might be? I'm quite w-worried " he stuttered.

Oh, so he's Seungmin's brother. He's cute.

" Seungmin huh? I don't think I know someone like that " I lied. "Did he tell you who he was gonna meet? " I asked him.

" Uh, yeah. Someone named Hyunjin or something. Is there anyone like that, that you know of? " he asked me softly.

" Hyunjin.... yes I know him! Why don't you come on in? I'll ask Hyunjin about your brother " I said.

" Uh I'll wait outside if you don't mind " he replied.

What a sly fox.

" Oh yeah, I just realized, Hyunjin's not at home. Why don't you give me your phone number and I'll call you if I get any whereabouts of your brother? " I asked.

" Uh ok " he said and gave me his phone number. " I'll get going now, thank you for your help ".

" Wait, you didn't tell me your name " I questioned.

He giggled and said " My name's Jeongin ".

" Nice to meet you Jeongin, I'm Chan ".

" Nice to meet you too " he said and walked away.

[ CHANGBIN POV ]

I was in the kitchen grabbing few bottles of water for Jisung and Felix when Chan hyung came inside. He seemed a bit troubled.

" What's wrong hyung? " I asked.

" Changbin, I think we're in some trouble " he replied.

" What trouble? What do you mean? "

" Seungmin's brother was at the door. He was searching for him. He also told me that his father is searching too. You know what'll happen if the rival gang finds Seungmin " he said.

" Oh my God, this is a serious situation. Come with me, let's go tell Hyunjin about it " I said and left the kitchen with Chan hyung.

On the way to the basement, we saw Minho hyung.

" Minho hyung, can you give the prisoners these bottles of water? We're in a hurry right now " I said and gave all the bottles to Minho.

" Sure, you guys can get going " he said and we darted to the room Hyunjin was in.

[ JISUNG POV ]

" Soooo.....you're gay? " I asked Felix awkwardly.

" Aren't you? I saw how you were talking about that Minho guy or whatever " he replied.

" Seriously, I just called him hot, besides, he really does look good, you'll know when you see him " I said.

" But to answer your question, yes, I guess I'm gay. Gay for Changbin " he answered.

" So it's like Stockholm Syndrome. You fell for your kidnapper " I asked him.

" Yeah probably! " he said laughing. " What about your hottie, Minho? " Felix mocked.

" Shut up. I just called him hot once, it's not like I wanna go all over him " I retorted.

" Sorry to interrupt your conversation, but thanks for the compliment squirrel head " a voice said near the door.

Minho was standing there with a few bottles in his hand with one eyebrow raised, smirking at me. He now knows I called him hot.

" Oh, so you're Minho. Jisung has been talking about you " Felix said to him.

" No, I have not! " I retorted.

" Don't worry, everyone falls for me " he said to me and turned over to Felix " You must be Felix ".

" Yes " Lix said.

" Here, Changbin told me to bring you guys water " Minho said and handed over bottles to us.

" Why didn't he bring it himself? " Felix asked him with a slight blush on his face. He was whipped for Changbin.

" He had some work with Chan hyung " Minho told him.

" What work? " I asked him.

" It's a secret squirrel head " he replied.
