'What if', he looked at Park Hun Jun who was learning to make a new dish just for him to try, "the person I will be hurting is him?".
Han Jun smiled and looked back at him, " Did you say something?".
"Nothing".
Park Han Jun was trying to make some crispy fried chicken that In Sik asked for. "Han Jun, On your face. .", J-Son said pointing at his cheek.
"Here?".
"Leave it, I will do it for you", In Sik said as he gently rubbed on his cheek, and cleaned it for him.
Han Jun smiled. "Oh, you are not going to thank me??", J-Son asked. Han Jun looked below at the bowl with a smirk on his face. "Okay understand, you are making it for me!!", he said puffing his cheeks.
"By the way, Why do you still call me J-Son? Sometimes you don't even call my name?"
Han Jun slowly took the pieces to fry in the pan, " That's because I got to know you as J-Son". In Sik laughed, "People change, relationship changes too. Now we are a lot closer than before, aren't we?", he asked.
"Then what's over relationship?", Han Jun asked back. It was a lengthy five seconds of silence, with the sounds of frying and J-Son replied, " Umm- we are colleagues or friends maybe".
"See I might not be here after 2 months, who knows. And I remember you as that so, ".
"Okay okay, I Should stop asking you such things to you, your answers are so old fashioned!", he looked at Han Jun's hand, "If it's done let's eat".

'I once had everything, even though I was an Orphan. I-', she thought to herself looking at her new born of 4 months. "I wanted to give you everything I didn't have, a complete family. But look at me. . ", she looked at her hands crying. "Now I have to destroy another's life to save mine".
She went back to the time; she first knew this person. The one she fell in love with, the one who gave her everything but, in the end, he took back everything with him. As she thought about, she had flashes of all the nice memories she once lived with. A life without debt, a life without struggles.
"If WE were still in good terms, still together-", she looked at the poster of the idol whom she tried to bring down, "Would I be living a happier life?".
She stood in front of the mirror, rubbing of the tears falling from her eyes. Untying her hair, looking at her reflection she laughed.
"I thought I could still handle it, without destroying you", she looked at her child, "now spoiling your life will only make mine better. . .".

"I heard that tomorrow we will learn the routine for your new song".
"J-Son", he looked at In Sik and tapped his shoulder, "What were you thinking?".
Kim In Sik looked back at him, Dazed, "Hmm - oh, my bad I was into this movie a bit too much. What did you say?".
Park Han Jun looked at him, "You don't look like you were seeing it. What were you thinking??".
"Nothing", he switched off the tv, "I think it's about time we go to sleep".
"Haa?".
J-Son turned back, "Good Night, Han Jun!!", he said with a wide smile.
Han Jun who had just sat beside him for a small chat time, wondered why he went to sleep earlier than normal.
Kim In Sik didn't actually sleep, all he did was stare at the walls thinking about what the woman said. 'Is it Han Jun?' is what was running in his head.
'Before it was me, now it's people behind me. Haha', he thought to himself, "How long am I doing this?".
"In Sik ahh", he came through shouting.
"Man Soo Hyung, what are you screaming for? That too this early in the morning??".
Man Soo was out of breath, it seemed like he ran down the floors. "That. . . Boss said now, that the choreographer of your new song is here to teach you today", he said.
"Hyung! Did you forget you had a phone? Cheh, running from there like that!".
Man Soo awkwardly laughed, "Oh, Han Jun you are here too, Good morning". Han Jun smiled and greeted back.
"Hyung—"
"I know, you are going to call me dumb again, please don't. I just escape. . ed", Man Soo looked at the expression on J-Son's face and paused.
The real reason he actually came in running was to avoid Director Ji.
Director Ji the clean freak might be scaring the crap out of Kim Man Soo as he has never seen him like that. Oh, what a change. Wait, nothing has changed. Man Soo was always scared of him, the only thing that changed is his reasons.
J-Son smirked, "Why did you stop?". He stared at him like a police officer catching him red handed,
"What are you talking about? I just remembered that I was here to tell you this so you don't be late and blame it all me. You always—".
"Okay Okay. Stop!", In Sik sighed. Han Jun who was cooking as usual, was having fun looking at this mother-son duo. Yes, Mother-Son.
"Han Jun, Don't you think someone here is using you a bit too much", Man Soo said to give J-Son his counter-attack.
"It's okay. I like to do these by myself", Han Jun said with an unchanged expression.
Kim In Sik slapped on Man Soo's shoulder, "HYUNG!", he faked a smile, "he does it because he likes to do it, I didn't ask him to".
"I think he-"
In Sik stopped Man Soo from speaking, by shutting his mouth with his hand, "Why don't you go? You being here, is what's making us late".
Man Soo shaked off J-Son's hand, "Then remove you hand, I will stop and will wait for you here itself!".
"Then please keep your mouth busy with some food!!!".
