"How long do you want me to wait, dude? I have two jobs to attend, you know."
She was annoyed. She was really-really annoyed. The weather was freezing cold, she was late from a meeting and on top of that she was afraid they might get into trouble. He brought her to some of the worst neighbourhoods of Seoul with quite a big crime rate.
"He will be here in a few minutes, I promise" - he replied.
"He better be..."
While waiting for their friend, she kept herself busy with looking around the streets. There weren't too much people out there, but considering the late hour, it was understandable. It was almost completely quiet and dark. Not a single beam of light came trough the windows of the run-down buildings. Not a single car could be seen moving. Not a single cat called their lovers.
It was peaceful. Like the calm before the storm.
The only place that held some life was a club two houses away from them. The bright neon board advertised the place's name well, and the pair could even hear the music throbbing in there if it was loud enough. On the two sides of the doors stood two men being in charge of the safety that night, though nobody entered the club during the time CL spent standing there. The only time those heavy doors actually opened, when people left the place. It was always well-dressed men with beautiful women on their sides.
That was the case again when a pair left the club giggling. They just stood there in front of the building, and a few minutes later a car arrived. They climbed into the back seat, and the black Kia got going immediately.
After one more couple left the same way, CL got suspicious. The place seemed a bit off to her. These men looked rich, so why on earth did they choose a place in a poor neighbourhood like that?
She turned her head towards her friend and asked "Do you know this place?"
The guy didn't answer right away taking his time to think about a bit, then shook his head.
"I'm not sure. I heard a lot of different stories. Some says it's just a club, according to others it's a brothel. Maybe it's a striptease bar since the visitors are usually men."
But you can't take the girls home from striptease bars - thought the blonde.
It was just weird, but she didn't really care about it. She just wanted the clothes she came for and leave this damned place already.
While having sweet thoughts about the embrace of her big, warm blanket, she heard a shout.
She turned her head and saw a drunk mand walking out of the club with unsure steps holding a girl by her left lower arm.
"Please! Please, I... I don't..." - The girl was so quiet Chaerin almost couldn't hear her voice. She tried to pull her arm back, but the man held her steadily. He giggled like crazy probably due to the big amount of alcohol he had. The girl pushed at him with her free hand, but the drunk man didn't even noticed it since the move was weak.
The two bodyguards shared a grumpy glace, then the left one went into the building, while the other stayed unmoving.
"Calm down, hun'. We will have a lot of fun!" - said the man, but his words wasn't completely understandable because of his drunken state.
"Please, let me go, sir!" pleaded the girl with a weak voice. 
"What the hell's this?" asked the blonde herself. She felt beyond angry. This didn't seem right. 
"Don't worry about it" said Dongil. Maybe he just wanted to ease Chaerin's nervousness, but he made it worse.
"What?" she exclaimed loudly while turning towards him. "Do you think it's normal?"
"Here?" he asked with outstretched arms. "Maybe yeah. Either way it's none of our business."
"Are you ing mental?!" She wanted to throw more insults at the boy, but a car just sped past them and stopped in front of the club. She her heels and saw as the man opened one of the back doors with the intention of getting in there with the young female against her will.
"Please... Please!" The girl pleaded louder and louder, but her voice choked as tears run down on her face.
Chaerin couldn't just stand there and watch it happen. Someone was just freakin' kidnap a girl and it seemed like nobody cared at all!
She headed towards the scene with quick steps, but was stopped by Dongil immediately.
"CL, don't!"
The brunette looked at her with puffy, teary eyes. They held each other's gaze for moments like they were alone on that street. It looked like she was asking for help without uttering a word.
She was beautiful. Even with the smudged makeup and and terror in her eyes, she looked stunning. Her thin frame was visible in that sort dress. Chaerin didn't even want to imagine how cold the girl could be.
She just stared at the girl with slightly parting lips and couldn't think about anything. She didn't even understand fully what was this situation about. She only know that someone was forcing a girl to do something she didn't want to.
Though she didn't have time to jump at the man, because moments later three men left the building. One of them pulled back the girl's arm and closed the door of the car. Another one started scolding the girl loudly while the brunette just looked down at her toes. The man grabbed her arm violently and started to pull her back to the club. Before they entered the building, the girl glanced at Chaerin again with absolute sadness and sorrow in her eyes. The two other followed them disappearing behind the heavy doors.
Only the two of them was left on the sidewalk and suddenly everything became dead quiet again. For a while Chaerin just tried to pull herself together after what she witnessed, then turned back to Dongil.
"What's this?" she asked quietly again. "What's this place?" 
"I told you that I don't know."
She looked back behind her shoulder but nothing changed. The girl wasn't there anymore. 
Some says it's just a club, according to others it's a brothel. Maybe it's a striptease bar - she remembered the words. Be it any of them, it didn't seemed right. Someone wanted to take a girl and they shouted at her for it. It was abnormal. Just wrong.
She thought about the girl. She thought about the dread she must've felt. The pain she endured as everybody grabbed her on the arm as if she was a dog. She thought about the outcome that would happen if nobody would have been there to help her.
Based on the scolding she received she was a worker there. Maybe a waitress? Waitresses usually don't wear fancy dresses like her, though.
Chaerin heard Dongil's voice. He said something about Jungwoo's arrival, so they can finally go up to his apartment and get her clothes, but she didn't move an inch. She just stood there staring towards the club.
This was just wrong. This whole situation was just utterly wrong. She maybe shouldn't be, but she felt awful. She felt sorry for that girl...

Hello Everyone! 
I'm HyoLyn, a new author here. :) 
First time writing a kpop fanfic in English. Since my first language is Hungarian probably there will be mistakes and typos, but please don't mind them. 
This fanfiction is precious to me, and I hope you will enjoy reading it as much as I enjoy writing it. 
I warn you this won't be light and fluffy. The first half of the story contains more happy moments though, but don't let yourself fooled.

Hope you'll enjoy! Bye-bye~

And here's a video I've made for the story. It's not really a trailer, just a short something. Hope you like it though, even if it's not the best.
But I warn you it could contain SPOILER for you, because it's about the later chapters.

(There was another shorter video on here before, but I made this one to replace it. You can still watch it ony my YouTube channel.)
