Did we all guess who sent those three thugs? Oh yeah you are right, it was Gloria. Here is a kiss for you for getting it right.
Now let's go back to an hour as Jae Won and Akwasi left to take their evening stroll. Gloria was in her house when she got a notification on her phone and when she checked it out, she realized Akwasi was out of the mansion walking down the road into the town.
Gloria who saw an opportunity to have a little chat with Jae Won called three of his guys who made their hands dirty for her. Oh trust me, she did that and asked them to drag him to her at an abandoned building.
As Akwasi and Jae Won began to take their evening stroll and the night which cast a warm glow over the neighborhood. They walked side by side with Jae Won asking a lot of questions annoying Akwasi as he was destroying the peaceful atmosphere and the sound of birds chirping in the trees making Akwasi lose his mind.
As they got to a nearby mart, Akwasi stopped suddenly and said "uurm, I think I need something chilly to take in. Let's grab some ice cream" as he wanted to get away from Jae Won's questions and answers time.
Jae Won agreed and they walked up to the mart. "You go buy I will wait outside" Jae Won said. Akwasi shrugged his shoulders as he pushed open the door and stepped inside leaving Jae Won as he wait outside.
Jae Won leaned against the wall on the other side of the mart taking in the sights and sounds of the evening. His relaxation and peaceful moment was cut short as three guys approached him their eyes fixed on him with a threatening energy that made him feel uneasy and he knew he was about to get screwed over.
The three guys approached him with a dangerous look "hey handsome, you are wanted by someone so you are coming with us" growled by a rasta guy among the three as he reached out his hand grabbing Jae Won's arm.
Jae Won's instinct came from no where and kicked in as he tried to shake off the Rasta's grip as he protested "hey, it hurt, what's going on? Hey, I'm just waiting for my friend" with a face that could melt the heart of the most dangerous man in earth but those guys were more afraid of the person who sent them.
Jae Won knew he had to stall for time as the three guys closed in with their faces menacing while hoping Akwasi would return soon in time to save him.
He decided to cooperate by pretending to walk with them as he walked slowly like a tortoise even a tortoise was faster than him scanning for an escape route or a distraction "hey, would you walk fast" said by one of the guys with a scary scar on his left of his eyebrow down to his cheeks.
Just as the guys were about to drag Jae Won off as they had had enough of Jae Won little play, Akwasi burst out of the mart when he saw that scene unfolding with a look of concern and confusion.
"Jae, what's going on?" he asked as his eyes was scanning the scene at the same time. Jae Won heaved a huge sign of relief when he heard Akwasi's voice.
With their eyes flashed with aggression, they turned to face the person who is distracting their little game. But Akwasi didn't back down and stood tall, his fist clenched as he charged at the guys like Baahubali fighting his enemies in a battle field.
With their last ounce of strength and every cunning ways they had, they fought off the guys. Jae Won landed a solid punch to the guy's jaw who seemed he was force to follow them but had to follow anyway. "Nice punch" Akwasi said as he took down another with a perfectly aimed kick in his stomach making him grimaced in pain.
"Not bad yourself" Jae Won said while the third guy with the scar attempted to flee but who was he kidding. Those two didn't spare him as determined as they were, they chased after him and beat the hell out of him. The two guys at the back run off before they even think.
The last guy was so weak they left him unattended. As they stood panting with victorious look on their faces but they were shaken, Akwasi turned to look at Jae Won while he grinned "I guess we got more than just an ice cream today" he said while he picked it up from the floor and held up his melted ice cream with a look of satisfaction.
"Definitely a sweet treat….and a fight I will probably remember for the rest of my life, hahahahahaha" Jae Won said as he laughed.
Back at the abandoned building, the three guys managed to get to the agreed meeting point looking lifeless and hoping they could receive a few pity from their madam but they were just dreaming.
They received a hot slapped when Gloria realized Jae Won was not with them as they came empty handed and bruises all over their faces.
They explained what happened to her hoping they could be free but that worsened their case.
"How could you let one guy beat you gu…." Gloria said as he was interrupted by the rasta "no madam, the two did" he said.
"That doesn't give you a free pass. You three couldn't handle these sticks they called themselves a man." She said.
Gloria was so angry she didn't even paid them their money and left but didn't forget to say one last sentence.
"You will be paid when you do a proper job next time" she said as she entered her car and drove offf leaving the three guys who thought they were going to get money but ended up loosing more because of their hospital bills.
"Damn it, this guys is gonna pay for what they did to us" said by the scar guy who seems so pissed at Akwasi and Jae Won. "Come on, let's go and take care of ourselves before our revenge" the rasta growled as he took the lead out of the abandoned building.
***
Back at Vincent's mansion, after Akwasi left for his room leaving those two love birds by themselves.
Vincent didn't lose the opportunity right in front of him to ask for forgiveness from Jae Won.
"I really am sorry to have said something to hurt you. I promise I wouldn't do that any more, I will do anything for you to forgive me" he said gazing Jae Won peach blossom eyes that stir something in his tummy he didn't quite put a name on it. His heart beating fast like a he had run 300 meters.
As Vincent spoke, his gaze remained soft and open conveying the depths of his emotions and his desire he clearly had no idea growing in him was showing it off as he wanted to make things right between them.
The only thing Jae Won saw was a gaze that begged for forgiveness, understanding and for a second chance. Jae Won smiled beautifully confusing Vincent who was busily asking for forgiveness "what?" he asked.
Jae Won moved a little closer to Vincent and placed his lips near his ears as he spoke softly "it's okay, all is forgiven. I wasn't that mad in the first place".
Jae Won's breath brushed against Vincent skin giving him a tingling feeling from his ear down to his foot as he didn't even hear what Jae Won said.
"Huh?" Is what he was able to utter after a few seconds of silence as the feeling took over his entire body and thought.
"I said, you are forgiven" Jae Won repeated what he said and the moment all the words escape from his mouth, Vincent hugged him tightly "tha…thank..thank you" he said as he finally caught his breath but didn't forget to hold him tightly not allowing him to breathe.
"I can…I can't breathe Vince" he said as he Vincent loosened his hug. "I like the way you called me. Can you call me that often?" He asked with a sparkly eyes.
"Dream off" Jae Won said as he tried to walk off away from Vincent but his wrist was held by Vincent as he spoke in a sexy yet hoarse voice that sent Jae Won's heart flying away from his body almost ripping off from his chest "go away" Jae Won said as he almost pulled him in and kiss him till he dropped.
"Wait, let me go take care of your bruise before it get infected and your cut" he said as he dragged Jae Won along with him to their room.
He pulled out the first aid box from the drawer and did his magic on Jae Won's bruise and cut.
"Uurm, thank you" Jae Won said and Vincent replied in a second "no need…do you wanna maybe go for a horse ride with me?" he asked nervously as he scratched the back of his head and rubbed his hands together.
Staring at Jae Won waiting for a reply Jae Won spoke making him shocked
"Urrrm….no" Jae Won replied
Vincent, "..."
