Life has its way of throwing you curveballs, you never know what's going to happen or who you're going to meet. 

In life you meet people who act as a bridge or doorway to meeting other people, or that one special person.

At the time, I had no idea that this man would be that bridge for me. 

"What are you?"

He looks taken aback at my tone, "I'll forgive you for using informal language as you may be surprised right now. Why don't you take a seat Choi Mi Na?" 

Without taking my eyes off him, I sit infront of him and begin to stare him down mercilessly. However, his demeanor didn't change one bit. 

"Forgive me, I don't like surprises," he nods his head. 

I study his features once more, then turn my head to the side as I look him up and down. "You have a peculiar shaped nose," he laughs loudly at my observation. 

"You also have her sense of humor too," I reach for the glass of beer I had placed infront of him and finish it in one gulp. 

"Who are you?" this time I ask a bit more politely. 

I watch closely as he reaches into his jacket pocket and take out a card, he places it on the table. Using his eyes, he makes a gesture towards the piece of paper, I give him a small scowl then reach for it. 

What started as a scoff turned into a full out round of laughter as I read what's written on the card. He shakes his head at me and with his arms still crossed against his chest, he gives a small smile at my reaction. 

"Ahjussi, do you think I would believe that you're a CEO?" he shrugs at my question, "what kind of name is Bang Si Hyuk anyway?" he flashes me a funny look. 

Keep it up Mi Na, he might believe you're actually bluffing and leave you alone. 

"Why are you pretending not to know who I am?" 

Busted. 

"Who says I'm pretending?" he remains silent then blinks at me a few times, sighing in defeat I slump in my chair, "how did you find me?"

I don't give him a chance to answer as I lean over the table so I could get a closer look at his face. "Are you sure you're the Hitman Bang?"

He chuckles softly, "why do you ask?"

I could only shrug in return, "I just thought you would be a bit taller," I catch the eyes of Joon and give him a signal. 

Whatever it is he came here to talk about, I'm sure I'll need more alcohol to get through the conversation. "I heard you're no longer with YG Entertainment."

I make a face, "I swear nothing remains a secret in this industry, how did you know about me? My identity is a secret for a reason, and what you're attempting to do right now is one of those reasons." 

He refrains from saying anything as Joon brought over two glasses of beer, I nod my head at him reassuringly and he walks away
