Chapter 12.1 || Cruel Liar
Although Tennessee clearly said it would only be for today, Amber made the bed meticulously as if it would become their spot from now on. He even asked which side he should lie on. "It doesn't matter." "I'm sure it does." "..." Tennessee cleanly ignored the implication of those words. "Oh, are you very sleepy?" Tennessee, who had perfectly finished preparing for bed, including brushing his teeth, responded like Pavlov's dog from the moment Amber entered the room. His eyes, which had held…-

Amber Alert
A hit man. Tennessee had no intention of sugarcoating his profession. He stayed true to his morally bankrupt self and his past. It was a monotonous life, but he didn’t think it was bad. At least until he found something in the stolen car. “What’s your name?” “…I won’t tell you. You’ll laugh. What’s your name then?” “Tennessee.” “Is that your first or last…- 4.4 K • Apr 7, '25

AA Chapter 9 || Episodes
Perhaps that was meant to sound like a compliment, Tennessee thought as he wrapped his arm around Amber's neck. It was after he had finished his walk and returned to the hospital room. Amber naturally locked his wheelchair in place and moved close. The area around Amber's neck was very hot. When Tennessee put his arm around the hot nape of Amber's neck, Amber's hands touched his back and waist. Amber slowly lifted Tennessee into an embrace. Their breaths shattered into pieces against each other's…-

AA Chapter 8 || Nursing Journal
One day, Amber tilted his head at a missed call on his phone from a number he didn’t recognize. If it had been the call he was waiting for from Tennessee, the caller's number wouldn't have shown up. Above all, the number was long and started with 44. As far as Amber knew, all area codes in America were three digits. After scratching his head and brief contemplation, Amber called back. Surprisingly, someone answered right away. "Hello." From that first greeting, Amber realized that 44 was the…-

AA Chapter 7.2
Tennessee couldn't focus on work at all. People even seriously advised him to take a day off. He realized he wasn't separating personal and professional matters, but it wasn't something reason could fix. This was a first for him. If this had been a hit job instead of security work, he would have definitely messed it up. He couldn't go home. He couldn't forget Amber's helpless appearance, his soul twisted and wounded, exposed bare. Though he knew he had caused great shame and hurt to him, he couldn't…-

AA Chapter 7.1 || Discovery
After his last job with the FBI, Tennessee returned to Chicago. Strictly speaking, ‘returned’ wasn't the right word, since he didn't have a place to call home. But in Amber's mind, Tennessee's space was that place in Chicago. The one with rusty stairs but beautiful night views. By the time Tennessee purchased a three-flat apartment in Chicago, Amber had become a high school student in a private school from the same foundation as his junior high school. It was co-ed and quite large. They could…-

AA Chapter 6 || Chicago, IL
Looking at the already darkening sunset landscape, Tennessee sighed. Chicago's night view was so bright that it sometimes took one's breath away. Amber turned his head toward the window. Sitting quietly in this busy and noisy place, Amber showed none of the awkwardness or uncertainty typical of his age. The boys Tennessee knew at Amber's age were like that. Loud, always wanting to belong somewhere, and having something they'd stake his lives on. Friends, girls, sports, grades, and such things. Things…-

AA Chapter 5 || Reunion
Chicago O'Hare Airport felt exhausting every single time he was there. The building's interior was all grimy white, the corridors stretched endlessly, and people moved in groups, bustling about, occasionally bumping Tennessee's shoulder as he passed. They did say ‘excuse me,’ but hearing that after not sleeping for three days tends to be rather irritating. In the vast American land, Tennessee chose Chicago. One of the top 5 security companies, a multinational security firm, had its headquarters…-

AA Chapter 4 || Amber Alert
They said they would just talk, but the FBI agents handcuffed Tennessee. He didn't particularly complain. The advantage had already shifted to them. It was a game where the outcome was determined the moment you had more to lose. If Tennessee hadn't promised to return to the child, he would have somehow avoided this moment. He would have used Caylen as a shield, or fled without hesitation, killing everyone and risking getting injured. Then he would have looked back at the weight of guilt that would have…-

AA Chapter 3 || Stay here
The child had frequently experienced severe abuse in foster homes. He had grown accustomed to being beaten and believed his body might ache but his heart had grown calloused. However, today the child acknowledged that this wasn't the case. The child burst into tears from the sorrow and pain he experienced after a long time, or perhaps for the first time. "W-Where, hic, I was supposed to, hic, stay..." The child leaned his cheek against Tennessee's shoulder, who was notably quiet to the point of…-
