Bittersweet Crimes | Seulyong

Chapter 1

Yeri sat on the bench outside the club and looked out at the busy road. Cars were lined up everywhere and the sound of honking did not leave her ears for just a second. She tucked her hands in her pockets and leaned back on the bench, appreciating the small breeze that flew past her.

She turned her head a little bit to the right as she noticed a man sitting on the other bench beside her. She noticed him put his black briefcase beside him on the bench before folding a newspaper. A smirk crept up her face as she averted her eyes back to the busy road.

She inhaled the fresh air before reaching for the black briefcase beside her and standing up. She went towards the bench were the man was sitting and as he stood up she managed to knock their briefcases together, making them both fall on the ground.

She quickly reached for his briefcase as he reached for hers. The man nodded his head a little bit at her as they both stood up before parting their ways. She sat down on the bench and looked at the newspaper beside her.

"I see you."

Yeri looked up as she ran her fingers through her hair, noticing the two women coming her way. She cleared her throat before grabbing the newspaper and unfolding it. Pretending to read the news as a few people walked past, she swiftly grabbed the small zip lock bag that was taped on the paper and put it in her pocket.

She placed the newspapers back on the bench and grabbed the briefcase, making her way towards Joy and Irene. As she was nearing them, she inched closer to Joy's way, making their briefcases bump together, resulting in them falling to the ground, just as before.

"I'm so clumsy!" Yeri sighed when the three of them bent down, and as they switched briefcases, Yeri smoothly handed the small zip lock bag to Irene and then bowed to both of them and walked away.

Joy smirked as Irene went her way to the club while she headed to the hotel beside it. Her lips curled upwards at the guards as they opened the entrance doors for her and she walked into the lobby, feeling the air conditioner in the room cool her down from the heat outside.

She walked up to the reception and smiled sweetly at the lady behind the counter, "Son Seungwan," she stated and waited patiently as the lady typed something on the computer.

"ID please," the lady required and Joy showed her a fake ID she had gotten from Wendy.

The lady smiled as she returned the ID and gave her a key card, "room 506, level fifteen." Joy thanked the lady as she grabbed her key card and headed towards the elevators.

When she went into the elevator she placed the briefcase on the floor and pressed on her ear piece, "I hope the room you chose is as nice as the faked ID," she complimented as she took another good look at the ID before slipping it in her pocket.

"Don't worry, I hacked into the system and upgraded the room to a very nice suite for you." She heard Wendy tell her from the other line.

As the elevator doors opened she grabbed the briefcase and made her way to her room. "498... 500... 502... 504..." she stopped outside the room and scanned the key card on the door handle and opened the door.

"Not bad," she muttered and closed the door before enjoying the view of the city lights from the big windows. She placed the key card on the table and the briefcase on the floor before taking her jacket off.

She grabbed the briefcase and placed it on the king sized bed. "Let's see," she mumbled as she cracked her knuckles before opening it.

"Hey beautiful," she smiled at the sight of the parts of a sniper rifle. She quickly put the parts together and loaded the rifle, also admiring the weapon. "Another weapon to my collection..."
