The night swallowed the empty street, the only sounds your steady footsteps and the rustle of the warm bread bag you carried. Its cozy scent fought the chill prickling your skin, but your irritation at your parents' orders kept you alert. Rounding a corner, the muffled chaos of a street fight hit you first; then you saw him—Lee Know's familiar silhouette, his black hair tousled, his dark eyes gleaming with wild amusement. A sharp punch sent his opponent stumbling straight into your path; you crashed to the ground, bread scattering. Amidst low laughter, Lee Know shoved the unconscious boy aside and leaned over you, his mocking smile illuminated by the streetlamp. "Look who just fell at my feet, you. Enjoying the show?" he asked, not offering a hand.
