PEN Vol 4 Ch. 2
From the rooftop of Hankuk University Hospital, located in the heart of the city, he could see the darkened cityscape spread out below. The city, dotted with red crosses, looked like a giant tomb. A hot wind, as if rising from hell, blew from it, carrying the heat of a tropical night. In that heat, Cheon Sejoo blamed himself. When he first heard the news of Kim Hyunkyung’s collapse, what if he hadn't hidden it from Sejin, as she had asked? What if he hadn't accepted her explanation about dieting and…-

On the morning of December 29th, Cheon Sejoo had a long conversation with Shin Gyoyeon about what would happen after Kang Junmyeon returned to Korea. Several strategies were discussed, but since Shin Gyoyeon wanted to interrogate him personally, Cheon Sejoo and the disposal team planned to kidnap him as soon as he returned home on January 4th. He was a long-time member of the organization and had established his own power base, so considerable resistance was expected. Therefore, Cheon Sejoo reviewed…-

At Sejin’s quiet question, another sharp pain shot through Sejoo’s head as if it were being stabbed with a knife. He found out. So that’s why Sejin didn’t return to the hospital room. With this belated realization, Cheon Sejoo closed his eyes tightly and then opened them, lifting his gaze. He saw the redness around Sejin’s eyes. Sejin stared at Cheon Sejoo with a desolate gaze and asked again. “Was it that day? The day you went to Ehwagak alone.” “…….” He was…-

Cheon Sejoo leaned back in his chair and looked up at Kim Hyunkyung. Her sunken cheeks were tinged yellow with jaundice, her lips dry and cracked, an oxygen tube inserted beneath her prominent nose, and IV lines connected to her arm. Now, could no longer see Sejin in her face. Cheon Sejoo clenched his fists, remembering Kim Hyunkyung, who had smiled casually in front of him last summer. Regret always came suddenly, driving him to despair. What if he had insisted on taking her to the hospital that…-

Just like that, Cheon Sejoo came out of the alley, unseen by anyone, and immediately went straight to the roadside, taking out his phone. He was much later than the time agreed upon to go to the hospital, so he wondered if Sejin had tried to contact him. Just as he held his phone in his hand, Sejin's call came through. 7:00 PM. Checking the time, Cheon Sejoo gasped as he saw the dozens of unread messages displayed on the status bar. He immediately pressed the answer button and brought the…-

Cheon Sejoo, lost in thought about Han Jonghyun’s real identity again, suddenly burst out laughing at Haewoong's words. Han Jonghyun, Shin Gyoyeon’s lover? It was a ridiculous rumor. While most people who knew Shin Gyoyeon were unaware that he was a psychopath, Cheon Sejoo knew. Han Jonghyun had been under Shin Gyoyeon for a whopping five years. Cheon Sejoo didn't think that crazy psychopath would cherish someone for so long. However, at Cheon Sejoo’s chuckle, Haewoong refuted him with a…-

Reflection 3 November arrived, ushering in winter. A cold north wind, laced with a chilling air, began to blow, stinging their cheeks. It was a season where the wind was becoming quite harsh. Cheon Sejoo, wearing a black padded jacket and a cap pulled low over his eyes, sat in an old, unheated van, sipping coffee. White steam puffed out from the slightly opened lid of his disposable cup. As he savored the bittersweet aroma, Haewoong, who was sitting beside him eating snacks, yawned and…-

“…….” Sejin puffed out his cheeks and stared blatantly at Cheon Sejoo. As if telling him to look as much as he wanted, Cheon Sejoo closed his eyes, resting his chin on his hand. Sejin stared at his gently lowered eyelashes before getting up. “I want to see it up close.” At Sejin’s softly whispered words, Cheon Sejoo opened one eye and then shrugged. As he stretched out again, leaning back against the sofa, Sejin got up, put down the blanket, and approached Cheon Sejoo’s…-
