โIโm glad you feel that way.โ He checked Moinโs posture, extending a hand and fixing a few imperfections on his uniform.
โPull your gun out. Be formal.โ In other words, be quick and donโt hesitate. โYou remember . . Check the barrel.โ
โAnd refer to me correctly.โ
Moin hated having one on one with Mideumi, especially when it felt like he was messing up, which he was.
Staring at his General, โThank you, Generalโฆโ grabbing the gun, putting it on his holster.
โItโs been very busy, Iโve havenโt gotten much rest but โฆ Iโm
โStare ahead.โ
A gloved hand curled around the handle sticking out of his holster. โYouโre going to borrow mine.โ
He waited for Moin to put the gun away, tucked into his own belt. โ. . .Youโre very forgetful today, Moin.โ
Mideumi grazed over his desk, putting a few files in a drawer and replacing his gloves before turning back to Moin. But his eyes didnโt meet his until he closed some distance between them. โI need you to focus.โ
Adjusting the hem of his left hand glove.
With a heavy huff, โWednesdayโฆ. Are you sure it was Wednesday? I remember Youngho was telling me that day that we were going out drinking, I would have remembered you telling me.โ
Following his instructions, โcan we do this a different day?โ With a nervous chuckle
His General pushed open a door, the one to his office. The scenery was a dark blue, the clouds in the sky were so thick it made four PM look like it was the late evening.
โI told you Wednesday. . . โ A pause as he pointed his comrade to the middle of the room โItโs Sunday now.โ
โGeneral.โ Following behind Mideumi, a bit impatient, wanting to hurry up this interaction. โAhโฆโ
He definitely didnโt recall of an inspection, โI rememberedโฆโ
With a click of the tongue, โwhen did you tell me? There was a lot going on these past few days.โ
( @My_Nob0dy )
โCome with me.โ The floorboard creaks with every other step, โWeโre holding a unit inspection. . .โ pausing for his subordinate to follow through the command. โI mentioned this on Wednesday, I didnโt think any if you needed a reminder.โ
(He sighs, but not too discontented. Hence he moves to lean over the bed and press a kiss into Haneulโs temple. ) Then donโt tell me. (Fingers curling into the tenantโs hair before pulling away completely)
What do you have planned for today, if itโs no bother asking.
( His back faced Youngho, the only indication of any disapproval was the downward tilt of The Generalโs head )
You misread the situation.
โฆ
Whatโs alarming is you making these assumptions purely on the gossip around the penthouse. Now,
Go find Wonshik.
Well what I realized is, yes heโs a detective but people are less fearful of himโฆ
Like Kyungho or Minjae, those two are suspicious donโt you think? Together?
Minjae knows your every steps he could provide KyungHo information thatโs why heโs been avoiding us
Mideumi gave a positive nod to his head, hand snaking around the back of the tenantโs neck, underneath his hair. โI will see you then.โ He pushed Haneul to use his feet, instructing to walk in front of him
โThereโs a hotel just down the street after a lightโฆ Do you understand?โ
With a slight nod, maybe it was best being alone, there wasnโt any point of him being there anyways โokayโฆโ
He was surprised how affectionate Mideumi was being in public but perhaps that was just because they were in the alleyway โI-Iโll see you tomorrowโฆโ
Both hands came up and smoothed down Haneulโs sleeves, falling away and folding into each other behind him. He gave a nod, โI wonโt. Tonight has only begun, if I did I would only serve as an interruption.โ
โYou will be safer away. Thatโs what matters right now.โ
The tension of Mideumi finally calmed down, Haneul felt like he could breath one Mideumi broke eye contact.
Exhaling once the general hands went to his chest, โwill you be there?โฆโ his eyes now on his โtonight?โ
Thereโs no need for it.
(Immediately dismissing the offer. )
Find him and arrest him. We donโt have time to play around with the detective.
Understood?
*slowly nodding his head *
Ah, Wonshik and I were getting along well, just give me a few more daysโฆ heโll tell me what I need to know itโs just it seems like heโs been spending more time with KyungHo then before โฆ
I can get in his head, I just need more time.
โโฆHereโs what youโre going to do.โ His hands slid away from Haneulโs shoulder and back to his chest, fixing up his collar and wrinkles of his shirt. โYou are going to sleep elsewhere tonight, I will send the money to you.โ
โAnd tomorrowโฆ You can tell me what happened.โ
His eyes were prying, practically unblinking. It was as if he was looking into the depths of Haneulโs own and putting together what Haneul had seen through them.
But, when the tenant gave up on the description, Mideumi finally broke contact. Looking off to the side.
He couldnโt get any rest especially when Mideumi pestering him, especially how close he was .
His whole body leaning against the wall his head tilted away once the General got closer โโฆ uhโฆโ with a loud gulp โH-he has long hair, older fortiesโฆโ
(Mideumi smiled, nothing genuine) Its our job to take information if it means we can use it (Tossing the board of papers down on a nearby surface, clashing with the wood sharply) โOtherwise, whatโs the point of our job
(Mideumi leaned over the surface)
Weโre going to arrest him
He said he has more information about KyungHo but was worried that you would take the information for yourselfโฆ
He seemed to dance around their relationship tooโฆ Iโve noticed they have gotten closerโฆ *with a heavy sigh * I believe heโs trying to protect him.
He didnโt break contact, in fact his hold on the other grew once reciprocated. The general comes close to the other manโs face, with a harsh whisper; โ๐๐ฆ๐ญ๐ญ ๐ฎ๐ฆ ๐ธ๐ฉ๐ข๐ต ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ๐บ ๐ญ๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ฌ๐ฆ๐ฅ ๐ญ๐ช๐ฌ๐ฆ.โ
These nights were always busy. Having soldiers patrol and enter homes of uneasy or hostile residents for a majority of its duration. Not to mention finding the tenants that more than suspiciously ran away from the penthouseโฆ
What could he do right now?
โI โฆ donโt know if it was a fanโฆ it had to be?โฆ or just some person that hates meโฆโ
Glaring at him โmy leg isnโt brokenโฆ I just need to restโฆโ looking up at the window, โโฆ. Maybeโฆโ
His eyes fell shut โyesโฆโ relaxing more then before โi think he heard you
