Remembering where Seokmin used to always hang out with me as we were younger boys, I hurry to the playground that we used to live together. We lived on the same neighborhood, hanging out whenever we were bored. I hurry to find myself lost within the world of hiding.

How did I end up like this?

Why did I believe that this would be succeeded? I couldn't even find myself living through this all..

I sit down on the old, rusted swings to look down at the ground. Maybe if I get caught, this will be the end for me. My own grandma had to be taken away as an accomplice. In remembering Soonyoung's words, I know it would be worse to think of how he saved me. But his life wasn't as crusted as mine. I didn't know much about Seungcheol either, just killing him so that I could live but also so that he would be able to live a life without fear no longer. Was I really doing this for my own sake?

I shake my head, as my head starts to spin once again. Less rest, and less food, it was now affecting my whole body. As I am looking at the floor, playing with the dirt, I see a pair of feet in front of me. I look up slowly, widening my eyes as I never expected to find him here.

"Jeon Wonwoo? What the hell are you doing here?"

"Boo Seungkwan, you remember me?"

Seungkwan rolls his eyes, as he puts his sunglasses away. He hides his face using a scarf, as I look around confusingly. He flips the back part of his hair and whispers, "I don't want anyone to look at me as I am quite famous."

No one passes through the playground, and I reply, "Y-yeah I guess so."

Seungkwan laughs quietly and hits my shoulder, saying quietly, "What are you doing here?"

"That's exactly what I want to ask, I don't remember you living around here."

"Oh, I'm on a short break. I'm on my way to go see a friend, want to tag along? I know you are having difficulty because of your little scandal."

I squint that loud, annoying brat as I respond, "Wait, aren't you scared of me then?"

Seungkwan starts laughing as if I have told the most hilarious joke, clapping as a bonus. I have never been so confused with such an annoying guy, except for Jihoon at times. Seungkwan leans towards my face, putting the huge sunglasses on my face, as he also covers them with my falling bangs. I readjust my cap, as Seungkwan strolls off first as I slowly follow after him.

A huge black car has arrived in front of the playground, as Seungkwan gets inside first. He motions me to get in already, as he doesn't have the best patience of the world. I get into the car, as the whiff of warm heat from the heater welcome my cold face. I realize his sunglasses are quite girlish, as they are a shade of dark brown and purple, and quite big.

Seungkwan seems to have read my mind,  "They're my sister's, so don't complain. It with the only thing to help cover and protect your eyes."

"How did you-"

He interrupts me talking by shushing me with his finger on his lips, and faces the driver. He closes his eyes and folds his hands together, and shouts, "Off we go!"

The car zooms away from the playground, as I look out the window then at window, still being surprised of how interesting this situation.
