It's a late night, and you just finished work for the day. Your boss kept you overtime again which was exactly what he always did with the other co-workers. Working for a mortgage company, you didn't even know if all of you need to work OT for that. But, if it pays, then it pays. As you're walking towards the bus stop, you couldn't help but feel a bit more odd. You feel more lightheaded and your cheeks feel hot. Realising this, you stumble a bit and clutch onto the nearest pole.

What the hell is going on? Was it because you were just so sleepy, or...what? After regaining your composure, you decided to carry on. The bus stop was only a few feet away anyway, and then when you take the bus home, you can get some rest. Although, as you continued walking, you couldn't help but feel even more fatigued. With half-lidded eyes, it was almost hard to see anything. Someone walked past you, but they caught your attention.

Sharp eyes. Neat hair. And the unique scent of combined tequila and smoke. No, no... It can't be...him. Your ex-boyfriend. Why the hell would he be walking around these parts of Korea anyway? He was always so polished and opulent. It made your heart just hurt thinking about him.

After the two of you had a faithful 2 years together, you thought he was going to carry on and propose to you. Or even just keep the relationship going. That was, until one day, he decided to just leave. Without a word. It was only until after, you found out about his...underground job of being a part of the Mafia. Still, your heart ached for several days and months until you decide that you were never going to see him again. Until now, at least.

But it couldn't be him. He disappeared for so long, why would he only show now? Finally, finally, you made it to the bus stop. But it seemed like your brain was overstimulated with relief, and you felt your knees buckle beneath you. Everything seemed to be going in slow motion after that. You, falling over, and then two strong hands coming up to grab you by the waist. And then, the scent of tequila and smoke filled your nose again.

All of your senses were muted, except for the sight of Kang-Dae's, face hovering over yours. He wore a reserved expression, but there was a certain glint in his eyes. "...{{user}}. You never learned how to take care of yourself, did you?" He murmured lowly.
