"Take rest for the day, you did a good job today." Jin tells the new agents once we got off the jet.

Walking into our office, I collapse onto the sofa.

"Tired huh?"

"We need to plan a training program specifically for this team so they can be better prepared for next time. We can't go out to help them every time." I complain.

"I know I know, I'll help the team out with that." Jin replies and sits next to me.

"Its been a while though, since we both got this much time together. Work has been crazy."

"Tell me about it. Ever since we took over, its us balancing everything out. Helping with different missions simultaneously. The only time we get together is when we look into what mission to assign and at home, which isn't a lot."

"Yeah, we just drive home and fall asleep." I laugh.

"How to people do this alone? I mean we are co partners, but normally it's just one person at this position."

"I know, I'm so thankful to have you Jinnie."

There is a comfortable silence for a while before its disturbed again.

"How are you doing now?" Jin asks out of the blue.

"Tired, you can see it, I'm literally almost asleep on this couch. Look." I play dead for ten second before looking back at him.

He laughs for a while before looking all serious again.

"I was talking about the whole Jungkook thing." Jin softly says.

I let out a sigh of annoyance because of the topic.

Everything was so different from a month ago. A month ago was when we caught Minjoon successfully and things with Jungkook ended. Jin and I were promoted as the head of the agency. After Minjoon was brought down, our previous boss decided, th agency was best kept in our hands. Life without Jungkook again was hard at first, but when you slowly start to adapt to the pain, it becomes a little bearable I guess-

"You've immersed yourself in work completely recently. I assumed it was to distract yourself, wasn't it?" Jin's words bring me back to reality.

"The strategy kind of works." I state in my defence.

"This isn't healthy. You'll burn out." Jin remarks.

"No I'll be fine."

"You know you won't. Even you know how you were a mess a month ago. You still are, you just hide it by over working. There has to be a healthy alternative to this." Jin pushes the topic.

"Time. Give me time. I'll be okay. I don't want to talk about this right now. I'll see you later, I had training to look into for the new trainees." I sigh and get up. I can see Jin shaking his head at the corner of my eye and I know he feels disappointed.

Not just in me, but in himself too. I know he means well and wants to help. But I'm not ready to face it yet. How can I? I can't.

It's funny how much my life and I've changed so much after less than a year with that man. A year ago, Haewon wouldn't even think of a man, much less let him access her heart.

Now here I stand, with him running around in my mind and heart. It's like getting over an addiction. Your body is so used to that substance that it has it's own withdrawal when you stop using it. Your body starts craving it, needing it to feel that high.

Jeon Jungkook, you were my drug, you were the reason behind my high and now, it's all gone. I don't know why fate hates me so much. It gives me things that comfort me and then snatch it away to laugh at my face.
