ā¦ā¦hymn for the wickedā¦ā¦
sooner or later thereās going to be an end, a gruesome one, and jinhwanās going to meet it head first, like diving into the ocean from the docks back on jeju island. he keeps tempting fate, itās a dangerous thing, and he knows yoora and min would kick his ass for continually trying his luck, dancing around with the devil wearing a smug smile.
he knows heās not doing himself any favors ā who just tempts fate like this? dumbasses thatās who. he canāt help it. this guy just interested him to no end, and he didnāt actually leave his apartment tonight to follow behind him. he was just walking to clear his head, so maybe he could sleep some, and there he is ā that strange fellow from the alleyway, talking that nonsense about ātargetsā and āmissionsā. heād been warned away, been threatened with unemployment (jinhwan still gets a good laugh about that), but heād be damned if heās going to just be scared away. fuck that, sir.
so he finds himself following after, and heās not really sneaky, because he wants to be, but because itās something thatās built into him, from back on jeju when heād sneak in, out, and around his own goddamn house. never a momentās peace from stares or whispers from his own fucking parents. itās just habit now ā sneak, tip toe, make as little noise as possible, and donāt get caught. avoid those judgmental looks.
he stops when the mysterious guy stops, pausing and listening. heās speaking into a headset? maybe a phone, but thatās irrelevant right now. itās what heās saying that draws jinhwanās interest.
------ āmission. no, lost the target.ā
missions and targets again, what the fuck even is up with this guy? oh, if jinhwan finds out this is some elaborate role-playing game or some shit, heās going to make sure the guyās in the fucking hospital for three goddamn weeks.
