Dabin was looking at his surroundings, praying there's no one around. If he was arrested at sixteen years old, his mom is going to kill him. But if he doesn't do what he have to do, his fate wouldn't be better.

He took a deep breath before then pulled the thin iron bar out from under his sweatshirt. After a last look around, he slipped it between the window and the door of the car in front of which he was.

Despite the advice of the stranger three years ago that he chose to follow, months ago he had found himself in the wrong place at the wrong time, resulting in bad company and debt owed. He had that last mission left, to steal this car and he could get away from all of this.

He had been shown how to pick the lock but this car didn't seem to want to make it easy for him. Unfortunately, he heard an "Hey!" and turned to see a man, a police badge hanging from his belt. Dabin widened his eyes, pulled the iron bar up and started running in the opposite direction.

Sunghwa was coming out of the nightclub where he was a bartender, he had finally finished his shift and was eager to go home. He was looking at his phone when someone rushed at him. The shock made him turn around, finding himself face to face with the stranger who quickly apologized before starting to run again.

A few seconds later, a second man pushed him aside making him growl in annoyance. He barely had time to catch sight of his badge when the policeman started running again without even looking at him.

Sunghwa blinked several times, the face of the first boy appearing to him. He had grown up but he was sure it was the young boy at the tree back then. He had the same adorable round cheeks and the same big eyes.

His eyes... He looked terrified... He couldn't leave him like that. He sighed, then took a perpendicular alley. He knew the neighborhood like the back of his hand, down to the smallest detail.

After about 30 seconds of frantic running, he slid his head toward the main street. Dabin was approaching quickly, Sunghwa had managed to pass in front of him.

As the teenager walked past the small alley, he felt his arm being pulled to the side, being pulled into that alley before a hand slid over his mouth. He wanted to scream but couldn't do it, Sunghwa pulled him behind a dumpster, ignoring the resistance of the youngest.

Once hidden, they heard the policeman stop beside them, Dabin calmed down so he could not hear his heavy breathing. Eventually the man walked away and Sunghwa released his hold on the younger. Dabin whirled around before freezing.

"Hyung ?! He exclaimed before Sunghwa placed his hand over his mouth again, giving him a stern look.

- Hush! Yes it's me. The older man whispered, withdrawing his hand to flick him on the forehead.

- Ouch! Are you mad ? Dabin whispered, pouting, rubbing his aching forehead.

- Can you explain to me why you got a cop up your ass ? Sunghwa asked, hands on hips.

- I don't know ? Tried the younger one with an unconvincing pout.

- Okay, that's really funny. Now I just saved your ass so tell me the truth. The older one demanded.

- I tried to steal a car... Dabin muttered, lowering his head.

This answer earned him another stern look of his hyung and a second flick.

"Why are you doing this ? Sunghwa exclaimed.

- I ... I did what you told me, I went to class I promise ! But... I had some problems and this was my last task... Dabin explained piteously. "

It had been three years since he had seen this hyung, but yet he felt ashamed to disappoint him. Sunghwa was really sad that Dabin had been involved in this kind of bad company, his dongsaeng looked really sad and scared.

"Get away from all this crap. And give me your jacket. Sunghwa ordered.

- I do what I can. And why do you want my jacket ? Dabin wondered.

- To save your butt. Retorted the older one, removing his coat. "

He took off Dabin's jacket himself before putting it on, dressing the younger one in his coat.

"But what are you doing ?! Dabin exclaimed, surprised at this exchange.

- Wait ten minutes before you go home. I'll take care of your cop. Sunghwa said firmly, holding his shoulders to listen.

- But... you don't have to do that... I have to give you back your coat... I don't even know your name... Delivered the younger one.

- I protect the adorable 13-year-old boy I met. I'm sure we'll see each other again one day. And my name is Lee Sunghwa. Now shut up and stay hidden."

Dabin had no time to reply that Sunghwa had slipped away. He had found the policeman a few alleys further on, the latter had recognized him thanks to the jacket and had come to join him. The young man had feigned innocence and outrage, playing on the fact that he had no compromising evidence about him. The policeman had finally let him go, not without threatening him little subtly to find him later.

Dabin had listened to him and left home ten minutes later, guilt and gratitude weighing on his shoulders. Three syllables were repeated in a loop in his head : Lee Sunghwa.
