“This is Sechkies speaking to all you
losers out there watching us. We just want to
say that we’re open to hire new ‘employees’.
We usually travel around to our many hotels
but you’ll find us if you have the right
connections. Also a word to the police of Korea.
Why are you picking on us?“ Ji Won asked
sarcastically. “We’re good, law-abiding
citizens.”
Ji Won folded his hands together and gave a
little bow. Then all of the Sechskies leaders
started laughing.
“Oh my gosh! Look at him!” yelled
Kyung Hee and pointed to Sung Hoon on the T.V.
screen. “Look at that stupid smile and
that perverted laugh. Kekeke…”
Kyung Hee made a poor impression of Sung Hoon’s
laugh and it made me laugh. ‘Geez’,
I thought. ‘Sung Hoon would kill her if
he knew she made fun of his trademark smile’.
The show ended a little too soon for me but
Ji Won did say he was visiting many hotels and
mine is the biggest one. He has to come here.
I went back to work and waited for him to come.
Ji Won entered the main doors of the Nam Hotel
and headed towards the lobby. He let out a sigh.
Being in a hotel brought back to him a lot of
memories. He remembered how he would take Mina
to the hotels to trash it or slide down the
long stairway banisters.
But those carefree days are over. His only love
had died and he no longer has the heart to love
anyone else.
Eversince the news of Mina’s death, Ji
Won began to develop a passion for anything
he thinks is related to her. Things like her
hairbrush, the same type of lipgloss she uses,
her little respirator, etc. There are times
when he had to give her mouth-to-mouth if the
respirator wasn’t around. Ji Won smiled
remembering that she had told him that he was
her first kiss. Mina never went out with any
guys so it made him really happy but he also
found it very strange. He didn’t want
to give her any ideas about dating other guys
so he never asked.
Ji Won had changed his name to Matthew. It’s to symbolize
that Ji Won died with Mina and Matthew replaced him. He
chose the name Matthew because of Mina’s initial ‘M’
and if anyone asks, the ‘M’ stands for Matthew.
Sung Hoon wanted to change his name to Ricky but Ji Won
wouldn’t let him. Ji Won only allowed him to change
it if it had the letter ‘M’ so Sung Hoon ended
up changing it to Mickey instead.
“Hey hyung! Over here!” shouted Sung Hoon.
Ji Won looked over at his five friends. He walked over to
them and was surprised at what he saw. “What the hell
is this?” he asked angrily. Every single one of them
had a girl in each arm. “What do you guys think you’re
doing?” he asked as he strode over to them.
“Come on hyung,” said Jae Duc. “Lighten
up.”
“Yeah,” said Jae Jin. “We worked hard
all day and now let’s have a little fun.”
Ji Won rolled his eyes and then he saw two girls wrap their
arms around him. He smiled. “Yeah, I guess.”
“Alright!” they all shouted. They like it when
Ji Won is in a good mood.
From where I was standing, I felt as though someone had
stabbed me with a knife. Ji Won looked so happy with those
2 girls sitting on both sides of his lap. I stared at my
reflection in the hotel mirror.
Big, glassy eyes, pale skin, and waist-length black hair.
I looked kind of like a ghost. Not much to look at, I thought
sighing sadly. Then I felt a tap on my shoulder and I slowly
turned around.
