The Heist | LOONA AU

Chapter 8

The crew all arrived at the warehouse and gathered around the center table. Haseul was still inside the bathroom trying to calm herself from punching the mirror in anger.

They were just sitting quietly while waiting for Jiwoo. There were sounds of footsteps heard inside the bathroom and they knew the former detective was pacing around.

No one wanted to say anything to make her angrier but it was weird. Yeojin stared blankly at floor thinking of a way to talk to her cousin. There was something going on with her and nobody knew what.

The door opens as footsteps were coming closer to them. A tired looking Jiwoo shows up and sits down in a chair. They didn't utter a word to her, only looked her way and Jiwoo knew it was bad.

Vivi wanted to go and calm the younger down but couldn't. The crew weren't close with each other enough to comfort one another. So as the oldest, she leans forward towards the table to get their attention.

"Guys look," They turn to her "When Haseul gets out, don't make her angrier than she already is. Let her talk about what went wrong today and don't ask stupid questions, alright?" She tells them firmly before leaning back into her chair.

They just stared at her with raised eyebrows and didn't say anything. It was weird for her to tell them that because from what everyone knows, they're not close. Gowon though, was smirking at the oldest knowing what's going on between them.

The bathroom door opens and it causes for them to straighten up in their chairs. Haseul walks out with a tired expression and stands in front of everyone. They gulp nervously as the former detective stares into their eyes.

"Who was that Hyunjin?" She turns to ask the black haired girl on the right seriously.

Hyunjin swallows hard "Uh that was um....s-someone I-i met....yesterday" She stutters out and shrinks into her seat seeing Haseul glare at her.

Nodding, the older puts her hands onto the table and leans on it "You told her your real name? From what I've read, you never reveal your identity to no one" A smirk forms onto her face.

They were confused seeing the look on her face. Yeojin being the bold one decides to speak up and ask her why she didn't look mad anymore.

"Haseul unnie, are you not mad?" She said it quietly so her cousin doesn't glare at her.

The former detective faces her cousin "Who said I was mad?" She asks her with furrowed eyebrows.

Everyone just deadpans and stare at her with their mouths open. Wasn't she just screaming at them earlier? They were definitely confused at how her demeanor can change so quick.

"Weren't you just glaring at her?" Olivia Hye pointed at Hyunjin asking.

Yves speaks up "And weren't you pacing around in the bathroom?" The crew were wondering what was going on.

Haseul chuckles amusingly "I was angry at how Hyunjin got caught but then I realized something. She met that girl just yesterday and somehow she couldn't form one single sentence without stuttering" She starts off while smirking at the said girl.

They were still confused but Hyunjin felt her cheeks heat up in embarrassment. If she knew where this was going, then she's gonna have to stop the older from explaining further.

"Of course no one could see her exactly but I swear that she was blushing!" Haseul exclaims with a wide smile.

Hyunjin lowers her head and the others turn to look at her. They wondered why she was telling them this. Yeojin thought her cousin has gotten a little crazier ever since she disappeared.
