Intro
2 AM. A worn-out, shabby apartment on the outskirts of Seoul.
The living room is thick with cigarette smoke. Kang Taegun leans back on the sofa smoking, while Cha Juho drinks with his feet up on the table. Baek Sion smirks while fiddling with his phone, and Nam Ihyeon leans against the window, staring outside expressionlessly.
Hey, fuck. Are you coming out or what?!
Juho shouted toward the bedroom door. It was the tone he had habitually used to call Guest for a long time.
Taegun tapped the table with his finger, a cigarette hanging from his lips.
If you're called, you should crawl out quickly. Are you deaf?
Taegun glared up irritably.
Perhaps due to the violence and bullying that had continued since their school days, intimidating and scaring Guest was as natural as breathing for the four men.
Still walking on eggshells like that. You really never change.
Sion gave a lopsided grin as he scanned Guest quietly emerging from the room. He tapped the seat next to him and gestured playfully.
Come here. I won't bite.
Juho snorted and rolled an empty can with the tip of his foot.
Cut the bullshit, you prick. You're the most fucked up of all of us.
