thirty-one

just letting y'all know my book was at #1 for bmin so thank you so much 🥺🥺

jjiwoo496 : kard

"hello jjiwoo496 , how may I help you?"

jjiwoo496 : cut the bullshit. when we land in la, we need a car ready. Understand?

"I'm sorry but I don't think we can provide the equipment you need."

jjiwoo496 : yes you can and you will. I won't ask again.

"yes jjiwoo496, a black Honda will be waiting for you outside the airport."

jjiwoo496 : good.

++++

"psst..somin."

"yeah?"

"a car will be waiting for us. How is Jseph?"

the two girls looked toward the boy. he had been sat still for the past few minutes, just looking around the plane now and again. fortunately for him, the bleeding had stopped and somin was able to seek medical care for him.

the only issue was getting off this plane alive, they knew kard had something in store for them. and it wasn't a good thing.

me : hey matt..you probably won't be able to open these messages but we are coming. I promise 🥺

matthew : wait really?

me : Matthew?!

matthew : they are asleep right now. how cliche I know.

me : are you okay?? any injuries?

matthew : my face it pretty battered. but otherwise I'm good. I can't wait to see you guys :(

me : jseph is in a lot of pain. but jiwoo is ready to fight and I sure am

matthew : that's my girl. stay safe okay? I saw on the news what happened in Seoul.

me : it was scary. Kard must really not like the fact we are trying to rebel

matthew : sure we don't even know who kard is. they just wanted us to kill the people they didn't like. making bullshit excuses up.

me : I kinda miss Wonho, all of them really. I think Jooheon was just brainwashed into thinking everyone hated him. He told me stories about his whole family leaving him. It must have fucked him up real good

matthew : sure it does hurt. we gotta deal with it tho. you can't let the mental stuff get to you.

me : I won't. Well I'll try not to. I just want you to stay safe okay?

matthew : how long till you will be in La?

me : uhhh apparently 3 hours now. I'm worried for jseph..

matthew : when you get off the plane don't come straight. Head to Vienna's Car Shop. They will help Jseph.

me : uhh okay. I'll see you.

the plane ride was fairly quiet. jiwoo had fallen asleep while jseph just sat still. he now and again winced in pain but it was almost like he was used to the pain and enduring it for a long time.

somin had also fallen asleep, the plane ride was the only peace they were going to have. And they knew that. It was going to be a chaotic drive to the Car Shop.

the air hostess shook Somin's body, she slowly opened her eyes to see that the plane was empty, with the exception of Jiwoo and Jseph.

"oh I'm sorry..I must have been really tired."

she smiled, before quickly grabbing her bag and running off the plane. jiwoo, however, was trying to lift jseph from his seat without increasing the blood flow so he wouldn't start bleeding again. still she had no choice but to take it slow and easy, while somin ran in panic to find the car.

"jiwoo, stop."

"what do you mean stop? I'm going to get you safe."

"I'm already safe. I can't be touched in the US."

"What?"

three tall men, holding briefcases, walked toward jiwoo who was struggling to hold jseph up. they placed him in a wheelchair and rolled him towards the front doors of the airport.

they completed dodged security and met somin in the black car.

"Vienna's Car Shop."

the driver nodded, pushing their foot down onto the accelerator and driving to the destination.

"who were those people?"

"the people from Korea, the ones that took me in."

"How did they make it here??"

jiwoo's eyes widened, her heart beat quickening as jseph waited longer to respond to the question.

"I told them. I knew shit was going to go down in the airport. I've had contact with them all this time but I didn't think to tell you guys because there was no point."

"so you thought there was no point to tell your closest friends that the people who kidnapped you, hurt you, nearly killed you, are still keeping in touch? stop with the lies jseph!!"

somin sighed before rolling down her window. the air in America was a lot different to Korea. It was one, well a lot less polluted, but it felt nicer. somin felt clean in the US. She felt different knowing that people didn't know her past.

the driver abruptly stopped infront of an alley way and ask the 3 of them to get out. jseph stumbled out of the car, holding his leg while jiwoo and somin carried the luggage.

"I'm going to check that no bugs or tracking devices were put on our suitcases. you take jseph into the shop and make sure he's dealt with..okay?"

somin nodded, placing one arm around jsephs waist and carrying him to the store.

a man, around 6"3, with tats and auburn hair looked toward the two foreigners who had just walked in. he nodded before opening the back door and signalling for the both of them to head back there.

somin walked down the corridor to a black door. she knocked and opened it to find, Wonho, breathing and ready to cause some mischief.
