Jin-Ae:)
"Jin-Ae?" I was struggling to fight for myself, just when the voice came in my way which led me to lose the lead, as my heart crumbled by the sight of my brother standing at the door.
"B-r-o-t-h-e-r?" my lacerated voice, made his eyes softened at my state but as I was about to get up, that guy clasped my wrist and made me hit his chest with back, sheathe a hand around my neck while brandishing a knife, jeopardizing my brother, in addition now I was the scared one.
"If you dare to step ahead, your sister would lose her life, the choice is yours," at the end of his phrase some laughter made its way but kinda savage.
I gritted my teeth, facing the defeat, in addition, cursed myself internally because just a few moments before I was the one who sounded dominating, but now this bastard.
I was snapped out of poor thoughts by my brother's voice.
"Seems like you aren't frightened of-" he couldn't get a pause due to Ari's utterance from the back.
"Here's your way to get you down," she said sarcastically while making some way from the police to enter.
His actions loosened while I got the chance to kick him and back off from his grip.
"Brother?" I ran into his arms while some sheds showed off on my face, he wiped and hugged me tighter. That's when I felt safe and relieved with the breath of relief.
The police handcuffed him but his face was still covered, so I instructed them to take off and they perpetrated.
"What are you doing here? and why?" brother moved further in his direction and gave a blow on his face which made him hiss in pain but not a single word spilt out from his mouth.
"Tell me?" this time he sounded as last warning but he didn't shudder a little.
Again punched him in the face, but got waste so he pulled the gun from the grip of one of the policemen and pointed at him.
"Tell me otherwise you would lose your life here?" I laughed at his words, repeated.
He laughed at my brother which boiled blood in my veins, as I filled the space in between to give him a good hit on his cheek.
"Aren't you frightened for your life?" I whispered, showing him off my pissed off state.
"I won't be if you get me a chance?"
"You bastard," the brother shouted and hit his head with the end of the gun which made him lose some blood.
"Tell me otherwise I won't hesitate to pull the trigger," this time brother let loose some giggles in his direction.
"Go ahead," what the heck, wasn't be anxious to go off his life just to keep the name of the individual under sheets.
"Are you sure?"
He nodded.
But as brother planned to commit sometimes offensive, the policeman stopped him.
"Sir, you can't do that here please, take him to the station and we will get you a call if come across any information from his side," the brother understood their point of view, but before handing the gun into their hands, brother hit him again which made him fall on the ground being helpless.
"Son of bit*h!"
'What did just brother say dirty, oh yeah he did it before no need to be shocked,' I laughed internally that brother just talked dirty in front of me because he never did before so it kinda looked surprising to me.
"Take him," he said out in annoyance and soon his presence didn't get before us which relieved me to heaven.
"Are you alright?" his worried tone made me smile, nodded.
"Are you sure? I was so worried for you," her angelic tone dropped in my way, I hugged softly while giving her a head nod.
"How was the party by the way?" I asked
"How do you expect? Just business talks, nothing special," I laughed, it was obvious to get bored in those business parties as I said earlier.
"I agree, that's why I didn't wish to go," I said while adjusting my hair in a bun.
"Hm-hm, if you would agree then I guess you didn't have to face this," he was right, but being stubborn, I didn't agree.
"Brother I didn't guess this, otherwise I would have gone with you, do not exaggerate," he nodded while stroking my hair with a peck on my forehead.
"Alright, get down I am hungry I didn't have anything there, I will cook something," Ari said, to which I agreed and climbed downstairs arm in arm with hers.
"What you wanna have?" I asked.
"I will cook!"
"Oh my sister-in-law, you must be tired, get changed and I will make something until," she nodded and moved back to their shared room after caressing my face lovingly.
And getting inside the kitchen.

Ji-Hoon:)
"Hello, I have sent you the photo, get me the information about him till next morning," I was really frightened when I came to know that someone sneaked into our house, but the most by the fact that he would harm my sister.
I changed into sweatpants and tried to catch up with the thoughts of him being here and how did Sung-Ho come to know about this.
But before I could make some sense, my phone rang, I took it out and his caller ID dropped insight.
"Sung-Ho,"
_______________
Sung-Ho:)
Nothing was scaring me more than him harming her, not knowing how many negative thoughts crossed my mind in a matter of seconds, I just wanted her to be safe.
"Don't worry, her brother would have come there," he comforted me by arming my back.
I nodded but still that urge to know her well being, I panicked.
I ran my hand through locks in frustration because I couldn't save my life from danger around her. These thoughts make me hate myself, earlier regretting the thought of leaving her there alone and now this.
"Shit!" I cursed and punched the nearby window which made a small cut on my wrist.
"What are you doing? Are you lost?" Justin scolded me hard and soon grabbed the first-aid box from the drawer.
"Don't panic, alright. We called him on time and besides the fact, he said he is on the way back home so don't think much," yeah, his words worked out for me but nothing could change the fact that I was the one to leave her alone there if I wouldn't have done that, might be she wouldn't have to encounter this.
"But I couldn't even save her from her troubles, I don't deserve her, this fucking love," I uttered profanity again while peeping out of the window, contemplating tying the street full of people.
"Shhh, don't say bullshit, you are very far from her, even if we knew from one hour, you couldn't do anything besides letting somebody know relative to her," he was done with applying a bandage on that cut and patted my shoulder.
"Thank you!" I said while passing the smile to him.
"Why though, for applying a bandage?" he stood against my sight, hand on either of his torso.
"No, but being here with me!" he laughed which made me raise my eyebrow in confusion.
"Why are you laughing?"
"Nothing, don't mind,"
"Tell me why you laughed?"
"Just got to hear this from you," he sounded sad for some reason in the past and I didn't wish to make him sad coming up with his past hurts again.
"Ah ah, I gonna stay here with you to say that man," I offered him to hug him and he accepted while approaching me with a big smile on his face.
"Alright, get him a call to know whether she is alright?" I nodded while grabbing the phone from the nightstand.
"Hello?" I said.
"hey, Sung-Ho?"
"How is she?" I straight came to the main point.
He chuckled
"Thank you so much for calling me otherwise didn't know what you have happened btw that bastard is under the custody of the police," I breathed some air of relief.
"Thank God,"
"Yeah, she is a fighter, she controlled his actions very well with the knife," he laughed and I joined after hearing that phrase of him.
"Yeah, I guessed it right," I sarcastically whispered which he understood.
"Hm, but how did you know about this incident," he asked and I got stuck with how to make it up.
"Ummm.... my friend had her number so maybe he would have called her," I spilt the truth.
"That's a relief,"
"Hmm,"
"Alright, bye,"
"Bye!"
"She is alright and that guy had been arrested by the police," I told Justin and he was too relieved knowing that she was good.
"That's good,"
I nodded.

Ji-Hoon:)
I laughed after hanging up the call with him, he deserved to love her, staying at far but still dared save her.
"What made you laugh?" she asked while getting out in comfortable clothes.
"Nothing!" I shrugged off the truth by getting busy with some stuff.
"Don't hide,"
"Ah, just got to talk with Sung-Ho, he asked if Jin-Ae was alright," I said.
"oh, Was he the one to tell about the incident?" she asked while grabbing the space beside me.
I nodded.
"Wow, he saves his love so well even staying far from her, must say," I smiled at her phrase which I just came across in thoughts.
"Yeah, but I can't say that for how long she has to wait for him to come back?" I let out my insecurity with her.
"Don't worry if he could take care of her from there, then I believe that he would make her upset being the reason for,"
"Let's see,"
"I believe he would!"
"Alright, let's get down to eat food, you haven't had there," she whispered and soon I pecked her forehead before leaving the room to climb downstairs.
