"I'm..." Song Ho stuttered. He did not notice he accidentally spoke whatever inside his mind.

"Tell me! What is it?" Lee Jun shouted at his face. Realizing they were currently inside hospital, with a lot of eyes around, Jun lowered his voice.

"What is it?" He still grabbed hard into Song Ho hand.

Song Ho sighed tiredly and ran his hand to his face, he knew he could not hide it any longer. He did plan to tell Ji An, however the situation right now was not something he imagined he would face.

"Later." Song Ho replied, suddenly he looked five years older. Even though Song Ho had promised to tell them, Jun still tightly held him without any intention to let him go.

"I promise. I will tell you later. I believe Ji An should know about the truth. It would be fair to her." Until Jun heard the reason behind his intention to delay, then he released his grip towards him.

"You better keep your promise."

Just then, a nurse called from the door behind them,"Family of patient Song Ji An. The patient has been safely transferred to the recuperation ward. Anyone want to visit, please follow me."

The two guys who had intense battle, now meekly followed the nurse. Both eager to see Ji An condition.

"I failed! Damn!" The angry bodyguard was now smashing his liquor bottle against the dirty wall. He used to be a respected bodyguard for Congressman Park. Now, he needed to hide himself in this dumpster. The wall was supposed to be white color, but the dirt had made it turn greyish in color. There were roaches and rats running around the premises as if slowly taking control of the whole place for him. It reeked of alcohol combined with piss. There was no heater inside this abandoned building, and a small fire had been lit up to provide necessary warm. Enough to keep him alive. He was not only throwing liquor bottle, he was so angry that he started to smash leftover furniture left inside the building. There was a broken chair with one leg missing, but he grabbed the chair and smashed it repeatedly towards the wall until no one could recognize its original shape.

Wood chips flew in every direction with every smash and some scratched his skin and let only a small amount of blood oozing from the wound. His body was full of sweat, blood and alcohol stain. He had not taken a proper shower nor shave. He looked more and more alike with bandits in those pirates movie.

Since his face was published by the local police, he could not even rent a decent apartment to stay. His house was now surrounded by police and they were taking shift to stake out outside his house. There was no way for him to get closer. He couldn't even call his own family to ask about their condition. He was afraid the police might tap their phone conversation and could track his whereabouts.

His eyes blood-shot from alcohol. Since he was dismissed from his duty, he spent his time to hate Ji An and drink alcohol. Today failure was even made him rage even more. His reputation was on the line. He had nothing to lose.

Knowing that Ji An condition would need medical assistance, he had requested his old connection to locate Ji An. Now, he just need to wait for the news.

First time failure was forgivable, but there was no second chance. This time, he needed to end her life for real.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Both Jun and Song Ho waited in silence. Since there was nothing to do, Song Ho waited outside made a call for Detective Jo. He wanted to file assault charges for whoever did this to Ji An. Also, he did not forget to let Ha Na know about Ji An condition. After all, Ji An might feel more relieve to have another girl rather left alone in the room full of testosterone hormones in the air.

While waiting for Ha Na to come, Song Ho dropped by hospital cafetaria to buy some coffee for him and Jun.

When he reached his room, he could see Jun did not move an inch from the original spot, right beside Ji An. He kept holding her hand.

"Lee Jun-ssi, may I know why you know her?" Song Ho remembered that he did question him before over the phone, but due to the emergency of the situation, he did not pursue further.

"She is working as my manager, that's how I knew her."

"And how could that happen? It would seem there is no coincidence that could make you, international top star to be close to Ji An."

Jun couldn't bring himself to bring forward about their slave contract. Fortunately, right at that moment, the door was slammed open and Ha Na was there, sweating and panting.

"Song Ji An." She rushed back to Ji An side and looking at her friend condition made her cry. "Ji An-ah, what happened to you?" Her hand was tracing her pale face, now full of bruises. The bruises had turned ugly, to greenish color.

"Who did this to her?" Ha Na shot angry look towards the two hunks inside the room.

"We don't know yet. I have filed report to police, he should be able to let us know after further investigation."

Ha Na quickly took another seat beside Ji An. Right at that moment, Ji An eyes fluttered softly which made Ha Na excited and stood up immediately.

"Ji An. Song Ji An." Ha Na kept calling her name.

Ji An slowly opened her eyes, which she closed immediately. Too blinded by the white hospital light. She felt lightheaded and tired. Her whole body felt sore and painful, like it was not hers.

She wanted to open her eyes again, but something dragged her back to the bliss darkness. She did not want to wake up. At least not now.
