Chapter 66 Men and their ego games

The next day after Jay had sent the Ivanov family to the US Jay went back the Incheon with Jeongin and his girlfriend. (It was an awkward ride.)

"What's with the awkwardness in here?" Jeongin broke the silence. "Jay is there something wrong?"

"Nothing. Just an image I can't get off my mind."

"Oh. What image."

Jay pondered over if he should come clean and tell then of what he saw the other day. "I just went into a certain someone's apartment at the wrong time."

"You mean mine?" Jeongin asked. "MINE?!"

Jay hummed a yes as her noticed Jeongin's girlfriend blush as Jeongin swore.

"Shit man. You saw my fucking sex life dude!"

"I didn't ask to see it Bull." Jay signaled him to be quiet as they were on a plane. "I'm going to leave the FL."

"WHAT?!" Jeongin shouted. "You are leaving us?"

"Not permanently. Just till I take care of the FA I don't want to involve the whole FL. Their main target should be me."

"Have you informed your grandpa yet?"

"I am planning to stop by the US within the week. I will tell him then."

"Alright man. Just give me call whenever you're in a sticky situation."

... ... ... ... ... ...

Jay and Jeongin parted ways after they arrived in Incheon. Jay planned to relax and prepare himself for the incoming battle. He signed up for a boxing gym and a set up a brutal workout routine for himself. For the rest of his time in Korea before heading to the US he would gain all of the muscle he must have lost slacking off these days.

He went to the boxing gym at 3pm and started his workout. The gym owner had cleared the gym for him so there was only a few people in the gym working out and sparring.

"야 재 누구임?" (Who's that?)

"몰라 아마도 신입일껄?" (I don't know maybe a newcomer?)

As soon a the head coach, who was a good friend of the owner noticed some slacking he yelled at them for not trying hard enough. After what seemed good enough for him he went over to the owner.

"That newcomer where did he come out from?" He asked in Korean.

"I donno he just said he needed a place to workout at so I told him the price and he paid double of the monthly price. But he apparently is going to leave in a few days."

"Is he loaded or somthin'?"

"It seems so."

Just then Jay walked up to where the two were standing. Jay towered over the two middle aged guys. His active wear drenched in sweat.

"Is your best boxer here today? I want to have a match." Jay wiped his face and neck with a towel.

"Let me see...This guy's ranked 5th in Korea." A well built man in his 20's came over after he beat up his sparring partner. "Aigo...Stop killing your sparring partners!"

Jay wrapped his hands and wrists with the hand wrap he then put on the heaviest boxing glove there is.

"No mouth guard?" Jun's eyebrows arched in question.

"Don't need them." Jay shrugged.

"Alright then."

Their sparring started and continued for over an hour before Jay's phone rang. Jay left the ring leaving Jun laying in the middle of the ring with bruises and exhaustion. "Time for me to go."

The next stop was an MMA gym which he worked out for over an hour before going to the last gym of the day which was a fitness gym. Jay was hungry after sweating so much so he went to a sauna/spa nearby which apparently had a good restaurant in the same building.

He checked in at reception, he noticed that the that the people were staring at him. Of course in Korea someone as tall as him is rare, also he has platinum blonde hair, not to mention the tattoo on his left arm. Being used to all of these stares he still walked at a fast pace into the men's change and bathing room.

He noticed that a lot of the youngsters had one or two tattoos here and their mostly on their forearm. The older generation of the men avoided the one with the tattoos for some reason. They especially avoided him.

With a towel wrapped around his waist he walked into the bathhouse. As soon as he walked in he noticed a group of teenagers and young adults lounging around not covering themselves up. He remembered that Jace said, 'In a bathhouse the one who wraps a towel around his waist to cover it up has already lost.'

'What a stupid thing.' Jay thought. But at the edge of his mind was the fire of competition. 'I know for a fact that I am way bigger and I'm better then those gangster wannabes.' He told himself as he found his place right by the group. The group immediately started giving looks at him and talking among themselves.

"Look at the wuss right there." One of them said.

"Right. He seems like a giant but the real thing is small!" Another added.

Jay kept growing irritated by the second. So when it was time to get up he purposefully let the towel fall exposing himself to everyone. He strolled to the showers and washed himself up before he went out getting dressed in another set of a training outfit. "Time to eat."
