Ryujin arrived with Chaeryeong at Lia's company. They walked in casually at the receptionist.

"we're here for Mrs. Choi." Chaeryeong informed the man behind the desk.

"yes, miss. I will inform her." he smiled at them and asked them to take the elevator to the highest floor.

The door opened and the elevator went straight to Lia's office. Ryujin walked in first followed by Chaeryeong.

"I didn't think you'll come today." Lia got nervous. "so... what do you wanna see?"

"your work today." Ryujin crossed her legs and fixed her glasses. "I wanna help you."

"are you really?" Lia walked over to sit in front of Ryujin. "you serious?"

"I sent my people on your departments to help them do better."

"already?" Lia leaned forward.

"jin will be here. He's one of the best I hope you learn from him."

After some more minutes of talking, Jin entered the office. He looks nervous. Fixed his suit and handed Ryujin some files.

"g-good evening. Here's the files. I made some strategies to help your... company." Jin cleared his throat.

"great." Ryujin stood up. "I will leave you with him." Ryujin put her hand on Jin's shoulder. Squeezed it a little. "Jin, you know what to do."

Ryujin then walked out with Chaeryeong. When she's already out of the building, she waited for her car. The company driver that used to drive for Jeongyeon brought the car to her. they went into the backseat and asked the driver to go.

"go slow. I wanna watch." Ryujin commanded. She looked at her watch.

As they drove slowly out of the company area. Soon, they heard loud explosions from behind them. They were continuous and somehow made the ground shook. They felt the vibration through the car.

Ryujin looked back, watched the tall building slowly collapsed. She let out a psychotic laugh, clapping her hands as if giving herself an applause. She then faced Chaeryeong, grabbed her chin, and gave her a long kiss on the lips.

Chaeryeong wanted to held her boss back but the pleasure wins over her. she accepted the kiss gladly and let Ryujin explore her mouth. She thought she's dreaming right now.

As they make out along the way, they realized that the driver drove them to Ryujin's mansion. They both got out of the car and continued to make out while walking sloppily to the front door.

Chaeryeong's back hit the massive door and Ryujin pushed it, supporting Chaeryeong in her arm hoping she could bring the business into the bedroom.

"Ryujin?"

They both stopped, noticed Yeji and Nayeon on the living room.

"I'm so sorry, ma'am, miss." Chaeryeong bit her lower lip nervously. She fixed herself and bowed to them.

"it's okay, they won't mind. Let's go." Ryujin grabbed her wrist and pulled her.

Chaeryeong pulled back her hand and excused herself.

"what were you doing? You're embarrassing me. We have a guest." Nayeon glared at her.

"looks like the guest didn't care." Ryujin fixed her glasses. Walked upstairs leaving the two.

Despite not being able to get laid, Ryujin threw herself on her bed laughing in satisfaction. For about two minutes, at the very least.

"fools." Ryujin rolled on her bed. She then saw Siyeon sat on her bed. "hey."

"are you that busy? You forget about me." She said.

"I am. I actually don't really need you right now." Ryujin stared at the ceiling.

"rude." Siyeon crossed her arms. "did you replace me with Yeji?"

"replace? Where were you when I almost killed her. you're supposed to encourage me."

"don't sulk like that. You know I tried to get to you. It seems like you grew up so fast. I guess I'll leave now. Good luck, Ryujin."

-

A few days later, Ryujin visited the doctor.

"doc?" Ryujin went in with a smiley face. That smile turned upside down once she saw her old doctor on the desk.

"good afternoon, Ryujin." Dr. Hwang smiled. "have a seat."

Ryujin rolled her eyes, sighed, and sat in front of her.

"I understand that you have a special relationship with my daughter. I won't allow that." She paused. "she won't be working on you anymore. I want you to stop coming here to meet her since it'll be a waste of your time."

"special relationship, you say?" Ryujin scoffed, fixed her glasses. "I can say that we're more than that. Can be. Are you afraid of me? You think I will hurt her?"

"I'm not scared of you, Ryujin. You're a patient. You should keep it that way. You're a genius. You can be a better person. I'm talking to you as an adult." Dr. Hwang sighed. "I don't know what you want from her but I want you to keep yourself away from her."

"as you said. An adult should be able to make their own decisions. Did you let her decide on her life?" Ryujin smirked a little. "you will never realize the potential that she has. She tried so hard to make you proud. Do you even aware of that?"

"I am proud of her. of what she became. You don't have to say a thing about that."

"are you proud of her career or... her will to heal and contain her 'sickness'?" Ryujin fixed her glasses and leaned back. "it's interesting to know her story. Not only from your point of view. She's wilder than you thought, doc. She'll do anything to make your ungrateful ass proud of her. Imagine what will she do if she's tired of your healing talk."

Ryujin then put her hand inside her coat as if wanting to pull out something. She noticed that Dr. Hwang got nervous. Ryujin stood up and walked around to Dahyun's back. Dahyun quickly grabbed the phone and pushed some numbers.

"nuh-uh." Ryujin said as she eyed her covered hand. She then pulled out her hand, empty, but in a gun sign. Put it on Dahyun's temple as she shut her eyes closed. "I will still see her. whether you like it or not. If she's not here tomorrow... pew." Ryujin pushed her temple, making Dahyun stumble a little. "get it? You or her, I haven't decided where should I put the bullet in."

Ryujin walked to the door calmly. Not looking back, she slammed the door.

-

When the night comes, Ryujin decided to visit Minnie at the warehouse.

"hey..." Minnie stood up, walked towards Ryujin and dragged her by the collar. She pushed her on the couch.

"someone missed me." Ryujin took off her glasses. She couldn't see clear but she knows her surroundings. Minnie started to sit on her lap and grinded herself on Ryujin. "it works."

"what?" Minnie tried to listen to her. "the bomb?"

"yes! I fucking blew the place up." Ryujin pulled her in for a kiss. Minnie struggled to keep up with Ryujin's pace since she's getting better on each meeting.

"holy shit." Minnie panted. "I wish I can come along."
