"We need some firewood, though," Mimi said as Jisung and Casper arrived with a large pot. "I'll get them," June said, standing from his seat.
Haruki looked around before standing quickly, almost as if someone electrocuted his butt. "I'll come with you," he said.
June nodded. "We'll be back soon."
The others nodded in acceptance, despite some of them wanting to join June.
"Can I come?" Jisung asked, trying out his luck, but June shook his head.
"We won't be long," June responded.
"Take this camera with you," Pablo said, placing one of the small cameras around June's neck. "The staff would want most of this to be documented."
June merely nodded.
With that, Haruki and June made their way down the hill. Fortunately, they didn't have to walk long. They saw a forest-like area a few meters away, and it seemed like some of its
branches were dry and perfect for starting a fire.
"Let's go there," June said, pointing to the area.
Haruki nodded and followed after him. With that, they silently gathered the firewood.
-The two rivals are together again.
- No one really established if they're close now.
- I don't think so. Haruki is still quite aloof with others.
-But weren't they spotted together before?
- No one's sure of that.
Haruki glanced at June from time to time, appearing as if he wanted to say something.
June sighed and stopped picking the firewood. "Just say what you want to say."
Haruki clicked his tongue and looked away from June. "How'd you know?"
June shook his head. "It's obvious."
Haruki pursed his lips as he also stopped picking up the firewood.
"I just wanted to apologize, I guess," he said.
June's eyebrows raised in surprise.
"For what?" he asked.
The workers diligently nodded.
"Yes, ma'am," their chef said. "I can tell that he's a good kid from the show. I guess the
dangers in his career just can't be escaped."
"See!" Minjun exclaimed. "Even they agree."
"They don't know what June is capable of," Lena said. "You, too, do not know him. Don't get too attached to him. Otherwise, I'd really push for your homeschooling."
Minjun was about to argue but quickly pursed his lips when he realized he would never win against his mother. With that, he just settled for glaring at her.
Lena sighed and went over to where he was, placing a hand over his shoulder.
"Like I said, I'm doing this for your own good. I don't want you to get hurt. After mom died, you're the only one I have left," she softly said before kissing him on the temple.
Minjun's expression softened for a moment, but he still didn't budge.
"I'm going back to my room," she said. "I had a long day."
Then, she went to her room, gently closing the door.
Meanwhile, Minjun let out a breath he didn't even know he was holding.
"You always have a long day. You say you only have me, but what about me?"
"Who do I have now when you're not even here?" he muttered.
The workers turned to each other, pity seen in their eyes. However, they also knew they
couldn't do anything about it.
"June is the person who cares the most," he whispered, only being able to hear himself.
On the other hand, after Lena changed into her pajamas, she slumped in her bed and turned on
the television.
She would usually watch a true crime show to put her to sleep, one that had gruesome
murders. The more graphic, the better.
However, for some reason, she itched to watch something else that night.
Before she even knew it, she had clicked a particular channel where a familiar handsome boy
was shown.
"Gosh," she muttered.
"Why am I doing this?"
