(Mint POV)
"In this all messed state we all forget about Eric, where is he? can anyone contact him?"
I called to all to check their phone if they received the call. then I asked Kim to make a call to Eric.
"he didn't pick up his call."
"try again."
I stated it's already being this much chaos and now he isn't picking up his calls.
"Nope."
"Should we wait or go in search of him."
"I think he is been somewhere safe, we should wait. and look at us we are now were to find him."
"true, Mint we should take a break and wait. if he is all right he will definitely call us back in no time. or else we will find him in the morning."
I was worried but as they stated the situation, I agree not to take more tension, and we moved in.

(Eric POV)
I was running all from my strength in the body. they were chasing me from behind. I heard one of them shouted grab me fast and take me down and take me instead to their boss. I was terrified but still, I should run in order to escape from them. at a certain moment, I was thinking not to look back because If I did turn back maybe I got capture by them. I was focused on my ears on their running foot sound in order to track them. but when I can't hear them from my behind I finally turned in order to see where they went. when I turned back I see none of them was behind me. I stopped!
but, I didn't look try to know where they went and stepped forward to the main road in the purpose to take but to P'Han's home.
at sudden! a wooden plank flies over my face a kissed with a slam. I fell down.
"Aaah! what was that?"
I looked in front of me. they were standing. before I can make or speak any further. they harshly started to kick me.
"Stop!!!"
I cried out and trying to defend by bending like a baby in the worm in order to protect it from any major injury.
(Meanwhile, 2 men were crossing from the site. they see him. they saw Eric was getting beaten. they quickly ran to stop the fight. they engage themselves and best the people to run away from there leaving behind Eric alone.)
I see there were 2 men beat those bastards run away. I was dissed but can clearly see those men's figure.
they look quite muscular and handsome like 'Oppa.'
"Thanks, P for saving me."
"Are you ok. should we take you to the hospital?"
one of them asked me.
"Yes. I'm ok but no need to worry about the hospital."
I replied to them. and trying to stand. but I think at that time it was designed to me to fall. my legs didn't support my weight. I literally fall down but somehow to grab before I fall form that Korean "Oppa."
(The whole scene was like a scene from a rom-com Korean drama. 'yes that zing thing maybe', the man never thought That He will for someone from a first site. He doesn't know why but he was staring at his eyes continuously. while holding Eric in his arms feels like he was Finally looking into his other half.)
"P, what are you staring at."
the man his sense into normal, hold Eric properly. but as it seems Eric wasn't in the condition to walk. so the man asked Eric to take him in the back and gave him a back ride. to the bus. and asked his friend to help him to take him to Eric's to the hospital first.
"No, P, I don't want to bother you more just take me to the bus stop ill go from there."
but the man refuses by saying.
"I am your saviour, I'll not let you go like this. your condition is not like you can walk yourself back. let us take you to the hospital first. and I'll call the police first."
"No, P doesn't call them. I don't want any trouble."
"ok"
(he was surprised why Eric denied, but it was none of their business so they left that part. Eric asked them to take him to Han's home they took him to Han's home instead.)
-------------------------
"Oh, thank God you are alright."
(Mint hugged him and thanked the God that he was alright.)
"where were you? do you know how much I was worried about you?"
"I'm sorry P, I lost my phone so I didn't make a phone call."
"It's ok, by the way, who are they?"
"Oh! They are the people helped me that with those people and also helped him to come here."
P'Mint's eyes were looking at them like an angel that has saved his friend from disaster. he thanked him for their help.
"Thank you so much for your help. of you would not there I don't know what will happen to him. people generally don't mind interfere in someone else business you didn't bother to help that a great thing. thank you once again."
"Oh! no that was not much. we thought we should help so we did. no need to."
they were just saying that with a smile in there face. one thing there were some people out there who help someone stranger too. of they need one even if it's not their business, they don't border to do so. in those all conversation Eric didn't ask their names.
"P, may I ask your good name?"
"I'm...."
tringggggg.... before he can speak. the one came and they asked for their leave.
(may Eric ever know this kind men's name who gave him a back ride? I hope so. if not I will make it possible😄. so for further story stays on the track.)
