----------------------------------------------------------------

This was Jihyo's first time back at the Academy ever since she started this assignment as Sana's bodyguard. There was something that made her feel so safe about the building, since it was where she spent most of her adult years. She dropped Sana a text as she promised, before grabbing a few coffees at the attached cafe and heading up the lifts to the upper floor where her junior was waiting.

“Dahyun-ah!” She called out, before a force knocked into her bodily. “Hot coffee!” 

Dahyun ignored her, taking the tray of drinks out of her hand but not letting her pull away from the hug.

“I missed you, unnie.” She said, taking a sip out of one of the cups. Jihyo smiled fondly, throwing her bags carelessly on the floor of the training room, waving back to a few other juniors who were excitedly greeting her.

“I missed you too. Still no new assignments?” 

“Nope, posted to intel branch for now.” The younger guard informed her, leading her to the benches where they could observe the ongoing training while talking.

“Oh? That’s convenient. I’m back to tap on intel for my case, so you can help me out, if you’re free enough.”

“Oh? That’s convenient. I’m back to tap on intel for my case, so you can help me out, if you’re free enough.”

“Yeah, of course I can. But isn’t your client Sana? What does an actress need intel for? Is she waist-deep in espionage, or?”

Jihyo made a face at her. “I promise you, if she was involved in anything even close to espionage, I would have hightailed out of this assignment a long time ago. Don’t need another consul planning assassinations in my hotel room.”

Dahyun shuddered when she thought about that client they had. That was a wild time, and she really thought jihyo as a client would have been a break for her senior, but guess not . “So what’s the intel for then?”

“More so investigation.” Jihyo stood up, patting her bag, and Dahyun understood immediately, ushering her to the dedicated floor in the building meant for research and other information collection purposes. They caught sight of the red digits on the digital wall clock, the 23:51 blinking at them. Still, even nearing midnight, the floor was packed with their colleagues shuffling about, clicking at computers or tapping away at giant touchscreens.

“Glad to see nothing’s changed, yall are still nocturnals.” Jihyo remarked, unzipping her bag atop a lit up table.

“That would imply that we sleep in the day, which we don’t.” Dahyun grumbled, taking a large sip of her coffee for emphasis. She helped to organise the mess of documents and papers on the table, and plugged the hard disk into the screen nearby.

“Alright, let’s get started.” They got straight to work, Jihyo swiping expertly at the screens to look for the information she needed, while Seulgi went through the logbooks, filling herself in on the situation.

They worked into the night, until a few of their colleagues tapped on their shoulders, dragging them away from work and into their dorms to rest. 

                     --------------

Between looking through hours of surveillance tapes and waiting for the tech department to return with results of their IP tracking, Jihyo took breaks by punching out her frustration on the practice dummies in the training room. Dahyun peeked into the large room, curiously eyeing the lineup of juniors just sitting and watching her, wondering why no one offered to join Jihyo. Ah, right, it’s Park Jihyo after all.
