101: A true guardian

"Are you hungry? Let's go to eat something." Dae Ju asked his fanboy. The boy couldn't imagine he will say such things. As he can spend some time with his favorite person, he couldn't say no to him though he was forbidden to spend more time with him.

"Yes, sure!" he was surprised but answered.

"Okay! Then, let's go after changing!" Dae Ju said while putting off his jacket.

"Can you excuse me for one minute?" the boy said. They were near the changing room.

"Yes, sure!" Dae Ju said and wait outside. The boy went inside and seems like he was screaming out of joy. Dae Ju felt proud but also embarrassed.

"Kids nowadays!" he said and put off his gloves.

They were walking on the street. There was no crowd on the road as it was a working day. Everyone would must be busy with their works. There were no kids outside too. Some vehicles were running on the street. It was quite sunny and warm outside. It feels nice to take a walk after driving for a long time. He learned many things today though it was useless for him. But he was so concerned that it was his civil exam and that's why the trainer was quite satisfied with him. He praised him a lot. But the other boys were starring at him like they were gonna kill him.

"What would you like to eat?" Dae Ju asked.

"What about Pizza? I didn't eat pizza for long." the boy suggested.

"Sure! Let's go!" he reminds about Jong Goo who used to love pizza a lot. He likes plain cheese and his eating habit was weird. He eats all the topping and gives the bread to Dae Ju. Dae Ju eats the rest without hesitating. It became his habit whenever they ordered pizza. Dae Ju sighed remembering about those days.

*How're they doing? Are they fine? If something bad happened to them? What if Jong Goo went on a long tour alone again? Wouldn't he be scolded? What if Nam Gil broke his things again? He couldn't hear the laugh of Jung Haeok for a long time. He lied down when laughing. What if Tae Ri is depressed again? There is Min Jae who can support him. But what if Min Jae has been spending a difficult time? Who will condole him? Who will listen to him? There is nobody else he whom he shares his pain with.* Dae Ju was missing all of them. Suddenly he remembered that he found a medicine box in Min Jae's cabinet before the accident. He wanted to ask him about it but he got no chance for it. Was Min Jae hiding something from them? What was it? Why he was taking those pills? He never mentioned his illness though they live together and share a room! He can't remember the name of the medicine. If he could, he will surely find out why the medicine was made for.

"We are here! Where are you going? Is there another pizza shop near?" Choi San asked. Dae Ju was so concerned about thinking that he didn't notice they were near the pizza place.

"Ah! No! I didn't notice. Let's go inside!" Dae Ju smiled. Choi San was very excited and he went inside. Though he is older than Yeon Hoon, he was quite immature than him. While he is excited about pizza, Yeon Hoon is excited about his wife.

"No, She is not my wife. Not yet!" he told in his mind and smiled.

*But when he remembered about Yeon Hoon, he felt upset. Lina didn't let him go close to her. But she let Yeon Hoon to go close to him. Why she did it? Is she like him more than her husband? Well, now she knows the truth. Maybe that's why she felt uncomfortable. Okay, I will go close to her slowly.* he blushed when he was thinking about that.

"Which pizza will you order?" Choi San asked while looking at the menu.

"Yes?" Dae Ju couldn't hear and asked again. He came back to reality and tried to focus on his mission.

"Which one do you want to order?" the boy was totally unbothered and asked again happily. He showed the menu and asked.

"Whatever you want!" Dae Ju said.

"Oh! Really? I want chicken cheese! No, I want double cheese burst! Um.....which one should I choose?" the boy was confused.

"We will have a chicken cheese pizza and a double cheese burst and two cola." Dae Ju ordered their meal.

"Whoah! You are amazing! You really ordered both? Can't believe!" the boy wondered and said.

"If you want to stay healthy, you should eat a lot. You are quite skinny." Dae Ju smiled.

"But, I can't eat much! My hyungs ate all whenever they ordered food for us!" he said with a pouting face. Dae Ju couldn't hold his laugh.

"Really? They do that to you? Ah! Such bad big brothers! From now on, I will treat you whenever you get hungry, okay?" he consoled him.

"Really? Why you are so good?" the boy was still fanboying him.

"I don't know, I am just good! But, why they behave to you like that? Seems like they don't like you!" Dae Ju was coming to the point slowly.

"Because I am weak! I am not as smart as they are! I can't get anything by reading people's faces. Whenever they took me with them, they have to face danger because of me. I am trying my best but I just couldn't become like them!" the boy was quite disappointed in his life and Dae Ju could feel that. He felt pity for him too.

"I don't know how you are weak but for me, you are the best. You can drive very well. Better than me. You are quite smart too. The problem is you have a pure heart. And because of it, they felt jealous of you. That's why they behave with you like that. You have emotions for people which they don't have. That's why they are jealous of you. It's not a bad thing to be an angel." Dae Ju said. And he was not lying this time. Though he wanted to be close with him for his own mission, he couldn't deny the pure heart of the young boy.

"I don't know if I am that angel you are mentioning." he sighed.

"Why? Why you think so?" Dae Ju was surprised and asked.

"I can't tell you. They will kill me if they know." the boy almost cried.

"Ah! Then, don't tell me. I know how it feels when you have no guardian like parents. They follow the lead which they think right for their child. But, without them, nobody can teach the right path. I don't know how you lose them but it's quite disappointing for me that a boy like you have nobody to lead you the right path. I know, you have the knowledge to understand what is good and what is bad for you but if you have your mom or your dad, they must've warned you if you go to the wrong path. So, don't be so disappointed in your life. Just think that it's your destiny. And you can't change it so you must have to adjust to the environment. The world is too cruel. I know, that's why the pure people can't stay longer but you must give it a try. Never be dependent on someone else. Trust your fate and yourself. Follow your heart don't follow someone else. Just do what you wanted to. If you think it's not good for you, then give up on the way and take another path that will be right for you. I believe in you." Dae Ju said as if he was a class lecturer. But his words were too emotional for the buys that he couldn't hold his tears anymore. The waters started dropping though he was trying his best to not let them flow they didn't listen to him and they were flowing from his cheek like a fountain.

"What should I do? I don't want to do these! But, if I leave now, they will not spare me live!" he cried out.

"Ah! It's okay! It's okay! Let them flow. Come to me." Dae Ju stood up and went to him. He took his head and let it lean on himself to hide the boy's face.

"Every single minute is scary. I can't even die! They don't let me!" he was telling with an unclear voice but Dae Ju could hear him. He was patting on his head slowly to console him. He could feel his heart.

"Whoah! Look! The pizza is here! I haven't eaten for a long time! Let's eat now." Dae Ju said to make him happy. The boy raised his head for a while. Then he moves aside and starts wiping his eyes and cheeks. His nose was runny too. He wipes them with his sleeves and seeing this Dae Ju felt gross. But he remembered about his past. He was like it too. When they won the first donsang award, everyone was crying. They couldn't give a speech properly because they were crying. But he get some courage and wiping his face he started to give a speech so that everyone else can get encouragement from him. That time the maknaes were wiping their nose in the same way. What if this boy comes to their agency? Wouldn't it be great? But, first of all, he has to see his talent. Dae Ju thinks that he will take him to Karaoke to see his talent. He looked at him. He was drinking water. He has the standard face. His eyes were big, a small nose was not looking bad on him. He has the jawline and it was better than him.

"What are you looking at?" Choi San asked when he saw Dae Ju was looking at him without blinking.

"Ah! Nothing! Eat up or else it will get cold." Dae Ju moved his eyesight and pointed at the pizza and said. The boy took a piece of pizza and start eating. "Hyung! No, I am sorry! Mr. Rumi!" the boy called while eating.

"It's okay. You can call me hyung. It's been a while since I haven't heard it from anyone." Dae Ju said while smiling.

"Hyung! Look!" the boy was eating cheesy pizza and the cheese was spreading long.

"Wow!" Dae Ju laughed while finding him cute.

"Did you go to karaoke?" Dae Ju asked.

"Yes, but, it's been a long. But I want to go again. Do you know, I can sing well." the boy gets excited.

"Then, what about going there? I want to see you singing!" Dae Ju said.

"Oh! Really? Ai! I will go! But, what if they got angry on me?" the boy was excited but also afraid of the others.

"You can come to me if they got angry with you." Dae Ju smiled.

When they were walking on the road, they saw a group of boys on their way.

"Oy! Where are you going? Come here!" the boys shouted. Choi San was looking afraid after seeing the boys.

"Who are they?" Dae Ju noticed and asked.

"Nobody. Let's go from here," he said.

"Oy! You are ignoring us? You think you can?" they were coming to him. Choi San increased his speed and nearly ran but they got him.

"Hey! Don't you dare to escape!" a boy said and hold his collar. Dae Ju was watching from far and now he got that Choi San is being bullied by them.

"Boys! Stop it! Let him go!" Dae Ju was quite soft while saying.

"Oh! You have a bodyguard? Let's see what can he do for you." saying this all the boys grabbed him like they are gonna crush him.

"Leave me! It's hurt!" Choi San started groaning.

"Looks like you guys are waiting for a show! Then, let the showtime begin!" he said and went to the boys. The boys were totally unafraid of him. They make Choi San kneel down.

Suddenly Dae Ju couldn't bear it anymore and he doesn't know how but he was quite strong. He started to wash them like they are clothes and they need to be washed properly.
