“Why didn’t you tell me?” You asked Taemin as you both sat there on a bench at the park. You was bandaging him up, he immediately whined as the cleaning alcohol reach his skin. The idiot deserve it.

“I-I didn’t have the chance. You was too depress at the time, and I just got drafted” He said.

“And now?”

“I-I don’t know,” Taemin keep down his gaze. “I d-didn’t want to bring you into it as well.”

“Then you should have never come here then” You stated coldly. Knowing full well that he have nowhere else to go. Just how the heck did it get to this anyway?

Right, unlike you Taemin grew up into a dysfunctional household. As much as you hated him, he still had it worse than you.

“Twenty-eight thousand,” Taemin said. “I’m still working on the rest and they just took my pay check.”

“Okay that mean we have at least thirty-six thousand dollar at hands then.” You concluded. After two year of part time jobs, guess all your money going to go into Taemin family debt then.

“Minjee you don’t have to-“

“Shut up, I want to. Now let me think of how we can handle the rest” You ordered. Just how in the hell can you come up with the fourteen thousand dollar left? How on earth can you freaking get fourteen million won?
