''I'm home''
Anna said as she entered the apartment she shared with her parents and grandmother. There was no welcome as usual when Anna came home from school, this has been felt by Anna for almost 10 days when her grandmother had to be hospitalized because of a heart disease she suffered. Her father worked and her mother had to take care of his grandmother in the hospital. And because of that Anna felt very lonely at home. On normal days, Anna would accompany her grandmother all day at home, when her parents worked. Unlike other high school kids who fill their days by taking classes outside, Anna prefers to spend time with her grandmother and work part-time at a small convenience store.
Anna opened the cupboard and saw instant noodles, there was no other choice but this, she thought. Anna then cooked the instant noodles, while eating Anna sat in front of the television, actually she didn't pay much attention to what she was watching, she just wanted to hear the sound of the tv so that the dining atmosphere didn't feel lonely. After eating, Anna got ready to go to work. There are still 2 hours left before her shift, but rather than being home alone, Anna prefers to help her friend at the supermarket.
The atmosphere of the city of Seoul looks cloudy, the rain began to wet the streets of the city. The drizzle soon turned into heavy rain. There’s a group of people in black suits gathered in a small food stall. Their fierce looks and large bodies made other people eating in the smalll food stall feel uncomfortable. The men in black suits were seen sitting around a tall man in a red suit who was eating. A small sweat was seen adorning the forehead of the man in the red suit, mouthful after mouthful he put into his mouth, occasionally he wiped the sweat that was flowing from his forehead. Little by little, the food that the man in the red suit ate began to decrease and run out, he didn't forget to take a sip of the broth from his food, by lifting the bowl.
''Ahhhhh''
Said the man in the red suit with satisfaction, as he took a sip of his food broth. The hot and spicy taste of the food he ate earlier, made him feel satisfied with his choice of food today. A bowl of hot noodle is indeed best enjoyed during this rainy weather, he thought. After eating the man in the red suit immediately paid for his meal, when the man in the red coat headed out of the small food stall, every pair of eyes looked at him silently as if confirming the departure of the man and the group with him.
The man in the red suit, Richard Walter Ghonee, the leader of The W Mafia, got into his car as soon as he got out of the shop. With medium speed, Richard's car moved across the streets of Seoul, leaving the small food stall. The heavy rain made the streets look deserted. Richard looked out the window of his car while humming softly. Richard liked the rain, for him the rain could give him peace. Seeing some people taking shelter at the bus stop and some wearing umbrellas while walking on the sidewalk, Richard smiled when he saw a pink umbrella with cat ears on it, maybe the children under the umbrella thought.
When it was cool to observe the road, Richard's car suddenly had to swerve to the right and approached the sidewalk, it surprised Richard and scolded the driver.
"You're crazy, you want to kill me huh?"
Richard shouted at the driver.
''Sorry boss, there was a car stopped suddenly''
said the driver by looking at Richard through the rearview mirror. There is a fear emanating from the driver.
Anna was walking the sidewalk accompanied by a pink umbrella with a cat's head on the top. The heavy rain made Anna walk more carefully so as not to be splashed by puddles on the sidewalk she was walking on. Now and then, her mouth mumbled the tune of her favorite song. Step by step, Anna walked calmly until a car suddenly swerved to the right near the sidewalk where she was walking, making her have to be wet because of the splash of water. Anna looked at her wet clothes while the driver of the black car continued to drive without feeling guilty. ''Shit'' cursed Anna. With a resentful heart, Anna kept walking toward work. The cold wind pierced her skin more and more every time Anna stepped on her feet. When Anna got close to her workplace, she saw the black car that had made her soaked earlier and stopped right in front of the convenience store. Anna also quickened her steps. She was curious who the bold car driver made her have to get wet like this. As Anna entered the shop, she saw
Since that incident, Pierre has been more silent and always ignores me. But he still serves Max as usual by taking Max to wherever Max ordered him. And I was always by Max's side, acting as Max's confidant and his bodyguard. Max's bold attitude towards me slowly started not to be as crazy as it used to be. But every night, I could see Pierre coming out of Max's room with his messy hair. And that very night, I last saw Pierre. Because the following day, we were surprised by Pierre, who committed suicide by hanging himself. As for Max, he doesn't care about Pierre, who has took his own life. He didn't feel sorry that Pierre ended his life, because he feels depressed because of Max's actions. That's when my patience ran out. I couldn't do any more with the naivety and stupidity I had maintained all this time.I pretended to flirt with Max and asked him to go to his favorite club, just the two of us. Stupid and lust-thirsty, Max quickly accepted my invitation, and I drugged him while we w
Finished with her part-time job, Anna went straight home. When Anna got home, she saw her father sleeping on the dining table, with instant noodles still untouched. Anna smiled sadly at her father, who looked very tired. Anna shook her father slowly and asked him to move to the room. But the father did not move and stroked Anna's hair gently. "If things were better, you wouldn't have to work until late at night." Anna smiled when her father, Steve's let out a sentence that sounded like a burden from his heart. It was apparent from the look on his eyes that he feels sorry for the life of his dasughter who had to work hard to support herself. Steve and Jasmine's money and their savings, slowly began to run out for their mother's treatment. Anna, who doesn't want to burden her parents, decides to work part-time. "Don't talk nonsense, Dad. I like working part-time. I enjoy it, instead of being home alone and not getting any money." "What do you mean not getting any money?'" "I gave yo
Jasmine was silent for a while until she finally replied to the words of her former co-worker."Adele, I'm Jasmine Perto.""Oh, Jasmine, why did you just contact me now?"Jasmine smiled awkwardly when she heard the words from Adele, her former co-worker. Adele is very chatty and friendly, unlike Jasmine who is not very pleasant and does not have many friends in her work environment."I tried to contact you a few months ago, but your phone number can only be reached now.""You're right. I forgot about that. I had to do that so that people in the police would no longer contact me.""How's Steve and Anna? Are they all right?" Adele asked enthusiastically. She had not exchanged news with Jasmine in a long time, and when Jasmine contacted her first, she was excited."'They're good", Jasmine answered."Oh good then, how about your Mother-in-law? Is she also okay?"Jasmine was silent when Adele asked about her mother-in-law, who is still lying in the ICU."The red ginseng I gave her that tim
Richard was sitting in his office, his eyes staring out the window at the people passing by under his office building. His mind drifted to a woman who suddenly came to his office and offered an illicit item. Richard wasn't stupid. Even though he didn't know the woman, he knew she must be working for someone from the dark world. Richard was fed up with having to pretend to run a company that he thought was very monotonous and not very profitable, unlike his business in the dark world, where profits didn't have to be reduced by disproportionate costs."Chansu, do you remember the name of the blonde woman who suddenly came to my office yesterday?"Chansu which is Richard's confidant, nodded his head. Richard was the worst when remembering someone's name, especially if it was the first time that person had met him. Because of that, he always asked Chansu to remember everyone who met Richard."Adele. The woman's name is Adele," explained Chansu."The Information about her?" asked Richard a
Adele's real motive (Flashback)Jasmine was walking in a hurry, grocery bags filling her hands. Now and then she glanced at the watch that was wrapped around her left wrist. Jasmine was going to cook for a small dinner party, today she was finally able to get together with her little family and have dinner together, this probably wouldn't have happened if Adele hadn’t loaned her the money. This party was also to express her gratitude to Adele and as a banquet because they had not seen each other for a long time. However, Jasmine was still curious about what Adele wanted to talk about.When Jasmine arrived at her apartment, she was immediately greeted with a warm hug by her daughter, Anna. Anna still wasn't feeling well, and it was already her third day without school."Where is Dad? why he haven't come home yet?"Jasmine smiled seeing her daughter's spoiled nature.''He will be home, soon. You just rest in your room, I will cook you porridge.”Anna nodded when she heard Jasmine's word
Richard reads the results of his Casino's financial statements. Now and then, his eyes glanced at Chansu from behind the paper he was reading. Chansu stood with his head down as if he didn't dare look into Richard's eyes."Explain it" said Richard in a cold tone.Richard placed the papers on his desk and folded his arms. His eyes were fixed on Richard."Why? You don't want to answer it?" Richard said again."Well, boss, umm profit this month.."Chansu looked nervous and couldn't get the words he would say properly. His eyes were busy looking here and there.''PRANGGG…''Richard threw the cigarette ashtray on his desk towards Chansu. Chansu shuddered in horror as the crystal ashtray nearly hit his head."Say something about it. Or I'll fuckin’ shoot you on the head"Richard stood up from his chair and pulled the small gun under his grey coat."No no Boss, Please don't.""Say it quickly."Richard pointed his gun right at Chansu’s head.''Gulp''Chansu swallowed his saliva. He was scared
Anna looked out of her window now and then during the last lesson. Her mind couldn't focus at all during the last lesson. Her eyes wandered around his classroom, and saw some of her classmates sleeping with books covering their faces. The boredom and the desire to get out of class quickly filled Anna's mind. Even though she still has to work after school,she enjoys it.''Kringgg….''The sound of the school bell freed Anna's mind. After the teacher left the classroom, Anna hurriedly also left the classroom. Anna is like her mother, a loner type, but she will show her true nature and be cheerful and talkative when meeting people who make her feel comfortable.As she walked towards the school gates, she saw a very familiar man standing. Anna quickened her pace and approached the man."Mark" called Anna.He turned around as soon as he heard his name being called. Anna was silent when she saw Mark's facial expression, which looked misserable, with cuts on the corners of his lips and bruise
