Sometimes, they don’t come home.
He leaned his head against the window, the thick fog stretching out for as far as he could see. It obscured the buildings and skyscrapers, an eerie sort of haze being brought to the city. The plain black briefcase that lay beside him seemed to call to him, and he would ignore its beckoning hand no longer.
*Fleeing footsteps. The sound of punches hitting their fleshy marks.
Jaejoong reached for another cigarette but his hand stilled on the package, remembering an old fight from years ago. Smoking hurt the lungs. It caused vocal problems. An addiction that was hard to break, and Changmin had hated the smell anyway.
*A strangled cry. More kicks landing. A quiet, maniacal laugh.
There had been a man once. He had stared at Changmin with great interest, studying him as they had bought coffee in a shop. The man had shown up again at the fallen officer’s funeral, just watching. His dark eyes had met Jaejoong’s before looking away, back towards the closed white casket.
*The whistling whir of a high-caliber bullet piercing the air.
A numb feeling spread throughout his body, and his mind wiped itself clean of any hesitation. He lifted the handle of the briefcase and stood, his polished boots squeaking on the floor. He inhaled and exhaled slowly, knowing that elsewhere another drew his final breaths—he who would not be expecting such a visitor.
Sometimes, they don’t come home.
