In the morning
Bzz*Sungjin's cell phone rings*
-
Sungjin: Who could be calling me at this time of the morning?
*An unknown number was calling*
Sungjin: Hello?
?: Hello Mr. Shin, I'm a nurse at the hospital and unfortunately I bring bad news, your grandfather...
*Sungjin doesn't even finish listening and runs out of the house to the hospital wearing only a shirt and shorts*
Sungjin: This can only be a prank.
*Sungjin runs as fast as he can to get to the hospital, when he arrives at the hospital exhausted he goes to his grandfather's room afraid it might not be a prank*
Sungjin: Grandpa? *He says opening the door, but his grandfather was not in his room*
Nurse: Are you the grandson?
Sungjin: It's me, where is my grandfather
Nurse: Wait there, I'll call the doctor in charge. *The nurse runs to the doctor, who comes towards Sungjin with a sad expression*
Doctor: Let's sit here. *The doctor guides Sungjin to a bench*
Sungjin: What's going on? Why isn't my grandfather in the room?
Doctor: During the night, your grandfather had a cardiac arrest... and unfortunately he couldn't take it anymore, and he passed away...
*Sungjin loses his strength, he becomes pale and in shock, everything disappears and the only things that go through his head are some memories of his grandfather and his father*
Sungjin: What?! *Sungjin tries to express himself but the pain is so great that he loses his voice*
*The day passes without Sungjin noticing, he remained in the same position, crying on that bench, when the young man regains his consciousness he realizes that it is already getting dark*
"Why is it that the only person who cared about me is gone now? Could it be that in a past life I was a criminal? So many bad things happening at once"
*The countless bad thoughts guided Sungjin to a bridge*
Sungjin: I'm only 18 years old and my life is already over. *Sungjin begins to climb the bridge's guardrails*
"Nice to meet you young master, you can call me 'Carnation'."
Sungjin: What did that guy want with my grandfather? *Sungjin reflects on now sitting on top of the fence*
Sungjin: He called me Young Master, when my father was still alive I remember being called that by some of his friends, but he always scolded me and acted like it was a joke. *Sungjin looks at the sunset and starts crying again* Why did you go and leave so many unanswered questions? *He says between tears*
?: What are you doing there, young man? *A man appears sitting next to him and asks*
*Sungjin is startled by the sudden arrival of the man next to him and loses his balance, falling forward. As soon as he starts to fall, he closes his eyes*
"A boring end to life, just like my life"
*Sungjin opens his eyes and sees the water in front of him but he was still high, he turns his head and realizes that he didn't fall off the bridge because the man had held him, he starts crying again*
Sungjin: I'm so useless that I can't even die. *Sungjin is in tears as he is being held by the man*
?: What do you mean Young Master? *The man puts Sungjin back next to him on the fence*
Sungjin: You?! What are you doing here? *Sungjin wipes his face as he realizes that the man who saved him was Cravo*
Cravo: I received the news about your grandfather and went to the hospital, when I got there I saw you coming out of there, so I followed you. *Cravo says with a sincere expression as he crosses his legs*
Sungjin: What did you want with my grandfather? And why are you following me? If he had any debt to pay I'll tell you right away that it would have been better to have let me fall! *Sungjin questions Cravo's actions*
Cravo: There's no need to be afraid Young Master, your grandfather was a great leader and I'm the one who owes him a lot, now in this case you will inherit my debt, so I thank you for everything your grandfather has done for me. *Cravo says smiling as he gets off the fence*
Sungjin: What do you mean leader, my grandfather had a restaurant, did you work there? *Sungjin asks the man, as he also gets off the fence*
Cravo: No young man, not that kind of leader. *Cravo laughs as he answers the young man*
Sungjin: I don't understand anything, why do they call me Young Master? *Sungjin asks as he accompanies Cravo to the door of his car*
Cravo: This is not the place and it is not yet time to answer these questions, but rest assured, after your grandfather's funeral I will tell you about the past. *Cravo says as he gets into the car and closes the door*
Cravo: See you later Young Master! *Cravo lowers the window and says goodbye, before Sungjin can say anything the car is already far away*
"What do you mean he's going to tell me about the past, and why wait until my grandfather's funeral, even if it's tomorrow, he could tell me everything now"
*Sungjin walks thoughtfully to his house, on the way he notices some men in suits in some places nearby but they didn't do anything to him, so he simply ignored them and continued to his house*
The next day
"The day has already dawned and just like the day my father died, it's raining."
Sungjin: Go ahead! *Sungjin says looking at himself in the mirror*
*Sungjin heads to the place of his grandfather's funeral and It was all incredibly empty and silent, just a few ordinary cars in the parking lot, nothing to draw attention to.*
*Sungjin gathered his strength and went to the room where he would stay and receive anyone who came to pay his respects. *
Almost 3 hours later
"It's been a long time but no one has come to see you yet. I think you were a very lonely guy, Grandpa."
*A short time later, the door opened and Cravo was the first person who could be seen. *
Cravo: Sorry for the delay, Young Master. *Cravo, who always had a happy and smiling expression, was now sad and seemed to have cried a little.
*Cravo enters the room, kneels and pays his respects, after Cravo leave the room*
