Dan-Han's Mansion

Private Study

Dan-Han was restless when he thought about how close Eun-Sun was with In-Ha. He still hasn't forgotten about it their close interaction during lunch yesterday. He didn't like at all. He knew he was strongly attracted to her and he wanted her for himself he also didn't like the strange feeling he was having at the moment.

He was supposed to be focused on work at the moment but the thought of Eun-Sun had covered his thought. He couldn't take her out of her mind. She was all he thought about these days.

Dan-Han was still in his thoughts when In-Ha came strolling in. Dan-Han snapped his head towards him.

"Learn to knock" Dan-Han said in a cold and warning tone.

"You didn't exactly lock the door" In-Ha retorted, making Dan-Han glare at him. He knew there was no need arguing with In-Ha, the guy could be very irritating and annoying.

Dan-Han picked up his pen and returned his attention on the file in front of him.

"You're ready to go?" Dan-Han asked.

"Yeah" In-Ha nodded.

"She'll be happy" Dan-Han said, glancing back at In-Ha who looked not like his usual self.

"Maybe a bit naggy, I haven't visited her in a long time" He chuckled, but the sadness in his eyes was evident.

"Not true. She'll be happy to see you" Dan-Han assured him.

"I hope she is" In-Ha sighed deeply.

He wasn't really sure his mother would be happy that this was the first he would be visiting her grave since he left the country. It was supposed to be her tenth year remembrance and he hasn't seen her in five years. But home had to go. This was one of the reasons why he had returned back for the first time in six years.

"I don't think he'll show up today either" Dan-Han told him when he noticed the pensive look appearing on In-Ha's face. He could tell what he was thinking about.

"Are you sure?" In-Ha asked doubtfully.

"I did as you asked. I have people watching her grave side and he hasn't shown up there since you left" Dan-Han informed him.

"But don't be so sure, because I think they must have heard that you're back. They might want to approach you there. So you should still prepare yourself just incase" Dan-Han added.

In-Ha sighed. "I'm not ready to face them now"

Dan-Han looked at In-Ha intently. He knew he was having a hard time since his return. "I get some men ready. They'll keep them off till you're done" Dan-Han told him.

"Thanks alot"

"So what do you want to do next?" Dan-Han curiously asked. He knew In-Ha had not returned for no good reason. He was sure he had some plans in his heart.

"Next?" He scoffed, looking at Dan-Han, his eyes looking intense and red.

"Get my mother's company from that murderer and his mistress. Then I'll send them to jail" In-Ha said coldly. His tone was hard and dangerous.

"He's still your father" Dan-Han reminded him.

"He stopped being that when he killed mother" In-Ha declared. Dan-Han nodded his head in understanding.

"Tell me when you're ready. I'll help you" Dan-Han offered. He knew things were not going to be easy for his friend, and helping him was going to go a long way in helping In-Ha have his revenge.

Don't blame him for supporting such a wicked thing. Dan-Han was supposed to talk him out of punishing his own father, and probably tell him the importance of forgiveness right? News flash, Dan-Han was not like that. He was cruel and ruthless. His training and business dealing over the years had turned him into devil. He would never go easy on people who did him or his loved ones, wrong.

"Thanks man" In-Ha appreciated him.

"I have to work" Dan-Han said dismissively. And that was In-Ha's cue to leave.

"Okay, ill be going now, but let's call Jae-Hyun and hangout later in the day. I'll need some drinks after now" In-Ha told him as he stood up to his feet.

"Hmm" Dan-Han mumbled out.

Cemetery

Eun-Sun stood on the road which demarcated the cemetery. She could very much remember the spot where her grandmother had been buried but she couldn't move. She just stood there staring into space.

Memories of the day Grandma Mae died, came flashing through her mind.

It was a raining day, and she was still tutoring her last student for the day when she got the call that her grandma was asking for her to come to the hospital.

She had the urge to end the class and hurry off to the hospital but she remembered the doctor had long adviced them to go for surgery but Eun-Sun was yet to raise the money. As a matter of fact she had promised to bring the money that day.

Eun-Sun decided to finish tutoring her last student and receive her pay, then hurry up the restaurant where she waited on tables to also receive her pay check, before heading to the hospital.

Eun-Sun almost died on the spot when she arrived the hospital and she found her grandmother struggling for life. Doctors and nurses were surrounding her, trying to resuscitate her. She tried to go into the room but she was helps back.

Heavy tears rolled down her cheek as she watched from the thick glass doors. Her world shattered when they declared her dead. She had all her paychecks in hand, but she had arrived late. She had failed to save her grandmother. The only one who consoled her when the family fell apart.

No matter how much she called, pulled, shook and begged her, she didn't wake up. Maybe if she had ran a little faster, if she had worked a little harder, then maybe she wouldn't have died.

Eun-Sun didn't now how she had walked and appeared in front of the grave stone, which had her grandmother's name on it.

With her shoulders shaking terribly, and tears slipping down her face, she fell to her knees and sobbed,

"Grandma I'm sorry"
