surprised, by @cloudxmi
the last person she expects to encounter when she leaves the hotel is namjoon. having just finished the usual session with her former childhood friend, about to go back home in the wee hours of the night, he’s standing there, car parked, awaiting her arrival. a moment of shock takes over, paints her features -- he shouldn’t be here.
why is he here? in all the years of sneaking out to meet weijun, she doesn’t recall him ever following her, wonders now how long he’s been doing that and how much he actually knows. she knows he’s no brainless or mindless little tool by her side, quite clever and highly skilled.
“namjoon.” she says flat and monotone, as if she’s not taken aback by his presence, as if nothing has happened. “may i ask why you are here at this hour? i believe i have given you different orders.” the bag upon her shoulder is fixed, posture proud and regal, no matter the situation.
slender arms crossed along her chest as she stopped right in front of him, having to cant her head to lay her glance upon his features. he looks tired, she can tell. there is something weighing his mind and heart down, but she’s in no position to ask him about that. not here at least.
