Flashbacks
Haejun was walking alone in the corridor of the headquarters while reading the list of names that today will be taking part in his bomb assembly class. Occasionally the man flips the paper with a frown, and that is enough to make strange Yuka who happens to be walking in different directions with Haejun.
“Im Yuka.”
Yuka stopped her lazy steps when her coach suddenly called out to her. Though just a moment ago he was already quite happy when Haejun seemed cool with his paper and did not pay any attention to it at all, but suddenly the man called out to him and made his positive mood crumble because of his mentor.
“Ya captain, you call me.”
Yuka started to turn around and showed her formal attitude towards Haejun. While waiting for Haejun to continue his words, he continued, Yuka began to pray in her heart that Haejun this time did not burden her with such a heavy task as last week until it almost broke her head because she was so difficult to do the tasks given by Haejun.
“You did the job I gave you last week?”
Suddenly Yuka felt regret because she had to pass the same path as Haejun. He was supposed to accept Jaeho's invitation to eat in the cafeteria, but he refused in hopes that he could rest his eyes a little because lately his sleep was a little disturbed due to the tasks that he was doing
presented by Lee Haejun.
“Tuu.. gas..? Sssudah captain.” replied Yuka stuttered. Actually, he has not completed his tasks properly. A week ago Lee Haejun gave him the task of memorizing the basic series of low explosive time bombs so that he became more proficient in making bombs, but because he is weak in stringing cables and concocting chemicals to make bomb triggers, he said, eventually he gave up on the task and preferred to learn the shooting techniques that were his specialty.
“Hmm good, then you come with me now.” Haejun said firmly while walking quickly leaving Yuka behind. Yuka, who was initially a little upset with her captain, suddenly panics when Haejun tells her to follow him, as it means Haejun will take her to the rooftop and
told him to show the results of his learning so far.
“Tamatlah my history, the cruel mentor will definitely punish me all out.” complained Yuka frustrated while walking weakly following the steps of Haejun who was far in front of him.
Haejun pushed firmly against the glass door that was in front of him and he slightly looked back to see Yuka's whereabouts. But apparently Yuka looked so slow for him, that he felt impatient and immediately shouted Yuka's name so that the woman immediately rushed to walk towards the rooftop.
“Im Yuka, if you don't get in within ten seconds I will punish you for running around the field fifteen times.” Haejun shouted loudly. Hearing that Yuka immediately panicked and immediately ran as fast as she could to avoid punishment. Because four days ago he had received punishment from Haejun because he was late for martial training, and now he did not want to be punished again by his fierce mentor.
“Arghhh, crazy mentor base!” gerutu Yuka was annoyed with the hunting breath as she had to run along the corridor towards the training room that was on the rooftop.
“Captain... hosh hosh, forgive me.”.
Yuka was panting while posting her body in front of Haejun. Seeing Yuka being exhausted, Haejun directly showed her stopwatch to Yuka so that the woman saw the time she spent running along the corridor of the headquarters.
“You're one second late. After practice you should immediately run around the field fifteen times.”
“Awhat? But captain, I'm only one second late. Please grant me forgiveness for this time.” please Yuka with a face of compassion. Today he promised his friends he would eat bulgogi and drink soju to celebrate Shinjung's birthday. But if Haejun punishes him for running around the field he will not be able to join his friends to celebrate the party.
“You still have to serve your sentence even if you are only one second late, because the punishment remains a punishment.” Haejun said in a statement. Suddenly Yuka felt her knees go limp and she wanted to cry rolling around on the floor. He felt that Haejun had been too hard on him and treated him like a man, when clearly he was a woman who should have been treated a little more
special from others.
“Im Yuka, what are you doing there? Quickly get into the ranks, you don't want to get extra punishment don't you?” snarled Haejun next to him. With a lazy Yuka immediately walked gontai towards the back row. Today he was lazily staring at the face of his cruel mentor.
Ahh, you captain sucks! Even though your face is handsome, your heart is as bad as a monster face!
As long as Haejun explained about how to assemble a bomb and defuse a good bomb
and true, Yuka continued to swear Haejun inwardly. None of the explanations given by Haejun were listened to by Yuka. At the moment he is really not in the mood to do training, and he should not be taking bomb-assembling classes today because he is not very good at assembling these chemical items. But again Haejun forces her and insists she take the class because she thinks Yuka does need to get it. Precisely Haejun did not really tell him to deepen the techniques of shooting him because his technique has been quite great. Though Lee Haejun should have given more intensive shooting training like his other colleagues, but again the man did not do it and made him have to be tormented with training that he did not like.
“Im Yuka.”
Suddenly Haejun exclaimed loudly from the front and told Yuka to come forward. With a sense of caution Yuka began to advance forward while muttering in her heart may Haejun not give her strange orders because he did not listen to all the explanations of the captain.
“You've listened to all my explanations, haven't you?”
“Iiya captain.”
“Then show your colleagues how to assemble this explosive into a low explosive time bomb, you tried it last night, didn't you?” asked Haejun with a sly grin. Yuka slit her hard-earned saliva while looking at the explosives that were in front of her. Yesterday night he did not practice stringing explosives and instead learned new shooting techniques until he fell asleep in the shooting practice room. And now if Lee Haejun asks him to assemble the bomb, it's clear that he can't do it. He has absolutely no idea how!
“Owh how is this? I don't know how to do it at all.” Yuka murmured in panic while picking up the wires and battery stones that were in front of her. With clumsy hands, Yuka started trying to connect the wires with battery stones, then she started taking gunpowder, sulphate powder, and charcoal powder to mix into one container. But to be honest he did not know how much of the powder should be input, he only did it based on conscience and instinct. Next to her Haejun looked so serious looking at Yuka's flickering fingers mixing the powders
trigger the bomb so that the bomb can explode strongly. But several times he noticed Yuka who was too excessive in taking gunpowder and also sulphate powder so he was sure if the bomb used by Yuka it would not work at all. Moreover, Yuka was also wrong in stringing the timer to be paired on the bomb, the woman instead took six battery stones, but only took four, he said, so Haejun was not sure if the timer bomb would be lit accurately.
“How, can you do it?”
“Bbbisa captain, I can do it.” Yuka replied shaking with increasingly heavy sweat flooding her face. If only Haejun could hear the sound of Yuka's heartbeat, the man would definitely ridicule her since he was currently really very nervous.
“Well you all notice what Miss Im is doing in front of you, after which you can compare it to the explanation that I have told you a while ago, so as you have guessed, Miss Im has not noticed me at all and is just busy daydreaming about unimportant things. Am I right Miss Im?”
Yuka looked up her head and looked shyly at the faces of her friends who were currently laughing at her. They all laughed at his stupidity in assembling a bomb that was really very wrong. Yuka then looked horror at Haejun's smiling face satisfied with laughing at her stupidity.
“Now you go to your respective places and start assembling your bombs as I have explained. Do you guys understand?”
“Ya, we understand captain.”
The other agents immediately dispersed and rushed to their desks to make homemade bombs. Meanwhile, Yuka was still faithfully standing next to Haejun with a face that glinted furiously. Right now he is trying to control his emotions so that he does not embarrass himself again by yelling at the annoying man who is standing haughty next to him.
“So yesterday you really practiced?”
Yuka turned her head sharply at Haejun who was looking straight at his comrades who were assembling the bombs. The woman resentfully shook her head while exclaiming loudly if she did not assemble the bomb at all. Last night he was too cool to practice shooting until he fell asleep in the shooting hangar. Toh free
only he lied if his lie did not save him at all, just his lie made him even more unlucky because it had to be humiliated like this.
“No captain, last night I practiced shooting in the hangar.” Yuka said as is. Lee Haejun smiled half at Yuka while leaning his face right in front of Yuka's face. Actually last night he came to the hangar to check the hangar's equipment, but when he goes inside he finds Yuka sleeping soundly in the hangar with a curved position while hugging his caliber 6A pistol. Feeling that Yuka was very careless from sleeping while hugging a firearm, Haejun finally pulled the gun from Yuka's hand and placed it next to Yuka's body so that the gun would not explode while Yuka was asleep.
“Huh, you finally admitted your lies as well Miss Im, and I appreciate your honesty. But since you've been fooling me, now you have to run around the field for twenty-five rounds.”
“What!” yuka shouted in shock. Quickly he bent his lips tightly because at this time Haejun's face was still right in front of him. Had Haejun not been scolding her, perhaps Yuka would have used the opportunity to admire the handsome face of her mentor. But unfortunately the handsome face had a very cruel and arbitrary attitude, making Yuka undo her intention to admire the beautiful handsome face.
“Msorry my captain, I did not mean to yell at you.” said Yuka stuttered with a feeling of guilt. Haejun raised his hand and stopped right in front of Yuka's face. The man recklessly pinched Yuka's right cheek while shouting in front of her for Yuka to immediately do her orders before she increased the amount of punishment she had given earlier.
“Then quickly do my command, run around the field for twenty-five rounds before I add it to thirty rounds because you just shouted in front of your mentor.”
“Aaa. yes captain, I will run soon.”
Yuka immediately ran away from Haejun after Haejun removed her pinch from her cheek. The man smiled faintly at Yuka's miraculous behavior while shaking his head inexhaustibly.
“Ckckck, base girl braggart.”
-00-
Yuka walked slowly on the sidelines while neutralizing her irregular breathing. He was finally able to complete his sentence by running twenty-five times as Haejun had ordered before.
Yuka looked at the dark sky with orange scattering on it with a feeling of sadness and disappointment. Today he failed to complete his sentence quickly, so he could not come to Shinjung's birthday party and eat bulgogi as much as his other friends. Yuka then sat alone on the sidelines lamenting her unlucky fate today. He should have told Haejun the truth if he had not done the exercises. Rather than being humiliated in the presence of his other friends, being honest seemed much better. But how else, it's too late. He had lied to the fierce man and made him have to get extra punishment for his actions that are outrageous.
“Ck, how unlucky is my fate today. If only I hadn't lied to that fierce captain, things wouldn't have turned out like this.” for Yuka to be annoyed at herself. He then kicked softly the small pebbles in front of his feet to channel the annoyance that was entrenched in his heart. At times like this, he misses home.
“I miss appa and eomma.” murmured Yuka slowly with teary eyes. The woman rubbed her rough eyes and looked up at her face so that the tears would not go up in the river. But when he looked up at his face, he was surprised by the appearance of Haejun who had been standing in front of him.
“This drink.”
Haejun threw a bottle of mineral water at Yuka who Yuka immediately replied with a confused look.
“Captain... what are you doing here?”
“You're crying?”
“Ahh, oh no captain. This is nothing.” said Yuka gelagapan. He was about to wipe the tears from his cheek, but Haejun's broad hand suddenly perched on his cheek and wiped the tears gently from his cheek.
“Do I punish you too hard?”
Yuka who was still stunned by Haejun's behavior seemed to not respond to Haejun's words and just fell silent in place like a fool who was opening his mouth wide.
“Nona Im, did I punish you too hard?”
“Tno captain, the punishment is not heavy at all. I just miss home.” Yuka said at last with a feeling of embarrassment. Seeing Yuka who was blushing shyly in front of him made Haejun feel quite anxious towards Yuka and made her subconsciously cast her sweet smile on the woman. Seeing Haejun who was smiling gently in front of him while rubbing his cheeks slowly made Yuka's heart beat twice as fast as usual. Her cheeks that were originally pale, now suddenly look reddish and make Yuka look more beautiful than before.
“It's only natural that you miss home, even your other colleagues do too. Oo yes, I heard today Shinjung is having a bulgogi party at the store in front of the headquarters, do you want to go there?”
The question posed by Haejun made Yuka face again clouded because today she could not attend the party. Though he really wants to be present to drink soju as much so that he can forget all his problems lately.
“To be honest I really want to, but I can't. You gave me a lot of penalties today so I can't come there to join my other colleagues.” Yuka said with glittering eyes to blame Haejun. Sneerly Haejun returned the gaze while folding both his hands in front of his chest. Though he was just about to be a little gentle with Yuka, but since the woman had already dared to challenge him and blame him, he would not reveal that gentle demeanor again to Yuka. He thinks Yuka is inappropriate for that.
“You should thank me for saving you from your male colleagues.”
“You mean?” yuka asked not understanding. In the heart of Yuka sneered at Haejun who actually did the opposite, the man made her unable to enjoy her life well.
“Of course I have saved you, if you are drunk and your male colleagues are also drunk, what will you do after that? What if they rape you when you're unconscious? You are so careless. You should be aware of your status as the only woman in your group.” Haejun said. Yuka rolled her eyes lazily with the man's answer.
What's wrong with drinking with my friends? I think it's better than having to get stuck with him inside this base.
Yuka grumbled inwardly while playing her shoes. The woman did not want to look at Haejun at all and continued to look down until Haejun was embarrassed by the behavior of his students.
“Now you better come with me.” invite Haejun absolutely and sound undeniable. The man drags Yuka's hand to follow her without a care at Yuka's whistle asking her to let go of her hand.
“Captain.. Please stop your steps. Where will you take me?” yuka asked noisily behind Haejun. Disturbed, Haejun finally decided to let go of the hand and slightly stomped it backwards.
“You're so noisy, I just wanted to take you out to eat. Aren't you hungry?” haejun asked half-screaming. Yuka rubbed her aching wrist while grumbling indistinctly with Haejun's attitude.
“I'm not hungry, I want to rest in the room.” reject delicate Yuka. Haejun
absolutely not accepting rejection. As much as possible he would still force Yuka to eat with him. After all, he was sure that Yuka was actually holding back hunger, only that the woman was a little prestige with her invitation.
“No need to lie, I can hear the sound of your stomach shrill.”
Yuka's reflexes immediately hugged her stomach while staring at Haejun not accepting.
“My stomach is not...”.
Haejun quickly put a lollipop into Yuka's mouth for her to stop screaming. After all he was already hungry and tired with the cry of the cramped Yuka. Right now all he wanted was to immediately eat and rest in his comfortable room.
“Kmmpten... Mmpaskannn!! Kmpptennnn!!”
Yuka clamored indistinctly with Haejun's hand which kept pulling her out to a nearby restaurant.
Flashbacks
Lee Haejun stared at the strange face of his wife who was laughing indistinctly next to him. Haejun then reached out his hand to palpate Yuka's forehead while occasionally noticing the traffic in front of her that was dense.
“Yuka, are you okay?”
“Ahh oppa! You ruined my hair, I'm fine.” grumbled Yuka annoyed while removing Haejun's hand from her face. Seeing his screaming wife unclear, Haejun chuckled slightly while still concentrating on his steering wheel.
“Since I've seen you continue to laugh strangely, what's the matter?” ask Haejun curiously. Yuka then remembered the memories of her past with Haejun that allowed her to get to know her husband more closely until they finally decided to get married.
“I'm just remembering our funny past. If you think about it it seems that from the beginning oppa has been interested in me.” Yuka said confidently. Haejun furrowed his brows objecting to Yuka's reply as he actually did not feel that way.
“Confidence once you're Miss Lee. You better get out of the car and start talking about our case today than you keep remembering our weird past.”
Haejun opened his seatbelt quickly and began to refract his appearance before exiting the car. But then he turned around again at Yuka and immediately pulverized Yuka's lips suddenly.
“Oppa!! What the hell are you doing? Oh, my God, my lipstick..” Yuka shouted excitedly when her lipstick looked like a straw to and fro. Haejun looked relaxed and unconcerned.
“I haven't got morning kissku.”
“Oh my goodness, you are a childish one oppa. Look, you're ruining my makeup.” yuka screeched while cleaning up the lipstick stains that were smudging around her face.
“Oppa, also clean your lips, they will see you strange with red lips
lipstick scars like that.” Yuka said while thrusting a piece of tissue at Haejun. But Haejun just ignored the tissue and pulled Yuka's waist closer to him.
“I want you to clean it... with your lips.”.
“Mphh oppa..
Yuka pushed Haejun's body away and immediately tidied up her slightly messy clothes due to Haejun's naughty hands. Quickly Yuka cleaned her lipstick remnants from Haejun's lips and lips as she heard the sound of footsteps approaching their car.
Tok tok tok tok
“Senior Im.”
Sehun knocked on the glass door next to Yuka while smiling sweetly at Yuka. Yuka who saw Sehun standing waiting for him immediately opened the door joyfully regardless of Haejun's darkened facial expression.
“Good morning agent Oh, what are you doing here?” Yuka asked as she observed the surrounding basement that seemed quiet.
“I just came and saw senior Im being with captain Lee, you guys just finished the car smuggling case owned by Kangta Corp?”
“Yes, we just finished it last night, then this morning Captain Lee accompanied me to go to the agency office to take care of my contract as a model.” lies Yuka while glancing at Haejun who is standing not far from where he stands. Sehun who heard it only nodded his head while putting on a slightly dislike face because he actually wanted to replace Haejun as Yuka's assistant from the beginning, but several times Yuka rejects him on the grounds that he does not feel good to Haejun because Haejun since the beginning has helped him to deal with the case of his father's death.
“Then has there been any progress regarding the death case of Mr Im?”
“We are getting closer to the culprit.”
Suddenly Haejun spoke up about the murder case of Mr. Im who was already known by all agents at the headquarters. But his goal in answering Sehun's question was because he was already caught off guard with the man. Since the beginning of joining the Seoul intel team, Sehun has shown a strange reaction if Yuka is nearby. And it was enough to make Haejun sultry and a little anxious with Sehun's annoying behavior.
“Really? You are indeed great captain Lee. Senior Im, let's go inside, I heard today we got a new mission from the commissioner to uncover the case of Kim Sora's death. Has senior Im heard of it?”
“Yes we just got a message from the commissioner, after this captain Lee will lead a meeting to determine which team will be in charge to uncover this case.”
“Then...”.
“Hey you guys hurry up, I don't want my members to be late for the meeting.”
Lee Haejun loudly shouted at Yuka and Sehun who were busy conversing in the basement area, while Haejun was already waiting for them boredly in the elevator that was almost closed.
“Ck, captain Lee is indeed fierce.” grumbled Sehun slowly beside Yuka to make Yuka giggle with the grunts of the handsome man next to her.
“Sstt, you'll make him even more angry if he hears it.”
The two humans quickly entered the elevator while holding back the almost bursting laughter from the two.
