DAVID
After JD-hyung and Yosef-hyung left, Danny-hyung turned to us.
“So, what are we going to do?” He asked.
“I told you I already decided, hyung.” I quickly answered him. “I want to join Dark Knight.” I firmly said. They all look at me.
“Are you sure, David? Once we start, we can’t back out anymore.” Danny-hyung said looking concerned. “This is not a game. This is real life.” He continued.
“I know that, hyung. But my decision is final.” I said. I don’t know why they are having second thoughts now. I thought they want to join too. I sighed.
“I haven’t decided yet. You can’t join without me.” Jun told me. I sighed again.
“I can, Jun. If you don’t want to join, that

The customers love the boys! After their short break, the café became fully packed. And after hearing one song, a
YOSEFI know I’m being immature by getting jealous of a kid. Tsk! But Calli is staring at David with dreamy eyes and I really don’t like it! I sigh. Polaris Café is closing and the last customers already left. But Ayla-noona, Iyah and Calli are still on their table and laughing together. I wonder what they are laughing about… I look at the Étoile Band who are putting away their band instruments while talking and laughing at each other. I admit their band is really good. And I admit (reluctantly) that David’s voice is beautiful. But it still irritates me that Calli likes him. I frown.“If looks could kill, David is already dead since this morning.” JD suddenly says. I didn’t notice him beside me. I glance at him.“Chill, bro.” he says and pats me on the shoulder before approaching the boys
RENZOAfter Yosef and the twins left, I go to Ayla, Iyah and Calli. Ayla and Iyah are talking while Calli is staring on the direction where Yosef left a while ago. I feel guilty on making him leave without saying goodbye to her. But a mission is a mission. Dark Knight’s agents know that. It’s one of our SOP.“Hello, Jagiya.” I greet Ayla and kiss her on the cheek. She turns to me.“Hello, Jagiya.” She answers back with a sweet smile. She subtly glances at Calli and looks at me.“Where are Yosef and the twins going?” she asks.“I ask them to do an errand for me. Nothing serious, Jagiya.” I answer louder for Calli to hear.“Okay.” She says and smiles.I then turn to Iyah and Calli.“How are you d
3RD PERSONThe Dark Knight’s private plane is ready to take off anytime now. The Olympus Gang members are safely handcuffed to their seats with agents posted to guard them. Yosef chose a seat at the back to see everyone’s movements on the plane while the twins are at the front. Yosef immediately message Calli before the plane takes off.Calli, Renzo-hyung asked me to do something. I will be back tomorrow.Then Calli replies back to him.Take care, Yosef. See you.Then the flight attendant requests to turn off phones because the plane is taking off. It is a 13-hour flight to L.A. so Yosef busies himself on contacting the FBI agent who will meet them at the airport.
JDAfter Renzo-hyung talked to us, the boys continue putting away their band instruments. Then they tell me, Sean and Iyah that they are going to hang out and watch movies on Mama’s place. I allowed Danny and Jaden, Iyah allowed Jun and David and Sean allowed Sam. I reminded Danny, Jun, Jaden and David to be on the bar at exactly eight in the evening. They promise that they will and we separate ways. I went home to my real house here in Korea. I bought it a year before with the help of Renzo-hyung. I want my sisters and I to settle down here. I hope they like it. I’m lying on my bed now, trying to sleep for a bit. But I remember the short conversation I had with Iyah a while ago.**Flashback**I was disappointed when Aikon called me back because my conversation with Ayla-noona, Iyah and Calli was
3RD PERSON Miko wants to strike a conversation with Freya and Mythi but he can’t find the right timing to talk. Luckily, Mythi broke the silence first. “Miko-oppa?” Mythi calls Miko. “Yes, Mythi? Is there anything you want or need?” Miko asks her. “Is there someone young like me on the café’s staff?” Mythi asks Miko. “I think the boys are near your age.” He answers her. “The boys? Who are the boys?” She curiously asks. Even Freya looks at me, waiting for my answer. “The boys are the new band playing on the café and at the bar. Some of them are cousins of the staff including your cousins Danny and Jaden.” Miko answers Mythi. “Danny and Jaden?! OMG! They are there?” Mythi asks again. “Yes. JD-hyung introduced them to us.” Miko explai
YOSEFThe flight to L.A. is uneventful and somewhat boring. But I stayed alert all throughout because I don’t want to risk another escape attempt from Pegasus. I didn’t update Calli too to be able to focus on our mission. Kheemo and Jheemo stayed alert like me too.FBI Agent Jones and L.A.-based Dark Knight agents updated me of the Olympus Gang’s whereabouts. The Dark Knight agents also reported to me that Black Dragon’s sisters are on their way to Korea, escorted by one of our agents. I’m glad they will finally go to Korea. And I’m glad that they will be escorted to avoid problems. I’m sure JD is excited to see them. Though it won’t be obvious. I chuckled when I remembered JD’s poker face. Though lately, I notice that he’s always happy and smiling. Hmmm… My thoughts are interrupted when Kheemo approaches me.
3RD PERSON “Like I said, Apollo is our Boss’ other right hand man.” Bacchus start telling Yosef. “Him and I are rivals ever since we joined the gang at the same time. As right hand men, we are supposed to help each other but instead, we keep on suspecting each other.” “Suspecting about what?” Yosef asks him. “Double-crossing our boss.” Bacchus look him on the eyes and said. Yosef visibly winced and says, “But now, this is somewhat true on your part.” “Yes. But I’m doing this not only for myself and my team’s safety. I’m also doing this because I believe on what Black Dragon said.” Bacchus explains. “Which one?” Yosef asks again. “That Boss killed Ernest. And that he left our members to die.” Bacchus quietly said. Yosef doesn’t react on that. So Bacchus c
