Young Saeng sat in the back of the car, not having a specific location to go. He had accomplished the simple job effortlessly and now had nothing to do, he ordered the driver to simply drive around town whilst he gazed out of the tinted windows. There were couples wearing matching clothes roaming the streets hand in hand lovingly and families walking in huge bundles merrily.
To him, all the shops on the streets looked exactly the same; the interior and exterior of the shops were all covered in Christmas decorations, although the festival was yet to come.
“Stop here,” he ordered the driver coldly, the driver parked his car on the side of the road and immediately got out of his driver’s seat to open the door for his superior.
