"Focus on your work". Reproach Yoon-gi when he returned to meet Jackson who just silently sewn on his own forehead while growling low, without caring about his work.
"How can I focus when my own son disappears!". His rampage broke the table.
"Mr Wang regulate your emotions, we'll soon have news of Uji". Chan, her right hand said soothingly while Yoon-gi rolled her eyes off guard.
TOK TOK TOK
"Master has important information for you".
Hopefully this is the information you want.
"Come in". The door that had been knocked open displayed Minho, he bowed before delivering a sentence.
"I can already estimate Ryujin's location".
And finally!
The statement made Jackson stand from the seat of his greatness, the look of his originally messy face berahan published his light.
"You are a smart man. Tell me where my son is?".
"He was worshipped by his friend Lee Heeseung, I think he was in the boy's house, sir".
"Heeseungis... Who her?".
"He was just a schoolboy and went to school where Ryujin was on a mission".
"Did anyone else come there?".
"Taehyung and his son are also some of Heeseung's friends who seem to have stopped by Mr".
"alright.. Do your job Min, you gotta make sure nobody else knows when I go there".
Yoongi, who felt, just sighed and re-occupied himself in front of the computer with his random and strange writing, prepared to access CCTV cameras or things like that.
As if he had a way out, Jackson's eyes flashed. He walked over to Minho, hugging and even poking his curled hair.
"Thank you Minho. Now get my car and some of my subordinates ready, we go there".
Everything will start from the starting point again, Jackson just needs to go to Ryujin, convince her, then take her home. It's simple, but Jackson believes it may take time to convince Ryujin.
But anyway, the boy has to come back.

"Well through".
"uh? You sure?".
"What do you mean, of course this is the place".
"It's not like an old barn?".
"Yes, it was intentional to look messy outside".
Ryujin searched the entire yard of the wooden house filled with high traffic, of course there were many questions he asked but he paled and would immediately see it with his own eyes.
Kai who saw Ryujin kept silently observing it began to chuckle softly and continued walking leading Ryujin to follow him.
Sabahat during his childhood was opening a padlock that locked the rusty fence as high as his chest, sounding a loud scream from the friction of the old hinge.
Continue walking towards the dusty terrace of the house, even the creeping plants have begun to slap on the fragile walls of the house.
"All right. let's go inside". He said after successfully opening the door using a key that rang the track twice.
Kai went in there first. Ryujin even fell silent looking at the black sedan car parked a little far across the motorbike owned by Kai, his uncle embraced his request.
"Rul". Kai exclaimed from within.
"Ah yes.. I'll be there soon".
Home oh what this place can be called home? At least there was one place with a white door that Ryujin believed was a room, and a small land sengai simple living room with a long gray sofa there.
Unlike the situation in front of the house, Inside here looks very clean and neat as it is handled regularly.
"My dad and I took care of this place". Kai spoke as if answering a question.
"Ah, but why did you bring me here?".
"To be honest at first I was hesitant to tell you about this, but on the one hand I also did not want to continue to hide it from you".
Ryujin was silent to mean for Kai to continue with his words.
"I don't know what you're reacting to this, but earlier I also represented my father wanting to apologize deeply to you, Ryujin".
"Just show me what you want to show me".
"Huh.. okay". Kai walked towards the white door, took another key from the pocket of the jacket he was wearing and tried to open it.
KIYETTT
"Come in, it's your time".
Ryujin walked slowly into the room.
"It's..."
Bed, nightstand with some photos, polaroid, guitar, poster, brown taped light blue stickynote and doll next to it. Last little silver box in the middle of the bed there.
It was all hers. Ryujin.
That's why when he came to his house there were no belongings of his. Ryujin glanced at Kai behind him with an angry expression as if saying "why didn't you show this to me earlier?'.
"sorry". One word Kai could utter for everything.
Ryujin began to swing his legs closer to the bed, sat on the edge of the mattress and grabbed a small silver box there. Kai takes Ryujin's actual study chair, and sits down to Ryujin.
They made eye contact before Ryujin refocused himself on the contents of the box in his lap. As she remembered her mother told her to open it by the time she was 18.
Bodo time with that wedge. While muttering apologetically to his mother, Ryujin opened the silver box. Inside there is a necklace with jewels and paper that is getting worn out.
The blue-eyed necklace was still shiny and beautiful, but Ryujin grabbed the paper underneath which made her even more curious. Returning to look at Kai in front of him, Kai just nodded and Ryujin opened the paper.
...To our little princess...
...Hi my son, Ryujin.....
...Maybe when you read this little letter you've grown up, I hope my daughter grows up healthy and happy....
...Forgive mom and dad who rarely give you time with us, but rest assured we love you, very much....
...If you are older, you may also have realized that there is something strange but also magical happening in your body. For that we also apologize, forgive us Ryu....
...When you were very young, we once took you to meet a doctor we knew. I don't know why he was so interested in you, then he said he was working on a project that needed a toddler at the time. Your mother and father must have been surprised and tried to subtly refuse it, but she still forced and recklessly injected you with the strange liquid by force. You cried loudly, mother held you tightly, your father shouted angrily at his doctor friend who also looked surprised at the action....
...But it's too late, the liquid spreads fast on Ryujin's body. We have always brought you every best doctor, but the answer is the same they do not know in that field. Only a certain doctor can handle it....
...Inevitably we came back to the doctor's residence which made you like this, but to his horror he did not know to prevent the spread, we were so angry and casually he said that... The liquid will help you someday, and the effect of the liquid is only a few years. ...
...The effect of the liquid is to heal the wounds on your body, any wound and the speed of healing it according to the size of the wound. Do you still experience it? It's weird, but if it can take care of you we're grateful....
...We hope you never or make a wound to yourself....
...Moreover, we hope we can still be by your side when you read this letter....
...At the end of this letter. Mom and dad just wanted to give a little gift, put on that necklace....
...We've been shadowing her, the necklace is beautiful in you....
^^^Our beloved little daughter,^^^
^^^Ryujin^^
Kim So Hee & Kim Namjoon

One, two, three, and growing tears fell down the little letter he was reading. Ryujin did not wipe it, he just let the salt water flow as he wanted, along to wash away the tightness he felt.
Kai approached her. Stretching his hands gave wordless instructions to Ryujin vaporizing the contents of his heart in his decapitation.
For a few moments they hugged. Kai did not say a word, but the big hand was unrelenting to just wipe and pat gently soothing.
Ryujin was the first to keep his body away. With my face red from crying, he forced the tears for her to force. Kai takes his handkerchief and hands it to Ryujin, the little hand picks it up.
Somehow reading the letter which was clearly hand-written by the mother and fixed directly on her it made her heart very sick in appeal to hear from others that both her parents had nothing, which he does not trust completely.
"Why is it now?". A raucous voice that makes the heart of the listener vibrate.
"I know whenever it is, reality hurts".
"Whether I should be mad at you or I thank you for this. To be honest I'm disappointed".
Kai looked down, closed his eyes. She knew Ryujin would definitely feel that way to her, the whole night she had been thinking of her. And Kai will not regret if after telling him about this Ryujin will be furious and even scold him after this.
"The chance to convince me that you love me".
Kai looked back into those eyes again. His mouth as if paralyzed could not be moved to express the contents of his heart.
"I-I, I'll take care of you Ryujin. I promise".
Finished, the word that came out was so short compared to the one on his heart. Kai looked down again.
Kai further deepened his head hump, not daring to look into those eyes caused by him.
"But...". Kai opened his closed eyes, with a broken he tried to back up.
"You are still my sabahat. The only thing I consider to be family is left".
His whole face puffed up, looking back at that face. The face seemed to see his light, a small smile on the reddened face.
Kai clenched his lips with a face full of warm haru as well as eyes that had dewy almost crying. Ryujin stared at his small chuckle.
Kai bumped his body again hugging Ryujin's small body. While the master only chuckled with right tears dripping down.
"I'm-I'm afraid you hate me. You know I love you, very, very much love you". Her racoat still tightens the embrace.
Again and again Ryujin just chuckled. "You're so funny".
"It's nasty". Kai moved away from his body, still knitting with his red face. Ryujin raises his hand that is still grasping the handkerchief, directing it at Kai.
He slowly wiped away the tears that flooded the white face of the man in front of him. "You're ugly in this way, stop crying".
"I'm like this because of you. I feel so guilty about you". Her great-grandson at the end of the sentence, took over the handkerchief in Ryujin's hand.
"Right if I feel disappointed in you, but it turns out my love for you is bigger".
Kai re-attached his nose and almost dropped Ryujin's body again to hug him, but Ryujin pushed the eel with his index finger and his arm drove Kai away.
"It's over with my time if you keep crying".
Kai retreated his body did not accept but quickly changed his face as before. He glanced at the shiny blue necklace that looked beautiful.
"That can. would you like me to put it on?". Bargainly.
"Oh yeah. please". Ryujin gives up his necklace on Kai and flips his back.
Kai draped the silver chain, hooking it with certainty. "Already".
"Thank you". Ryujin clasped and looked at the necklace.
"True, it's perfect for you".
"You're overreacting.so, what are we gonna do next?".
"Are you satisfied in your room?".
"I can come here sometime, right?". Back to her ask.
"Well, of course whenever you want".
"Then, now take me to go see mom and dad".
"Ryujin".
"Yes, please take me there".
"Hello aunt's uncle, Kai brought someone".
Kai shifts his body to let Ryujin advance and get closer, bringing his limp feet with a glass shelf between himself and the ashes in the urn inside.
"Mother... Ryu's coming".
Ryujin spoke softly while his eyes did not stop staring at the picture frame of his parents and the jar was not too big beside him.
"Sorry, this time Ryujin visited you".
"Ryujin has grown up, Ryu has eaten well too, Kai is always by my side he's a good friend isn't he?". Ryujin sobbed slightly lowering his gaze.
"Sometimes I wonder why you're the only one who's been picked up by God? Why not with me, so that at least there won't be this kind of complicated thing going on right now". Ryujin looked up with a water circle that began to fall.
"Why not take me with you?!". Unconsciously the vibrating sound was getting higher while hitting his own chest that felt tight it was getting sicker.
"Sttts... Ryujin, relax". Kai approached her, hugging her body tightly back, dispelling her hand to keep hitting her own chest. I let Ryujin hit his sturdy back.
"It's not what uncle and aunt Kim wanted". Kai tried to speak as soft as possible right in the ear of the friend's blush.
Ryujin starts to stop his punch, and drops his whole body in Kai's arms. "You're just tired until you're this desperate".

"I didn't think we were gonna go here".
The three stared at the small house with two floors to the left of the car that Heeseung was driving with the help of Lia as a guide to the direction of the road.
"Yes, we're there". Lia got out of the car first.
"Whose house is this?".
"Uncle Kim". Answer Lia short.
Now the three have been right in front of the door of the house that since they only looked at it, Lia who was right in front of the two men behind her braved to knock on the door.
TOK TOK TOK
Silent for a while, Beomgyu and Heeseung only exchanged lyrics to signal between the eyes because there was no answer until a while they lived.
Lia tried to knock it back, hoping for the sound of the owner of the house to whisk from inside. However, the voice was even heard from behind where they stood.
"Who are you looking for? Oh Lia!".
The voice that was initially suspicious of the three people who had been standing in front of the door of his house was immediately lost when he saw the familiar face of his best friend.
Sunoo, remember? classmate Lia who has fox-like eyes, approached and slightly bent her body when she realized two other people beside Lia who she recognized as her upperclassman.
"What do you need to do here?". Her question gave the lyrics to the three impromptu guests before her.
"Em.. yes, Sunoo-yaa I have a need with your father, is he home?".
"Oh my dad's out somewhere and doesn't know when my dad's coming home".
"Ahh so". Lia gestured to the two people who had been silent behind her.
Heeseung who realized with a stutter entered the chat. "K-kalo so we'll be back if your father has come".
Heeseung was just preparing to step on his feet but Sunoo again made a sound. "You wait inside until my father comes".
The three looked back at Sunoo. "I thought you guys were being pushed by something, and waiting might not be a bad choice?".
Sunoo's words made the three silent in each other's minds, in their hearts agree with what Sunoo said that they were actually desperate. They have no other choice.
"Isn't it a problem?". Beomgyu now makes a sound.
"Why do you think I offered you guys to come in?". Sunoo's answer got a snort from Beomgyu.
"You're just three?".
"Yes, just us". Sunoo's mouth formed a round and small nod. "That's it, let's go in!".
"Alright, thank you Sunoo". Heeseung commented on his smile which Sunoo replied with a nod.
The owner of the house opened the dark blue main door wide to allow the three to enter. After being confirmed the three entered Sunoo became the last person to enter as well as closing the door back and locking it from the inside.
...~...
"Sit down". Sunoo led his guests into a special guest room. "I'll make you a drink, what do you want?".
"White water saj-".
"Cola if there is one". Beomgyu interrupted Lia's speech, after the three had just landed their buttocks on the long sofa there.
Had sighed softly Sunoo returned to give his smile. "Okay, wait a minute". And when his body turned over the smile it was gone.
Lia rolled her eyes puffed with Beomgyu's mannerisms whereas the empress simply put her shoulders aside indifferently.
Unlike the two, since his foot was stepping into the house Heeseung continued to engrave eyes, observing every inch of the room he entered.
"Is his father a doctor?". Ask her with both irises of eyes staring at a frame on the wall of the room.
"To my knowledge, his father was a doctor... I don't know, but I've heard it too that her father is a psychic".
"Chaa, orders are coming". Sunoo came cutting Lia's speech, with a tray that contained 3 cups of cola drinks with ice and several types of snacks.
"It's hot, enjoy it". He continued while serving drinks and food that he brought to the table.
"Aigoo thank you very much". Beomgyu who was leaning straight snatch a glass of cola and sipped it, do not forget the delicious sound of his 'ah' shortly after up to half a glass.
Heeseung and Lia just shook their heads and thanked Sunoo. Sunoo puts himself on a single existing couch.
"Nobody ever came here, you finally came". Sunoo said cheerfully.
"We didn't come here to see you, if we wanted to know". Beomgyu suddenly spoke ketus with his hands that sucked a light cake in front of him and ate it.
"We have business with your father". And then, with a mouth full.
"I told you, dad still hasn't come home somewhere he didn't say".
"When did your father come home?".
"So she goes wherever I don't know especially when she's coming home". The wrinkle on the white forehead of the milk was enough to make them know Sunoo was too upset to answer the question Beomgyu threw.
"Partially, you'd better stay here..". The host's words hang.
"..You said you only came in three, right?". He answered a nod. "then as I walked home, I saw strangers in the car watching the three of you, isn't that weird?".
Wait, what?
Of course it's a strange thing, very strange!
