Night By You || Jensoo

Ch.1 - Seoul's breathe

Jisoo sat under the neon lights of the signboard with "Seoul's breath" written on it. Other than that, there was no significiant source of light around, maybe the dim light of the street lamp on the other side of the road, if it's worth mentioning. As she sat at the bench, behind her favourite bar's back, she lit her first cigarette of the day. It was a long day on top of it.

She just finished her 4th mission of the week and genuienly was trying to relax, since today was sunday, indicating tomorrow was her rest day, first day of the week. Jisoo loved mondays. Not just because it was her rest day, but also because it felt vivid to start a new thing, which was a week in this case.

As she stared at the empty streets of Seoul, cigarette dangling from one hand, other one gently laying across her thigh, she stole a few glances to the moon. The moon was glowing, although it wasn't really visible today because of the faint clouds. The fact just made the night darker. But Jisoo had no complains about it, the neon light that was struggling to keep itself alive was more than enough for her.

She came here to enter the bar, have a couple drinks and flirt here and there maybe. But the moment she saw the signboard with an inviting bench under, she couldn't help but sit on it. And now she didn't feel like going in, nor she wanted to go home. So she tried to find a way to entertain herself. The woman who's hair was a very dark shade of black, slowly took the phone from her pocket and dialed the last missing call back.

"Hey Lili, are you home?"

The receiver answered after a head shake, although Jisoo couldn't see her, that was just how Lisa was.

"Unfortunately not. As much as I would like to be laying on my warm bed right now.." She let out the faintest sigh.
"It's almost 4 am. Where the fuck are you? I was off for a drink at your house, well, couple maybe."
Jisoo ran her hand through her pitch black hair, frustrated by the news.

"I'm on top of the Namsan tower. Wanna come over cutie? " Lisa repositioned her sniper to a little west as she held her phone with her other hand.

Jisoo took a long inhale from her cigarette before answering the younger.
"Namsan? How did you even get there weirdo?"

"Well, prevent your jaw from crawling on the ground after I spill this but I kinda used a helicopter." As Lisa spoke she spotted her target coming out of the casino with two chicks beside him.

Hearing her, the older chuckled at her silliness.
"Climbing on a tower that is on top of a mountain just to keep a low profile, but using something as loud as a helicopter to do it? Paradoxical, I'd say." She puffed the smoke as she teased the younger, amused by her contradictious behaviors.

Just then, Jisoo heard a gunshot from the other line. Even though it was covered with a silencer, she could have recognize that sound anywhere.

"Status?"

"Unalive. It hurt my feelings that you even condescended to ask, Sooya." Lisa faked an offense. Getting up to stand on her feet, she knew if she stayed there longer someone would definitely notice her location so she hopped in to her mini-sized helicopter. Fortunately it wasn't making as much as noise as Jisoo thought and the sky was getting really dark, so hopefully it wouldn't give her away.

"The humility."
Jisoo chuckled before crushing the cigarette on the nearest trash.
Although she took hundreds of lives per year, she wouldn't toss her cigarette to floor. Trees would be sad by the action.

"Are you gonna head to the headquarters?"

"Yup, gonna report the mission. Wanna fetch up?" Came from the other line as Lisa started to lift off.

"Sur- Wait. You aren't going to come with the helicopter, are you?"

"What else was I supposed to do? Just get over with it, travelling above Seoul isn't something you experience every day, unnie."
