"Shownu ?" Shownu heard. He looked up and saw Taewoon, a nurse of the hospital and a close hyung to the Clan members. In this small town, everyone knows everyone. Shownu smiled.   "Hyung !" He said and shot up from his chair to hug him. Taewoon hugged him back and sat besides him. He always gave good advice to them and he was one of the people The Clan members always go to when they need advice or help... And actually one of the rare people to like them as a whole. That was another thing about The Clan. Everyone liked them individually but people always glared and swore when they saw them walking together.   "Don't worry too much, your father will be all right... He's a strong man." Taewoon said. Shownu smiled. He was right... a true warrior.   "I know. Besides, it isn't time for him to leave me yet." He replied.    "Of course. By the way, how are things with Hyunjoo ?" Taewoon asked. Shownu's smile faded away.   "Good... They're good..." Shownu replied, looking away. Lying while looking at someone in their eyes ? Never ever.   "Then why do I feel like you're lying to me ?"

For a strange reason, he made me promise to take care of Hyunjoo if something ever happened, telling me that she's always been in love with me. How would he feel now if I broke his sister's heart by breaking up with her ? I'm a man hyung, a promise is a promise." Shownu said. Yes, Shownu was the definition of a grown, responsible man. That's why he was made leader after Kwangji's death.   "I know but don't you think that situation is hurting her more than everything ? She more than any one else can see you don't love her, you just feel like you HAVE to protect her. You're a way too sincere person to pretend to be liking some
