"All immortals... gods and goddesses... they cannot die. But they can disappear anytime... "

"C'mon, Park! Run! Run!" I said as my feet run faster, looking back to check on my friend. He was not too far behind. My feet hurts already, where can we even hide? I found a dark alley and grab my friend to hide. We crouched behind the huge boxes so no one can see us. It was quiet. Then we heard the group of older kids trying to bully us. 

 

"Where are those kids?! You idiots! How could you let them go away?!" One of them said. It was just followed by murmurs of apologies. 

 

"Yah ahjussi! Did you see two kids running around here?!!" Ahjussi? Someone's here? 

 

"Ahjussi?" A guy suddenly chuckled. "I'm not old, young man." This just pissed off the guy more. "Just tell me if you saw them!" 

 

"How disrespectful." The guy grunted. "No. I didn't see anyone. I was just passing by here." That's a lie. No one walks alone in this street at night. That's like having a death wish. This place is dangerous. 

 

"You should've told us earlier! You keep talking about nonsense! Let's go. The two bastards shouldn't be too far." Then they went away. It's quiet again. 

 

"Is it safe to come out now, Min?" my friend whispered. Like he's scared someone will hear us. I was about to answer when someone beat me to it. 

 

"You two, you can go out now." We were both shock when we heard the guy from earlier speak. We slowly walked outside the alley and saw the ahjussi.  

 

He's tall. Really tall. He looks weird though. Although not noticeable, his clothes looked like they were... glowing. 

 

I looked at ahjussi and asked, "Who are you Mister? How did you know we were there?" 

 

He sighed. "Another disrespectful kid." 

 

I frowned, "I'm not disrespectful."

 

He raised am eyebrow, "Oh really? You should be thankful that I saved you from those bast- I mean, kids." 

 

"Thank you, Mister." Park said and he nudged me to do the same. So I did. 

 

"The other one is polite enough." Then he looked at me. "Unlike this ungrateful brat." 

 

Why does this ahjussi keep calling me brat? Disrespectful? I'm not! 

 

"Anyway, go home kids. It's late and you shouldn't be outside." He turned and started walking away when I called him again. "Ahjussi!" 

 

He looked at me curiously. So I tried again. "What's your name, Mister?" 

 

He smirked, "I'm Kim Namjoon." 

 

"But you can call me... The Thinker."
