"Coward."

Min-Jung stared at Alex speechlessly. "You're supposed to say something," He reminded her with a smile.

"And what would I be doing while the world thinks I'm dead? Where will I live? Where will I hide? What about my mother?" Min-Jung asked him helplessly.

"Do you trust me?" Alex asked, looking deeply into her eyes.

"Do I have a choice? You saved me from death after all," Min-Jung said nervously.

"You shouldn't just trust people. I can be far worse than these people, you know," Alex warned her. "But you're right to trust me. I can't say I've saved your life if you end up being killed by them again, can I?" He asked. 

"Don't worry. I'll take you out of the country with me. Your mother will have to remain here so they don't get suspicious when she suddenly disappears. Besides, I think they might feel guilty and want to care of her after your death. That way, your mom can monitor them," Alex said thoughtfully.
