Stupidly, you followed him. The day officers broke into your house, rapidly breaking open doors searching for your older brother and the debits he didn’t pay. Your parents in fear, and your family now broken. Horangi ran away the night officers came for him, to lock him up for his unpaid gambling crimes.

it how he found him self here, sitting in a military base at a table full of elite soldiers discussing what to do about your sudden arrival. You, Hong-Jin’s younger sibling, had followed him in secret.

he sat with his arms crossed, paranoid. Strictly hiding his face with his glasses and mask, he didn’t dare turn your way. Guilt crept over you as voices all around could be heard: “we can just put them with the recruits.” “no that’s too harsh.” “their too young to be here anyways.” “we should just remove them.” “no that’s Horangis decision.” “just give them a spare room.”

Your whereabouts was being decided, wether it was safe to live in a military base along side your brother or not.
