I love you
episode. 6
The text message was from none other than Jung Woo-seok.
김준면
" ha... "
이석민
"Boss... Is that text from Jung Woo-seok?"
김준면
" uh... "
Even without saying anything, Seokmin seemed to know who was contacting him.
김준면
"You know it even without me saying it."
이석민
"I've been working with the vice-president for over six years now, so isn't it strange that I don't know?"
김준면
"Phew, that's true."
My head started to hurt a little, maybe because I kept thinking about Jeong Woo-seok.
And being in the hospital room for days on end was a bit boring.
김준면
"I'm going out to get some fresh air."
이석민
"Shall I go with you?"
김준면
"No, I can walk better than before, so I can go by myself."
이석민
"Are you okay?"
김준면
"Yeah, it's okay. I'll just be going back and forth in front of the hospital anyway."
이석민
"Okay, if anything comes up, please contact me."
김준면
"Yeah, yeah."
Still, it was much more comfortable to come out for a bit than to stay in the hospital room.
As soon as I got out, I quickly called Lee Min-hyeok, and luckily, he answered the phone right away.
이민혁
'Hey! What's going on~'
준면
'Didn't I tell you not to call me that?'
이민혁
'Why~ I like it when you call me like this?'
준면
'Yeah... It was my fault for asking.'
이민혁
'But what's wrong? You wouldn't just call me.'
준면
'You're very perceptive in this regard...'
이민혁
' Heh- So why did you call~ '
준면
'Could you please select the best from your organization and send them to us?'
이민혁
'Yeah, that's possible. But what's going on that's so bad that you're taking our kids with you?'
준면
'I'm going to catch Jung Woo-seok soon.'
이민혁
'Are you okay?'
준면
'I'm not that weak~'
이민혁
'I'm still worried though... Then can I go too?'
준면
'Well, it would be good if there were more people.'
이민혁
'See you next time, Jun!'
준면
'Uh~'
After making that phone call, I returned to the hospital room, and when I entered the room, I saw Choi Seung-cheol sighing in relief.
최승철
"Haa... Kim Junmyeon, where have you been?"
김준면
"I went to the park in front of the hospital for a bit."
최승철
"I was worried something might happen."
김준면
"Nothing happened. Hahaha"
최승철
"Oh right... Junmyeon, I have something to say..."
I saw him mumbling and hesitating, even though he had something to say, so I asked him why he couldn't say anything.
김준면
"What can't you say?"
최승철
"Hyo-seop said... that you are very psychologically unstable. So I was wondering if you would consider getting some counseling..."
김준면
"I'll think about it after I catch Jung Woo-seok... Right now, I just want to focus on catching him."
최승철
"Okay, so you went out because you had a headache thinking about him?"
김준면
"Yeah, I knew all about it."
최승철
"I got it from Seokmin, but what was that kid thinking when he contacted you..."
김준면
"Yeah, haa...."
While I was resting for a moment, Hyoseop came to my hospital room saying he had something to say.
김준면
"Huh? Hyoseop, what's going on?"
안효섭
"Ah... I have something to talk to you about. Can I talk to the vice-boss for a moment?"
김준면
"Oh, really? Seokmin, just go out for a moment."
이석민
"Okay, I understand."
김준면
"What do you want to talk about?"
안효섭
"Boss, are you feeling dizzy these days?"
김준면
"...Yeah, I've been feeling really dizzy lately."
안효섭
"So, I've prescribed some medicine for you. If you're really in so much pain that you can't stand it, then take this medicine."
김준면
" thank you- "
안효섭
"But don't take too many at once. Take no more than two at a time."
김준면
"Okay, thank you. Our Hyoseop~"
The next day-)
After resting well at the hospital, the day finally came for me to be discharged.
안효섭
"Boss, you know you shouldn't overdo it, right?"
김준면
"Yeah, I know."
안효섭
"I originally wanted to tell you to rest more, but I know you hate hospitals, so I'm sending you there..."
김준면
"As expected, our Hyoseop knows me very well~"
안효섭
(Dori Dori) "Anyway, please hurry and go... I have something to do... Oh, right, if you're sick, you should take the medicine I gave you yesterday."
김준면
"Yeah, I got it~"
최승철
"Where are you going now?"
김준면
"Why don't we stay at the hideout for a while? I'll see our kids too, right? Haha."
최승철
"Okay~"
이석민
"Get in, I'll take you safely."
Since I hadn't reconciled with Chanyeol hyung yet, I had no choice but to stay in the hideout.
And more than anything, I had to prepare to catch Jung Woo-seok, so it was more comfortable to stay in the hideout.
I took a quick nap on the way and found myself already at the hideout.
이석민
"Boss, they're all here."
I woke up to Seokmin's words and quickly went into the hideout.
조직원들
"Hello, Boss!!"
김준면
"How are our babies?"
최승철
"Oh my... Those disgusting guys are babies...?"
김준면
"Why~ They are such cute babies to me."
최승철
" okay... "
김준면
"First of all, both Team A and Team B, focus and listen carefully. We're going to go take down Organization K soon, so don't let your guard down and train hard. If you guys catch me, I'll have to get both teams together. Understood?"
조직원들
"Okay, I understand!"
김준면
"Seungcheol, I'll go into the room first."
최승철
"Huh? Uh uh..."
My head started to hurt because I was so focused on catching Jeong Woo-seok.
김준면
"Ahh...! Haa...."
I quickly took out some headache medicine from my pocket and swallowed two pills with some water.
김준면
"I've been having headaches a lot lately... "
I closed my eyes quietly and wished this would end soon.
I don't want to be sick anymore.
The next day-)
The day to go catch Jeong Woo-seok has already come.
I was planning to leave as soon as Lee Min-hyeok arrived, but he didn't come even after waiting for 10 minutes.
김준면
"When is Lee Min-hyuk coming..."
It was not until 12 o'clock that Lee Min-hyeok arrived leading his team.
이민혁
" Appearance!"
김준면
"Hey, why are you so late? Do you want to get hit?"
이민혁
"The main character usually appears late!"
김준면
"You sound like the main character. Let's go quickly, we'll be late."
It took about an hour to get to the K organization.
As soon as I arrived, I saw a silhouette, and as I got out of the car, I could tell that the silhouette was Jung Woo-seok.
정우석
"Brother, are you here?"
김준면
"I don't have time to greet you leisurely."
정우석
"Phew, as expected from our brother."
김준면
" shut up. "
정우석
"Huh... My brother has a rough mouth. That's why I like him."
김준면
"I told you to shut up, stop making people go crazy. So why are you doing this?"
정우석
"Hmm... I miss my brother after a long time?"
김준면
"Ha- You have another purpose, so why don't you just blow it?"
정우석
"Hey, I said that because I miss you, hyung? Haha"
김준면
"I will definitely take you with me."
정우석
"I wonder if that's possible? Hey, bro, wanna make a bet?"
김준면
"Now you're showing your true colors. A bet? Let me hear what it is."
정우석
"If my brother wins, I'll be dragged along without a second thought... If I win, my brother becomes mine?"
김준면
" it's crazy? "
정우석
"Why, are you not confident?"
김준면
"Who said I wasn't confident? Haha, okay. Let's make that bet. But I won't be yours."
Everyone looked at me with worried eyes, but I was confident in this fight.
최승철
"Suho, are you okay on your own?"
김준면
"Yeah, I'm fine."
최승철
"I'm worried..."
김준면
"If it's dangerous, I'll call you. You take care of it quickly. I'll deal with this one."
최승철
"Okay, I got it - if it's dangerous, call me!"
정우석
"It's been a while since we've seen our brother's skills, right?"
김준면
"Shut up and get started, shall we?"
정우석
"Well, that's what you want, hyung. I have to give it to you."
puck-)
First, Jung Woo-seok struck the player, and the kick was just enough to avoid.
정우석
"You managed to avoid this?"
김준면
"You're not weak, are you?"
puck-!
Jung Woo-seok was hit squarely by my fist, and his cheek turned slightly red because of my fist.
정우석
" under... "
puck-!)
김준면
"Whew...."
From then on, Jung Woo-seok avoided my punches and kicks.
정우석
"Brother, you've gotten a lot weaker?"
김준면
" shut up. "
Thud-! Thud
정우석
"Ah.. blood.. kyaak- phew."
There was blood at the corner of Jung Woo-seok's mouth, and he spat it out onto the floor.
Thud! Thud-!
김준면
"Ugh..."
The moment I showed an opening, Jung Woo-seok took advantage of that opening and started strangling me.
김준면
"Ugh...!! "
He tried his best to free his hand, but it was stronger than he thought and Jeong Woo-seok didn't move.
정우석
"Brother, you've gotten a lot weaker?"
김준면
"Ahh...!! "
정우석
"It's kind of strange that my brother, the legendary sub-boss, can't do anything to me like this."
김준면
" ha... "
Just as I was about to lose consciousness, Woo-seok took his hands off my neck, and I fell to the floor helplessly.
Minhyuk's point of view-)
As soon as I saw Junmyeon collapsed, I quickly ran to where he was.
이민혁
"Protection!!!"
이민혁
"What the hell did you do to Suho!"
정우석
" ........ "
I kept yelling, but Jung Woo-seok remained silent.
이석민
"Boss...I'll contact the medical team."
최승철
"Oh, contact me quickly."
이석민
"Boss... Mr. Hyoseop asked me to transfer the call..."
안효섭
'The medical team has already departed.'
최승철
' uh.... '
안효섭
'Is there anything else wrong with you, Vice-Boss?'
최승철
'There's a strangulation mark, and my heart is still beating, but it's starting to fade. Please come quickly..'
안효섭
'I'll go quickly.'
Seungcheol's point of view-)
Fortunately, Junmyeon did not go into cardiac arrest, but his breathing was weak and he had to be put on an oxygen mask for a while.
And since Jung Woo-seok said he would go to the hospital with me, I had no choice but to bring him along.
Junmyeon was hospitalized again just a few days after being discharged.
안효섭
"In this state... it will take a while for the sub-boss to wake up."
최승철
"It's because of me..."
이석민
"It's not because of the boss..."
안효섭
"If anything goes wrong, please call me immediately."
최승철
" huh... "
이민혁
"Jung Woo-seok, why don't you say a word? It's because of you that Su-ho became like this. Don't you feel sorry at all?"
정우석
" ....... "
최승철
"You stop too... Junmyeon wouldn't want to fight like this either."
이민혁
"But...!! Haa..."
최승철
"I know how you feel... but let's calm down a little."
이민혁
" okay... "
최승철
"I'll be out for a bit. Seokmin, please take care of Junmyeon."
이석민
"Okay, I understand. Have a nice day."
After moving to a quiet place for a moment, I immediately called Hyojin.
Fortunately, I received a call shortly thereafter.
김효진
' hello. '
최승철
'Uh...Kim Hyo-jin...'
김효진
'Why does your voice sound like that? What's wrong?'
최승철
'Huh...'
김효진
'What happened to Junmyeon?'
최승철
'...Yeah, Junmyeon is in the hospital room right now...'
김효진
"Are you hurt? What happened that you're in the hospital again...?"
최승철
'We fought with the K organization to catch Jung Woo-seok. In fact, Jun-myeon hasn't recovered yet, so we wanted to hospitalize him more, but you know very well that Jun-myeon hates hospitals.'
김효진
' yes... '
최승철
'I wanted to stop him too, and I wanted to fight alongside him when he fought Jung Woo Seok, but he said he would fight him, so I had no choice but to leave it to Jun Myeon. But then I suddenly heard a loud noise, so I went to check and Jun Myeon was lying on the ground. There was a strangulation mark on his neck... It was definitely Jung Woo Seok's doing.'
김효진
'What? You crazy bastard... How dare you... Junmyeon... Where is the hospital?'
최승철
'JS Hospital...'
김효진
'Okay, I'll go with Seungjun Lee soon.'
최승철
'Yeah, come slowly.'
He was guarding his seat next to me until Hyojin arrived.
At around 4 o'clock, there was a knock on the door, indicating that Hyojin had arrived.
최승철
"Seokmin, please open the door."
이석민
" yes- "
Knock knock-)
The sound of the door opening was heard, and Hyojin and Seungjun came into the hospital room.
최승철
"You're here...?"
김효진
"Haa.... Kim Junmyeon, you really make me worry..."
최승철
"They said it might take a long time to wake up because my condition is not good..."
이승준
"Whew..."
Even when Hyojin and Seungjun, who were Junmyeon's favorite friends, came, there was no movement.
All I could see was Junmyeon lying there without saying anything.
The day after tomorrow-)
Hyojin's point of view-)
It's already been about two days since Junmyeon woke up.
All I could do was stay by your side until you woke up.
이승준
"Hyojin, I'm going out for a bit."
김효진
"Oh, I'm going..."
Seungjun Lee left the hospital room, and Junmyeon and I were the only ones left in the room.
김효진
" ....It's been a while since I've seen you, but my heart aches just seeing you lying there like this."
김준면
" ......... "
김효진
"I couldn't come when you wanted to see me, and I'm sorry I came to see you now... Junmyeon-ah... Hehe-"
김준면
" ........ "
My tears fell one by one into Junmyeon's hands.
I've rarely cried like this.
김준면
" eww..... "
I was startled by Junmyeon's voice and asked him if he was okay and if he recognized me.
김효진
"Kim Junmyeon... Are you okay...? Do you recognize me?"
Junmyeon couldn't speak because he was wearing an oxygen mask, so he nodded quietly instead.
김효진
"Haa... Heuheu-... I was worried."
김준면
' Sorry '
Junmyeon said 'I'm sorry' with his mouth shape.
김효진
"What are you sorry for? You don't have to be sorry. I'm glad you woke up, so don't be sorry."
김준면
(nodding)
김효진
"Should I call Hyoseop?"
김준면
"No, Hyojin, please stay with me a little longer..."
Junmyeon spoke with force, and although his voice was cracking, I could still hear what he was saying.
김효진
"Yeah, yeah, I'll be right here. You don't have to force yourself to speak. You might hurt your throat-"
He stayed by Junmyeon's side to make sure he wasn't lonely, even though he was anxious.
About 20 minutes after waking up, Seungjun Lee came into the hospital room carrying a large plastic bag.
이승준
"Junmyeon woke up-?"
김효진
"Yeah yeah, I'll call Hyo-seop, so Jun-myeon stays next to me."
I wandered around the hospital hallways and found Hyoseop walking towards me from afar.
안효섭
"Uh...Hyunjin, what are you doing here..."
김효진
"Junmyeon woke up..."
안효섭
"...!! Really?"
김효진
"Yeah, I woke up a little while ago... haha"
안효섭
"I'll be there soon, hyung, you go to the hospital room first."
Hyoseop smiled happily after seeing how Junmyeon was.
안효섭
"Fortunately, there's nothing wrong. Haha"
김효진
" thank god. "
이민혁
"Hwaaang- I'm glad Kim Junmyeon woke up.."
Lee Min-hyuk cried out loud in front of Jun-myeon.
김준면
"ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Oh my, our Minhyuk is a crybaby~"
이민혁
"Hmm, oh my... You don't know how worried I was..."
김준면
"I know~"
이석민
"That sub-boss..."
김준면
"Huh? What's going on?"
이석민
"Should I let Jung Woo-seok in...?"
김준면
"Yeah, tell them to come in."
As soon as the guy named Jeong Woo-seok entered the hospital room, Seok-min grabbed Jeong Woo-seok and knelt in front of him.
김준면
"You have nothing to say to me?"
정우석
" no. "
김준면
"Why are you speechless? You're the one who caused harm to the J organization, right? "
정우석
"I'm saying this because I like you, hyung. Don't you know it yet? Haha-"
김효진
"You crazy bastard..."
김준면
"Seokmin, take him."
So, Jeong Woo-seok was dragged away by Seok-min.
And I said what I really wanted to say, even though it was difficult, with courage.
김효진
"....Junmyeon, is this job a good fit for you?"
I wanted to tell Junmyeon not to do something like that because I had suffered so much, but I couldn't say anything because he was the type of person who hated saying things like that.
김준면
"Well, sometimes it's hard and I want to give up, but I'm happy when I'm with my kids, and more than anything, I don't want to leave Seungcheol alone, so I want to keep doing this."
김효진
"If you're happy, that's fine. I'm glad-"
김준면
"Thank you... haha and I'm not always at the hideout so I'll come see you guys when I have time."
이승준
"Yeah, come anytime - we'll always be at the cafe."
