Chapter fifteen (1/1)

Onew POV Taemin’s uncle is dead? Wait wait... Taemin’s mom has a brother? Or is it the father? No, it can’t be the morther because she had Park as her name before marring. So Taemin’s father had a brother? I never saw him…. Was he ever around? And why the hell is his name in the mafia documents?Taemin’s umma must have been dragged inside or something.. there is no way a woman would go into the mafia for her own will …right? And Taemin’s appa and uncle? Is that part of the family all involved with the mafia? Like his grandfather and so on? I have to see this…I wrote in the corner of the page some letters and he started searching it for me. This time, what I was looking for was more specific. I wanted the all background of Taemin’s family. If there was a place where I could find out every little detail about someone’s life, is right here.They have everyone that was once in the mafia or had some troubles with them. But this is more complexe than it seems. This location is one of those places you wish you will never have to face. Entering can be easy, but leaving is the most difficult part.I know that this is a black hole that pulls you in and never lets you out again. Think about it. On only one place, you have access to everything and to everyone. Weeknesses and strong points, you have everything in your hands. It’s a temptacion. It’s a dangerous temptacion. I’ll just look for necessary information and get the hell out of here.Minho POV “I’m going now…”“Did you make the phone call?! Is she letting me go now?! Is she following us to America or something?!” I sighned annoyedly and nodded, just answering as quick as possible so I could leave the house. But I guess my friend is one of the tough ones….“Speak, please.”“Yes Jonghyun, I’ve made the damn phone call, now I have to go to work okay? Go sleep or something. I’m going.”I was already late since my shower had taken a lot more time than planed, but it’s okay since Key will never notice it. Also, my secretary won’t open her mouth to anyone. I just have the luck to have quiet people around me, ah. Lucky me.“Fine… be safe!” Jonghyun nodded and ran back to his room, probably going to sleep. Lucky bastard. Jonghyun doesn’t have a job for almost two months now. He worked for Key, his brother and also my best friend, but then he quited the job god knows why. He lives here with my parents money and to spend on things to himself, he uses my money.He goes with me sometimes to work, since he likes being there, but is very rare to see him around. He normaly goes to work with me when he has relacionship problems or something, so that after work, he already has me and we can go for a drink. All night long. I always end up with orange juice, and he ends up passed out.But I’m not complaining right now. It’s fun to have my best friend around sometimes. But in other situations it’s not. Jonghyun is a special kind of friend, one of those that you look fowars to spend a day, but only ONE day. I shook my head a little and laughed quietly, opening the door and leaving the house. I entered my car and started the engine, but before I could move any further into my street, my phone rang. At first I ignored it, because I was driving, but then it rang 3 more times and I got sick of it. I pulled over and picked the phone from my case.“What?!”“Don’t fucking answer the phone like that Minho! It can be a fucking client!” Jiyong screamed from the other side of the phone, making me facepalm myself. How many times more do I need to learn that I have to read the ID of the caller before answering the freacking phone?! Then shit like this happens!“I’m sorry… I was driving and---““I don’t want excuses Minho! I want those freacking numbers Key said he would send me. It’s been a fucking week!”“And what do I have to do with those, Jiyong-hyung?”“Nothing. I just want them. And because I’ve called his office non stop now, I presume he’s not there. So go there and give them to me. Quick, quick!”“Okay, I will. But Jiyong-hyung, I highly recommend you some vacations. You’re too stressed with business.”“Sure Minho. Why not! Fucking God. Go get me the numbers and stop being such a bitch. Goodbye.”He hanged up on me and I looked at the screen for a few seconds. Did my hyung just called me a bitch? Okay, now I’m sure he broke up with his girlfriend or something. He hasn’t called me a bitch since he started dating. Lucky me, ah.He’s a violent hyung with words, that’s true, but he’s sweet when he wants to. I guess I’m the only one receiving this treatment because he can’t win anything against me. Games, I mean. He’s a little like me in that way, obssessed with winning. But now I’m like he’s slave, because he’s better than me in the business field.But I don’t mind, at all, since he’s the one that pays me at the end of the month.I dropped my phone on the seet next to mine and speeded up down the road again, entering the highway. I turned the radio on and chuckled. This is just like the old Minho. I’ve been a little to soft since this morning, and it’s not a mistery why.This morning I was running so I wouldn’t punch Jonghyun, so I wouldn’t punch Jiyong and so I wouldn’t punch myself. But after crashing with that guy…Onew, my need of punching stuff flewed away just like that. I’ve been wanting to kill someone for a year now. I’ve become a working machine. I used everything I could to just run away from those things that made me happy. Like listening to music while driving. But now I just feel like doing those again.It’s a fact that people get more stressed than usual when their work becomes a routine. I’ve been working on companies since I graduated, and it’s been afecting my old happy routine. I was a sociable Minho that went drinking with friends and made time to be with his family.But now I’m a Minho that only speaks when necessary, orders around his workers, just plainly drives to work, buys beer and drinks it at the office while reading that week’s profile of the company, and sometimes doesn’t even sleeps at home. I’ve basically becomed automatic.Maybe what I needed to be pushed again to my old person was really a little crash. To meet another guy that made my blood boil but at the same time, made my heart soft. I needed a name haunting my head day and night again, I needed a fresh face again on my mind to make me happy again. I just needed a new goal.I chuckled again and pulled over on the company’s park. I got out of the car and gathered my files on the backseat into my case. I closed the car and jogged into the building, calling the elevator immediately to the 24th floor.The ride only stoped two times and before I knew it, I was on my stop. I got out and walked slowly through the hallway. Key’s secretary was out, so I thought that it was okay to just enter the office, since I’m a regular. I sighned and opened the door slowly, peeking inside.“ONEW?!”“AHHH!! WHAT THE FUCK?!”  Onew POV “Oh shit… so many of them.. are you kidding me?”I scrolled down the page, reading the infinite names of the Lee family. I would never imagine so many of them had problems with the mafia. But it was curious, since only Taemin’s appa and uncle actually entered to the mafia. Why?I gasped and stoped touching the computer completely when a light appeared on the screen. It was all white now, and I didn’t knew what had happened. I tried touching the enter button but nothing happened. I gulped and crossed my fingers.“Please, please, please, make me go unnoticed please. If those guys see me on their page I’ll die!”Some long seconds went by and suddently, the page went back to normal. I eyed it for another seconds before quicly opening another browser and looking for any viruses sent by them to find my location. Nothing, there was nothing.“HOLY SHIT! THANK GOD!”I threwed my hands up in the air and sighned deeply with relief. I was a hell of a hacker! I just hoped that that thing wouldn’t happen again, because I wouldn’t go unnoticed twice, I was sure of that. But anyway, I continued reading the information.But something was different. It was updated… someone updated the page I was reading. I stoped again and opened quicly the browser again to check for any viruses, but again, there was nothing. But if the person updated the information, he had to notice me there.I shook my head and grabbed it with my hands. It could only be two things. Or the person that updated the page was god damn stupid or someone was helping me. And I was a little more convinced of the first one. Who knows! This mafia guy can really be a retarded.But then I saw a detail that was damn important. The reason why only Taemin’s father and uncle entered the mafia. And it wasn’t like the other information I got. It was like a biography. Of the dead uncle.“HOLLY-MOTHER-OF-GOD! H-HOW!?”I opened the text on another page and started reading, nodding my head when the explanation made perfect sense. Of course. It was logic, pure logic. They entered the mafia because it was the only way of clearing the debt of their family.I continued reading, now more alert of any important detail when I faced for the first time the name of the dead uncle. I’m sure I’ve heard it before… but where? It was so familiar it hurted my dumb brain. I sighned and trewed my body onto the chair, shaking my head from side to side, trying to get the origin of the name out of my brain.I opened my eyes suddently, jumping up whe extasy when I remember where I saw the name. But suddenlty my name was shouted.“ONEW?!”“AHHHH! WHAT THE FUCK?!” Minho POV “What the hell are you doing here?!”“I could ask you the same! And what are you doing on Key’s computer?”“N-nothing! Go away!”He hugged the screen of the computer and turned it to the left completely, so I wouldn’t  see what he was doing. I sighned and shook my head.“Who gave you permition to be here Onew?”“Key himself.” He mumbled, trying hard to close everything on the computer. I nodded and went closer, grabbing his wrist, making him face me with wide eyes. He looked kind of defenceless right now, and I felt a pressure rise on my south parts. I quicly letted go of him, clearing my throat.“I-I’m sorry… I just came to collect some information to my boss. You can stay as long as you want.” He shooked his head quicly and turned off the computer, getting up from the chair next.“I was just leaving actually… I-I’ve got to go somewhere now. Goodbye.” I nodded and waved slightly, and he waved back rushedly. I chuckled when he was already out of the office and turned back to Key’s pile of files, finding the one I needed rather quicly.Kwangmin must have organizated this while Key was out. He’s been out a lot since his boyfriend got pregnant. Must be nice…I grabbed my phone and texted Jiyong-hyung with the numbers he needed. Before leaving, I looked around and chuckled again when my eyes met the computer, remembering Onew’s surprised eyes. So big and brown that could drown me anytime.I sighned happily and opened the door to leave, following the same path I had token here.
