The Lieutenant(Sweet Home)

14. minor break

Third POV

Eunyu sat on the bed, near Minji's legs. The older woman was still unconscious, laying on the bed at the back of the security guard's old office.

Eunhyuk had immediately taken Minji into his care, examining every cut and bruise on her skin. He had said she had most likely passed out because of exhaustion and not lack of blood, so Eunyu felt like he was being a little over dramatic when he couldn't wrap bandages around Minji's arms without shaking.

Apparently, the blood that covered Minji's face was from a cut that reached from her forehead, over her right eye, and down her cheek. Eunhyuk assumed the cut was from a piece of glass.

Somehow, the cut didn't affect Minji's eye itself. She was incredibly lucky.

Bandages wrapped around the soldier's head and over the right side of her face. Eunhyuk refused to let Minji get an infection.

Eunyu sighed, reaching into her pocket to get support bandaids for her ankle.

She lifted up her leg, rolling down her sock, putting the bandaid over her ankle, but it wasn't placed properly. It frustrated her. Her ankle.

If it weren't for her terrible ankle, she could be able to dance properly. It would make all the money Minji and her brother spent on the lessons worth it.

But instead, they're offers of helping her proved futile. All because of a stupid injury.

It made her angry, annoyed, tired.

Eunhyuk entered the office, two trays of porridge in both hands.

Seeing his sister struggling with the bandaids, he put the trays on the table, kneeling down, "Let me."

He took the bandage from her hands, fixing it so that he could put it on properly.

Eunyu looked at him, noticing his glasses were broken, the temple completely unhinged from the lense frame.

She snatched the glasses from his face and the broken temple in his pocket. She took a bandaid, wrapping it around the temple and glasses frame, fixing Eunhyuk's glasses.

He squinted a bit, her actions blurry to him. After realizing what she was doing, a small smile made its way onto his lips.

But then he noticed something else. Eunyu's eyes and nose were red, like she was about to cry. He looked down, feeling guilty.

Finishing up the bandage on her ankle, he sat up, just as Eunyu wiped her eyes. She gave him back his glasses and he silently took them.

The calming silence enveloping the room, a silent apology between the two siblings was made.

"What the fuck..."

The siblings immediately jerked their heads to the woman laying on the bed. Eunyu stood up, "Yah! I thought you were dead for a second!"

Minji groaned, sitting up from the bed.

"Noona, lay back down-"

"Shut up." Was all Minji said.

Suddenly, Eunyu slapped Minji's shoulder, "Don't do that again! This idiot kept freaking out. If you die I'll kill you!" Then she stomped out of the room.
