It was mainly just being by her side, day to day, eventually he learned the inside rules of his work like getting the coffee and running papers to different departments. Even with Ahjumma lecturing him every night because he turns off the tracker and communication with her, he continued to rebel. It became more than just finding background information about his dad, in fact, he almost felt like he… Wanted to protect her for some odd reason. Maybe because he was the cause of her misery to begin with. However, with each of their encounters when he was Healer it was interesting, to say the least.

His breath in the chilling by the day air was visible as he was explaining what was the company plans, orders which he was given to send feedback towards his boss. After a small introduction to the plans, he quickly realized she wasn’t paying attention to him at all. As soon as he wanted to speak up, the same scene replayed over and over once again by the none other than kkangpae. “Aish, I got bruises from last week and it’s still there,” he complained, yet it was a complete lie. Before he could even blink, a car was driven up next to them, shoving the female inside with no words this time. They were probably sick of the same game as well. Bongsoo attempted to step in, but in his state of position, he was kicked to the curb but it was his plan after all, to get a tracking device planted underneath the car as he got constantly kicked. “Yujin-ah!” He called out while the men had her tied and blindfolded in the car before speeding off.

He laid in agony for a few seconds until the vehicle was almost out of sight, so he could dust himself off and contact the only person on his side. “Ahjumma, I need you to track the car I put a tracker on,” he demanded, slipping into a hoodless vehicle nearby, connecting his phone to the car’s usb slot. “You disappear on me and expect me to follow you up? Yah, is she really that pretty?” She spoke with a scoff. “WHAT?” He choked on the word while the engine started.  “This clueless jerk,” Ahjumma mumbled toned with clicks of the keyboard. “Heading west,” she informed after.

The quiet chase was long and dragging but the gang of men decided to stop at a warehouse and hauled their victim inside. Of course they had a couple of men watch the entrance while the rest slipped inside but Healer know where his way of entrance was. Sneaking up to the side of the building, he was able to climb up towards a window that was slightly already opened, probably to keep fresh air disperse in the building but the air isn’t the only thing that will enter through that crack. Once he was successfully inside, he crept up to where the voices were, keeping in the shadows as he examined the situation. “Should we cut one finger at a time until she says something?” One of the men suggested with a wicked voice. “Or we can use her for ransom, her for the whole company her father owns,” another made an addition.

“Or leave her alone,” Healer’s voice spun all the eyes towards his direction and in that incident he could only give a taunting look.  Within the second a well known fight between him and the kkangpae members reunited once again. He had to admit, all the constant brawling had put an overwhelming strain to his body but even with his handicapped position, he managed to drop bodies to the floor. His breathing was heavy once the last one fell from the knock out, “Ah… How annoying you guys are…” He exhaled as he began walking towards the female who was roped and veiled. He wasn’t sure of what to say or because he was exhausted he couldn’t bring up another word. Instead, he simply untied the muffler against her mouth, hoping she could break the silence…

      Yujin wasn’t going to lie, lately the kkangpae had really rattled her up. Perhaps she had gotten too cocky in the past, thought that she always had it in the bag when she should have known such certainty would be her biggest weakness. And they took advantage of it well. The last time she was actually successfully abducted by them was the time she had almost died being held for ransom, it was the situation that caused her father to send her abroad to fight back even harder. She had to admit she was losing the fight at the moment, and it didn’t help that she held back her current struggles from her father, not wanting him to become upset over the matter.       Though that aside she didn’t stop trying to get out of the vehicle, attempting to pull her arm away from the muscular man in black beside her, “Let me go, now.” She hissed those words at them, only to receive laughter in return. It was then that she gained enough strength to finally free her arm, elbowing the man who sat next to her in the back of the van harshly. It didn’t take long for her to realize what kind of a wrong move that was, as almost instantly a funny smelling rag was pressed firmly against her nose and soon everything was black...       When Yujin was woken up one could say it wasn’t exactly the most polite way to be greeted after a forced nap. A bucket of water was splashed right at her face, causing her eyelids to flutter open suddenly, coughing and gasping for air that she thought she’d lost. The reactions among the men in the room were a bit too amused as she awoke, one of them stepping closer to try and get her to listen, “You know what we want, this is the only time I’ll ask nicely.” In response a smirk only curved at her lips as her arms sneakily tried to tug free of the bindings to the chair she sat in, with no long she only rolled her eyes, leaning back on the seat with a shrug, “And you should know I’m not telling. Nicely or not.” Her cocky response landed her with a pocket blade being swung at her face, stopping just in time to avoid contact but doing the trick to get her to yell out of shock. “Fuck off!” She yelled louder this time, lifting her foot to kick the man in front of her in the crotch. A bad move, yes, but it was the only one she could think of that would send the enemy to the floor cringing. Almost immediately her legs were binded as well as eyes covered and mouth muffled.       From then she was forced to listen to their plotting while feeling like a damsel in distress yet again. Her pulse was accelerating as her fear got more intense and she tried her best not to show it in her face, not that it could be seen anyway. Much to her advantage it was pleasing for her to hear what voice appeared next, instantly recognizing who the new addition to the small group of people in the room was. The entire time she felt antsy, like there was a pit in her stomach but as soon as the fabric was removed from her mouth she knew the outcome of the situation was a positive one. A relieved sigh left her lips as she leaned back in her seat, eyes squeezed shut under her blind fold out of exhaustion, “Are you going to tell me how you found me this time?”

Glancing down at the female in his arms, he quickly realized the liquid from the ceiling was bothersome so he pulls out one of the aprons from under the counter nearby and umbrellas her with it. Healer made a slight chuckle at the clothing cost statement, “Through that window?” He made a joke while shifting the apron over her head a bit more like he was afraid she could see him. There was so much questions he wanted to ask but he wasn’t sure where to start, but before he could even make up his mind the police sirens outside alarmed him that it was time to go. “I have to go,” he stood up, but a pain shocked throughout his body from his leg injury. Luckily he had caught himself in time onto the counter.

Outside, the police were surrounding the area, armed and closing distance towards the entrance but doing this for years he learned how to evade any sight to be given. Effectively and in a timely manner, he had vanished from all eyes when the officers made way to the female in the sprinkling rain. “M’am, are you alright? Are you hurt?” One of the men asked, quickly attempting to help Yujin to her feet.

      “You know what I meant-” The woman’s eyebrows furrowed together at the center, she would have glared up at him and demanded answers if not for the cloth that covered her face and the fact that on top of that she knew there wan’t much time left. Surely enough, her ears perked up a bit to hear the sound of police sirens blaring outside the shop, as usual the cops were late but that was none of her concern most of the time. Just as she noticed the man letting her go and readying to leave she pulled the apron off her head  only catching a glimpse just in time for him to slip away, “Creep...”       With a sigh she leaned her back against the counter once hearing the doors open eyes looking up at the men in uniform as the rushed in front of her, aiding her to her feet again. “They only bruised my arm, I’m fine,” Yujin answered plainly, glancing to the back of the shop again to possibly catch a glimpse of the stranger again but of course he was long gone. “Is there anyone else in here that didn’t flee yet, ma’am?” The police questioned further, but of course she knew better than to answer honestly, only shaking her head with a simple response, “No...”       The rest of her day continued on in the police station, answering questions and giving statements that were vague and hardly the truth. By the time she finally made it home the first thing she did was shower, change her clothes and make some tea. Now days turned into weeks and then months had followed and it was already on the verge of becoming December. Several more confrontations had happened, each one more and more progressively close to danger and yet somehow that dude found a way to snatch her up from danger every time. It was infuriating for her, months down the lane and she was still no closer to answers, regarding the usb or Healer. That creep was a person she’d grown used to, in a way she sort of started to rely on his protection, feeling a bit safer knowing that he somehow had this watch over her. One would even say, if one would even know, that the two had even gotten a bit too friendly these days. Chit chatting and bickering flirtatiously, to the point where she sometimes forgot he was the reason she was in this mess in the first place.       Now she was walking down the city streets of Seoul talking business with her secretary, Bongsoo, late at night, cold air reddening her cheeks while the only warmth outside of her outerwear was provided by the hot cup of coffee in her hand. She didn’t even know what he was saying to her, it was all going in one ear and out of the other. There was a lot on her mind, at this point she began debating whether or not the enemy had an enemy source and the past week her company was turned upside down in the midst of an internal investigation.       At first, the sounds of crumpling leaves behind her was brushed off as just her being paranoid. She had gotten careless and tired enough to the point where she knew with security or not the Kkangpae would come. And that they did, a yank of her arm  being given only to have her widen her eyes and instinctively toss her cup of coffee onto the stranger’s face as she was surrounded by thugs, yet again, “Don’t you idiots ever give up?”

Never witnessing a man who was almost twice the size of a woman get a beaten to the face was almost amusing but scary at the same time. The very scene unfolding in front of him was entertaining, if he wasn’t playing a role then he would have probably added a few punches in as well. Allowing her to drag him towards the exit of the building but froze when hearing a gunshot from behind them. It was a complete miss on both of them but it was right above the female next to him. “Take another step and I shoot the employee,” the leader groaned after standing up, his gun pointing towards them.

“Please spare me, I just got a raise,” Bongsoo complained only getting a ‘Shut up’ in response. The man next to Bongsoo also pulled out a handgun, shoving it against his side causing the newly made secretary to flinch. “And I’ll make sure it doesn’t miss,” the minion stated. “Tie the scared little shit somewhere, lets have a nice chat, Yujin-ssi… Hopefully your make up artist can cover scars,” the man ordered while the man beside Bongsoo grabbed him, dragging him towards the back of the cafe.

While being dragged away, Bongsoo looks at his boss with fearful eyes before he was left alone with the other male. “Ah, you guys are stupid…” Bongsoo smirked as the man was in the middle of tying his wrists. “What?” The kkangpae member questioned, without an answer, Bongsoo collided heads with the other, knocking the fellow out. “Tch, tie me up?” Brushing his top to fix the wrinkles, his next target location. “My turn to teach these guys a lesson,” his grin slightly grew wider to the thought of the idea. He always kept his night work clothes with him in his briefcase, backpack, in case of events like these. Switching in a hurry, the Healer paced to the exit from the back of the cafe, finding a section he could scan the interior.

In almost every direction around the female had a trigger pointing towards her but he also calculated every object inside as well as noticing the sprinklers up ahead. He used the time while they were focused on their object to crash through the glass window, charging the attention towards him. “Hey, it’s been a while,” he smirked at one of the men which had the first gunpoint towards the new threat. Just as the gun sparked, Healer kicked a piece of broken glass against his arm, leading the projectile towards the ceiling. breaking one of the light bulbs to set off the water sprinklers. “Grab the girl!” The men scurried around the rain environment in attempt to take the hostage but instead Healer was quick on his feet, pulling Yujin with him behind the counter, her head tucked into the bridge of his neck.

“Run,” he whispered to the woman who had placed the coffee order; and without hesitation she rushed through the men in uniforms scattering to find their prey. “GET HER!” One of the men mistakes the woman to be Yujin but it was enough to clear the cafe which was in disaster. Healer leans back after the chaos sung into silence, looking down at the woman in his arms. For his identity sake, he held her head so it would tilt slightly downwards. “…You okay?”

      Yujin felt herself running out of patience, like she was about to freak out on all of them but she was caught in her tracks as she noticed the gun pointed right at Bongsoo’s side. She had to admit that it was smart of them to point the gun at her secretary rather than herself, maybe after so many encounters they finally learned that she was more than capable of disarming a threat. Bongsoo on the other hand- well, he seemed much less capable. Her eyes carefully scanned the situation around her as they drug her newest employee away, it seemed that the Kkangpae was onto her and her sense of security. The public eye didn’t scare them anymore, which had scared her instead, “You’re that desperate for the pass code? What are you idiots planning to do with that thing anyway?”       “That’s none of your concern right now, you will find out soon enough,” The leader of the band of thugs spoke with a smirk on his face, his fingers lightly prodding at the bruise forming over his eye. He unlocked the safety of his gun, aiming the pistol straight at her, not even concerned over the fact that the workers of the cafe were still behind the counter, “Give me the code, Yujin.” All formalities had been dropped, and so her eyes were rolled despite how rattled she actually was at the moment, she wanted to fight back but in the end she knew that no matter how good she was she couldn’t handle this many guns at once. “Over my dead body, which doesn’t really work for you, now does it?” A smirk dared to tug at the corners of her lips, her head tipping to the side as she knew that in the end her biggest shield from the Kkangpae was the knowledge that they wanted from her. If they killed her, they’d be clueless. Really, all they could do was try and intimidate her.       They were worse than usual, really stepping up their game now that they had the usb and frankly, for once she wasn’t totally prepared for it. Perhaps she made a mistake in not taking them so seriously and focusing herself on finding out who this Healer person was a bit too much. “Who said anything about killing you?” The man spoke again, and that was the last thing she heard him say before the sound of shattered glass startled them all only to be followed by that mysterious voice sounded again, her eyes snapping in that direction to see Healer present again. It all happened in front of her so fast, the gun shots followed by the pouring down water and her being swept away, “Yah! Where the hell did you even come from?”

      Of course her question never got answered, yet again but then there was a lot going on. Even her heart was racing through out the whole process, to the point where she couldn’t even focus on everything at once. But in the end she knew that somehow she wound up sheltered behind the counter with Healer while being tucked into his arms. The new silence found within the cafe was only to be interrupted by Healer’s voice, and for some strange reason she chose not to jump away from him. “Confused... and soaked-” Yujin breathed out as she shifted slightly, her nose wrinkling up as she realized the water was still spraying down on her for the sprinklers, “Since you helped me out, I won’t nag you about how much these clothes cost me. But how did you get here?”

It was an intense moment and felt like time completely stopped as he hoped the worker on the other end will magically come up with the correct order. An order placed from behind saved the pathetic looking male, allowing him to breath once again. The male chuckled nervously to the procedure given but without any other chance to reply, a man’s voice called from the entrance of the shop. “It’s not like you to not have any bodyguards, Yujin-ssi.” The familiar voice. Bongsoo glances over at the wide glass windows, noticing a different male but with the same uniform on. Damn, I should have expected a backup after the other guy noticed me. A few members scattered next to the man from last night, evacuating the citizens within except the two and the workers behind the counters who crouched for their lives.

“We’re simple. We just want the code to unlock the usb,” he lifts an arm, a gesture of wanting something. The men surrounded the door while the leader was rapidly closing distance between himself and the female next to him who didn’t give a sign of fear. Bongsoo interrupted his walk by going in between, “Ah, e-e-excuse me, you need to make an appointment if you want to talk to her,” he smiled nervously at the commanding member. But in his dismay, all he received was a laugh, “What? Are you her secretary? He’s funny,” the man twists his torso to notify the other men in the background in which some chuckled. “… I.. I wasn’t joki–” The man who faked himself as fragile was pushed aside with no concern. The kkangpae male grabbed the female’s cheeks with one of his hand, “Passcode,” he demanded.

      Yet another annoyed sigh passed through the actress’s mouth as she recognized the voice that sounded behind her almost instantly. That guy and her had crossed paths so many times that rather than being scared of him she had become somewhat cocky about the fact that he’s never been able to defeat her. Her words now were always laced with a hint of mockery rather than actual fear. In her mind, she was always the one that brought the gun to the knife fight and he was just always too slow to catch up. Though, as seriously as she didn’t take the  enemy, it was kind of amusing to see Bongsoo stand up for her.. or at least try to. The lady at the counter must have thought she was insane as she was unable to stop herself from smiling out of amusement at it. That was until it was quickly replaced with a frown to notice he’d been pushed.        She was prepared to turn around and snap at the other guy when she was forcefully grabbed. Usually Yujin was not one to sink to violence in public but she hadn’t been given much of a choice, within seconds her knee met the man’s groin followed by a punch to the face. Following that she had him pushed to the ground, a threatening glance being made at the other’s who dared to twitch like they would approach her next, "My day has hardly started yet, couldn’t you have at least waited to annoy me until my coffee was made?”

      “We’re in a public place, guards or not I’ve got eyes everywhere. They’re called the paparazzi,” She spoke easily,it was quite obvious that the girl put on a rather invincible front. Often times she thought of herself as undefeatable because of the fact that she had so many assets to support her. “If you want the pass code you’ll have to get more creative than that. Now that I’ve given your ring leader a black eye, can I leave?” Her question was just as nonchalant as her statement was, as though she couldn’t bother to pretend to be intimidated. Though the usb was still gone, and that seriously had her riled up even though she put on such a focused front. Yujin knew the only reason she didn’t retaliate was thanks to the fact that they were out in public and her only defense mechanism was herself and Bongsoo who was no help at all.       In a single swift movement she grabbed hold of Bongsoo’s wrist and pulled him back into place before leading him back towards the door of the cafe, shoving her way through the group of men who for some reason made no move to stop her. Just as she was about to exit the building she looked over her shoulder again to shoot the thugs a glare, “And also, I suggest you leave my employees out of it, lay your hands on him again and you’ll regret it.”

An exhale breathed against his lips as he followed her out of the elevator and into the lobby where he was given a large manual. “..Ye.. Yes? This.. This whole thing?” He flipped through the first few pages finding fine print words lettered on every page. “I don’t think this job is for me–” The guards’ eyes met his, directing his change of decision in an instant. “Coffee… Got it,” Bongsoo mumbled, twisting his head away from the guards. It was because of that he caught a glimpse of a man across the street hovering his phone towards the building.

“Yes! I’ll get your coffee. Wait here. Decaf, right?” Bongsoo twisted his way through the rotating doors, pulling his earpiece out of his pocket and placing it into his ear. “Ahjumma, pick up,” he demanded, watching the crowds, keeping the man in his sight. “What!? Where are you, you crazy jerk! You turned off your location. Anyway, the reason I couldn’t get back to you is because your teacher called,” she informed, making him halt. That damn perverted bastard. “Never mind, we’ll talk about that later, I turned on my location, can you hack the CCTV on the right corner?” He faced the device near the unknown man who was about to enter a car driving up. “Yes, that does look like one of kkangpae’s members,” she noted by the way he was dressed. “Doesn’t look like there’s danger now, Healer, what are you plan–” Tearing off the equipment in his ear, he lost his way to find a pathway to kkangpae irritated him but even then, how would he infiltrate single-handed? His arms hid his face in agitation, unknowing what’s his next step further without being killed. His impatient and reckless nature could also kill him.

The smell of coffee from the nearby cafe reminded him of his task as newly secretary. “Aish,” he walks inside to purchase the beverage at the front counter, but as usual he looked misplaced. “One… Uh… No decaf,” he stated, “One regular? What size?” The lady asks, leading him to a dumbfound situation.

      The sudden sense of urgency that she noticed with the man had her a bit caught off guard, it seemed when the person wasn’t acting awkward he was being suspicious instead. For a moment she thought nothing of it, but as soon as she heard him call out ‘no decaf’ she had her eyes widened. “Yah, no I-” She began after him but he was already out of the door and headed down the street having her heave out a heavy sigh. Really, Yujin was tying so hard to have patience for the day, and here she was hardly two hours into it and already muttering curses under her breath, “I have the worst damn luck with secretaries.”       To her right hand side she could hear a low chuckle coming from the security guard who handed her jacket, diligently positioned to watch over the front door, “No offense, Yujin-ssi. But  where did you even get him from?” The question she was asked only prompted another sigh while she slid her jacket over her shoulders, “He kind of just came to me, might as well make use of it.” She didn’t give much more explanation than that, the only people who even knew she was slightly questioning Park Bongsoo were her most trusted selection of employees. Really, she couldn’t risk anything at this point.        After a moment she stepped outside to be immediately greeted by the cool November air, she took as best of a guess as she could as to which direction he traveled in. Though she gave him the benefit of the doubt and headed for the cafe, she would admit she was a bit surprised to actually find him in the right place. She had to take a moment to gather herself before approaching him, rescuing him, and herself really, from placing a disastrous order, “He means a grande mocha late, not too hot.”

      She handed the barista the money and just as she turned around she looked at Bongsoo with raised eyebrows, practically demanding answers without even letting the words out just yet, “Before you run away all of a sudden for whatever reason, make sure you get the proper order first.”

The tension lightened up by the sound of her laughter, she didn’t seem so strict after all but maybe it was because of his fake personality she had gone easier on him. He kept up with the directions of the other, looking around his surroundings as well, a way to remember his way back. Usually if he was lost,  the best way out was through the window… Generally how he entered and exited the building in the first place but in this case, doing that wouldn’t work.

Blinking between every glance he given towards the female that accompanied him inside the elevator almost seem threatening with the way she looked at him. His body had aligned perfectly against the elevator corner, if it were made of soft material, he would have probably have his figure printed within. “What… Kind of orders?” The question that slipped forced him to press himself against the walls further of the elevator if it was possible, shocking a reaction against his leg which forced him to limp forward but he caught himself. “So-sorry, elevators makes me nervous.”

      Just as soon as Yujin would think that the man in the elevator couldn’t get anymore socially awkward he would impress her by doing just that. It would be a long day, and she intended to drag him along with her as it carried on. So, it seemed his cowering in a corner would be something she would have to get used to, or at least something she would have to put effort in attempting to change. Really, she felt like she was being accompanied along her day’s tasks by a television character. “There’s not really a specific kind, whatever help I would need at the time I suppose,” Yujin shrugged as her eyes landed on him yet again, just in time to see his leg threaten to give out underneath of him.       She was an impulsive person, and she felt so tempted to ask him what that was all about,  but instead she bit back, only nodding her head with a raised eyebrow, “I see. It seems a lot makes you nervous.” Not much longer after she said that the elevator doors had opened again, and with that she regained her posture to step out of the enclosed space. Her heels had clicked against the marble floors of the lobby while she made her way to the front desk, requesting some paperwork she had left there earlier only to turn around and hand them to Bongsoo who was following her. “This is for you, company information that you’ll need to know. Study it, if you don’t we’ll know,” She said that last part with a small smile curving over her lips, accepting her coat from the security guard by the doors with a nod of thanks, “Now... I need actual coffee.”

His eyes were still trying to adjust to the brightness that greeted him the morning, however it didn’t last because he fell asleep at the desk he was given to do his work. Ahjumma never answered from last night and it was hopeless to try to get a communication from her for any suggestions on his next task. Instead, he found his place on the chair in the working environment. Whether or not she wanted him to find the answers about his father, he was ready to take the plan into action anyways. A man woke him from his slumber not too long after, “Bongsoo-ssi, the miss wants to talk to you,” causing him to fall over quickly.

Half-asleep, the intern entered the office just as she demanded the business man away and fired at that. Wow, she’s harsh… He almost felt bad for the employee but there was nothing in his power he could do to change that. Instead, he wondered why he was sent here to begin with. Bongsoo greeted the female with a slight bow and an awkward smile once she gave her attention towards him. “Ah… Yeah… O-once I woke up from being knocked out, everyone was gone but I ran from being so scared without checking up on you… I’m sorry,” he lied.

“EH?” He coughed out after listening to the promotion he just received, “Wh-wh-why me? Ah, can’t you get the other–” He pointed towards the bodies of busy workers outside but they didn’t even seem to want to glance over at the direction. Mainly from the fear of the actress? He concluded that in order to get any progression to finding out answers, he has to start somewhere and this girl seems to be like the only key to gaining any access to kkangpae. “I.. I’ll try my best, but I don’t know decaf from whatever other drinks,” he replied with a sorrow expression.

      “My other workers are experienced in other ways, they’re not of much use as a secretary,” She responded simply while moving towards the elevator, gesturing with her finger to follow behind her. As she pressed the call button for the elevator she glanced over at him again, laughing a bit at his last response. She couldn’t lie that the man’s awkward personality was amusing, he almost reminded her of a lost puppy. “First things first, you’ll need to learn the difference. And we have errands to run anyway,” With saying just that the elevator dinged open with perfect timing, the doors sliding open before them and allowing her to step inside of the familiar space.

      As soon as she noticed him follow her in she pressed the button for the lobby, as she leaned against the wall her eyes landed on him once again. Her father would probably kill her if he found out she hired such a suspicious person to assist her through company matters as basically her personal assistant. But then, often times she disagreed with her father as well and in the end Yujin knew exactly what she was doing. “This company is good to you as long as you do your job, fortunately for you your job isn’t that hard,” She began while her eyes stayed focused on him, “As long as you can take orders well, that is.”

The nearby rummage alerted the injured man, urging him to stand up even if it conflicted pain. When his back was turned towards the female who asked nothing more but her usb, he simply answered, “Not here, they have it,” without more interrogation, he stepped onto the step of the balcony. “Next time, don’t just carelessly go to someone without knowing anything about them,”  he picked up a pebble nearby, calculating the circumference to determine the exact area where it will hit when he throws it at her which was the hand that held the gun.

The thud of the gun against the concrete simply allowed him to give off a soft chuckle before jumping off from the balcony, rolling onto the ground’s level once he reached it. The pain of his leg stung as an after effect from the dive but it didn’t stop him from hopping a fence nearby to attempt a getaway. If he even shows a small amount of his face to the woman, it can lead to no answers, possibly even a call out to the mission.

      Ironically, Yujin had slept really soundly that night. Not because she was relieved, or felt like any of this was over but because she was exhausted, all of her energy had been completely spent. She knew that the next day would be time to recover, now that she had a least some sort of an understanding of the situation. And if there is one thing Yujin was good at, it was problem solving. As she walked into her office she sat in her desk with a sigh, lifting the coffee cup that was waiting for her before she noticed the doors opening before her. “Good morning. Should I send the intern in now?”       "Yeah, send him in,” Was all she responded with as her eyes scanned over the paperwork that was left on her desk, taking a sip or two of the coffee just as she heard her secretary call Bongsoo into the room. Again she grimaced after swallowing the liquid down, extending her arm out to her long time employee with eyes still trained on her work, “Take this away, it’s decaf again. After that go home, you’re fired.” As soon as the cup was taken from her and the secretary left the room she couldn’t see his reaction as she wasn’t even paying much attention, her mind was obviously set on other things. She leaned back in her chair, arms folded over her chest as she looked over at the intern in front of her for a moment before speaking, “I see you made it home safely after last night?”       Her approach now seemed much less cold, though she still meant business she was interested in answers as well. Both Healer and Bongsoo sparked the need for many of those, and she knew very well that being crude would not earn her anyway. “I should apologize, working closely to me- sometimes that happens, but you’re safe. Will give you a raise and a promotion for your troubles,” Standing up from her spot she approached him with a somewhat sincere smile, handing him a new identification card to replace the one that was only yet a day old, “You’ll be my new secretary, think that you can handle it?”

Using the time everyone was distracted with one thing or another, Healer rolled into the background silently, brushing off dust from his shirt from laying upon the ground. “Those men.. Are the Kkangpae,” he huffed, hoping the old woman was still on the communication but no response was received. “Aish, this woman, this is no time for a break,” the man complained, taking out his work clothes from his backpack and switched to it. He secured the hat in place on top of his head, the rims of his shades rested upon his face.

“Okay,” he climbed the walls of the building through different techniques and using advantages of the building’s structure. He spotted a light coming from the inside of a vehicle, giving him vision of what occurrences was going on underneath. Without hesitation, he jumped from his position, knocking down a few of the men including the one armed while fighting off one that tried to interfere. The attention the men converted from the female to the mysterious man. “Healer,” the one who seemed to like to talk the most, smirked upon his appearance.

“Taking advantage of a woman? Isn’t that even low for you, scums? How will this look like when the news hears about it?” He scoffs, moving back just enough to evade a punch from one of the guys on the side. “Practice your aim,” he mocked which ignited a combat area between him and the gang. While many had fell to the floor, there were some that continued using their stamina hoping to get in one punch. The fight seemed like a lifetime within the minute but it was that very minute after a gunshot broke the intense quarrel.

It barely hit him but enough to scrape the skin against his legs, causing him to stumble forward. He thought it was going to be the end but the pet bulls arrived behind him in time to give terror to the beaten Kkangpae, forcing them to evacuate the lot. Including Healer as well, blending into the environment, climbing the floors of the building once again to flee. “Yujin-ssi! Are you alright?” One of her guards ran towards her hurriedly. Healer found a shady area on the fourth floor, holding onto his bleeding leg, he sighed, “Ahjumma.. I don’t think I can finish off this task, I can’t work for the same bastards who…” he trailed, with or without a response he had to send the information.

      Yujin’s eyes had widened upon seeing the masked figure appear from what seemed like thin air. She wasn’t sure whether she should feel threatened or relieved that he was fighting off her competition, in the end it only left her feeling confused. Why would he, or healer as he’s called, steal for them and turn around against them in the end. She knew she had to let him handle this, she wouldn’t get any answers if she wound up kidnapped. Though just because Healer arrived and began taking care of the situation it didn’t stop the others from coming at her.       In this new situation she was much more capable of handling herself, throwing some hits as needed when the focus of the enemies was returned to her. Soon enough her band of guards came running back to her, having her glaring at them as though she was about to tear them a new one. And just as she had paused to catch her breath everyone was running away, including her unlikely hero. The series of concerned questions that the other men sent her way were ignored, an annoyed tone clear in her voice as she started walking forward with them trailing behind, “Where the fuck were you? And quit standing around go chance after them now!”       Her nerves were definitely on high wire, she had her heart beating a million beats a second and even more questions screaming at her from her thoughts. She watched the pet bulls run forward, having her pull her cell phone from her pocket and dial the same number that she had last night, “It’s me. The kkangpae attacked, tried to kidnap me. Send out more men to chase them down, I am tied up with something else at the moment.”       With her gun back in her hand she went the opposite direction of her guards, headed up in search of the stranger again. Given the circumstances most people might think it wasn’t the wisest of choices but she didn’t care much. She was rather desperate to get the usb back, reckless in her efforts to do so really. Besides, she knew that if shef she wanted something done right it was to be done herself. And surely enough she heard rustling upon reaching the darkness of the fourth level, readying her gun but still only aiming it at the ground, “Hey, creep. Where is my usb?”

“Ye-Yes… Boss,” he simply responded while looking away from the female as well as hiding his wound. The attitude of the other was annoyingly cold, if it weren’t for his father’s case he would have turned around from the building in the beginning. There were always more jobs that were safer, not revealing his face also not having to deal with another woman. If Ahjumma wasn’t already a daily chore to handle.

For the rest of the day he followed the orders like he was supposed to, unfortunately the majority of the time he had to stick by the “boss”. The other times he found ways to use the “bathroom” excuse, probably more than he should to complain to the old woman who hears every conversation that was going on. It was a fact, he was not used to office work. The time of the day he was finally waiting for arrived, the moonlight greeted the earth’s surface and he finally got fresh air when they reached the parking lot. Even the time being, the woman had her body guards around her, watching him like he was a threat. Which he was. Bongsoo nervously waved at her as a good bye greeting but as soon as he twisted towards the direction of his vehicle, a group of men was closing distance. “A-a-a-are these your men?” His back touched one of the guard’s body, making him hop forward, giving a face of apology to the other.

“Yujin-ssi. With your pet bulls as always I see,” one of the men spoke, the “pet bulls” they called got in a protective stance around the woman. “Wh-what about me?” Bongsoo whispered to one, faking a fearful shiver but they ignored him. “We just need you to unlock the damn thing you kindly gave us. Is Healer anywhere nearby? The Kkangpae hired him to lure you to them.. Oh wait, that’s us, isn’t it?” The name made the male twist his head and opened his eyes widely towards the man. The name that caused his family misfortune for many years… The name that caused his father death.

“He’s not here? I guess we’ll just take you,” the man’s laugh gave off an evil impression making Bongsoo’s hands clenched into a fist, “Don’t,” Ahjumma warned. The ‘pet bulls’ and the mob of Kkangpae clashed against one another causing a warzone. One man targeted the errand boy but he didn’t give much of a fight, falling to the floor in a single hit. “Ow! It hurts!” He groaned, laying and grasping onto his stomach where the collide happened. He was soon ignored, drowned out of the fighting but with one eye opened to keep himself inside the loop, he witnessed Yujin escaping the battlefield but she wasn’t alone…

      Everything that the stranger had done all day only confused her, having her grow both more curious and suspicious of him all at once. But she ignored the urge to bombard him with questions successfully somehow, and so she was feeling no less relieved as she left the building later that night. She knew that now that the sun was down for the day as well there was no time to let her guard down, an incident was going to have to happen sooner or later. Most especially after the damage her workers caused to the Kkangpae in retaliation earlier that day. She had basically baited them out, so it came as no surprise to her that they were flooding the almost completely desolate parking lot besides the building waiting for her to leave, “No, they’re not mine.”

      These thugs always made her want to scoff, countless times they tried to take her on and countless times they were always beaten down by thugs of her own. The Kkangpae liked to think that because they were in Seoul first that they had the most influence, but if there was anything Yujin knew it’s that when it came to criminals the loyalty was were the money was. And that was with her, they never seemed to like that very much. She never bothered to even respond to them more than half of the time they crossed paths, finding that verbally engaging with them was only a conflict of interest. Instead she made eye contact with one of the guards beside her head gesturing towards the other men gathered outside with a simple, “Go” as if she was talking to her actual dogs.       Her head snapped in the direction of Bongsoo as she had heard him yelp out, the normal part of her felt guilty and like she should have had someone run to protect him. But if he was involved, and he was who she had thought he was he was more than capable of defending himself. And if he wasn’t, then they would leave them alone, which is what they ended up doing and keeping their focus on her instead. Doing what she had thought was the only thing she could do in the moment she fled the area, getting to a place where she felt she could better defend herself and not risk the eye of the public. Soon enough she wound up in the parking garage behind the building and right by her vehicle. With no time to lose she swung open the passenger side door and pulled out a pistol aiming it straight for their faces, “Don’t move.”       Perhaps she hadn’t made the best move in running off on her own, and where most of her security guards went she had no clue. But she was surrounded, and of course the thugs had paid no attention to her, the main one chuckling lowly as he stepped forward, releasing a simple command of his own, “Get her.” That was all she heard before one of them grabbed her arm harshly, disarming her and leaving her with no other option but to drive her knee into his groin. She had to admit she was a bit scared, even after practicing martial arts for most of her life there was no way she was capable of taking on so many men at once by herself, but she had surely tried.

Healer watched the woman get frustrated over the next few timeframe and he had to admit it was entertaining in a way. But when her eyes trailed over to him, his figure straighten, giving off a nervous vibe, unknowing how to answer the question she directed at him. “At least try to act professionally, you dog poop,” Ahjumma lectured as he attempted to hold all of the files in his arms. 

 After the demand spoken from the actress as she strolled ahead of him, he only gave a blank face. He was not used to office work, let alone being ordered around like a pet. “Remember just say yes to orders and if someone hits you, don’t hit back,” the old woman on the other end of the reception said. “Aish, ye-yes,” he called out, catching up to the stern female. Keeping a close distance behind, he blinked several times before answering, “My name? Ah, Park.. Park Bongsoo. You’re Yujin-ssi, right? That actress? Wow, you’re–”

“Yah, you’re not here looking for a date,” Ahjumma warned, forcing him to cut his sentence while wiping the back of his neck with his free arm. After clearing his throat, the elevator doors slid open, “Uh, yeah,” Bongsoo allowed the woman slip inside first. If he could, he would take the earpiece off to avoid anymore ‘valuable’ instructions. In reality, he never paid much attention to humans, whether they looked like perfection or not, none of that really matters to him. Rarely anything mattered to him.

      “Bongsoo?" She repeated the name again to make sure she had heard correctly, giving a single firm nod as she spoke. “Yes. That would be me, but right now I’m your boss,” Yujin continued, being very clear to remind him of that last part. Countless times she had been forced to put employee after employee in their place because they had put their sense of professionalism aside because of her fame. In her mind, there was way too much to be done for her to put business aside even for one moment to act famous in the work place. And that’s exactly why she made no attempt to question him on his unfinished sentence, though she couldn’t lie a part of her remained a bit curious as to exactly what he was going to say.

      As the elevator doors opened before them she took a step into the closed quarters while taking a sip from her cup of coffee, her nose scrunching up in distaste as she swallowed some of it. “I told them I hate decaf ten times...” She mumbled to herself out loud as her eyes skeptically eyed the paper cup in her hand. Though quickly she regained herself, clearing her throat and pressing the button for the first floor before her eyes gestured towards the bandages on his hand again, “You said that you fell off the bus?”

The other’s cold nature caught him off guard, letting him stagger for a second or two before responding, “Eh? I.. I was hoping you would tell me…” The way she gazed at him made him think she was suspicious, but that was given because just last night he had stolen a valuable equipment. If it linked to the company Ahjumma mentioned it was surely life or death material. The atmosphere within the office felt tense and suffocating so he tried to think of a way to break it but he wasn’t used to face to face meetings let alone interactions. “Yo-You look like you’ve been up all night,” he noticed the rings around the bottom of her eyelids.

“This girl seems like serious business, don’t let her get through your skin or we’re calling this mission off,” Ahjumma spoke softly through the ear device. The man who identified himself as “Bongsoo” simply smiled awkwardly at the female. He knew he couldn’t afford abandoning this operation, not when it could possibly get him closer to explanations.

      “...You don’t know? How is that even possible?” Yujin let her brows furrow for a moment before letting out another sigh in reaction to the answer he gave her. Golden Empire was a company that had a very strict requirements upon entering, even for an intern. Throughout her time running the business she never once met an intern so scattered to the point that they had no clue which department they would even be positioned in. In most cases, and on most days, the heiress would put more effort into hiding her frustration especially around strangers. But she couldn’t help herself from letting her thumb and index finger raise to pinch the bridge of her nose. For a moment, she felt the urge to explode a million accusations his way, every feeling in her gut pointing at him like blinking arrows. But, fortunately she was smarter than that and instead fell into a role as if she was on set.        Her lips pursed together for a moment before she dropped her fingers, her eyes landing on his before she made her way back to the desk, “That’s because I was. This company expects a lot out of it’s workers, everyone here has an important job to get done. Intern or not, you will be held to those expectations now too.” In a swift movement she picked up some files from the cleanly work station, handing them over to him in order to free her hands so she could lift her coffee instead. “So, pay close attention and follow me,” Her tone was still firm but carried much less hints towards her irritation at the same time, knowing that if she intended to investigate the man she should not try and scare him away. Following her statement she immediately turned on her heel and passed through the double doors that opened into her office to enter the lobby, headed straight for the elevator, “First thing's first, you need an identification card. What’s your name again?”

“Healer, you okay?” His hacker partner questioned as he gripped onto his bleeding arm while his silhouette blended into the night’s darkness. “Warn me next time when there’s animals involved,” the male responded while looking at the usb he retrieved. This was the life he lived, doing tasks for idiots above him only because he wanted to save enough money for an island to live alone on. Him and the sound of water with no one bothering him. That was the dream he had since about ten years ago, the year when everyone left him.

The male crashed onto the couch in the comfort of his own home while he attempted to wrap a piece of cloth around his arm but in dismay he gave up not too soon after. He was never really good at bandaging himself since he rarely ever got hurt during his work. Grabbing the can of alcohol that was set on the table in front of him, he used the time that was passing by in silence. Often he drinks after finishing up an errand and lets the sun tuck him to sleep.

But it wasn’t like how it’s usually played out, not for a person who’s not awake when the country is. He somehow found himself awake with the sun, dressed in a business attire and standing outside an entertainment company’s door. “Can you… Repeat this plan again? You want me to undercover here to spy as an assistant manager intern? Because our client could find good use for her? I think you’re getting crazier everyday, ahjumma,” pinching his forehead, he couldn’t accept the fact of the ridiculous method. “Ever heard of the ‘Golden Empire’?” The title struck a part of his brain, “The ones who killed my father?” It took him a bit of energy to restrain the anger from remembering the history. “If this has something to do–” His sentence got cut off, “It does, although we don’t know what it is,” Ahjumma answered.

For a long time, he had many unanswered questions towards his past, like why did his father do such things to people but it came to a point he stopped caring. His mother couldn’t look at him anymore after his father was guilty of murder and being killed by that company. His teacher who taught him martial arts, too, had left him, to find answers but never to return. From what he understood was that his father was tracking some gang named Kkangpae, it was the reason his mother and him lived a sheltered life, afraid that they’ll be a target as blackmail against his father; but his father ended up as an agent for the Kkangpae instead, who was ordered to kill a mother and a child. Even the pure thoughts of the occurrence from a long time ago stirred him up, it was because of that it changed his entire life.

“Then lets find out,” upon walking inside after a few notes and lectures of the old woman through his earpiece, he was suddenly grabbed by the arm and dragged towards a familiar woman, “Ah, here’s our new intern we were talking about Yujin-ssi. Park Bong Sook?” The man questioned. “B-b-bongsoo… And you’re hurting my arm…” An apology was given and the grip from his arm loosened subsequently allowing the spy to repossess his injured arm. “I… I fell when I was getting off the bus,” he explained, bowing to the female. “If you don’t mind showing him around and explain the basics. I have a meeting to attend,” the male excused himself from the room.

      Following the occurrences of the previous night, Yujin had not stopped moving as with desperate times came desperate measures. She couldn’t lie that the loss of the data was a huge threat to her company, and she would be forced to pull any and all strings possible in order to cover not only herself but all Golden Empire assets in general. If one sank, then they would all sink so it became her mission to make sure every single bit of it stayed afloat and stronger than ever. From the moment that figure fled her home she was dressed and on her way, escorted of course, to the tall building she was currently sitting in on the highest floor. The walls of her large office felt ironically claustrophobic as she had her phone pressed to her ear, a scowl plastered on her face and a sigh passing through her lips to express her obvious displeasure with the days events, “How is it possible that there is no footage of him, at all?”       "I’m sorry, Yujin-Ssi. From the looks of it, he isn’t part of the Kkangpae but he isn’t working alone either. He has a hacker on his side,” The voice sounded sheepishly from the other line, the man seeming to be very aware of the fact that she was not in the best mood and probably taking it out on him as always. “I’m about as unimpressed with him as I am with my staff’s inability to properly monitor the security cameras that help keep the woman who signs their pay checks alive. I suggest you tell me something helpful right now unless you one to join the likes of them,” On an average day outside of work, Yujin was nowhere near this cut throat. In fact she was actually almost always quite pleasant for a woman who let crime be a major part of her everyday life. But with desperate times such as these, it always comes down to reminding everybody just how serious she could be when it was called for- especially when on the clock. She was on guard for sure, expecting another visit from him once the Kkangpae realized that they needed her in order to actually access the files on the usb. At any moment really she could be involved in another attempted kidnapping for all she knew.  A momentary pause was taken before the other voice continued reluctantly though it pushed through anyway, “There is one thing... This isn’t the first time someone was victimized by a disguised stranger doing someone else’s dirty work. The healer or something, he’s apparently been around for a while- unfortunately it’s a complete dead end, the dude doesn’t exist most of the people who hear of him assume he’s just a myth.”

    “Myth or not, I’m getting my usb back. Get in contact with our insiders and offer them the largest amount of money they can think of to cause some damage to the Kkangpae in retaliation. As for this masked idiot...” Towards the end of her response her voice got lower, her eyes landing on the pair of people who entered her office- or the bandage on the hand of one of them to be more specific, “He’ll be back.”       She had to admit after hanging up her phone she paid no attention at all to the words her secretary was spouting out at her, only actually focusing on the new intern standing next to him. “I suppose that I have to do everything myself then...” As soon as the other left the room she stood from her desk to approach the stranger, getting the feeling in her gut that she’d had an encounter with him rather recently. “What department are you supposed to be training in?" Her tone was soft but yet also rather cold, making it obvious that her walls were thicker than ever and at this point she was skeptical of everyone, but especially of newcomers. And even more especially, she was skeptical of newcomers who wore bandages on their arms in the same place she knew one of her dobermans had bit her intruder last night.
