"Yes, hyung?" Jake asks through the phone, raising his eyebrows as if the person on the other line could see him.

"I got the documents prepared here, do you mind going down to see it?" The person on the line responds.

"Can't you send it to me through my email like most of us do?" The latter says, sarcasm laced on his voice.

He heard the other sigh. "Just go down and see them. I'm too tired to process everything." Jake shakes his head in response and stands up, unlocking the door with the call still going on and his phone on his ear. "First, Heeseung-hyung and now you? Do we just ignore the fact that I'm a fucking flight director who was supposed to be the one commanding things to you?"

"Jakey, you know what? Shut up and make it fast. I don't have all time in the world, I have other things to do."

"Okay sir Jay. It's clearly my fault for having an employee complain to his boss for walking too slow." Jake replied to which he heard Jay laugh. "Sorry, just walk faster."

Jake did so and ended the call, walking down the stairs and searching for Jay's table amongst the many tables lined up, with workers either typing something on the keyboard or writing their signatures to confirm files from other centers. The latter did noticed how stressed and tired they all looked, the only thing keeping them up were the cups of coffee sat on their table that's with very high cholesterol from the sugar and caffeine from the drink itself.

He must admit, he really pitied them but also honored them at the same time. Though, they were working hard just like him, he felt a bit guilty for thinking that he was overworking them and that he was being a bit strict. Well, that's how their workplace is supposed to go, right? and he isn't the one who's making them do a lot of work anyways.

They applied for the job and knew that they would eventually have to work 24/7 with barely enough rest since they are working for one of the biggest mission control centers in America, which carries the job of checking for space crafts that's currently on space discovering something that would help the astronomy field and also crafts that are about to be launched anytime soon.

Jake's thoughts while staring at tired looking employees were cut off when he heard the familiar voice shouting his name. "Yah, Jake!" The latter was a bit flustered when the once noisy room went silent, people were looking at Jay who unintentionally made a very noisy remark and called to Jake in a very informal way.

Avoiding any skepticism, Jake jogged his way to Jay who's table was on the farthest side of the room, explaining why people would really look at him with such distasteful stares after distracting them. "Hyung, you didn't have to do that." Jake hisses.

"What?" Jay asks with his knitted eyebrows.

Noticing that almost everyone were looking at them, Jake dismissed them. "Please resume with your duties and I sincerely apologize for the loud noise." He announces before turning back to his friend.

"Hyung, next time you do that, it would've been better to wait til I come to you instead of shouting my name informally." Jake warns which was completely ignored by the older.

"Here were the documents and informations about the set and the agency from China told me that they have boarded an airplane already and are on their way here."

"Great, so how long would it take them to arrive?" Jake asks, putting his hand on the table as support and his other on his back.

"Atleast 15 hours so expect them to be here 5 am in the morning tomorrow."

"Ok, have you prepared a hotel that they would stay in for the mean time. You do not expect them to go directly to the center without unpacking and resting right?" Jake questioned, his tone was something you really wouldn't want to mess with since it was laced with pure profession approach.
