"hey, ijin, i found a tiny camera."
"don't touch it." he hums, walking over to you with gloves in his hands and a ziploc back.
carefully picking up the item, he places it in the plastic back before securing it and placing it in his pocket.
"should we notify miss seoha?"
he shaked his head, "it would interfere with her work. we'll let her know after she finishes with her shoot. in the meantime, you watch over the entrance and make sure no one leaves."
you nod your head, "go see if there are any cctvs near the waiting room."

hours have passed by and ijin calls you to return to your posts, telling you of a plan to find hints about the person who installed the camera.
you stand alongside the asshole bodyguard, his eyes glaring holes at the both of you as you scoff inwardly and roll your eyes.
"why weren't you both at your posts this whole time? did you come here to play around?" he questions irritably, still having all the hatred of the world stores in his chest.
"we were surveying the area." you sigh out, not in the mood to deal with him.
"what?" he turns to you, forehead red with anger and teeth grinding, "you were 'surveying the area?' who do you think you—"
"GOOD WORK TODAY!"
thankfully the director cuts him off before he could continue, everyone bowing and complimenting their companions on the work today.
it was such a good mood, it was far too bad you and ijin had to ruin it.
"nobody's going outside." ijin announces, and he looks at you as if to let you continue.
"the police will be here soon, and everyone is to be investigated." you continue on, further deepening everyone's confusion.
"what's going on?" the celebrity in the room turns to you, confused about the situation herself.
ijin brings out the camera and it shocks everybody, disgusting cha seoha.
"there was a hidden miniature camera in the waiting room."
whispers fill the room.
"i've checked the cctc already, but the waiting room does not have a cctv at the entrance, so i couldn't check who installed it." ijin calmly explains, watching the disgust in her face grow.
"and why didnt you tell us sooner?!" kim cheolyoung barks out, trying to put both you and ijin into bad light.
"cha seoha didn't have to use the waiting room again, and we thought it would interfere with her work, so we've been waiting."
"also, no one has tried to look for the camera, and no one has left the building." you add, watching kim cheolyoung get even angrier and angrier.
he looks like hes about to explode
he tries to snatch the camera, but ijin quickly dodges.
"you little shit..what are you trying to pull?"
well obviously, you're just doing your jobs, but this man seems to think you're just two kids trying to screw him over.
"i think it would be better for the manager to take this." ijin hints that kim wouldn't do a proper job investigating on the camera but the idiot seems to not notice at all.
"give it to me. we'll work with the police to investigate this further." kim cheolyoung interupts before the manager could agree.
"alright. we'll leave it to you."
you inwardly face palm, wondering why this manager just trusts anyone, especially with the current situation.
the 'senior' harshly grabs the camera brushing past ijin, telling your friend to see him outside with a threatening tone.
you follow after them, but ijin shakes his head, signalling you stay and watch over cha seoha for the time being.
begrudgingly agreeing, you sigh before straightening your posture before turning towards your client with a smile.
"we'll find out who did this, so don't worry, alright?" you attempt to comfort her, and it seemingly works as she smiles and nods.
"it's tiring to have to deal with it, so i hope it all ends soon." she looks down, crossing her arms.
"well, it's time to head home. i assume you'll escort me back home?"
you give her a thumbs up, "yup, then ijin and i be back tomorrow to bodyguard you again."
──────⊱⁜⊰──────
"so you're saying we can't figure out who installed it right away." she sounds distressed, frustrated, even.
"they're saying they're investigating it, so i'm sure they'll figure something out." her manager assures, hands on the steering wheel and eyes focused on the road.
"but it's not certain. it even looked like they thought we were over reacting over a camera.." her anxiety begins to show as she continues to stare out the window, watching the passing buildings and cars.
"we'll look into it separately, so don't worry too much."
"..."
----------
"i'll drive you guys to the nearest station." the manager offers, but you shake your head.
"we'll be alright, we can go on our own."
he nods hesitantly, "then i'll see you tomorrow." with that, he gets in the car.
kim cheolyoung, who's sitting on the passenger seat glares through the tinted glass of the window, still pissed about what had happened today.
you wait for them to drive off before turning to ijin, "whats that guy's problem? we didn't do shit to him and he was such an ass the whole day." you sigh, voicing out your frustrations.
"are you okay though? he didn't injure you any further, did he?" you continue, patting down your friend's torso and watching his expression for any signs of pain.
ijin shakes his head, "no, you'd probably send me to my grave if i did let him hit me."
"right, you are." you wink before spotting cha seoha over ijin's shoulder, sneaking out her house with a hat and a face mask.
"oh, there she is, let's go guard her." you hum out, pulling your best friend along by the hand.
once you both reach your pace behind her, she flinches before turning around and greeting you both with surprised looks.
"you haven't left yet?"
"no." ijin's answer seems too cold so you cut in, "we were looking around the area."
"you two can go home, you know. i was just gonna go to the convenience store over there. am i not allowed to?" she points to the said store, face flaring in embarassment.
"you can do whatever you want. we'll just be here beside you to make sure you're safe."
cha seoha smiles before leading the way, humming a song you think you've heard once on the radio before.
