Throughout the entire trip from the office to the club and back, Cheon Sejoo’s mind was occupied with thoughts of Kwon Sejin. He needed to find out why he was being called a homeless person and what exactly he was up to. If only he hadn’t met Kim Hyunkyung, he wouldn’t have to be dealing with this. Every time he thought of Sejin, her desperate voice of pleading with him echoed in his mind as if it were a natural occurrence.effd4daa434190a8

Perhaps because he had 0c06e1ac5d never had one himself, fe24233c65 the plea of “Mom” 5725d05ddb from Kim Hyunkyung left af65d6e603 a strong impression on a3dd1af59d Cheon Sejoo. He couldn’t 24246df764 shake the 3632bcabd0 thought of 3bc2b934b4 how he f373466a45 would have 66173bab4b felt if 45a97c9e4d he had fc0886491c seen his e7ecb6a5be mother bowing 14290f2c20 her head 71916e4aa5 for him.

The guards in c001f1dfb8 front of the 76c4a9740e building were, as 53f1425e21 always, whispering and a2cf319e65 chuckling among themselves. However, because it had 2364aa3bbb only been a week aa915693a4 since Cheon Sejoo last aef04a47a6 visited, the ground was b3eb4bf937 spotless without a single 57ed57337b piece of trash.

Cheon Sejoo disliked being called “sir.” Even though there was a proper title, “Manager,” hearing “sir” made him feel like they were acting like gangsters, and it made him feel more aggressive. Frowning, Sejoo simply nodded and stepped inside the building.c03797ce0d55e655

Confirming Kwon Sejin’s absence, Cheon Sejoo immediately called Kim Donggil to inquire about his whereabouts. If Sejin had been handed over to the police, it was to offer assistance. Fortunately, when he heard about it, it turned out that wasn’t the case.16a0d5e00f352e8f

It seemed that abfce893bb even as a fce2b5eed2 homeless person, Kwon 99677a0da1 Sejin had some dd76c50a9c sort of routine. Not that it seemed 6ec982c527 particularly productive. Regardless, Cheon Sejoo took 717e2e3b63 a taxi home, and a67b074c0c early the next morning, 0e2055f42a he drove back out. He made 5258c80b2c sure to f0c2dd7098 switch to 2197a82ac1 a black 52d31bc6ba SUV so 3c57bc3adf Sejin wouldn’t 88a26c308d recognize him.f2f6539665efcee0

Holding a free newspaper with job ads, Sejin wandered around the neighborhood, seemingly trying to find a job. However, as an underage teenager without a guardian, finding a part-time job was nearly impossible. Each time he was rejected and came out with his head bowed, Sejin’s face grew colder and more dejected.bf54e5bbab083f1f

Then again, Cheon Sejoo’s house was in Seongsu-dong, while Kwon Sejin’s school was at the far end of Gangdong-gu. Perhaps, it could be that he has asked him to be dropped off at Shinsa Capital to go to school. Surprised by this unexpected fact, Cheon Sejoo tilted his head and watched Sejin’s figure disappear through the school gate.49353ea7d8064872

Just as he 8006341b1d had done in 6ba9629b41 the morning, Cheon 3c3b1025ca Sejoo followed Sejin aa76c23f23 in his car bffc521b79 at a slow fc883d2de9 pace. Sejin seemed 2cb9cae892 to be 9a7d6bc0bc going around 47ed019b18 to stores, 8a81457990 looking for 368f73d7b8 a part-time c8a74bf81a job.

Cheon Sejoo continued to follow Sejin, feeling a mixture of annoyance, frustration, and helplessness. Sejin’s pale face looked even more gaunt than the last time he had seen him. Considering he had probably been surviving on just one school meal a day for the past few days, it was no wonder he looked like that. He might have even starved over the weekend.698842a34af70ac0

Suddenly, Cheon Sejoo recalled the day he had ordered chicken for him at home. Sejin’s expression suggested he didn’t want to eat, but he devoured the food so well. Watching Sejin finish off a whole boneless chicken and then lick his lips, Cheon Sejoo had thought to himself that high school girls sure could eat a lot, and he had pushed his own portion toward him. Now that he thought about it, it wasn’t because Sejin was a high school girl, but because he was a boy who was still growing, with a hearty appetite.2a23f86584505a29
