"This stop is Gwangju, Songjeong Station." "This is us." They dismounted the train then looked around. "Well, this looks like it's in the suburbs." "That narrows it down." Giwook started walking then wondered if using a map would be better than gps. "I'll grab one just in case. Two actually so we can mark off where we've been." "Smart." They walked off and followed the map to get to where they needed to look. "Just wait a bit longer Donnie..."

Dongmyeong had taken the all too familiar blow in place of Yonghoon. "Don..." Dongmyeong shuddered as the pain coursed through his backside. "Will you ever tell us why?" The person threw a water bottle at Yonghoon then left. Yonghoon was quick to hold the younger close to him in an effort to console him. "You know you didn't have to..." "You've sacrificed your body for my sake...this is the least I can do." Dongmyeong looked his hyung up and down looking for any new marks. "I don't see anything...The week is almost over. Why is the pattern changing?" Yonghoon calmed him down as he knew that the person was watching them. "Maybe they just want to try something new."

"I guess..." Yonghoon opened the water bottle then decided against it. Dongmyeong slightly moved his head and Yonghoon responded with a long nod. They had developed their way of communicating into something complex after Yonghoon had found out they were being watched one day. "How did it go?" "Just as planned. I wanted to stay longer though..." Yonghoon sighed then ruffled his hair. The action alone told him enough.

They crossed off another area and Harin sighed. "How would we even know? Some of these homes look just like it." "Remember? They took a photo from inside. We just have to get them to open up and look inside." "I guess..." Giwook cracked his neck then checked the time. "It'll be sunset soon." "Should I call him now?" "No, lets go around a bit after a rest." Giwook took the locket out of his pocket then opened it. He missed his boyfriend dearly. "I just don't understand...why them..." He closed the locket then dropped it as he was putting it away. The photo fell out and was carried away by the wind.

He looked around where he saw it last and hoped it didn't land in or on anything wet. He spotted it next to a puddle and was thankful it hadn't fell in. "Harin, I found it." Harin walked over to him then noticed something in the puddle. "What's this..." Giwook followed his gaze and saw it as well. Harin picked it up and examined it. "It looks old." Giwook looked it over then wondered where he's seen it before. "It's looks familiar, but I can't seem to remember." He would know if it belong to Dongmyeong as he knew him like the back of his hand. "Let's hold onto it."

Dongmyeong covered his ears as unpleasant sounds came from down below. He figured he should be used to it by now, but he could only imagine how awful his hyung feels afterwards. He was always grateful for when the sounds stopped, meaning their captor was giving him a break. He looked out the window and down at the street. It was the same view. Nothing had really changed. The same people walked by, sometimes the same people walked by with babies or their still growing children. He missed his freedom, he missed his family and friends. He missed Giwook. He covered his ears once more as the sounds had come back.

Dongmyeong's eyes fluttered open and saw that it was now dark out. He looked behind him and saw his hyung lying on his side and shuddering. He crawled over to him then put their only blanket over him. "I'm sorry that you suffer in my stead...Why do you do it..." "Because you're still young..." He hadn't expected Yonghoon to respond as he thought he was asleep. "You don't deserve to be tainted by such a person. It's also my duty to protect you." Dongmyeong slid behind Yonghoon then held him close. "I know saying thank you will never be enough...but thank you." Yonghoon didn't respond as he could hear the sincerity in his voice.
