“Love, in the spring, lalala ah.”

Kim Kangwoo, who was humming the lyrics to the song playing on the radio, stretched his body backwards. He checked his watch. He had to wait a good four or five hours for the event to end.

“Did I lend my cell phone for nothing?”

He was sick with boredom. He did the same when he changed the radio channel and tossed his body open.

He’d rather go to a nearby internet cafe and play a game for entertainment.

At that time, he remembered the words of CEO Kim, who told him not to leave the car and to always be on standby in case something happened. Kim Kangwoo closed his eyes and hummed the song again.

When he thought of the money accumulated in his bank account, the song came out. Rather than telling his sister, he thought about taking a leave of absence and then taking one more semester, but then he shook his head.

Compared to the intensity of the labor, the wages were generous, they took care of each other a lot, and whenever he saw his brothers-in-laws, they gave him pocket money and bought him food. Objectively, it’s a very sweet spot, but for some reason he didn’t feel like continuing. Lee Wooyeon was scary.

It was strange. It’s not like he yelled at him, or beat him up. Lee Wooyeon never even said any curse words to him.

“Ahh!”

Kim Kangwoo got up in surprise. Someone had hit the car glass with their hand. He quickly rolled down the driver’s window.

It was Lee Wooyeon.

“What are you doing here?”

Since it was in the middle of the awards ceremony, Kim Kangwoo couldn’t hide his doubt and asked.

“Where is he?”

Kim Kangwoo at first doubted his ears. Lee Wooyeon was talking nonsense to him.

“Yes? What is it?”

“Where is Choi Inseop!?”

Kangwoo Kim shrugged his shoulders. This was also the first time he saw Lee Wooyeon scream.

“I, I don’t know. Hyung, where are you going…”

Lee Wooyeon took out his cell phone from his pocket and held it out. There was a text message from Inseop stamped on it.

[I left the envelope with Kangwoo.]

Lee Wooyeon’s first thought after receiving the text message was not ‘what kind of envelope’, but ‘why leave it to? Kim Kangwoo’. No matter how much he thought about it, he couldn’t understand it. Eventually, during the awards ceremony, he apologized and stood up. He ran to the waiting room, but Choi Inseop was nowhere to be found. Inseop’s phone was also turned off. He didn’t have a good feeling. In the end, he searched every nook and cranny of the underground parking lot and found Kim Kangwoo.

“Oh, the envelope.”

Kim Kangwoo took out an envelope from his pocket and handed it to Lee Wooyeon. Lee Wooyeon snatched the envelope. Enclosed in the envelope was a check and a piece of paper with a short note on it.

[This is the cost of repairing the car. If it’s not enough, I’ll send you more. PS: Always be healthy and happy.]

He looked at the back of the paper to see if there was anything else, but that was it. Lee Wooyeon laughed.

“What did Mr. Inseop say?”

“What?”

Kim Kangwoo was relieved inwardly as he questioned. Fortunately, the speech returned to honorific words.

“What did he say when he gave you this? Damn it, did you put a dick in your ear hole? Why don’t you understand what I’m saying!”

Kim Kangwoo almost cried. This time, he even added a vulgar curse to his words. He looked around to see if there was a hidden camera, but there was no camera or staff.

“He-he just gave it to me and left… He said to give it to you after the awards ceremony.”

“Fuck.”

Lee Wooyeon spat out curse words and ran his fingers through his hair. It was like a scene from a movie, so Kim Kangwoo still couldn’t abandon the hidden camera hypothesis.

“Anything else?

However, as soon as he met Lee Wooyeon’s glimmering eyes, that hypothesis was immediately discarded.

“Anything else…”

He had to come up with something if he wanted to live. Kim Kangwoo instinctively realized this and eagerly recalled the last time he saw Inseop.

“He said to hand over the envelope, and um… oh, that’s right. It seemed that something bad had happened. His expression was a little dark and his voice was weak, so I asked him where he was sick.

“And was he sick?”

Lee Wooyeon grabbed the car window and asked hastily. Kangwoo lowered his head.

“No. He said he wasn’t sick. He just said he was going back first because he had an urgent matter.”

“What’s his fucking urgent business!”

Lee Wooyeon seemed to turn around in nervousness. Choi Inseop was not someone who would disappear irresponsibly like this. Even if he had something forbidden, he would have fully explained it to him and asked for his understanding.

“I, I don’t know. I don’t know…”

Kim Kangwoo answered in a trembling voice. Lee Wooyeon pressed his forehead with the palm of his hand. The fact that he was an asshole when he saw Inseop last time made him feel like his head was about to explode.

It was then. A courier on a motorcycle approached the van, checked the plate number, and removed his helmet.

“Delivery. Please sign it.”

Kim Kangwoo quickly got out of the driver’s seat, signed the takeover, and received a bouquet of flowers.

The delivery man who recognized Lee Wooyeon glanced at him to see if he wanted to talk to him, but Lee Wooyeon did not even make eye contact with him. It was only after the delivery man left that Kim Kangwoo handed the bouquet to Lee Wooyeon with trembling hands.

“…Hyung told me to give this to you.”

Lee Wooyeon glared at Kim Kangwoo with an expression saying, “What kind of bullshit is that?”

“He was going to give it to you directly after the awards ceremony, but he said he was sorry that he couldn’t. So, sorry. Thinking about it now…”

The bouquet made of blue hydrangeas and white Juliet roses was a color combination that took into consideration the outfit Lee Wooyeon was wearing today. It was Choi Inseop’s idea. Accepting the bouquet, Lee Wooyeon burst into laughter.

“Ha ha ha ha ha.”

When Lee Wooyeon started to laugh, Kim Kangwoo felt relieved. The bouquet though, it seemed like he felt a little relieved after receiving it…

“Fuck!”

Lee Wooyeon slammed the bouquet in his hand onto the bonnet. Flowers were scattered in all directions. Kim Kangwoo felt genuine fear at the sight of Lee Wooyeon sublimating a grotesque and violent scene into a photo shoot. And at the same time, he realized what the first brother-in-law meant.

‘When I look at Lee Wooyeon, I think that he is not just too good-looking.’

“He’s playing with people a lot. Fuck.”

Lee Wooyeon muttered through his teeth as he brushed his disheveled hair. Not even half of the flowers in the bunch were left. Kim Kangwoo looked at the precious flower and suddenly felt his gaze and turned his head.

“Car”

“What?”

“Don’t make me say it twice.”

“Get in the car..”

Lee Wooyeon opened the driver’s door and threw his half-remaining bouquet onto the passenger seat.

“Actor. Where are you going?”

When Lee Wooyeon tried to climb into the car, Kim Kangwoo was startled and asked. It was in the middle of the awards ceremony. It would have been possible if he had not attended from the beginning, but it was unheard of for a promising candidate to disappear midway through.

“You can’t go now.”

He didn’t know, but it must be at the level of a broadcast accident.

“Of course not.”

Lee Wooyeon answered meekly. Still, he was glad he could talk about work…

“If you held on to Choi Inseop, this wouldn’t have happened.”

Not fortunate. He couldn’t speak. It felt like talking to a wall. Kim Kangwoo answered with a trembling voice.

“I, I didn’t know that I should have held him back. I’m sorry.”

Lee Wooyeon ignored Kim Kangwoo’s apology and climbed into the driver’s seat. At the sound of the engine starting, Kangwoo clung to the bonnet one last time.

“I’ll look for him, so the actor should go in first…”

Lee Wooyeon looked away. Kim Kangwoo noticed. The fact that a man would push past him casually like this.

When Kim Kangwoo stepped back, Lee Wooyeon turned the steering wheel.

“Actor!”

Kim Kangwoo, who suddenly remembered something, called Wooyeon and stopped him. His face was full of annoyance. If he called just one more time, his swore to run him over with the car.

“I just remembered. Please go to the airport.”

“Airport?”

Lee Wooyeon’s eyes froze. It was as if he had heard a word he shouldn’t have heard. Kangwoo stuttered and continued his explanation.

“Hyung, he came out today with a suitcase. Besides, my second brother-in-law gave him a plane ticket today…”

When he picked up the envelope in the locker room earlier, he unintentionally checked the contents. After hearing the explanation, Lee Wooyeon let out a small sigh.

“It’s okay. Inseop doesn’t even have a passport anyway.”

“He gave him his passport…”

“What kind of bullshit is that!”

Is it possible to say the word bullshit with such an accurate pronunciation?

Kim Kangwoo answered in a crawling voice, sweating in cold sweat.

“A copy…”

Lee Wooyeon suddenly remembered that he had submitted a copy of Inseop’s ID to the company because of salary problems. It must have been a photocopy of the passport.

“…”

Lee Wooyeon put it aside. He was so angry that his eyes widened. It was a completely different matter for Inseop to simply turn off his cell phone and go to America. The question of why in the world did not leave his head, but the first priority was to find Choi Inseop.

“When Inseop calls, ask him where he is. When he appears, grab him by any means.”

“Yes! I understand.”

Kim Kangwoo answered with a disciplined attitude. Lee Wooyeon drove the car and disappeared.

“Ha….”

Kim Kangwoo sighed and sat down.

The stormy moment has passed. His legs trembled. He still couldn’t believe what he had seen. Lee Wooyeon, the world’s Lee Wooyeon, acting like that out of lust…

The roses scattered on the floor let him know that the situation just before was not a dream.

“This is not the time.”

Kim Kangwoo jumped up from his seat at the thought of informing his first brother-in-law of the situation. As he searched his pockets to find his cell phone, he realized that Lee Wooyeon had gone with his cell phone.

“I had to give my cell phone to him so I could get in touch with him.”

While trying to find a pay phone, he suddenly turned his head in the direction where Lee Wooyeon had disappeared.

Do one usually get so mad at one’s manager for disappearing during an awards ceremony? Enough to jump out during the awards ceremony? It wasn’t that he took the money away, instead didn’t he gave it away?

… If he gets caught, will hyung be safe?

Goosebumps ran down his spine. After he told him a useless fact, he was flooded with regret, but the car had already left.
