It was one of Sungmin’s biggest fears, truly, and one that he knew he’d have to face eventually. That he’d be spotted somewhere around the city by someone he used to know, someone who still had connections to the very people he was hiding from. He was always paranoid, always glancing over his shoulder when he found himself anywhere outside of Howler territory, anywhere he could possibly be exposed to prying eyes ready to turn him in to the ruthless gang he’d stolen from years ago.
So when quite the familiar face entered his line of sight, stepping out from a building across the street decked out in glittering jewelry and facing right in his direction, Sungmin panicked. He felt frozen for a moment or two too long, eye contact prolonged far too much to simply pretend to be someone else and be on his way. Fuck--- how could he be so careless? For years he’d managed to avoid eye contact with any Nightbloods member in neutral territory, and he slipped up now because...? Because he felt bad? Because he had really truly cared for the person looking back at him this time?
Averting his gaze, he continued on his path as if nothing had happened, hoping with everything he had that Kitty would just be on his way and never speak a word about it to anyone. But of course that was just an aimless thought--- Kitty had been much like a little brother to him at one point, he could only imagine the kind of consequences he’d caused by disappearing on him the way that he had.
