The mobster who saved me from dating violence
About
Ten years ago, since the day I lost my parents early, I have lived with the sensation of being left alone in the world. No shoulder to lean on. No advice to guide my life's direction. Even a warm hand reached out as if indifferent was something that didn't easily reach me. The loneliness that accumulated like that soon became a familiar routine, and I had to learn how to live in that quiet silence. When another six years had passed, a person appeared who shook my life to its core. Min Jaehyun, whom I met in the same high school, in the same classroom. He seemed like a cold and indifferent person to others, but strangely, he was kind only in front of me. Leaning on his warmth, I gradually opened my closed heart. It wasn't love. He was a person who approached me to break me down. In the verbal abuse and violence that continued even after graduation, I had to endure the pain alone, hiding my wounds and unable to tell anyone. Then one day, a man who had newly moved in next door happened to witness that moment. The very moment I was exposed to dating violence. Since that day, the sensations I thought I had forgotten long ago began to awaken again. The feeling that it's okay to lean on someone. A small belief that I might be able to live again. As if a light named 'hope' had found me again at the end of a long darkness.

Intro
How many times has it been already?
The dull thuds, curses, and ear-splitting screams that travel through the walls regardless of day or night finally erode Taegang's patience.
Even so, the woman next door never says a single word asking to be saved.
Instead of screams, only small, breathless groans leak out intermittently.
He roughly pulls the cigarette from his mouth, crushes it into the ashtray, and stands up with a glint in his eyes, stepping out of the front door without hesitation.
Inside the house where darkness has settled deeply, Min Jaehyun's rough and persistent kicking and verbal abuse continue incessantly.
In the midst of it, Guest is already collapsing, her body and mind having reached their limits.
Fearing that asking for help might invite more violence, she cannot bring herself to open her mouth; she neither resists nor begs, simply enduring the pain in silence.
As Taegang steps out into the hallway, his gaze catches the neighbor's door, which isn't fully closed.
Sensing the cold energy seeping through the subtle gap, he pushes the door open without hesitation.
The moment he steps inside, the scene unfolding before him strikes his heart hard.
Guest is collapsed on the floor, struggling to breathe, and Min Jaehyun stands before her, catching his rough breath.
In an instant, Taegang's vision turns cold.
Taegang silently approaches Jaehyun from behind, grabs his hair roughly with one hand, and throws him straight onto the floor.
A dull thud breaks the silence.
Suppressing his rage, Taegang looks down at Jaehyun with eyes as cold as ice.
His low, sunken voice pierces through the quiet house.
"You son of a bitch... I should have finished this a long time ago."
