After making yet another successful escape, Minji ran over to Yujin, who was patiently for her inside her parked Cadillac. As soon as Minji settled into the passenger seat, Yujin wasted no time in revving the engine and driving away from the restaurant. The tires screeched against the pavement as the car gained speed, launching them forward. "Man, but what a disaster!" Yujin spouted, her thick-framed glasses slipping ever so slightly due to the loudness of her voice. "Leave it to the D.E.B.S, you're in town a week and they're just all over you, grabbing–"

Yujin's rant came to an abrupt halt as she noticed Minji's silence. The girl was staring at her with a look that she just couldn't decipher. Confused, she asked, "What?" Silence. "Seriously, what is it?"

"I met somebody," Minji reveals. Tires squealed as Yujin put her foot on the brake, causing the car to stop. "I knew it. I mean it was a little weird, the thing about the dance, but I had a feeling you and Wonyoung were–"

Just hearing the woman's name sent shivers down Minji's spine as she tried not to recall the traumatic event that was her and Wonyoung's blind date. "No, no, no, Yujin," she instantaneously shook her head. "Wonyoung was a train wreck."

Yujin tilted her head, lips jutted out as she tried to process Minji's words. I mean, Wonyoung was the only other woman there who didn't instantly run away from all the gunshots that were being fired. "I don't get it."

"Alright, first of all, promise me you are not gonna freak out about this," Minji says, knowing Yujin can be over-the-top sometimes. Yujin nods as she gazes at Minji intently. "Who is it?"

"What do you know about a Danielle Marsh?"

"Danielle Marsh," Yujin paused, her brows furrowing as she tried to recall who the girl was. "The girl from the drug dealing operation?"

"No, not her."

"No," Yujin repeated, chewing on her bottom lip as she tried to piece together the faint threads of information floating around in her head. "Oh my goodness," she realizes. "Danielle Marsh. Blonde hair, plaid skirt?" 

Yujin watched as Minji's close-mouthed smile grew larger as she described the girl, which was all the confirmation she needed to know that she was right. "She's a D.E.B. Okay, not only is she a D.E.B., she is The D.E.B.! She is the perfect score!" She said as if she was warning Minji.

Minji rolled her eyes, "What's that supposed to mean?" she asked before making her way out of the car. Yujin follows suit and continues, "Danielle Marsh is the only person ever to get a perfect score on the SAT."

"Give me the keys, YJ."

"Are you listening to me? Perfect score means perfect spy," Yujin explained, hoping that her multiple warnings had been heeded. "She is their pride and joy, she is literally their poster smile."

Minji just looked at Yujin playfully, a small smirk playing on her lips as she spoke with confidence. "Yes, well, their poster child doesn't it yet, but she's into me," she shrugged nonchalantly, sneakily snatching the car keys from the latter. "You can't be serious..." Yujin facepalmed. "Would you say you're back on the horse?" Minji smiled tauntingly, walking past Yujin and into the driver's seat. "Where are you going?"

"Back."

The girl just groans defeatedly, pushing her glasses back up as she hurries to get into the passenger seat. "Fine. It's great," she says. Though the way she was speaking may make it seem otherwise, Yujin is a reliable and loyal friend of Minji, always there to back her up with 100% support.

"Can you set the GPS to the D.E.B.S' house?"

Minji shifted gears and accelerated the vehicle, navigating through the road. She turned the music up, filling the air with the sounds of love songs and the smell of fruit snacks, which she could never leave home without. The two hummed along to the lyrics, while Minji periodically stole glances at the GPS screen to make sure they were staying on track.
