"Agent Kim, please report to the boss' office."
The intercom blared throughout the building.
She placed down her papers and sighed, rubbing the back of her head with her hand before standing up.
"Is it that urgent?"
she mumbled, cursing under her breath silently.

"What did I tell you about swearing in the workplace?"
Someone asked, getting her attention. She sighed and smiled at her, stopping.
"I know already, Jisoo. But all meetings with the boss haven't went well."
"No, it's your attitude, young lady. Now hurry up."
Jisoo demanded, balancing a book on her shoulder.
She rolled her eyes and walked into the lift, pressing the button which wrote '43' on it.

The lift rose and a small ding was heard when the doors opened.
She walked down the wide hallways and knocked on a door which was made with frosted glass.
"Come in."
A voice said from inside.
Jennie sighed and opened the door, her eyes meeting the other.
"Agent Kim."
The boss said, standing up and bowing to her.
"Is there a specific reason you called me here Miss. Sandara?"
She asked.

The boss sat back down, intertwining her fingers into a ball and placing them onto the desk.
"Yes actually, have a seat first. I insist."
She looked at the seat and eventually sat down, fiddling with her fingers.
"Agent Kim, you've had many dangerous missions, am I right?"
"Yes, Ma'am."
She said quietly, looking down at her lap.
"You're our best agent, am I right?"
"I suppose."

"I was looking through the case files and stumbled across this one. Look into it if you will."
Sandara said, sliding a yellow file across the desk to her.
She picked it up and flicked the pages one by one.
"Doing this mission will result in a big pay rise and a promotion."
"I hope you don't mind me asking, why did you choose me?"
She asked.
Sandara chuckled and looked her in the eye.

"This mission has never been completed. Never."
"I thought we had a whole team on it.."
She mumbled, scanning through the pages.
"We did, but they left without a trace. Agent Jung looked into it and found nothing at all."
"Jung? As in Jung Hoseok?"
"Exactly."
"Please don't get me wrong, Mr Jung isn't the most experienced with computers. He once gave mine a virus!"
She exclaimed, throwing her hands in the air dramatically.

"Kim Jennie, do you accept the mission, or not?"
Sandara asked, her voice as cold as stone.
"I do, ma'am."
Jennie sighed, nodding.
A small smile crept onto Sandara's face.
"Alright, let's get into the details of the mission."
She said, making Jennie sigh.

"And now I have to go to America!"
Jennie whined, laying back in her seat.
"America?"
"Where's America again?"
"Lalisa did you fail geography?"
"So what if I did?!"

"GUYS!"
Jennie shouted, silencing the three girls.
She cleared her throat before speaking again.
"Anyways, I'm only doing this so I can get more money, not because I'm willing to."
Jennie continued.
"What's the case name?"
Rose asked, sipping her drink.
"Case 1879."
And all three of them went dead silent.
