While Ryeon sat on the bench listening to Jun-woong complain, she noticed a figure approaching them and stood up.

Ryung-gu walked up to the two and glanced at both reapers.

"I'm back. Did you get a good look at her memories?", He asked to Ryeon.

"Oh, it was scary. We almost got trapped.", Jun-woong chipped in.

"And whose fault is that?", Ryeon said glancing at him over his shoulder.

"Sorry.", He quickly said stepping back.

"It must be rough.", Ryung-gu said to ryeon as she looked back at him.

"No luck finding it today either?", Ryeon asked.

"No.", Ryung-gu responded downcasted by his failure once again.

She stepped forward and placed a hand on his shoulder in sympathy.

"Let's get to work.", Ryeon said softly before releasing her grip on his shoulder and walking passed him.

Ryung-gu stood there for a moment with a downcasted look before glancing up at Jun-woong and then turning to walk away.

" What's that about?", Jun-woong said before walking to catch up with them.

However the trio paused in their steps once they turned the corner and stumbled upon two girls arguing with each other.

"Nabi-ah, I told you not to follow me here.", Sunny said to her younger sister.

"I didn't want to be home alone and I don't think Dad's in the mood for me right now.", Nabi responded.

"I'm not in the mood for you either.", Sunny said.

"I am gonna pretend you didn't say that because I am hurt.", Nabi said turning away from her sister before realising they had company.

"We have an audience.", Nabi said to her sister who proceeded to glance in the trio's direction.

The said trio were holding amused looks on their faces as a result of the sister's banter.

Sunny stepped forward and bowed to her co-workers flashing them a graceful smile.

"I'm sorry you guys had to see that.", Sunny said and then turned to Ryeon.

"I'm ready to work.", she said and Ryeon nod with a slight smile.

Nabi stepped forward and bowed as well to the group, scanning the group as usual before returning her gaze to focus on Ryeon.

"I hope you don't mind. I wanted to accompany Sunflower and maybe help you guys out as much as I can.", Nabi said to Ryeon who smile even more than before.

"That's fine with me but I'm not sure how you're going to get out of this one with your father.", Ryeon said.

"No worries ma'am he won't even know we are gone. He's not home.", Nabi said and Ryeon watched as both girl's smiles wavered a bit at the statment before returning to normal.

"Ok then, let's get to work.", Ryeon said placing a hand on each girl's shoulder before walking in between them.

The four then began to walk follow her in pairs of two.

Sunny walked to the left of Jun-woong at one end. While Nabi walked to the right of Ryung-gu at the other end.

"What's wrong with you?", Nabi whispered for only Ryung-gu to hear.
