Today was a Friday, the start of the weekend. Seungri loved Friday, it was his favourite day of the week. Friday meant dinner time with the family, hiring a baby-sitter to look after the kids, dating with the significant other and coming home (hopefully sober) late. It was a day to unwind after working so hard throughout the week, without the need to wake up so early on Saturday morning.   

He was definitely looking forward to this particular Friday. It was their 5^th anniversary after all and he took great pains to plan for the celebration. A dinner by the beach and then a late night movie before presenting Jiyong with the most expensive watch that Seungri had ever laid his hands on.

He wondered what Jiyong had in store for him for their 5^th year together as a married couple. Jiyong was his romantic husband, one who would compose songs, write poems and surprise Seungri with unexpected gifts just to keep the romance alive.  Lately though, Jiyong had been paying less attention to him, coming home less too since he was too caught up with his work. Jiyong was an aspiring artist and he spent most of his day in the studio, working his magic hands to create art pieces that he hoped to sell.

Jiyong’s ‘job’ did not bring in the stable income that the household of four needed. It was Seungri’s responsibility as a sole breadwinner to make ends meet so that there was warm food on the dinner table everyday and the children could receive proper education.

Seungri was passionate about kids. He had a soft spot for them which was why he decided to work for a childcare in town so that busy working parents would leave their adorable kids in his care. The pay was enough to pay for the bills, food, rent and school fees. Seungri was very prudent with his salary and his thriftiness paid off as he always had spare to save for rainy days and of course, for their weekly outings.

To Seungri, that Friday was probably like any normal anniversary where he and Jiyong would bask in their love and fondness towards each other. Little did he knew, that Friday evening was not a typical one. In fact, it would be a life-changing Friday that he would never forget.
