Bonding in Worrying Times, Part Seventeen

When he heard the yell of Nebok's name, Duri knew that the two strangers had to get out of here.

"You guys need to get out of here right now," He cut in during their somewhat interesting debate about whether Beom's streak could be called a bulb or not, looking a bit frantic.

"Huh?" Young blinked, crimson eyes filled with confusion. "But the park doesn't close until another hour-"

"Just go!" He grabbed them and started pushing them away. "It's not safe here! Especially when you're around me!" 

"Woah woah woah," Beom spun around to face him, crossing his arms as he looked at Duri with a frown. "What's going on? What did you mean by that?" 

"Please, just go!" he begged, ignoring the confusion radiating off them. "I can't let you get hurt! They would kill you if they saw you!" 

"Hold up, who exactly are you talking about?" Young frowned.

"You don't have to know. Just... go!" he kept up his pressure, slowly making progress. 

The two looked frustrated as they tried to fight back, but Duri had been training his endurance and strength. (Not that Nebok had to know. Though when his family finds out... Let's just say that Hana would not be pleased.) They did have a good few years on him, yes, but he wasn't going to let them get hurt, no matter what. 

"Hey hey, why so pushy?!" Young protested. "We can take those guys after you!" 

Duri's pressure only grew. With the last ounce of strength in him, he finally managed to reach a safe distance from the shouts, right in front of the gate, "You have to go! I'll deal with them. They can't know that you were here!" 

"Oi oi, can't you at least explain-" 

"I CAN'T!" 

Almost after saying that, Duri covered his mouth, eyes wide in fear. Did they hear him? What if they did? Would they get hurt? Tears filled his eyes as the multiple scenarios played in various parts of his brain simultaneously.

"I-I'm so sorry..." he choked out. "You have to run, p-please." 

"Why do we have to do that?" Beom looked even more worried than before. (He would deny this to the end, though.)

"JUST GO!" he screamed, using his fists to punch them back- and out of the park as well. "Run! Never come back!" 

"But you-" 

"Duri!" 

"Nebok-hyung?!" He spun around and slammed straight into Nebok's chest, making them slam onto the gate. 

"Ouch..." Nebok growled as he rubbed his head, which had hit the metal. "That hurt..." 

"I think we have bigger problems..." Duri mumbled, seeing the people behind Nebok catch up. 

"Well well well, look who we finally caught," Diluk sneered.
