Mr. Lee Kwang Soo was laying weakly on the large and luxurious king size bed. Doojoon, as his personal assistant was standing beside him. Hyunseung was guarding at the dark wooden door. There was no one else in the room except them.

“Doo...joon,” Mr. Lee whispered weakly as he tried to speak with his frail voice.

“Yes, Mr. Lee,” Doojoon heard the call and replied softly. He kneed and leaned his ear near to Mr. Lee as he knew Mr. Lee wanted to tell him something.

“He... w...will.... come,” Mr. Lee paused as he took a very hard and deep breath. His chest rose slowly following the tempo of the difficult breath. Then he tried to speak again. “To...mor...row,”

Doojoon turned his eyes to the Mr.Lee. He looked so pale, dull and sick. He barely opened his eyes. There were hollows at his both cheeks. However, he tried to open his mouth again. It was pathetic and sad scenery for Doojoon. Doojoon prepared his ear again to listen to Mr. Lee words.

“Yang... Yo...seob,” Mr. Lee spoke in his low voice.

Doojoon knew tomorrow was the date. It seemed like Mr. Lee wanted to remind him about it. He smiled as he looked to the old sick man sadly.

“I’ve made the preparation. Don’t worry,” Doojoon said kindly to assure Mr. Lee. He didn’t want Mr. Lee to worry about anything anymore. He didn’t know why but parts of his heart think of this old man as his father. Doojoon was born as a slave. He never knew his parents. A slave that was born as a slave would never know their parents. At first, Doojoon dislike Mr. Lee Kwang Soo, the owner of the slave factory but soon, as he continued working for him, he could see how he actually care for those who were closed to him.

Mr. Lee mouth was moving again. “You...take...care,”

Doojoon was surprised with the words. He quickly turned his sight to Mr. Lee, his superior. Doojoon could see Mr. Lee took his very last breath very hardly as his mouth opened. Mr. Lee eyes were widely opened, looking upward. Then, he released his breath slowly following the pace of the tears that fell to his pillow. 

Doojoon was shocked but he was not panicked. He was trained not to panic. He placed his fingers on Mr. Lee left wrist to feel the beat but there was none. He moved his fingers to upper neck of Mr. Lee. Pulses at the upper neck were usually harder and easier to be detected. However, there was none. Doojoon was sad and he knew it. However, there were no tears. Not because he held it back. He just, never knew how to cry. He never cried as long as he remembered.

Doojoon closed Mr. Lee eyes gently and stood up. He walked towards the door and stopped when he arrived beside Hyunseung.

“Prepare for a funeral event,” Doojoon instructed, not looking at Hyunseung.

Hyunseung nodded his head and quickly walked out of the room. He could see clearly what happen between Doojoon and Mr. Lee although he couldn’t hear what they were talking about. It was not that he was sad with the death. However, he was sad knowing that Doojoon was sad with the lost. He just hoped that the new owner would be better than Mr. Lee Kwang Soo although he knew the next owner was a dangerous and cruel legendary assassin. It was not wrong to hope, right?

*********

It was a very large white room with a hard wooden king size bed. The bed was cream in colour, the pillows, bed sheet and comforter. Although the room looked grand, it was unhappy.  At another corner  of the room, there was a girl with white dress, long dark brown hair, standing in front of a large window as she gazed outside, looking at the outside world that she never been before. Not far from her, a man with a dark suit was standing as he kept his eyes on her.

Lee Gikwang looked at the princess that he was guarding with worried. Her only family just died yesterday and she was still sad. She didn’t cry at the funeral but that was not surprising. She rarely showed her emotion to strangers. Everyone was strangers to her except for her grandfather. However, sometimes she would smile to him, sometimes even spoke to him. It made him felt he was a special person to her. Gikwang didn’t care if he was not special to her. For him, she was a special girl.

She might not show her feeling much but she was very sensitive and gentle inside. That what he saw every time she smiled at him. She was physically pretty but there were more to her that made her beautiful. She has a very beautiful smile that any other girls couldn’t compare to her. That was because she smiled sincerely, directly from her heart. Sadly, she rarely smiled.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

The door instantly opened after the sound. Gikwang turned to the door, ready to signal the knocker that the princess didn’t want to be disturbed.

Doojoon walked in and saw Gikwang was shooking his head, telling him that it was not the right time. Doojoon sighed. He knew it. He signalled Gikwang to come out of the room. He could see Gikwang surprised and puzzled expression. Gikwang took a glance to Miss Lee and walked towards Doojoon.

Doojoon closed the door as Gikwang was out of the room.

“What is it about?” Gikwang immediately asked Doojoon, sounded unsatisfied.

“The new owner of Lee Sung Group wants to meet Miss Lee Jieun,” Doojoon replied calmly as he pointed to Yoseob.

Gikwang turned his sight to the person that Doojoon pointed, lifted his eyebrow. He didn’t look like a nasty and terrifying murderer at all. He looked like a grow-up man but with baby-like face. Gikwang hated to admit it but this guy looked adorable.

Yoseob quickly smiled brightly as Doojoon introduced him. He waved his hand excitedly towards Gikwang.

“Anyeong, I’m Yang Yoseob,” he said joyfully, showing his white teeth.

Gikwang was annoyed with the bright kid-like smile. Someone just lost a family member and he still could smile like that. He looked sharply to Yoseob as a warning.

“She didn’t want to be disturbed. Why don’t you count all the money that you own first? I’m sure she would be okay by then,” Gikwang said harshly, smirking afterward. He didn’t care if the guy in front him was the owner of Lee Sung Group now. What more important to him was the girl in the room. He didn’t want anyone hurt her either physically or emotionally.

Doojoon and Hyunseung were shocked with Gikwang rude act. He was usually kind and gentle. He also usually used polite words and spoke formally. Most probably, he was also was influenced by the depression of the princess or he was just too protective of the princess.

Yoseob bright expression changed instantly as he heard the words out from Gikwang. He bit his inner cheek and looked at Gikwang sharply. He half smirked.

Gikwang was a bit surprised with the dark expression on the adorable baby face. It was because he didn’t expect that a cute and adorable face had the ability to show a scary, creepy and dangerous look. However, he was not scared of him, not at all.

Yoseob was thinking to punch this guy, kicked his tummy hardly, broke his ribs until it penetrated his lungs and blew him a shot at the heart. However, this guy was just trying to protect a girl that he also had to protect. He took a deep breath and released it with his anger. He looked at Gikwang with puppy eyes and pouted.

“But, I just want to know what she looks like,” Yoseob tried to make it sounded as cute as possible.

Gikwang was shocked again. In a blink of eyes, this guy became harmless, adorable and cute. No one ever looked at him like that. He sighed. He did look innocent and sincere. He admitted that he lost to the aegyo.

“Okay then, just a peek,” Gikwang muttered lowly but could be heard by Yoseob and others.

Yoseob grabbed Gikwang hand and smiled. “Let’s go in together,” Yoseob said as he pulled Gikwang into the room.

Doojoon and Hyunseung smiled. They were a bit worried that Yoseob would do something bad to Gikwang but it turned out that he was just using his aegyo. They decided to wait outside of the room, guarding it from outside.

Gikwang was puzzled with Yoseob friendly act. No one ever act friendly to him except for Jieun who sometimes smiled at him. Maybe not just Jieun, sometimes, Doojoon and Hyunseung would also smile to him. However, it was just a smile, simple smile. This Yoseob guy just grabbed him into the room, not in a hard way but gentle and kind. Gikwang was surprised with the words that he chose to describe Yoseob act but he admitted those words were the most accurate words to describe the action of Yoseob.

“Anyeong, Miss Lee Jieun,” Yoseob greeted with a very happy voice right after he released Gikwang hand. He intentionally forced Gikwang to enter the room with him. He knew this guy didn’t believe in his sincerity of doing his task. So, he pulled him in so he could see what he actually wanted to do.

Jieun was surprised to hear a stranger voice called her name. She looked down to the floor. Slowly, she turned towards the owner of the voice. She started from his feet which he was wearing a pair of worn-out brown leathered shoes, dark black pants, and black jacket. Jieun took a deep breath before she turned her sight to his face.

Yoseob was surprised with Jieun appearance. She was not fat at all, she was very slim and thin instead. She had a long dark brown hair, curly eyelashes which made her eyes looked round, her dark brown eyes were twinkling, and she had a fair and pale but glowing skin. Yoseob never met a girl as pretty as her. Even he did meet one before, he didn’t have much time to scan her like he scanned Jieun. She was pretty but she was too skinny. What made her look like this? Was the food here not tasty enough?
