Days after days, months after months, and it's almost a year now they are working together as Sapphire Tiger.

They have done a lot of missions together as five, three, or even just a pair as a result of the reasons why they have a deeper relationship with each other.

Even though it's still running around as a 'co-workers' thing, the three of them can finally understand it develops into something more than that.

There is comfort between the five of them or even with one and another.

Elio, who is the one that only can feel comfortable around Sapphire, now can slowly feel the same with others but it's still different when it's just him and Sapphire.

The bonds that they shared right now is something that Elio never expected to have in the first place.

The view, atmosphere in the room, their activities together in the building or on missions never feel or look this lively and fun like this before.

It's already night where the five of them have just finished their mission and are entering their shared room.

"Wah!" Sapphire lets out a sigh of relief and satisfaction as she flops her body on the couch, a new one that they just got by "free", "That was awesome!" she shouts loudly with her hands in the air.

"Be honest, how long have you guys been training?" Aquamarine adds in as he puts his coat on the jacket rack.

The compliment and question are pointing at the three of them who just showed an outstanding show on their mission.

It makes them look at each other for a few seconds as Elio just laughs it off and shakes his head lightly while heading toward his room.

"Well.. I suppose it's not about training, right?" Spec answers first and looks at Howl, waiting for her to add.

She smiles at him first and looks back at the other two.

"Genius is genius and that is what has been looking at our backs." Howl says as they both know that today's mission was successful because of Elio.

"But you guys didn't even say anything, he already responded! Isn't that cool?!" Sapphire gets back in to give another compliment.

"Well.. I guess he is always well prepared." Howl answers and walks to the kitchen area, tonight is her schedule to make dinner.

"Too well prepared if I could add." Spec says beside her and takes three of soju from the fridge.

"Agree. He knows exactly what is going to happen in our mission! Like a seer!" Aquamarine replies and sits on another couch from Sapphire.

When Sapphire remembers what date is today, she jolts and jumps a bit from her seat only to look at Howl who is preparing to make dinner.

"Oh! Today's dinner is Korean food!" She says excitedly and finally sits properly.

Howl the one who hears that only smiles at her and gets an idea ever since they have been doing these plenty of times already.

"Any request?" She asks while wearing her apron on.

"Hmm.." Sapphire puts her hand under her chin as she is thinking for a while.

And before she can answer that, someone already passes her first.

"Something spicy!" Aquamarine answers childishly "What's it called again.. Something with go... go... gochuchi?" as he is trying to remember the name of the ingredient.

"It's gochujang." Spec says and sits down beside him while putting down the drinks.

"Right! That one! Make something with it!" Aquamarine says excitedly like a child.
