Third person pov

Present time... the morning after the marriage counselling session.

Lisa has a cup of coffee in her hand, she went outside to the front yard to get the morning paper. She was only in some white boxers and a white undershirt, with a bathrobe on top. She walks down and picks up the paper from the floor which the paper boy just delivered. The neighbour across from them, Chan, nods towards Lisa.

Lisa smiles and nods back as she walks back inside.

Jennie was making herself breakfast in the kitchen. She made herself some coffee. The distance between them is noticeable. Yet the both of them ignore the issue and just go on with their day. It's like they're playing the part. 5 years of marriage, they should know everything about each other, so they say. Jennie nor Lisa really don't know what they do when they're not in the house and out doing their "normal" jobs.

Upstairs in the couples washroom...

Jennie was brushing her teeth. Lisa takes off her bathrobe and hangs it on the hook but the robe falls on the floor. Lisa shrugs leaving it there. Jennie finished brushing her teeth. Lisa turns the water on. Lisa shakes her head as she runs her fingers through the water.

Lisa: babe, We got to get these filters changed.

Lisa finishes freshening up and the couple begin to get changed ready for their work.

Jennie: Sweet face, What did you think of Dr Lee? His questions were a bit wishy-washy.

Dr Lee is the marriage counsellor they're seeing. Jennie says as she gets a pair of heels from the closet. Lisa gets her white button up dress shirt.

Lisa: Yeah. Watch your arm hon...

Lisa says as Jennie was behind her and she was opening up her closet door.

Lisa: Not the most insightful.

Jennie puts her heels on as Lisa gets her blazer from her closet.

Jennie: And his office is clear across town.

Jennie says as her eyes were on Lisa. Tension is always between them nowadays. You can cut it with a knife.

Lisa: Well, you know the four o'clock means we hit rush hour. Not crazy about that.

Lisa smiles at Jennie as she leaves their walk in closet.

Jennie: So that's settled then, yeah?

Jennie says as Lisa turns the TV on in their bedroom.

Lisa: ok!

Lisa Calls out.

Jennie: ok

Jennie says softly

Jennie and Lisa finish getting ready and they head out together into their car garage. They head to their own respective cars.

Jennie: Dinner's at seven.

Jennie smiles at Lisa and Lisa nods.

Lisa: Yup. I'll be there... I mean Here.

They head inside their cars and set off together. They both halt as they're wasn't enough room for both of them to leave at the same time. Lisa let Jennie drive on first and Lisa follows behind. They both head off their separate ways. To "Work".

At big agent headquarters...

A young man called Yedam walks by heading to the bosses office. He was an intern.
