"Yes, Pho?"

"Gulf, can you stop by your cousin Dean's office for a moment? You just need to sign the cooperation letter there. Pho is still in France at the moment. I'm afraid you won't have time to stop by. You can, right?"

"Okay, Pho. I'll be there now"

"Now turn around. We will go to Dean's company."

"Yes sir"

Deanise Company,,

A black luxury car was parked beautifully in the company lobby, which was very luxurious and towering.

"Hey wake up!" He patted both cheeks until Mew woke up from his sleep on Gulf's shoulder and immediately sat up, blinking his eyes.

"Come with me in." Without further ado, Gulf got out of the car arrogantly, greeted respectfully by all the staff there.

Gulf was immediately directed to the room where Dean was.

Knock Knock Knock

"Excuse me sir, Sir Gulf has arrived" said Dean's secretary while looking down.

"Okay, tell me to come in."

Opening the door, inviting Gulf and Mew to enter.

When Dean saw Mew's face, Dean was a little stunned for a moment.

Meanwhile, Mew's eyes were busy looking at every corner of Dean's luxurious room.

Wasn't this kid the one outside my restaurant at that time? What kind of coincidence! His eyes were still looking at Mew.

"What are you looking at?" Gulf, who didn't like it when Dean was watching Mew, immediately blocked Dean's view using his sturdy body.

"Nothing. You're here to replace your father, right? Sit down. I'll get the letters." Opened the drawer and took the letters out onto the table.

"You can read it slowly first and then sign it. Oh yes, how are you, Gulf?"
Dean made small talk with his eyes continuing to stare at Mew.

Mew, who felt being stared at, looked into Dean's eyes, after a few seconds he turned his gaze in another direction.

Why does that person keep looking at me? Does he recognize me" Unconsciously knit his eyebrows.

"No need to make small talk with me, Dean" Signed after reading everything.

"My business is finished. Goodbye" Turn around.

"Why are you in such a hurry, Gulf? We only met after 2 years."

"I'm busy" Stepping out the door.
Dean immediately stood up and grabbed Mew's hand who had turned around and was about to follow Gulf out.

Mew was surprised when someone grabbed her hand.

"What's your name? When we met in front of the restaurant, we hadn't had time to get to know each other."

Mew turned around while frowning because he didn't remember the man at all.

"Let go of his hand, Dean. Holding a stranger's hand like that, where are your manners?" Grinning then threw Dean's hand away from Mew's hand.

"Let's go" Pulled Mew's wrist and walked away.

"What was that? His cheeks were red and there were bite marks on his neck. Did Gulf torture him?"

His eyes continued to stare at Mew's back until he disappeared.

Throughout the journey, Gulf kept giving Mew an unpleasant expression, making Mew very confused.

What's wrong this time? he was afraid he would be hit again if he asked, so Mew preferred to remain silent.

¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶

"Mewww!!! Finally arrived. We were really worried about leaving you with that person," said Win, immediately hugging Mew tightly and Mew hugged him back.

Joss just looked at him and didn't join in the hug.

"Let's go to the tent, Mew. I've prepared a place for you" Pulled Mew's wrist.

Meanwhile, Gulf and Perth were still standing quietly where they were.

"What's wrong with you, Gulf?"

"It's okay." He grabbed Porch's car keys in his trouser pocket and gave them to Perth.

"My Promise"

"No need, Gulf. I was just kidding." He gave the key back to Gulf.

"Tsk. Whatever. You just missed your big opportunity, Perth" Putting the car keys back into his trouser pocket.

"Oh yes, Gulf. Do you remember Jane?"

"Hmm, what's wrong with her?"

"She is among these new kids"

"WHAT?!"

"I also just found out. She just joined orientation today. She was looking for you, Gulf."

"If she looks for me again, you just say you don't know. Don't talk to her too much about me."

"Eehhh, Gul----" Seeing Gulf's back disappearing from his sight.

"Hah, even though Jane still loves you, Gulf. What makes you keep avoiding her?"

¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶

The next morning,,,

"SHIAAA,, MEWWW!! WHAT'S UP WITH THESE-MMPHH?!" Win was very surprised because he had just seen the bite marks that were very clearly visible on Mew's white neck.

Meanwhile, Mew, who was surprised by Win's scream, immediately covered his mouth with the palm of his hand, while his other hand motioned him not to make a noise.

Coincidentally, the camp they were in was quiet, so no one heard Win's scream just now.

"What's wrong with your neck, Mew? Who bit you? Your cheek too, looks like a wound from a slap. Did Gulf do this? Be honest with me, Mew"

Mew grabbed the paper and pen and wrote,

Sorry, Win. I can't tell you. I'm sorry. Please don't tell this to anyone.
He gave the paper to Win while looking down sadly.

Mew couldn't lie, but he also couldn't tell that Gulf was the culprit.
He really felt stuck.

Win felt sorry to see Mew's condition, which seemed full of pressure from someone.

Win suddenly hugged him and rubbed his back.

"It's okay if you can't tell me. I understand. We're friends, right? Next time, don't hesitate to tell me everything, okay? I just don't want my friend to keep his suffering and sadness alone" Receiving a gentle nod from Mew.

You have sent a very good friend to me returned Win's hug.

"Ekkhhh... hmmm... How long are you going to continue hugging?"
Said Gulf who was standing at the door of the camp.

Win and Mew were shocked, immediately let go of the hug and turned to the source of the sound.

"The event has started. Do you two want me to punish you?"
Raising an eyebrow.

"Come on, Mew, let's go." He took Mew's hand and when he was about to pass by Gulf, Gulf held Mew's hand.

"You go first. I have business with Mew"

"What business? Do you want to harm him again like yesterday?"
Staring sharply, he was met with a gaze no less sharp than Gulf.

Mew, who saw this, immediately grabbed Win's shoulder and gave him the look that he would be fine.

Mew is afraid that if this continues, Win will be in danger.

Win, who understood, finally gave in.

"If anything happens to Mew, watch out for yourself" Pointed at Gulf's face and walked away, leaving Gulf and Mew alone.

Mew, whose position was facing away from Gulf, didn't dare to look back.
He just stood still, looking down.

Gulf slowly approached and turned Mew's body to face him.

Mew, who keeps looking down, won't realize that Gulf is already 5CM away from him.

"Look at my eyes!"

Mew slowly raised his face and looked into Gulf's eyes.

Gulf's right hand moved to touch Mew's chin. Turning Mew's face left and right and rubbing Mew's cheek which was injured from yesterday's slap then tilted Mew's face up until his neck was exposed and showing the bite marks which were still clearly visible.

Gulf rubbed the bite mark gently with his thumb.

While Gulf was doing that, Mew was shaking in fear and thinking nonsense while closing his eyes tightly.

Gulf, who saw Mew's scared face, smiled happily. He brought his face closer to Mew's ear and whispered, "Don't disappear from my sight today. If you violate, you will know the consequences. Understand?" Mew gave a small nod.

Gulf hugged Mew's body tightly and sucked in the scent from the crook of her neck. Mew jumped in surprise because Gulf did something beyond his expectations. Hugged Mew's body for a moment then pushed him hard suddenly, making Mew fall backwards in a sitting position and hit the Camp tent.

Not long after, Gulf threw the turtle neck sweater he had been holding at Mew. "Wear that! I don't want to get in trouble because of you" Mew immediately put it on quickly.

"Follow me. The event has started" Turn around.

Mew got up without help and followed Gulf from behind.

What the hell did I do just now??!
I hug him? Tch! I'm sure, I'm still normal!!!! What's wrong with me lately?! Rubbing is face roughly.

Without realizing it, a pair of eyes had been watching them all along.

"FUCK!"
