Hazel's pov:
I feel weak.
A lot weak.
I gained my conscious back few hours ago, and I still feel weak. My body hurts at every place possible.
"How're you feeling?" Ha Jun asks me after entering the ward.
"I don't feel my own body" I reply and stare at my other side. The patient next to me is the person who almost died in a truck accident. His family is with him before since I woke up. His – I assume – mother, wife and children are beside him.
I had forced them to shift me to the general ward, saying that I will recover by seeing other patients with me. And, it's obvious, they listened to me.
"The doctor said that you need to rest for few weeks" Ha Jun says interrupting my thoughts.
"Tell him I cannot wait for so long. I have a father to take down. And besides, I can never sit idle" I reply and close my eyes.
"You need to rest" I hear Sienna say.
"I can't just do it, you know" I reply and chase after my sleep. But my hunger prevents me from it.
"I'm hungry" I whisper and I feel footsteps approach me.
"I brought you fruits" I hear Prescilla say.
"I'm sorry, babe. I hid my true identity from you" I whisper after taking her in my vision.
She smiles at me and waves her hand in air.
"That's fine. Really. I know now who you are, so you need not worry about anything." She says.
"I need to make a phone call" I announce after plotting a plan in my head.
"Whom do you want to call?" Ha Jun asks me.
I look at my surroundings, and find Ha Jun, Dae hyun, Sienna, I Seul and Prescilla. And the family of the patient.
"Can you come closer, like I would whisper it in your ear" I say and try to get up, but fail. I still don't have enough energy to even sit.
"Yeah?" he asks after his ear is beside my mouth.
"The Italian king, Leonardo" I whisper and he stands, but with a questioning expression on his face.
"How do you know him?" he asks me.
"Childhood buddies" I reply and he nods.
He dials someone in his phone and places it by my ear, with high volume but not on speaker.
The intercom rings and someone picks it up.
"Hello this is Rossi industries. How can I help you?" a familiar female voice rings.
"Lily?" the name spills from my mouth. And I hear silence.
"I'm connecting the call to Mr. Rossi" she says.
"Hello" I hear my best friend say.
"Leo" I whisper.
"Hazel? Oh my God, are you okay? You sound so weak. Is everything alright?" he fires me with questions with worry in his voice.
"I'm all fine, I just need a favor" I say.
"Do I need to kill someone?" he asks me.
"No, but I need your help in that."
After explaining him my every step, he said that he'd help me in every bit of my plan. That's good; I need him too in this.
A while later, when I had some fruits to fill my stomach and sleep and wake up, I see Mk in front of me, going through her socials. Her shoulder looks swollen.
"What happened?" I ask her nodding at her shoulder.
"Oh, you're awake. And this is," she pauses and fishes something out of her pocket and shows me the device similar to the one which was in my body, "The thing our boss had given me when I didn't know of it"
I hum in response and try to sit up. My ribs hurt as hell, along with the cut I had given on my shoulder.
"Did the others remove those things too?" I ask her after resting my back against the head rest while she helps me sit but lifting up the upper part of the bed and placing a pillow behind my back.
"Yeah, they did. Pres had it on her thigh and Sien had it on her hip" she answers me after keeping her phone aside on the table beside me.
"So, do you feel any better or should I fire the doc?" she asks me and I smile at her.
"I feel better, don't worry" I reply.
A beat passes, then two and after few more seconds of dead silence, I make up the courage to ask her. I need to know if she's really okay or did she just tell me that she's okay with it because she didn't want to hurt me when I'm at bed rest, already dealing with loads of shit. "Did you talk to Pres about it?"
"About you being yourself? Yeah I did, she said everything's fine. You need not worry, girl." she says and flashes me one of her beautiful smiles.
I look at her tattoos, the ones which go straight from her fingers to her wrists, she's written some shit on her hands. Things which denotes revenge, or pain or love. And then she has a skull on the side of her arm. And on her neck, it's a wilted tree, as if those are veins of some plants, but dried, they spread from her shoulder to the other side of her neck.
"You know, I've always dreamt of getting tattoos" I say her and she grins.
"Next tattoo session I'll have, I'm gonna have it with you, none else" she replies.
"Yes bestie!" I show her thumbs up and jolt my body in enthusiasm but instantly regret. My ribs start to hurt.
"God! I hate pain" I groan and hold my hand over my torso.
"Have this" she says and pulls the drawer and hands me a big chocolate bar.
"Your dream boy left it here for you to eat it when you need" she says.
"Who?" I ask, though I know the answer would be one of the names among those two, Ha Jun and Do yun.
"The younger one" she says.
Do Yun it is.
Sienna's pov:
"You're such a pain in arse" I tell him and he just flips me the bird.
"Do I look like I care if your ass is paining or not?" he taunts me and squeezes the bottle of ketchup on top of his noodles. Hazel would literally kill him if she sees him adding ketchup to it.
I roll my eyes and make my way back to the living room with my food.
When I'm stressed, I use Netflix to soothe out the stress from me. And that's what I do now, Netflix.
I feel a presence beside me; I need not look at the person to know who it is. Just his shadow makes me know who it is.
"Why do you have to be so annoying?" I ask him without looking at him.
"Now, you're being rude, unnecessarily." He says.
"Park I Seul, your presence is annoying."
"Can you shut your mouth for a while so we can enjoy the silence?"
"I'd prefer to have a date with grim reaper knowing that I am his next target over being in the same room as you"
"Ever wondered what would look good on you?"
"No and I don't need not know" I stand up to walk to my 'supposed' room.
"A leash would look best on that neck along with restrains and a tape on your mouth." He says.
It was supposed to be a thing to annoy me off. But I would be lying if the thought of all those didn't turn me on right now.
"Whatever" I mumble and walk away.
After finishing up my food, I wash my plate and return back to the living room. Hoping that he might not be there.
When I enter in I see some movie playing and when I near it, I see him on the couch, sleeping. His body slumped on the couch, his luscious lips parted and hair strands on his eyes; he has a bowl of popcorn in his hand, which is tilted so many of the grains have already fallen on the couch and the ground.
I hadn't noticed the tattoo on his knuckle when we met at the café. Its 'PARK' written on the knuckles of his left hand, a cross on his left temple, lip piercing on his plump lower lip which is curled into a pout.
"Wake up!" I lean in his ear and shout.
"Whom do I need to kill?" he shouts back and sits straight.
"No one, dude. I woke you up because you've made a mess here" I nod at the floor and he grumbles under his breath.
"This is what happens when you annoy me. Take this as a lesson" I say and plop myself on the couch and start some show to watch.
"Where is everyone?" I hear Prescilla say.
"Who?" I ask her not removing my eyes from the television.
"Neither Mk, nor Do yun or Ha Jun or Ji Ho, the others" she says and sits beside me.
"The annoying creature is in his room, Chin hua made some food, I don't know about others" I shrug and she nods.
"I'm starving, is there something left to eat?" she asks me.
"Yeah, he made extra" I say and switch to a different movie, the present one was quite boring.
It's silly how everything happened within a few days. Hazel revealed who she was, I thought I was orphan but I actually belong to the mafias' family – which is still overwhelming, we had trackers in our bodies, our mansion was blasted in pieces, hazel is on bed rest. I need time to process it all in, but there's no enough time.
