Chapter Six

"So, what was that all about?" Jisoo asks her older brother. Jaemin sat on his grey coloured couch, looking over the file in hands one more time.

After Jaemin was given his assignment, instead of taking a work from home day, he was given the week off to start preparations with his team and what loose ends he needed to take care of. He took Jisoo back to his apartment, letting her order whatever food she wanted and let her control the tv.

"A new mission," he says, throwing the manilla folder down on the coffee table, shoving his hands into the grey sweatpants he changed into upon arriving home. "I won't be able to spend time with you guys for a little bit."

Jisoo finished slurping her noodles, looking down into her lap, like Jaemin she also changed into her brother's clothes when they arrived home. "Jimin is away at college in America, and you haven't come to the house in a while, think I'm used to it by now."

Jaemin's heart broke a tiny bit at hearing those words from his sister. He'll admit, since graduating the academy and becoming the captain of his team, he hasn't sent much time at home, and he doesn't really know why. "I'm sorry I haven't been present; I have no excuse for it." He reaches forward, giving his little sisters hand a squeeze.

"You should be sorry. I suppose I better milk the shit of your absence before you disappear again." She says, scooting closer over to her brother and learning into his embrace, something she hasn't done since she was little.

"So, tell me what you're hiding." Jaemin leans his head on top of her hers, rubbing her shoulder. "Why weren't you at school?"

"No judgement... I was avoiding someone." Jisoo admits, feeling like it's about time she told someone about what has been happening.

Jaemin squeezed her shoulder. "You don't have to tell me details if you're not ready, I just have a few questions."

"Ask away."

"Is it a boy? Are you safe? Is he hurting you? Do I need to pay him a visit?" Jaemin blurts out as many questions as he can before Jisoo placed her hand over his mouth.

"I promise I'm safe and if he does anything too me, you'll be the first one I call." Jisoo reassures her brother. "Now, let's watch all the Twilight movies, we literally have all day."

"Come on, don't be a cheat!" Dalrae whinges out to her older friend Alyx, the two were playing pool at the King's Mansion.

Alyx hits another strips ball, pocketing it almost instantly. "I'm not cheating, bub, you're just playing against a master." The crimson hair girl sunk the eight ball, winning the game.

"I am never playing this game with you again." Dalrae says, throwing the pool que on the table with a bit of force. Alyx leans against the black and red velvet table, giving Dalrae a stern look, her eyebrows slightly raised. Dalrae caught her gaze, immediately picking up the que and placing it back in the stand.

Alyx smiles at her younger friend, knowing that she was just frustrated with losing a game to her leader. The young Mafia boss cleans up the pool balls and places her que back on the rack, she finds her way upstairs and into her brother's office.

Mark sat in his fabric chair, black shirt tucked into his baggy leather pants that were also tucked into his boots. He was reading through some papers while, one hand running through his powder blue hair. "What ya looking at?" Alyx asks her brother, sitting in the chair across from him and throwing her feet up on the desk.

"Just stuff for Neo Knights." He says, using his free hand to knock her shoes from his desk. Alyx watched as his eyebrows furrowed together and his right leg tapped uncontrollably.
