Eun-bi and Kka-bi Day

It's been a week after the incident but Seung-ah never forget the morning after, when she woke up. She found the Royal guard Captain Jo Yeong sleeping at the couch which is too small for the captain.

Flashback

"Jo-daejangmin, Jo-daejangmin?" seung-ah try to wake up the captain. "What are you doing here? Why are you sleeping there? jo-daejangmin?" 

"Seung-ah? ah I came last night to....check, I.... I fell asleep. Wait, why did you get up? How are you feeling? You should go back to the bed, I will call the doctor." captain's worried questions to her.

"I'm fine. I'm fine. Captain." 

"Are you sure?"                                                                                                                                                                      

"Yes."

Seung-ah sat down across from the captain. there's a brief moment of silence until yeong spoke again.

"Sorry for being late." he apologized, "Ho-Pil didn't informed me immediately." Yeong said with slight irritation.

"It's okay, Good thing lady noh and lady Tae-eul are both safe." seung-ah said while smiling.

"Don't do that again. Do not put yourself in danger again?" yeong said seriously while looking at seung-ah softly. "It's my job to protect you. All of you."

"And you? who will protect you?" seung-ah asked worriedly.

At that moment Yeong couldn't understand what he was feeling.

End of flashback

Seung-ah has returned to work. It's past twelve noon and she's on her way to the cafeteria for her late lunch and there he saw Captain Jo with the twins.

"Noona!"                                                                                                                                                                                    "Unnie!"

"You're here, you are visiting your brother again?" seung-ah asked, obviously happy to see the twins again.

"No, we're staying with oppa for the meantime because eomma and appa are out of the country." Eun-bi answered.

"I see. How unfortunate." 

"Hey I can hear you." Yeong protested

"I was just making fun of you." seung-ah's teasing. "late lunch?" seung-ah asked

"I just fetched them from school" yeong answered

"because your late, that's why!" Kka-bi said

"Because I'm busy." 

"But you're always busy." Eun-bi commented.

Yeong let out a deep sighed. seung-ah felt sorry for the twins.

"Noona, we have a taekwondo class tomorrow, can you fetch us after our class? please?" kka-bi pleaded.

"Kka-bi, I already told you that I will pick you up tomorrow." Yeong said.

"That means we need to wait for you again for two hours." eun-bi's protest.

"wait 2 hours?! You let the kids to wait for you for two hours?" seung-ah asked incredulously.

"I didn't mean it, I could not leave immediately." Yeong reasoned.  Seung-ah gazed at him pensively and let out a frustrated sigh. "it's ok, I have no work tomorrow. I can fetch them after their class."
