April loves Black Coffee

Ven held up his hand, signaling to him that he needed to finish. Ven kept his eyes pinned to mine behind his mask. "You heard of April loves Black Coffee, TamHee. You heard how HanSuk, his men, and a street gang cornered one of the most infamous gangsters of all time in a hospital stairway. You heard of how they stabbed him to death with butterfly switchblades. You heard how Yoon JaeWon bled to death in front of Maybelline Lee. You heard how he died in her arms, and she was helpless to save him. You heard - because we gave you the order – to catch Choi SangWoo and Kim JiYong for allowing such an heinous crime to occur at such a public place. It threatened the underground's survival and concealment. You heard of April Loves Black Coffee when you were the one that caught and threw Choi SangWoo into Aajung, and you most certainly heard of April Loves Black Coffee when you dug up Yoon JaeWon's grave – on our orders – to be moved West. Their love story is not infamous because he died. It is infamous because love cannot exist in our world! LOVE is the game we use to reach our goals because LOVE is the most easy and effective way to get people to do what we want!"

Who would have thought that after 3 years, I'll see that phrase again in Solangel's story. CBU tore me apart and I've never quite recovered from it. After reading the story, I was depressed for a week. As stupid as it may sound, I cried myself to sleep because April loves Black Coffee. It struck a cord in me, and I've never been able to let it go. Every year, I'll re-read bits and pieces - only the happy moments. I won't be able to cope with reading the whole story again. I just couldn't.
