Chapter 4 - The driver

Taecheok frowned upon hearing what she said, he wasn't believing that he was different or anything. For him being different meant softer and that would be horrible for a mafia chief.

- I'm not different, what do you mean by that?

Taecheok seemed kinda warned of that,

Chaeminsuk glanced at him kinda intrigued upon seeing how hostile he was behaving now.

Chaeminsuk thought for a while trying to tell him a consise answer, she thought for a moment while smoking and scratching her hands.

- You're treating the boy differently, you've been softer.

As Chaeminsuk said that Taecheok widened his eyes, that was the worse that a person was able to believe about him. His expression turned tense as if he was holding his anger.

- I'm not softer!

Taecheok was kinda angry now, Chaeminsuk was ecstatic.

- Then why are you now going to go in a trip along him?

Taecheok wasn't believing her, she seemed to be mocking him. As they were going on a walk.

- I... Ugh.

Taecheok walked away, he then went to Geumin room. He was radiant, and then when he noticed that Taecheok was there he smiled at him brightly.

- Taecheok, are we going now?

Taecheok was ready to say that they weren't going to have a walk anymore but when he saw how happy he was he decided to not say anything to him.

- Yeah, are you ready?

Geumin was really happy, as he took the blanket off him.

- Yes I'm ready.

Geumin tried to stand up but he falled down on the floor, his muscles weren't taking his own weight.

- Hey, take care you're not recovered.

Taecheok noticed that he wasn't able to walk properly, then he lended him a hand.

Geumin was kinda dour as he saw how weak he was actually.

- Taecheok...

Geumin was talking in a kinda slow way, Taecheok noticed how moody he was being.

- What happened, weren't you excited to go see the monuments?

Geumin glanced at him having a kinda dour expression, Taecheok was frowning not understanding why he was like that.

- I'm probably too much for you, right? I can't walk properly and you're taking me for a walk.

Taecheok widened his eyes noticing how Geumin felt when he wasn't able to walk. Taecheok left a small laugh, and helped him standing up.

- Don't worry, I'm the person who lended you help. Then you don't need to worry about how much I need to take care of you.

Taecheok was talking in a soft tone, Geumin nodded at him kinda glad that he wasn't a problem to him. They walked up to the door, a subordinate was waiting for them.

- Taecheok! Your car's ready!

The subordinate was shouting having a great posture and tensed.

Taecheok nodded at the subordinate that also nodded at him, then he leaded them both to the car where there was a driver.

- Hello, fasten your belts and have a great trip.

The driver of the car said that while they were entering the car. Taecheok and Geumin sat at the benches together.

- Where are we going now?

Taecheok glanced at the driver as he was still holding Geumin hand, not noticing that.

- Were going to a monument that's three hours far. The monuments close to here are all closed to be seen, since they've been doing some construction there.

Taecheok nodded at him then he glanced at Geumin who was radiant.

- Then three hours? Geumin, do you want to sleep while we wait?

Taecheok looked up to him waiting for his response.

- I... I don't know...

Taecheok chuckled, then he rested on the car door and closed his eyes smirking at him.

- Then I'm going to sleep, you can keep talking to Choi.

The driver flinched, a tear went off his eyes when he noticed that Taecheok reminded of him and told him to talk.

- Sure, Taecheok...

The driver was driver while waiting for him to ask questions about how driving was.

- Then, do you have any doubts?

Geumin widened his eyes and then he approached the driver and whispered to him.

- Why do you work to Taecheok?

The driver cried as Geumin actually asked him about his work life. Then he took a deep breath and talked.

- I was in the edge of my life, my spouse had left me and I didn't have any money. That was when that lady Chaeminsuk came to me and said they needed a driver, anybody can drive but the way she said to me felt as if I was the only, I quickly accepted.

When I went to the mansion, I saw how clean and organized it was. She said all the mansion was taken care from the subordinates that were paid from a single person and that was Taecheok...

The man seemed to end his life story but when Geumin would say something he kept talking.

- When I walked and saw how nice they are in that mansion as I actually asked about that to them. They all said that they would help Taecheok and I decided to do that.

The driver smiled really cherished while the boy was glancing at him having a warm smile, Taecheok was a really nice person that was what he was thinking but he didn't know anything about him actually...

Taecheok was still sleeping, although he wasn't really off as he was still hearing them talking.

- What about you Geumin boy? Why do you work for Taecheok?

That question was... Geumin frowned at him as he didn't work for Taecheok.

- I don't... Oh, do you mean when I recover from my injuries? Well, maybe I should cook for him? Or tidy up the bed I don't know...

The driver frowned but then grinned along him, Taecheok woke up and told the driver that the car should be stopped on a spot there.

- Taecheok, do you need to talk to me? Did I say something wrong?

The driver asked kinda nervous as he didn't know why Taecheok told him to place the car there.

- Choi... Do you know how I know that?

Taecheok glared at him his eyes piercing through him.

- I'm a person important to you, Taecheok?

The driver was smiling but also sweating like crazy.

- Exactly. But you know what I expect from important persons?

Taecheok put his hand on his shoulder and started to press it tightly.

- I don't know.... Taecheok that's hurting.

The driver was wincing in pain, Geumin noticed them there and glanced upon trying to see what they were doing there.

- I want them to follow the plans, do you understand?

Taecheok took off his hand from him when he noticed that Geumin was walking there.

- That boy knows nothing don't try asking him questions do you understand?

Taecheok said walking towards the car there.
