I want to live with my face, boss.
19. Something made up of pieces
전정국
"...."
I couldn't believe it. The brother I'd been searching for in my dreams was right before my eyes, and he was someone I was close with.
My head started to throbbed and hurt. For me, it might have been the second biggest shock of my life.
전정국
"Uh...ah..."
김태형
"Are you okay...? Well...it must be quite a shock..."
전정국
"(...) Yes. I can't believe it, but... since it's reality that you're my older brother... I have to believe it. It's strange that you're only telling me now, but I guess you had your own reasons."
김태형
"...Thank you for understanding me..."
전정국
"..Then...what should I do now..?"
김태형
"..."
김태형
"...It's a shame...but we have to kill your boss."
전정국
"...But...Boss...is the one who raised me in place of my father..."
김태형
"Jungkook... I completely understand how you feel. Even if I took you by force and killed your father, he is still the father who raised you."
김태형
"That's why I hid it from you too. I thought you would be sad and shocked."
김태형
"But... there's a problem. Your boss, who saw you being friendly with me, is trying to get rid of me and doesn't want you to know about it anymore."
김태형
"It was like that even now"
전정국
"...ah..."
I looked at the medicine in my hand. At that moment, all the pieces began to fall into place. The reason my brother didn't want to fight me, and even the way my boss had treated me all along.

전정국
"...brother."
전정국
"...I have a question."
김태형
"..What is it..?"
전정국
"..Why on earth...why was it me that the boss wanted...? Why on earth?"
김태형
"...that..."
전정국
"Why...why did it have to be me...? What on earth is the reason?"
김태형
"..No one knows that..The reason..Only your boss knows."
전정국
"...Then...I guess I should go see the boss."
김태형
"...Lee Jungkook...no, Jeon Jungkook!"
전정국
"That's the only way to hear the truth."
김태형
"....(Stopping Jeongguk) Don't go, Jeon Jeongguk."
전정국
"...What are you doing? I feel like I need to hear the truth before I can believe you."
김태형
"If your boss hears you know he's my brother, he'll kill you. Don't go."
전정국
"..It doesn't matter. My body has already been damaged beyond repair. I'm not afraid of getting hurt anymore."

"Ugh..!!"
전정국
“(Glaring at Taehyung) What are you doing!”
김태형
"If you get hit just a little on the injured part, it hurts like this, so where are you going?"
김태형
"It's not a bad idea to go, but if you want to go, then go when you're better. I have to stop you."
전정국
"...Are you saying you want to try it with me now?"
김태형
"In a way, that might be true. I can never let you go."
전정국
"(...) Then... there's nothing I can do."
Whoosh-
전정국
"...Ugh...ugh!!"
Apparently, I had thrown a punch at Taehyung, but he was fine. Instead, I was hit hard in the area I was injured, and the pain was unbearable.
전정국
"Ah..uh..ugh.."
김태형
"...ha..."
김태형
(Sit Jeongguk down) Jeongguk... I don't want to hit you either. So... please don't make me angry."
전정국
"..Ah..Ugh.."
...I was bleeding. The wound had split open from being hit with a single punch. At first, I didn't realize how weak I was. But foolishly, after taking a single hit like this, I realized I was still a patient.
김태형
"...It's bleeding. Look, I told you not to push yourself too hard. If you were bleeding like this when I hit you, you probably wouldn't have come back alive if you went to find the boss."
김태형
"(Holding the handkerchief) Hold it tight. I'll call a doctor."
전정국
"...ugh..."
