Chapter 11: My Dear Friend's Viewpoint (Part 2)
HAA
HAAA
*STABING*
Ugh
"Ah…"
"Jiu…"
What have I done?
I Killed Jiu…!
…
..
"Well, let me ask you this, did you murder 21:30, 15th of this month, and killed Jiu-Yun in his house located on Geumbawi road?" Police officer.
"Yes, I did…" Kang.
"..., what you were doing in the victim's house?" The police officer.
"he invited me to celebrate the mission's success." Kang
Ah, I wish I can take it all back. I am in a hectic mess, I still can't believe… I killed my dearest friend.
"What is the mission?" The police officer.
"..." Kang.
"Stop recording." The police officer.
The officer walked out of the investigation room, I can't tell him about the mission… I am a dump, I should have never trusted my problems to other people.
I killed Jiu, and my Deahyoon is dead… the last people I can consider a family are dead, and I killed the last. I accepted a one-time job from Minji, and it was filming a couple entering and leaving a hotel. I knew it wasn't ethical, but I needed that money, the payout was heavy and it wasn't borderline illegal.
After completing the mission I got a lot of cash from Minji, and Jiu invited me to his house, it wasn't unordinary, he didn't look guilty, Jiu didn't look guilty, in his house alone we celebrated and drank, I was genuinely happy…
but a call from the hospital shattered that into the ground. Jiu was getting more sujo when I got that call, Deahyoon was dead, he was given an overdose of meperidine… moments later I got an email from Minji, a picture of my only friend beside the bed of my only son with a syringe in his hand… he was smiling… smiling on top of my dead son's corp with 2 other people.
When I got out of the apartment, I saw Jiu and the 2 other people I saw in the picture from that email, what he is doing? Where did he go? Where is the soju? Lots of questions jammed my functioning brain. I wasn't believing what happened, my son is dead! Did Jiu kill my son? Why?
I should have never stayed there, I should have left for the hospital…
"Jiu where were you!?" Kang.
I asked him, and he told me the truth.
"ah, sorry Kang-nim I had some work to take care of, I forgot to bring more soju." Jiu
At that moment I was losing it, he was laughing with the two other men.
"What was the work?" Kang.
He should have said the truth…
"ah, cut it loose a bit you had too much soju earlier. I was delivering some stuff to the…" Jiu.
"STOP LYING TO ME! WHAT WERE YOU DOING IN THE HOSPITAL?" Kang.
I should have told him that my son Deahyoon was dead at that point…
He started walking towards me, I was full of anger. My not-so-sober brain was jam-packed with unnecessary questions.
"look Kang-nim, the hospital should have called you by no…" Jiu.
*PUNCH*
"What are…" Jiu.
*PUNCH*
"Stop!" the man with the sharp face from the picture.
*PUNCH*
I punched and I was punched…
The other tiny man that was there had a knife in his hand, I was full of tears blood, and mud on my face. My Deahyoon was dead and for the not-sober Kang, my friend Jiu killed my son with the two other men, after thinking about it I was so bad in that fight, drunk and not armed.
I should have been the one who died, instead, I beat the two men after struggling to keep a stand. the moment I did the unthinkable came...I took the knife from the ground, the other two men kept their distance from me, and I headed towards Jiu...
*TEARS*
AHHHH
*STAB*
And after that I freaked, I suddenly felt I did something wrong, Jiu would never harm me or my son. that's what I was thinking about seeing Jiu bleed to death…
When I got back to my mind and tried to call for help, the two men knocked me out. I woke up in a classy office, four men were there, the two from earlier, Minji, and the wealthy man from Minji's office, I knew that I shouldn't have trusted him, but here we are…
"so Kang, you killed your friend, right? Hahaha, this is hilarious I never thought you would have the balls to do it, but the plan worked better than I thought…" Minji.
"Minji shut up!" The wealthy man behind the desk.
Ah, I had no power to move, and I was tied up to a chair…
"Kang, you killed your friend because of a debt between you two." The wealthy man.
I didn't get what he was talking about at first…
"We have one last job for you, if you don't want Jiu's daughter to die you should execute it flawlessly" The wealthy man.
I was still doubting my friend at that point, why would I do anything for his family…
"stop staring like that, Ha ha ha ha… we killed your son and you killed your friend I still can't believe it… Ha ha ha…" Minji.
At that moment I connected everything… I can't imagine how Jiu felt…
I cried so much, Kang you stupid shit, that was my worst moment, and from there it was all past the point of measuring, the man behind the desk described the job details, Minji was laughing… and I was so angry, angry to the extent that I broke the chair and went directly towards Minji. I wanted to kill him so badly.
*GUNSHOT*
Ugh, that was a gunshot and I was the target, I was hit in my leg.
"he doesn't seem to be ready for our job. Drop him by the police in Gangbuk, I will call that center's chief, make sure to tell him what he needs to know to keep his mouth shut." the man behind the desk.
"consider it done Park Gon-nim" Minji.
I opted to not tell anything about them after I saw how the police treated me, I was never able to protect Deahyoon, and the least I can do is not make trouble for the family of the friend I betrayed. I had a lot of time to think about what I have done, I wished for another chance, and I rotted in the prison waiting for my trial. I was having lots of low moments, after spending 5 years in prison without a trial or a sentence. The zombies came, and I fled from the prison that day. I tried finding my reason to live but they turned into zombies, and all of Jiu's family transformed except his little daughter.
Years passed and I forgave myself a bit, the world became a massacre, I survived with the little girl here and there for 3 years until I stumbled upon an exploratory group from the Namsan base, they took me and I wasn't that caring about my life, they said she was a virus user and they will take care of her, so I didn't mind. I spent one year of my life building an enormous wall with a bunch of other people, I wanted a place for that girl.
After some time a freshman arrived, his name is Deahyoon, not like my sick son, the new Deahyoon had no life in his eyes. I tried getting close to him, I don't know why, it's just a selfish desire.
…
He is quite strong, I saw him transporting three cement bags like it was nothing…
…
We are getting closer, there was also this spoiled kid in my group, he was getting along with Deahyoon so well, unlike him I was very triggered by this kid's actions… I still liked both of them.
Today I discovered that Deahyoon had a family, a beautiful wife, and a cute little boy, he even has an angry sister, she tried to kill him but I was between the bullet and his family without knowing, it's not like I like him that much. I was just too anxious about his sister's feelings. He didn't seem the type that would do the bad stuff that his sister accused him of, and I always wanted to punish myself for what I did. He said he considered me a brother today, he didn't say it out loud but I felt it, I will at least do one of my friend's justice
